An idea of me, born after browsing some similar things on Youtube.

If any character of Baldur's Gate would have a song, that would fit him the most, what would that be?
Some my suggestions:

Bhaalspawn PC - "Siedem" ["Seven"] by Hunter
Xan - "I'm only happy hen it rains" by Garbage
Cernd - "In perfect harmony' by Within Temptation
Ellesime - "Cocaine" by Eric Clapton [due to Sammi's image]
Coran - "Sex machine" by James Brown
Irenicus - "Behind blue eyes" by limp Bizkit [hmm, that suits him imho, especially at the first stages of his exile]

If you have something better, or something for another character, feel free to post :)

Any option for Irenicus that isn't Alice Cooper's "He's Back (The man behind the mask)" is WRONG. (This is a fact.)

Yeah, cause he's back
He's the man behind the mask
And he's out of control
He's back
The man behind the mask
And he's after your soul



"Behind blue eyes" seems more suited to a non-evil <charname>:

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be


(Also, The Who. Limp Dickwit covered it, which is a different thing entirely. <_<)


And as for Sarevok, well... he tried so hard and got so far, but in the end, it doesn't even matter. :whistling:

this totally rules!!! :D

it's perfect!!! Good idea about In The End too

Uhm... let me think...


Imoen (BG2 version ) - not a very smart idea, but 'Figure 0.9' by Linkin Park

Kivan - Corellon will strike me dead with his holy might for this, but I believe that "My Immortal" by Evanescence is perfect. Guys, that song is damn sad :crying: that's why I listen to Rammstein instead :devil:

Oh, and Epantiras, you're simply Epantirastic.

Charname (The song of the Mary Sue): Manowar - The Power :whistling:

Edwin: Firewind - Perished in Flames :rolleyes:

Anomen: The Offspring - Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)

You know its kinda hard just to get along today
Our subject isn't cool, but he thinks it anyway
He may not have a clue, and he may not have style
But everything he lacks, well he makes up in denial

...

Gonna play the field, keep it real
For you know a way, for you know a way
So if you don't break, just over compensate
At least you know you can always go on Ricky Lake
The world needs wannabes
The world loves Wannabes
Let's get some more wannabes
Hey, hey, do the brand new thing!


:D

Jaheira: Evergrey - Torn

:wacko:

Khalid: Dreamtale - Memories of Time

Kivan: Evergrey - In Remembrance

Imoen: Lordi - Kids Who Wanna Play With The dead :P

Korgan: Megadeth - Peace Sells (But who's buying?)

Montaron: Brides of Destruction - Shut the F*** Up!

Xzar: Ram Zet - And Innocence

Safana: End of You - You Deserve More


Weeelll... Maybe I've clogged up this thread enough now. I did manage to kill some time, so that's good.. Hurmm... xP

Xan - "I'm only happy when it rains" by Garbage


Seconded. I think about him every time I hear that song.

Oh, and another good song for Ellesime would be "I want to be a Hippy" Seriously. Listen to it. You'll see why.
