A "Doug" song |

I'm not sure what step it could be appropriate for, but every time I listen to this, it screams Doug and his bike.
Painkiller
Judas Priest
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He's half man and half machine
Rides the Metal Monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A saviour comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds of thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Faster than a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind ressurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller
The only power idea I have for this is some sorta augmentation for his bike, or whatever he's riding.*********
I am a very sensitive person! I can go from laughing to crying with just a kick to the face.

Two More Songs |

The first song is one that sticks in my head when reading DW2. It is the scene where Doug is on the roof of his apartment building and he calls up the simulcrum of his wife.
"Missing You" by Jem off the Finally Woken album
I wish this could be
a happy song
But my happiness disappeared
the moment you were gone
Don't think I ever believed that
this day would come
Now all I'm feeling
is lost and numb
And ohhh I know I promised
Mmmm that I would try
But I, yes I, miss you
and it's killing inside
I'll always be thankful
for the time we had
We were blessed
I should celebrate
but I feel too sad
All the wonderful memories
just make me fall apart
And it feels like somebody's
stabbed me in my heart
And ohhh I know I promised
Mmmm that I wouldn't cry
But I, yes I, miss you
and it's killing inside
Ooh well I, yes I, miss you
want you by my side
Walking, holding hands
Talking, making plans
Touching my heart my soul
I wish this could be
a happy song
But my happiness disappeared
the moment you were gone
Tell me it's not happening
Say it's not as it seems
Tell me that I'm gonna wake up
It's just a bad dream
Please tell me that it's fiction
Tell me it's just a lie
Whatever you choose to tell me
Please say he didn't die
And I, yes I, miss you
and it's killing inside
Ooh well I, yes I, miss you
want you by my side
Ooh well I, miss you
want you by my side
Back here by my side
Here by my side
This second song is also by Jem. I see it as a possible Mind Control song for Doug. I would hazzard that it would only work on the opposite sex. There could be some... interesting side effects for Doug depending on how his subconscious mind hears the lyrics.
Come on closer
I wanna show you
What I'd like to do
You sit back now
Just relax now
I'll take care of you
Hot temptations
Sweet sensations
Infiltrating through
Sweet sensations
Hot temptations
Coming over you
Gonna take it slow babe
Do it my way
Keep your eyes on me
Your reaction
To my action
Is what I want to see
Rhythmic motion
Raw emotion
Infiltrating through
Sweet sensations
Hot temptations
Coming over you
And now you're satisfied
A twinkle in your eye
Go to sleep for ten
And anticipating
I will be waiting
For you to wake again
Hot temptations
Sweet sensations
Infiltrating through
Sweet sensations
Hot temptations
Coming over you
[When you wake up we'll
do it all again]
[When you wake up]
[When you wake up we'll
do it all again]
[When you wake up]
Hour after hour
of sweet pleasure
After this I guarantee
you'll never wanna leave
Shut your eyes and think about
what I'm about to do
Sit back relax I'll take my time
this lovin's all for you

When I was a girl I was idealistic,
Going on the marches, carrying the signs,
Social injustice made me go ballistic,
I cheered for the people on the picket lines.
Well the years went by and I got a little weary,
All tied up in the needs of the child,
I don't read the papers and I have no theory,
But there's one thing that drives me wild:
(I'm talking 'bout)
Stickers on fruit, stickers on fruit,
God, I hate those stickers on fruit,
My distress is so acute
When I deal with stickers on fruit,
Sticker on the apple, sticker on the pear,
Why do they put those stickers on there?
If you don't get them off on the very first day
They take the skin away...
I used to get annoyed at the government of Chile,
I used to boycott Nestle's Quick,
I shed a lot of tears when I watched Free Willy
And O.J.'s trial just made me sick.
I sang at lots of benefits, I wrote a lot of songs,
I got agitated by the agit-prop,
Now I know it's hopeless to right those wrongs,
But there's one thing we've got to stop.
(Are you with me?)
Stickers on fruit, stickers on fruit,
God, I hate those stickers on fruit,
My distress is so acute
When I deal with stickers on fruit,
Sticker on the berry, the red and the blue,
And of course they put stickers on the vegetables too,
Well, call me thick and call me lazy,
But dealing with the stickers just makes me crazy!
Stickers on fruit! Stickers on fruit!
God, I hate those stickers on fruit!
Take me away to the institute
Where I won't have to deal with
Stickers on fruit.
Nancy White, Stickers on Fruit (copyright 2002 Nancy White)
(No, I've never seen this song available for download, maybe because the song immediately before it on the CD is an anti-piracy piece called "And I Copied It". You can order the CD "Stickers on Fruit" from www.borealisrecords.com. Bob, I'll get you a copy of the CD; consider it a very late Christmas present.)
What power would Stickers on Fruit give Doug? Simple: While the song's playing, people aren't fanatical about anything except one extremely trivial thing. That's probably not enough to permanently shake off the Servant Factor personality reprogramming, but for for 2 minutes and 34 seconds they've got relatively clear heads; that may be enough to pass along something important. Just don't show anyone a piece of fruit with a sticker on it while the song's playing...

