Music of the Spheres

[timelord1]

Hi all - anybody out there have songs they use that particularly inspire them one way or another when writing Who fiction? I thought it might be fun to post them into one jumbo, shared playlist.

Here's a few that inspire me:

"Uprising" by Muse - it has a real "Who" sound to it, and evokes images of battle and struggle and intensity.

"Exogenesis: Symphony Part 3 'Redemption'"  by Muse, from the same album as above, it is very heartfelt and emotional. Listened to this a lot when writing the emotional parts of "Paradox Clones" - esp. the "Let me go," part. Very moving piece of music

"When We First Met" by Hellogoodbye - I play this one a lot when writing the silly fluff.

Anything by Woodpigeon, especially off the album "Songbook" is also good for twee/fluff. :)

Black Velvet is a great song - always evokes images of long dirt roads and old farmhouses in my head, though I'm not sure if that's because of the music video or not. :)

Have I yet mentioned that I thought the sonic duck was awesome? Cuz it was! :) You were right about how you can start romantic and it suddenly slides into smut-land, which is not bad atall... :)
