Songs, and questions
Songs, and questions
#1
First, the question. Falco's "Rock Me Amadeus": powersong, or not? If not, what does Doug think of it?

Second, a song that anybody who's played Mirror's Edge knows:

No I've changed

I have changed

Just like you

Just like you

For how long

For how long

Must I wait

I know there's something wrong

Your concrete heart isn't beating

And you tried to

Make it come alive

No shadows

Just red lights

Now I'm here to rescue you

Oh I'm still alive

I'm still alive and

I can't apologize, no

Oh I'm still alive

I'm still alive and

I can't apologize, no

So silent

No violence

But inside my head

So loud and clear

You're screaming

You're screaming

Covered up with a smile I've learned to fear

Just sunshine

And blue sky

This is all we get

For living here

Come fire

Come fire

Let it burn and love come racing through

Oh I'm still alive

I'm still alive and

I can't apologize no

Oh I'm still alive

I'm still alive and

I can't apologize no

I've learn to lose

I've learn to win

Turn my face against the wind

I will move fast

I will move slow

Take me where I have to go

Oh I'm still alive

I'm still alive and

I can't apologize no

Any thoughts on if it does anything, and what that something would be?

My usual answer to "I'm not sure, but does this song grant Doug a power?" is "No." Doug's subconscious decides whether there's
a power in a song the very first time he hears the song; if it isn't obvious on first playing that there's a power, there probably isn't.

But that's my take, not Bob's...

I'll have to think about "Rock Me, Amadeus". It's not one I've considered before, despite it being an old favorite. Whatever it does, if it does anything, it's probably subtle.

And "Still Alive"... Um. I'll have to think about it. Most of these don't come to me in a flash, you see...
