Tewks44 Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Hey I just met you(a reference to Ned Stark meeting Cersei)And this is crazy(Ned stark being "merciful")But here's my number(a metaphor that demonstrates how Ned is making himself available for contact with Cersei)So call me maybe(the "calling" here is obviously Cersei's accusation of treason. Cersei is "calling" Ned a traitor.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanilla Fire Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Someone please make the YouTube video of this with a sweet montage of clips culminating in Ned getting be-nedded.- this. Obviously it would have 'looked' better. I get where you're coming from, there's a reason people tend to associate certain songs with certain characters. Songs try to convey emotions and, on an emotional level, your song resonates with the dissilusioned, soon to be deceased Ned.And your parallells are good notions to how this gradually came to be...but please, don't try to suggest these are intricatly connected. They're clearly not. And for a great fan of the books this might seem either ludicrous or offensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erinne Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 While we're at it, I Wish I Was the Moon is clearly about Theon after he became Reek :P. I know this sounds crazy, but hear me out:Chimney falls and lovers blaze(reference to the sacking and burning of Winterfell)Thought that I was youngNow I've freezing hands and bloodless veinsAs numb as I've become(reference to how his torture and mutilation at the hands of Ramsay led to him looking and feeling old)I'm so tired(self-explanatory)I wish I was the moon tonight(reference to wanting be anything other than what he has become)Last night I dreamt I had forgotten my name'Cause I had sold my soul but awoke just the same(reference to his loss of identity and literally forgetting his name)I'm so lonely(self-explanatory)I wish I was the moon tonight(same as previous)God blessed me, I'm a free manWith no place free to go(reference to his escape from Winterfell - with little hope of actually getting away)I'm paralyzed and collared-tightNo pills for what I fear(reference to the mental damage cause by the torture. Also, he was literally chained up with a collar around his neck at some point)This is crazy(reference to the insanity of the escape plan)I wish I was the moon tonight(same as previous)Chimney falls and lovers blazeThought that I was youngNow I've freezing hands & bloodless veinsAs numb as I've become(same as first verse)I'm so tired,I wish I was the moon tonight(same as previous)How will you know if you found me at last'Cause I'll be the one, be the one, be the oneWith my heart in my lap(not sure on these)I'm so tired, I'm so tiredAnd I wish I was the moon tonightI'm so tired, I'm so tired,And I wish I was the moonI'm so tired, I'm so tired,And I wish I was the moon tonight(all same as previous)Crazy... or GENIUS?!Seriously though, I'm pretty sure you could do this for any song if you tried hard enough.EDIT: Now that I think about it, that could be a forum game... post the title of a random song, and the next poster has to relate it to ASoIaF somehow.Oh andYeah, I am born againOut of the lion's denSansa escaping from the Lannisters and getting a new identity as Alayne.

A Book Would Be My Sigil Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Twinkle twinkle little star(the red comet)How I wonder what you are(everyone wondering what it means, who it heralds)Up above the world so high(clearly a reference to a dragon rider)Like a diamond in the sky(a diamond in the rough? Could this be Jon Snow, potential dragon rider and AA?)Twinkle, twinkle little star(same as previous)How I wonder what you are(same as previous) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could we start a thread and lay out rules? Maybe something like each person who wants to play just posts "I'm in." and the OP gives them a random song to dissect and repost?

Maybe something like each person who wants to play just posts "I'm in." and the OP gives them a random song to dissect and repost?We should totally do it! I liked the idea a lot. Every song is ASoIaF-icable xDOne of the rules should be including a link to the lyrics and another to a video (in case the other person doesn't know the song)You have to analyse the song the previous poster suggested, and then select another one for the following person.... anything else?
