Character Theme Songs


Lord Conover

Recommended Posts

So I was listening through a playlist on my iPhone when it occurred to me that most of what I was listening to had a corresponding game of thrones character. Could you imagine what it would be like if real life songs played as character themes in the show? Feel free to make it as funny as possible. Here's what I've got:



Stannis Baratheon: Iron Man - Black Sabbath



Selyse Baratheon: My Wife - The Who



Arya Stark: Maxwell's Silver Hammer - The Beatles



Jaqen H'ghar: The Changeling - The Doors



Jaime Lannister: Creep - Stone Temple Pilots



Berich Dondarrion: Aqualung - Jethro Tull



Daenerys Targaryen: Stop Your Sobbin' - The Pretenders



Jon Snow: In My Time of Dying - Led Zeppelin



Robb Stark: Failure - Breaking Benjamin



Jorah Mormont: Only Wonna Be With You - Hootie & the Blowfish

LYANNA’S DEATH SCENE / “COME TO ME”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ifIJq0kKwI

From Les Miserables: “Fantine’s Death” with Fantine and Jean Valjean

[Lyanna is lying in a bed of blood, delirious, dreaming of her sweet prince]

LYANNA:

Rhaegar, why am I so cold?
Your son, it’s past his bedtime
.
He’s cried the day away
And soon it will be night.

Come to me,
Rhaegar, your light is fading.
I see your fiery star in the sky appearing?

Come to me
My love, your head against my shoulder.
How fast our time did fly away,
every minute colder.

Hurry near, for I will soon be dying.
I do hear winter, in the wind it’s crying?

There’s a snow that comes without a warning -
But I will kiss you a thousand times before it’s ever morning.

[Ned enters.]

NED: Oh, Lya, our time is running out.
But , Lyanna, I swear this on my life.
Lyanna: Look, Ned, where Rhaegar and his son play?
NED: May the old gods grant her peace evermore.
Lyanna: Promise me, my son?
NED: He Shall live in my protection.
Lyanna: A child of Winterfell?
NED: Rhaegar’s son will want for nothing.
Lyanna: Ned, you come from the gods in our tree.
NED: And none will ever harm the babe with me,
As long as I am living.
Lyanna: Promise me!
NED: Take my hand,
Lyanna: The chill grows ever colder.

NED: Then I will keep you warm.
Lyanna: Take my child, I give him to your keeping.
Ned: He’ll be sheltered from the dragon’s storm …
Lyanna: For my sake, please stay til I am sleeping
And tell …
NED: Jon.
Lyanna: Jon … (she smiles weakly) I love him.
And I’ll see him when I wake…
[Lyanna dies with a smile; Ser Arthur Dayne arrives.]

CONFRONTATION BETWEEN ARTHUR DAYNE AND NED STARK at TOJ

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykrB0YbvglAhttps

From Les Miserables: “The Confrontation” Jean Valjean and Javert

Arthur Dayne:

At last,

I see your black heart plain
.
Honorable Ned Stark
You will feel my pain!

NED:

Before you say one more word, Ser Dayne,
Before you take her to the Prince again -
Listen to me!
There is something I must do.

My sister leaves behind a babe, my blood.
As his uncle I must intercede.
Give me some time, that’s all I need.

Then I’ll surrender,
On my honor.

Then I’ll return…

Arthur Dayne (in counterpoint)

Men like you can never change!
Men like Robert can never change!
Lord Stark of Winterfell.
My duty’s to the Dragonlord -

Not Lord Stark
of Winterfell!

Dragonfire is all around -
Eddard Stark is crowfood now!
Dare you talk to me of honor?
Your sister is the price you pay.
Rhaegar’s blood is NOT a sin!
The baby prince will learn another way.

You know nothing of Prince Rhaegar.
He died a hero in ebon mail.
He wasn’t born from wargs such as you!
His son is a Dragon too!
You’d kill a prince, your sister’s son?
To extinguish dragonspawn.
To me, Ned Stark,
Taste my Dawn!

