Songs that Make Us Think of A Song of Ice and Fire

Has this one been mentioned already???
 

Blood and Roses by the Smithereens (from New Joisey no less). Very Lyanna, Rhaegar, fever dream stuff.

It was long ago
Seems like yesterday
Saw you standing in the rain
Then I heard you say

I want to love but it comes out wrong
I want to live but I don't belong
I close my eyes and I see
Blood and roses

Love flowers in the springtime
October we were wed
In wintertime the roses died
The blood ran cold and then she said

I want to love but it comes out wrong
I want to live but I don't belong
I close my eyes and I see
Blood and roses

It was long ago
Seems like yesterday
Saw you standing in the rain
Then I heard you say

I need your love but it comes out wrong
I try to live but I don't belong
I close my eyes and I see
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
Blood and roses
Blood and roses

Up thread I related 22 Acacia Avenue to Jeyne Poole. 

How about Total Eclipse for the Long Night? 

Flash of the Blade makes me think of Arya, and The Duelists fits with Khrazz, I think. 

Nice!  Flash of the blade for Ser Arthur Dayne too.

Love Total Eclipse for the long night as well.  It seems a good time to squeeze one in for LML seeing as that's his baby -- Moonchild [another great track]

Good work with 22 Acacia Avenue, I was pondering how to get that one in myself.  :cheers:

Easy one we missed - Melissandra -- Lord of Light  :)

Dead Skin Mask by Slayer for the Red Kings of House Bolton 

Nice!

Maybe also Pantera's Shedding skin for the Red Kings of House Bolton.  Sticking with Pantera......

I'm Broken -- Theon/Reek

Message In Blood -- Letters from Ramsey

Victorious by Wolfmother (could be Brienne, maybe even Sansa, and in the music video the protagonist pulls her sword out from under a rock a la Arya)

It seems the competition is riding on her tail
It seems that they were hoping she, hoping she would fail
The town has come to raise our guns to the sun
She will prove herself worthy
She will be the one
She will be victorious
And won't get the battle loss
Always-a mysterious
'Cause she will be victorious

 

Blue Eyes by Elton John (about the Others in general, or specifically about the Night's King and his Other bride)

Blue eyes holding back the tears
Holding back the pain
Baby's got blue eyes
And she's alone
Again

 

Gold Dust Woman by Fleetwood Mac (I see this as someone, maybe Brienne, singing this to Jaime about Cersei)

Rock on ancient queen
Follow those who pale
In your shadow

Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale
Up for sale

Well did she make you cry
Make you break down
Shatter your illusions of love
And is it over now, do you know how
Pickup the pieces and go home.

 

Geronimo by Sheppard (Jon with Ygritte in the cave)

And you rushed to me,
And it sets us free.
So I fall to my knees,
At the curtains of the waterfall.

Can you feel my love?

 

You Can Call Me Al by Paul Simon (Alliser Thorne)

A man walks down the street
He says why am I short of attention
Got a short little span of attention
And wo my nights are so long
Where's my wife and family
What if I die here
Who'll be my role-model
Now that my role-model is
Gone Gone

Oh, duh! Westerling...

I spent some 5 mins trying to connect the dots: J Poole > hips... kept drawing a blank and gave up. Another 15 mins and the coin drooped while I was in the shower! :lol:

Or maybe Daenerys singing to Jorah...

Can I do a silly one? (without that mean LM permabanning me?)

This just randomly popped up on my iTunes and my mind went to the (supposed) cannibals of Skagos.

Misfits- Braineaters

Hey hey hey
Brains for dinner
Brains for lunch
Brains for breakfast
Brains for brunch
Brains at every single meal
Why can't we have some guts
Hey hey hey

Brains are all we ever get
In this rotten fuckin' place, hey hey
Brains are all we ever get
Why can't we have a change of pace

Brains for dinner
Brains for lunch
Brains for breakfast
Brains for brunch
Brains at every single meal
Why can't we have some guts, hey hey

 

 

(ADDING: Oh great. Now 20 Eyes has come on and all I can think about is Bloodraven!)

Don't know if already posted:

Jaime (post capture):

The parts directed to another person can be seen as pointing to Cersei, but also to Jamie himself (and his sword hand). Imho the song fits him well.