So, I'm curious about something, Bob.
Would Glory actually qualify as a God to Doug? Or just a Very Powerful Demon? (and, though it's not really relevant...what would he make of Illyria?)

Yet another possible Gate Song... |

Yep, that's right... yet another gate song. I heard this on the radio *months* ago, and finally found the lyrics. My ears and thinking recon it's one of my better finds. For a while I couldn't locate the lyrics as I though it was sung by The Corrs. I don't know if there is any music verison on the net, but the following lyrics comes from: www.stlyrics.com
Anyway, here it is:
Artist: Lindsay Lohan Lyrics
Song: What Are You Waiting For Lyrics
Sometimes I get that overwhelming feeling.
So sad, the faces on tv.
If I tried to make a difference, would it help anyway?
But then I stop and to myself I say..
So you wanna change the world?
What are you waiting for?
Say you're gonna start right now.
What are you waiting for?
It only takes one voice.
So come on now and shout it out.
Give a little more,
What are you waiting for?
Sometimes, I feel a little helpless.
Seems like I can't do a thing.
But anything is possible, just you wait and see.
Good things happen, if you just believe.
So you wanna change the world?
What are you waiting for?
Say you're gonna start right now.
What are you waiting for?
It only takes one voice.
So come on now and shout it out.
Give a little more,
What are you waiting for?
Someday, somehow. I'm gonna take that step.
Cause time is tickin' away.
Right here, right now.
Before it's too late.
I'm gonna face tomorrow today.
Don't wait.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you wanna change the world?
What are you waiting for?
Say you're gonna start right now.
What are you waiting for?
It only takes one voice.
So come on now and shout it out.
Give a little more,
What are you waiting for?

The Zero Song |

Does anyone remember the Zero program in Gundam Wing? It's the program where the computer syncs up with Heero Yui and feeds him data on a tactical situation and courses of action. And it also speeds up the person's response time exponentionaly. It's one of the reasons why Wing Zero is so deadly. Of course, it progrms puts so much of a strain on the mind of the user that personality side effects come out.
This is my idea for the Zero Song:
You folks might recognize it from the Transformers:The Movie Soundtrack
Dare by Stan Bush
Sometimes when your hopes have all been shattered
And there's nowhere to turn
You wonder how you keep going
Think of all the things that really mattered
And the chances you've earned
The fire in your heart is growing
You can fly, if you try leaving the past behind
Heaven only knows what you might find
Dare - dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare - dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win, if you dare
Everybody's trying to break your spirit
Keeping you down
Seems like it's been forever
But there's another voice if you'll just hear it
Saying it's the last round
Looks like it's now or never
Out of the darkness you stumble into the light
Fighting for the things you know are right
Dare - dare to believe you can survive
The power is there at your command
Dare - dare to keep all of your dreams alive
It's time to take a stand
And you can win, if you dare
Dare - dare to believe you can survive
You hold the future in your hand
Dare - dare to keep all of your dreams alive
The power is there at your command
Dare - dare to keep all your love alive
Dare to be all you can be
Dare - 'cause there is a place where dreams survive
And it's calling you on to victory
I see it doing a couple of things:
Roll a d10 or d6 to see how many levels his physical attributes temporarily increase for the duartion of the song. His mental attributes...let's just say his situational awareness and response time go off the charts.
His helmet feeds him continuous stream of info on the tactical sutuation and suggest courses of action.
I can see Doug pulling off some impossible stunts while the song is playing. Of course, the physical and mental after effects might be pretty bad as well.

With music by our side
To break the color lines
Lets work together
To improve our way of life
Join voices in protest
To social injustice
A generation full of courage
Come forth with me
People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers we can get it right
One time
We are a part of the rhythm nation
This is the test
No struggle no progress
Lend a hand to help
Your brother do his best
Things are getting worse
We have to make them better
Its time to give a damn
Lets work together come on
People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers we can get it right
One time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

Doug's metagift won't be affected by purely muscial pieces. But what about pieces with a few words like...
Conti's Theme From Rocky (Gonna Fly Now)!
And if it does..what's the effect?
BTW..does anyone has a copy of the soundtrack?