NED (in counterpoint)

Honor is what I must do -
You know nothing of her life

All she did was love and wed.
Look at her!
You see her dead.
Her last wish will be done.
No one must know –
Dragon or Stag – to prevent a mortal flood.
In the North
The Ice is our blood.
I warn you, Ser Arthur Dayne.
I am Wolf,
and half insane.
My grief is great indeed.
Winterfell – I am no liar -
Wants no part of smoke and fire!
I am warning you, Ser Dayne -
There is a beast deep in me.
Its rage has not been spent.
There is nothing I won’t dare.
If I have to kill you here!
If you touch one Stark brown hair!
I’ll do what must be done!

Go ahead, cast the dice!
To me, Ser Dayne. Kiss my Ice.

[Ned and Ser Dayne come to blows; Ned’s company kill the Kingsguard at TOJ. After, Ned turns to Lyanna]

NED: And this I swear to you , I never lied.
Howland Reed: Now the truth must we always hide.

“No Good Deed Goes Unpunished”

from the musical Wicked, sung by Elphaba as she tries to cast a spell to save her lover Fiyero’s life – [she does, but he turns into a scarecrow];

Likewise, Ned sings “No Good Deed Goes Unpunished” in prison, after Varys visits to advise him to confess to treason to save Sansa’s life:

Ned as ELPHABA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I8pneJkxBY

(screamed) Sansa!

(Ned prays a song of the Children of the Forest, in a language long forgotten but remembered in the trees, in the truths buried in Winterfell.)

[ Ned sings] Eleka nahmen nahmen
Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen
Eleka nahmen nahmen
Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen

Let her blood not be spilled,

Let it not fall like rain!

When they beat her,

Let her not be killed.

Let her bones never speak

No matter how they try

To destroy the Starks

Never let them die!

Never, ever let them die!

Eleka nahmen nahmen
Ah tum ah tum eleka nahmen
Eleka nahmen nahmen
Ah tum ah tum eleka: eleka:

What good is this magic?

I don’t even know the Tongue I am speaking!

I am imprisoned with no tricks to try!

Sansa? Where are you?

Are you already dead and bleeding?

My daughter is one more casualty for me to add to my generous supply:

No good deed goes unpunished
No act of honor goes unresented
No good deed goes unpunished

They are my new family words!

All my good intentions
are like Words in the Wind!

No good deed

Goes unpunished!

Robert.

Lyanna.

Jon Aryn..

Sansa -

My sweet Sansa!

All these bad dreams

Haunt me and it hurts

Too very much too ever mention.

Was I really seeking HONOR?

Or just admiration and attention?

If these were my motives –

When I look with my grey eye -

If this is all my honor is –

If my purposes are selfish - then

Maybe that’s the reason why!

No good deed goes unpunished
All helpful urges should be prevented.
No good deed goes unpunished

This is ill done -
So be it.
Let all the Seven Kingdoms be agreed
I'm a traitor through and through –

If I cannot succeed,
Sansa, in saving you,
I do promise,

“Winter is Coming” –

No good deed
Will I attempt to do again!
Ever again!
No acts of honor
Will I do again!”

Tell me these Lyrics from Can't you See by Marshall Tucker Band don't embody Jorah Mormont

Can't you see, whoa, can't you see

What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, she been doin' to me

I'm gonna find me
A hole in the wall
I'm gonna crawl inside and die
'Cause my lady, now
A mean ol' woman, Lord
Never told me goodbye

“DEFYING GRAVITY” FROM WICKED / WINTER

Featuring

Bran Stark and Lord Brynden Rivers, aka Blood Raven

As Glinda and Elphaba

[bran, Hodor, and the Reeds flee to Bloodraven’s cave in search of the three-eyed crow. They are in the warded cave north beyond the Wall, the entrance guarded by a murder of ravens]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3g4ekwTd6Ig

BLOODRAVEN

(Whispered words)

Welcome to my weirwood throne, Brandon Stark!

Stay calm.

