A few yards from her tent was a bed of soft grass, and it was there that Dany drew him down. When he tried to turn her over, she put a hand on his chest. "No," she said. "This night I would look on your face." I'm glad you're home Well, did you really miss me? I guess you did by the look in your eye (look in your eye, look in your eye) Well lay back and relax while I put away the dishes Then you and me can rock a bell You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell The night is young and full of possibilities Well come on and let yourself be free My love for you, so long I've been savin' Tonight was made for me and you Gendry to Arya—Treasure by Bruno Mars—What? Bruno Mars in a disco musical? He has reintroduced disco into modern pop. This video is heavily influenced by the Trampps Disco Inferno and Earth, Wind and Fire's Let's Groove https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lrle0x_DHBM "Little one," Greenbeard answered, "a peasant may skin a common squirrel for his pot, but if he finds a gold squirrel in his tree he takes it to his lord, or he will wish he did." "I'm not a squirrel," Arya insisted. "You are." Greenbeard laughed. "A little gold squirrel who's off to see the lightning lord, whether she wills it or not. He'll know what's to be done with you. I'll wager he sends you back to your lady mother, just as you wish." … There were a dozen men living in the vault beneath the sept, amongst cobwebs and roots and broken wine casks, but they had no word of Beric Dondarrion either. Not even their leader, who wore soot-blackened armor and a crude lightning bolt on his cloak. When Greenbeard saw Arya staring at him, he laughed and said, "The lightning lord is everywhere and nowhere, skinny squirrel." "I'm not a squirrel," she said. "I'll almost be a woman soon. I'll be one-and-ten." … "Such an angry squirrel," murmured Greenbeard. Baby squirrel, you's a sexy mother-f***** Gimme your, gimme your, gimme your attention, baby I gotta tell you a little somethin' about yourself You're wonderful, flawless, oh, you're a sexy lady But you walk around here like you wanna be someone else I know that you don't know it, but you're fine, so fine Oh girl, I'm gonna show you when you're mine, oh, mine Treasure, that is what you are Honey, you're my golden star You know you can make my wish come true If you let me treasure you, if you let me treasure Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl, you should be smiling A girl like you should never look so blue You're everything I see in my dreams I wouldn't say that to you if it wasn't true Robb declared KitN/War of the Five Kings Montage—Boogie Wonderland by Earth, Wind and Fire (think I spotted the Rainbow Guard in there…) Dancing is a euphemism for fighting/war in ASOIAF so a Boogie Wonderland would be... Dance, boogie wonderland Ha, ha, dance Boogie wonderland Midnight creeps so slowly into hearts of men who need want more than they get need Daylight deals a bad hand to a woman who has laid too many bets The mirror stares you in the face and says "Baby, uh, uh, it don't work" You say your prayers though you don't care You dance and shake the hurt Dance, boogie wonderland Ha, ha, dance Boogie wonderland Sounds fly through the night I chase my vinyl dreams to Boogie Wonderland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three-Fingered Pete Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 There's two songs that do it for me. For just general epic-ness, high quest mood-ness and imagery: Achilles Last Stand by Led Zeppelin (to be fair, I also see Tolkien imagery when I listen to this song). Achilles Last Standby Led Zeppelin - It was an April morning when they told us we should go As I turn to you, you smiled at me How could we say no? Oh, the fun to have To live the dreams we always had Oh, the songs to sing When we at last return again Slipping off a glancing kiss To those who claim they know Below the streets that steam and hiss The devil's in his hole Oh, to sail away To sandy lands and other days Oh, to touch the dream Hides inside and never seen, yeah Into the sun, the south, the north At last the birds have flown The shackles of commitment fell In pieces on the ground Oh, to ride the wind To tread the air above the din Oh, to laugh aloud Dancing as we fought the crowds, yeah To seek the man whose pointing hand The giant step unfolds With guidance from the curving path That churns… To seek the man whose pointing hand The giant step unfolds With guidance from the curving path That churns up into stone If one bell should ring In celebration for a king So fast the heart should beat As proud the head with heavy feet, yeah Days went by when you and I Bathed in eternal summer's glow As far away and distant Our mutual child did grow Oh the sweet refrain Soothes the soul and calms the pain Oh Albion remains Sleeping now to rise again Wandering and wandering What place to rest the search? The mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth For the mighty arms of Atlas Hold the heavens from the earth From the earth... The other song is right in my