I don't have ideas for this as a power song, but fits with SM themes

Maybe a theme for a villain who gets redeemed? I don't know, but it's good.


lyrics:

Heavens falling out of the sky
Sends a message to you, and I
See people crawling out of their trees
Chained to sickness, the dogs are free

I want to be saved
I want to be saved

From the sound, the sound
The world is spitting out
Only love can save me now
Gone so down
Lost is all I found
Only love, love, love
Can save me now

Drowning madly in deep blue seas
Waves of sadness swallow me
No soul can hear me beneath the weight
No gods or saviors, no hands of fate

I want to be saved
I want to be saved

From the sound, the sound
The world is spitting out
Only love can save me now
Gone so down
Lost is all I found
Only love, love, love
Can save me now

(bridge)

I want to be saved
I want to be saved
I want to be saved
I want to be saved

From the sound, the sound
The world is spitting out
Only love can save me now
Gone so down
Lost is all I found
Only love, love, love
Can save me now

I would say And So It Went would also fit with end-S1 Sailor Moon, but with Doug's influence the senshi aren't falling so much into "How can mere children be causing so much trouble!?" territory. Still, "The world does not belong to you/you are not the queen, I am not the fool/the world does not belong to you... it belongs to me" does have some resonance with princess/future queen serious-mode Usagi.

Bob's already said that he isn't sticking to canon for much longer... but if he was, this could have been background music for the later stage of the Nephrite/Naru relationship.

Woah. Good songs, both of them. I'm going to have to get them for my MP3 collection. And yeah, Rob's right that "Only Love Can Save Me Now" would slot right in for the Naru-Nephrite plotline.

Hm. I wonder if I could still find a way to use either or both. Hm.

The whole album is pretty top-tier, IMHO. Happy to help!

The Pretty Reckless are pretty good. In a weird bit of coincidence, the lead singer, Taylor Momsen, played Cindy Lou Who in the Ron Howard/Jim Carrey version of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." Has absolutely no bearing on their music, but it's just a weird bit of Hollyweird.

Oh, I didn't realize that was her, and that was her band. I knew about her and her music career, but she didn't look like any photos I've seen of her in the last few years.

Heh. The guitar part reminds me of the theme to Firefly at times.

A different song entirely, but same general idea - no suggestion for powers, but if Doug has corrupted Usagi into a rocker girl this song seems to fit the setting thematics:

Boy, does that sound like Dio's "Rainbow in the Dark" in a lot of places.
