bgona Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 It's funny you mention that, I believe GRRM actually wrote a bit for the 80s television series Beauty and the Beast. Maybe Sandor and Sansa is a little homage to that theme. Probably not. Ha! But it's definitely interesting that it came up in this thread. :] You are killing me!! I don´t know why but I can still remembering that Beast (almost with lion face) and Beauty too 80s!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romantic Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 This is a Sansa POV song about Sandor (who maybe overly fond of his sword) and a couple of other favourites. That don't impress me muchI've known a few guys who thought they were pretty smart (yeah, I'm talking about you Tyrion Lannister)But you've got being right down to an artYou think you're a genius-you drive me up the wallYou're a regular original, a know-it-all ('cept about women)Oh-oo-oh, you think you're specialOh-oo-oh, you think you're something elseOkay, so you're a rocket scientist (dragon biologist)That don't impress me much (you're still a Lannister)So you got the brain but have you got the touchDon't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright (for a Lannister)But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the nightThat don't impress me muchI never knew a guy who carried a mirror in his pocket (a mirror behind his shield)And a comb up his sleeve-just in case (and a comb on his pommel-just in case)And all that extra hold gel in your hair oughtta lock it'Cause Heaven forbid it should fall outta placeOh-oo-oh, you think you're specialOh-oo-oh, you think you're something elseOkay, so you're Brad Pitt (Jaime Lannister)That don't impress me muchSo you got the looks but have you got the touch (for anyone apart from your sister)Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright (for a kingslaying Lannister)But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the nightThat don't impress me much(Sandor's bit)You're one of those guys who likes to shine his machine (sharpen his sword)You make me take off my shoes before you let me get in (wear gloves before I touch your sword)I can't believe you kiss your car (sword) good nightC'mon baby tell me-you must be jokin', right!Oh-oo-oh, you think you're specialOh-oo-oh, you think you're something elseOkay, so you've got a car (sword- anyway my dad's sword Ice was bigger!)That don't impress me muchSo you got the moves but have you got the touchDon't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright (for an alcoholic killer)But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the nightThat don't impress me muchYou think you're cool but have you got the touchDon't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alrightBut that won't keep me warm on the long, cold, lonely nightThat don't impress me muchOkay, so what do you think you're Elvis or something...

romantic Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 I thought this song was quite touching and applicable to how Sandor helped Sansa in feeling less alone. Obviously he could have done much better in his verbal and physical interaction with her but he's fairly clueless about relating to girls/women. The big hero moments were great (winning the tournament, saving her from the mob) but the small moments were moving as well (backing her up when she lied to Joffrey, giving her advice, not assaulting her when the rest of the Kinsguard were, etc.). Sometimes just knowing you're not completely alone can make a big difference... "Hero" by Superchick No one sits with him, he doesn't fit inBut we feel like we do when we make fun of himCause you want to belong, do you go along?Cause his pain is the price paid for you to belongIt's not like you hate him or want him to dieBut maybe he goes home and thinks suicideOr he comes back to school with a gun at his sideAnd a kindness from you might have saved his life[Tag:]Heroes are made when you make a choice[Chorus:]You could be a hero - heroes do what's rightYou could be a hero - you might save a lifeYou could be a hero- you could join the fightFor what's right, for what's right, for what's rightNo one talks to her, she feels so alone (sounds like Sansa)She's in too much pain to survive on her ownThe hurt she can't handle overflows to a knifeShe writes on her arm and wants to give up her lifeEach day she goes on is a day that she's braveFighting the lie that giving up is the wayEach moment of courage her on life she savesWhen she throws the pills out a hero is madeHeroes are made when you make a choice[Tag][Chorus]No one talks to him about how he livesHe thinks that the choices he makes are just hisDoesn't know he's the leader with the way he behavesAnd others will follow the choices he's madeHe lives on the edge, he's old enough to decideHis brother who wants to be him is just nineHe can do what he wants because it's his rightThe choices he makes change a nine-year-old's life[Tag][Chorus][Rap]Little Mikey D. was the one in class who everyday got brutally harassedThis went on for years until he decided that never again would he shed another tearSo he walked through the door, grabbed a four-four out of his father's dresser drawerAnd said I can't take life no moreAnd like that life can be lostBut this ain't even about thatAll of us just sat back and watched it happenThinkin' it's not my responsibility to solve a problem that isn't even about meThis is our problemThis is just one of the daily scenarios which we choose to close our eyesInstead of doing the right thingIf we make a choice and be the voice for those who won't speak up for themselvesHow many lives would be saved, changed, and rearrangedNow it's our time to pick a sideSo don't keep walkin' byNot wantin' to intervene'cause you wanna exist and never be seenSo let's wake up and change the worldOur time is now[Chorus:]You could be a hero (Our time is now)Heroes do what's rightYou could be a hero (Our time is now)You might save a lifeYou could be a hero, you could join the fight (Our time is now)For what's right, for what's right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A beautiful song.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW71En5Pa5s&feature=fvwrelAgainst All Odds lyricsHow can I just let you walk awayjust let you leave without a trace?When I stand here taking every breath with youOohyou're the only one who really knew me at all.How can you just walk away from me when all I can do is watch you leave''cos we shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears.You're the only one who really knew me at all.So take a look at me nowwellthere's just an empty spaceAnd there's nothing left here to remind meJust the memory of your face.Ohtake a look at me nowthere's just an empty spaceAnd you coming back to me is against the oddsAnd that's what I've got to face.I wish I could just make you turn aroundturn around and see me cry.There's so much I need to say to youso many reasons why.You're the only one who really knew me at all.So take a look at me nowwellthere's just an empty spaceAnd there's nothing left here to remind meJust the memory of your face.Now take a look at me now'cos there's just an empty spaceBut to wait for you is all I can do and that's what I've got to face.Take a good look at me now'cos I'll still be standing hereAnd you coming back to me is against all oddsIt's the chance I've got to take. - Take a look at me now.