location tag: Yours Is No Disgrace by Yes. For some reason it always makes me think of Arya (mainly), but it fits other people's situations too. Yours Is No Disgraceby Yes Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place If the summer change to winter, yours is no disgrace Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far Lost in losing circumstances, that's just where you are Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place If the summer change to winter, yours is no Yours is no disgrace Yours is no disgrace Yours is no disgrace Death defying, mutilated armies scatter the earth Crawling out of dirty holes, their morals, their morals disappear Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human, silly human race On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place If the summer change to winter, yours is no Yours is no disgrace Yours is no disgrace Yours is no disgrace Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far Lost in losing circumstances, that's just where you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with all of the alternate identities, Arya referring to herself in the third person isn’t all that weird. AGOT Arya II "Just so. Now we will begin the dance. Remember, child, this is not the iron dance of Westeros we are learning, the knight's dance, hacking and hammering, no. This is the bravo's dance, the water dance, swift and sudden. All men are made of water, do you know this? When you pierce them, the water leaks out and they die." Rhythmatic, acrobatic She a dynamite attraction At the drop of a coin she comes alive, yea She knows what she's doing She's super bad now She's geared to really blow your mind Dancing, dancing, dancing She's a dancing machine Cersei’s curious brand of girl-power and her rivalry with Tyrion for power in KL—Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars More modern pop with heavy disco funk influences. These guitar riffs and the brass are so disco funk not to mention the video channels the 70s. I feel like Don't believe me, just watch and Girls hit your hallelujah is what Cersei is all about. ASOS Tyrion IX "He may indeed crown Tommen, here in King's Landing. Which is not to say that my brother may not crown Myrcella, down in Sunspear. Will your father make war on your niece on behalf of your nephew? Will your sister?" He gave a shrug. "Perhaps I should marry Queen Cersei after all, on the condition that she support her daughter over her son. Do you think she would?" Never, Tyrion wanted to say, but the word caught in his throat. Cersei always resented being excluded from power on account of her sex. If Dornish law applied in the west, she would be the heir to Casterly Rock in her own right. She and Jaime were twins, but Cersei had come first into the world, and that was all it took. By championing Myrcella's cause she would be championing her own.

Springwatch Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I've been listening to Blondie and loving it - I'd give 'Dreaming' to Sansa because it has the energy she needs, and the words are lovely too... "Dreaming" When I met you in the restaurant You could tell I was no debutante You asked me what's my pleasure A movie or a measure? I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming Dreaming is free I don't want to live on charity Pleasure's real or is it fantasy? Reel to reel is living rarity People stop and stare at me We just walk on by - we just keep on dreaming Feet feet, walking a two mile Meet meet, meet me at the turnstile I never met him, I'll never forget him Dream dream, even for a little while Dream dream, filling up an idle hour Fade away, radiate I sit by and watch the river flow I sit by and watch the traffic go Imagine something of your very own Something you can have and hold I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming Dreaming is free Dreaming Dreaming is free Dreaming Dreaming is free While we're at it, I'd dedicate 'Atomic' to Cersei (naturally). The song that reminds of Arya is 'Halo' by Texas; partly because of the lyrics, but also it has this tone of stellar triumph mixed with tragedy. Arya's story makes me sad. "Halo" Bright light city You're her religion Superstars in their own private movie Play just like children Lies that take her Places she's never seen The kiss and tell of it all To her it seems so obscene She's so pretty Her hair is a mess We all love her To that we confess She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her For their blindness She sees much further Like on a wide-screen viewing Going down on her She's so pretty Her hair is a mess We all love her To that we confess She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her She believes in everything She believes in nothing, in everything Halo, halo, halo, halo Halo, halo, halo, halo She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her She believes in everything She believes in nothing, in everything She believes in everything She believes in nothing, in everything For she has a halo She has a halo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