Don’t fly off yet.

BRAN

(Spoken)

I hope you're happy

I hope you're happy now

(sung)

I hope you're happy!

I hope you'll be happy now that I

Will live with the three-eyed crow forever

BLOODRAVEN

You Bran, who are so clever.

BRAN

I hope you're happy

I hope you're happy, too

I hope I have pleased you

Finding you was my ambition

I am ready to sit in submission.

BLOODRAVEN

Thou we can imagine

We are happy to meet right now!

(Whispered words)

Bran, listen to me.

Pick a bird and fly

Before it is too late

(Sung)

You are now with your Wizard

What you traveled for and waited for

You can have all the skins

you ever wanted:

BRAN

(spoken)

I know:

(sung)

And I do want it?

Yes- I want it

Evermore

Some kind of warg is in me

Something is not the same

BLOODRAVEN

You’re now playing by the rules

Of my own THRONE game

Too late for second-guessing

Too late to go back to DIE

It's time to trust your instincts

Close your eyes: and fly!

BOTH

It's time to FLY

Defying gravity

BLOODRAVEN

Now Bran try!

Defying gravity

And I won’t pull you down!
BRAN

I do not understand?

Am I having delusions of grandeur?

BLOODRAVEN

Accept no limits

‘cause others says they're so.

Some things we cannot change

But till you try, you’ll never know!

BRAN

“Too long I've been afraid of

Losing love I guess I've lost

Well, if that's love

It comes at much too high a cost!”

BLOODRAVEN

We’d sooner try

Defying gravity

Kiss us goodbye

We’re defying gravity

And you can't pull us down!

(Whispered words)

Bran - come with me.

Think of all the good that we could

do:

together.

BOTH

(sung)

Unlimited

Together we're unlimited

Together we'll be the greatest team

There's ever been,

Brandon,

Dreams, the way we planned 'em
BRAN

If we work in tandem:

BOTH

There's no flight we cannot win

Just you and I

Defying gravity

With you and I

Defying gravity

They'll never bring us down!

BLOODRAVEN

(Whispered Words)

Bran, you’re trembling

Wrap these skins around you

BOTH

I really hope we get it

I hope we’re happy in the end.

And I am so happy, you’re my friend.

[bloodraven gets out of his weirwood throne; he extends his hand to Bran, who takes it]

BLOODRAVEN

Well? Are you coming?
BRAN

I think I’m happy

Now that I’m choosing this

BLOODRAVEN

(Whispered Words)

Me too

BOTH

(Sung)

I hope it brings us bliss.

I really hope we get it

And we don't live to regret it!

I hope we’re happy in the end

I hope we’re happy, my friend:

(Both join hands, each mounts a raven and flies to the ceiling of the stage)

BRAN

So if you care to find me

Look to the Northern sky!

As someone told me lately:

"Brandon deserves the chance to fly!”

BLOODRAVEN

And if you’re flying solo

At least you’re flying free.

To those who'd ground you and me

Take a message back to see

BOTH

Tell them how we’re

Defying gravity

We’re flying high

Defying gravity

BRAN

(To Bloodraven)

And soon I'll match you in renown

BOTH

And nobody in all the kingdoms

No King that there is or was

Is ever gonna bring us down!

Yes, we’re happy!

NOONE will bring us down!

Lyrics of Black Magic Woman

Got a Black Magic Woman.
Got a Black Magic Woman.
I got a Black Magic Woman,
Got me so blind I can't see;
That she's a Black Magic Woman
she's trying to make a devil out of me.

Don't turn your back on me, baby.
Don't turn your back on me, baby.
Yes, don't turn your back on me, baby,
Stop mess around with your tricks;
Don't turn your back on me, baby,
You might just wake up my magic sticks.

Got your spell on me, baby.
Got your spell on me, baby.
Yes, you've got your spell on me, baby,
Turnin' my heart into stone;
I need you so bad,
Magic Woman I can't leave you alone.

It's like Fleetwood Mac wrote this for Stannis
