One more for the D&L soundtrack

[rj_anderson]

Every time I heard U2's "Electrical Storm" on the radio it made me think of If We Survive for some reason, but the lyrics didn't really fit. This song, however, has a similar musical punch, and the lyrics are much more appropriate:

Bring Me To Life by Evanescence

I can see why a clear soprano voice might make me think of Maud, but the association between Snape and pounding metal guitar is not quite so clear. Ah, well.

For those keeping track of my incredibly slow progress on this project, the only other song I've found so far is Dante's Prayer by Loreena McKennitt -- though as with the above, it was the music that caught my attention first, and the appropriateness of the lyrics was pure serendipity.

Basically, I chose these two songs because they conjured up such strong and immediate mental images that I found myself frustrated by not being able to turn them into a vid. That's what a soundtrack is, for me.

Well, it makes sense to me.

Actually went out and bought the Evanescence single yesterday -- I'd been hearing mixed things about them for weeks, and your rec finally tipped the balance. And my response is: Squeeeee! More waily girl music with which to annoy friends and flatmates!

They do sound exactly like Joydrop, though, which is scaring me. I actually went and checked that it wasn't the same vocalist.