If There Was A Time by Harum Scarum(Hess/Lesperance)I try to talk to the cloudsBut they spill out the rainNow I'm truly convincedThey've got nothing to sayWill I ever learnIs there something wrong with my brainNow the weeds are on fireAnd they're burning awayLast time I checked I'm at 34 sinsAnother won't matter 'cause I'm never gonna winHoping now I'm on a road that I can changeCause I'll changeIf there was a time when I needed to prayThat the cold wind blows awayIf there was a time when I needed a placeTo wipe the guilt free from my faceIf there was a time for mercy in my lifeIt's right nowIf I were down on my kneesWould it all be in vainBut for now I'll believeUntil there's some better wayAnd my pages turnTil I've got nothing to sayNow the days with no dawnAre coming of ageLast time I checked I'm at 35 sinsAnother won't matter 'cause I'm never gonna winHolding onto a ghost that I can't saveIf there was a time when I needed to prayThat the angels come my wayIf there was a time when I needed a placeTo wipe the guilt free from my faceIf there was a time for mercy in my lifeIt's right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungGriff the Conqueror Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I'm not sure exactly I've heard of a couple of stories behind it like him sleeping with his mates girlfriend lol but I too think its relevant to Sandor and Gregor (especially) growing up and the toy and fire incident.

erolyn Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'm not a SanSan shipper, but Set Fire To The Rain by Adele always reminds me of the pairing for some reason.Set Fire To The Rain reminds me of Dany. And like...ALL her pairings.Coheed and Cambria has a song called "The Hound (of Blood and Rank)". Even the lyrics fit pretty well:Was it in the cold of that knife you screwed in the heart of the enduring?'Cause when you opened that door, you knew, well now, there'd be no returning,Or room to mourn what we have lost, to wait while the willing.As you're the hound of blood and rank, and boy you've got another thing coming.Come on, come on, come on,You've gotta give it to me,As though you want it too. (...Sansa?)Come on and set me free, yeah.I'll dig it 'til we've made your grave. (GRAVEDIGGER!?)Oh, you've been a bad, bad boy.I'll cut until I carve it out,And stick it in a sad, sad song.Why the bother?You're no brother, (GREGOR.)You're the wrong I need.Boy, we all found an audience.While you found the worst of me,you got another thing.Put 'em up against the wall, now they're of no use to you.God, it's time for the curing.Only your in for that big refuse,Surprise boy! This tide's come a turning.No room to mourn what you have lost.Oh, no waiting while the willing.Poor little hound of blood and rank,who deserves every ounce of what's coming.Come on, come on, come on,You've gotta give it to me,As though you want it too.Come on and set me free, yeah.I'll dig it 'til we've made your grave.Oh, you've been a bad, bad boy.I'll cut until I carve it out,And stick it in a sad, sad song.Why the bother?You're no brother,You're the wrong I need.Boy, we all found an audience.While you found the worst of me,you got another thing.Come on, come on, come on,You've gotta give it to me,As though you want it too.Come on and set me free, yeah.I'll dig it 'til we've made your grave.Oh, you've been a bad,bad boy.I'll cut until I carve it out,And stick it in a sad, sad song.Why the bother?You're no brother,You're the wrong I need.Boy, we all found an audience.While you found the worst of me,you got another thing.We caught you on the wrong side of lying.Within the dust we left you dying.If only words could keep you hiding.Well, go on, cowards, we've offed you.Cowards, we've offed you.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.(I hope your life's a living hell.)It's all on you, boy.
