From their album Crash. If Doug ever wants to do a Haagenti impersonation, I had this mental image of his jaw comically enlarging and taking a bite out of a tank.
Too Much-
Straight in. suck up and go,
Cool it, swallow, swallow
Breathe deep, take it all it comes cheap
Push it through the doors
because in between the lines
I'm gonna pack more lines
so I can get in
Ooh traffic jam got more cars than a beach got sand
Suck it up suck it up suck it up
Fill it up until no more
I'm no crazy creep, I've got it coming to me
because I'm not satisfied
The hunger keeps on growing
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I've got to get it somewhere
I mean, you never know, maybe you're dreaming
Who do you think you're watching
Who do you think you need
Play for me, play more.
Ten times in the same day
I need more. I'm going over my borders
I'm going to take more, morefrom you,
letter by letter
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
I told god I'm coming to your country
I'm going to eat up your cities.
Your homes, you know
I've got a stomach full it's not a chip on my shoulder
I've got this growl in my tummy
And I'm gonna stop it today
I eat too much
I drink too much
I want too much
Too much
Suck it up...

Electric Eye, by Judas Priest
Up here in space
I'm looking down on you.
My lasers trace
Everything you do.
You think you've private lives
Think nothing of the kind.
There is no true escape
I'm watching all the time.
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam.
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean.
I'm elected electric spy
I protected electric eye.
Always in focus
You can't feel my stare.
I zoom into you
You don't know I'm there.
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove.
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
's nothing you can do about it.
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows.
Protected. Detective. Electric eye.
Gives Doug control over a spy sat of his choice, or just really, really, really good spying capabilities.*********
I am a very sensitive person! I can go from laughing to crying with just a kick to the face.

Valles mentioned this back in '03 as a "magical defibrillator," and that works, I agree. I'm sure I saw another reference to it, too, but now I can't find it anywhere, and I don't recall what the powers were for that one.
But what's been nagging at me is that a month or so ago, I listened to it again, and developed a sudden *very* strong feeling that Doug could use this song to cure people who've become vampires against their will.
"Where I've become so numb without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home"
And then I recalled once or twice seeing vampires under the control of other vampires described as "servitors," and my mind made a wild leap:
Servitor. Servant. Oh....
Possibly that would be too powerful. On the other hand, if it *did* break people free of the Servant Factor, that doesn't mean it'd change the mindsets of those who were villains *before* Arcanum infected them -- it just would mean they're no longer his unconditional loyalists. And it *doesn't* take away their powers.
Subject to approval of your GM, of course. But I felt the need to suggest it.

Yes, the chapter size just jumped from 126K to 139K. We're getting there, finally. A scene and a half got written yesterday, and basically we have a scene and a half more before the chapter is done.
It's that half-scene which is the sticker, by the way. Who'd've thought writing up how Doug meets the sempais would be so hard? I've gone through three different scenarios so far. Not just versions -- entirely different sequences of events. Sheesh.

Say your prayers, little one
Dont forget, my son,
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within,
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never never land
Somethings wrong, shut the light,
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they arent of snow white
Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragons fire
And of things that will bite
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never never land
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take
Hush little baby, dont say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
Its just the beast under your bed,
In your closet, in your head
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Were off to never never land
-- Metallica, Enter Sandman

Montage (Team America OST)
The hour's approaching to give it your best,
and you've got to reach your prime
That's when you need to put yourself to the test,
and show us a passage of time
We're gonna need a montage! MONTAGE!
Ooh, it takes a montage! MONTAGE!
Show a lot of things happening at once,
remind everyone of what's going on!
And with every shot show a little improvement,
to show it all would take too long!
That's called a montage! MONTAGE!
Ooh, we want a montage! MONTAGE!
In anything that we want to know,
from just a beginner to a pro
We need a montage! MONTAGE!
Even Rocky had a montage! MONTAGE!
MONTAGE!
MONTAGE!
Anything that we want to know,
from just a beginner to a pro
We need a montage! MONTAGE!
Ooh, it takes a montage! MONTAGE!
Always fade out in a montage
If you fade out it seems like more time has a passed in a monage
Montage
The effect would probably be that the target person becomes an expert in what ever he/she needs to do during the duration of the song.What if: Chibi Usa, Veteran Speznas Ninja Commando From Hell(tm)?

The Talking Heads' (Nothing but) Flowers. (lyrics)
At first glance, the song looks like it could be useful. However, Doug's smart enough to see the problem with it... (It's in the FAQ.)
So, somebody plays the song where Doug hears it, and suddenly everyone's standing around buck-naked, covered in flowers, in a field of flowers. Silverbolt wouldn't care, but everyone else would be at least annoyed. And Doug would need a replacement helmet - hope he had the entire memory backed up somewhere.
Of course, there's the question of how the song's going to be played back, since (unless it's a really loud sound system off in the distance) the first thing to be transmuted is likely to be the playback mechanism...
Hmmmmm... Maybe we'd better not show this post to any of Warrior's World wealthier villains.
