Songs That Suit The Characters

[Parker Gabriel]

The selection that the Intensity Angel called

"I Get Knocked Down (But I Get Up Again)"

and credited to

Smash Mouth

is actually titled "Tubthumping," and it's from a musical team that calls itself Chumbawamba.

JSYK. Sorry if I trampled on the intent.

[RhapsodyAngel8]

Queen's 'Who wants to live forever' for Scarlet

Elvis's 'Moody Blue' (for NCS Blue )

[Parker Gabriel]

For the Mysterons, keeping with the Queen usage: "Princes Of The Universe(The Theme From Highlander)."

[Marion]

'Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines'.
Need I say more?

Angel Eyes - Roxy Music
Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits
Heroes and Villains - The Beach Boys
I've Got An Angel - The Eurythmics

[Parker Gabriel]

Maybe "The End," from the Doors featuring Jim Morrison, for Captain Black?

[Intensity Angel]

I've had another little think,

What I've Done by Linkin Park for Captain Black

With A Little Help From My Friends Mark and Sam's version for all of them.

Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves for the Angels.

Die Another Die by Madonna for Captain Scarlet

Everybody In Love by JLS for any couple fan fiction writers decide to put together

Hero by Mariah Carey for Captain Scarlet

[gojohnniegogo]

O Dian(n)e - by Fleetwood Mac
Juliet(te) by the Four Pennies
China Girl by David Bowie

Pretty sure Barry Gray would never forgive me for this, - replacing the Mysterons theme with Bowie's "Life on Mars"
Could be burying head in the sand time again!

[Intensity Angel]

Why didn't I think of that one?!

I'be done some digging and found these songs go well,

The Only One by Evanescene- Captain Scarlet

Whisper by Evanescence - Captain Scarlet

Angel In The Sky by Bun B - The Angels

Another One Bites The Dust by Queen - Characters who become mysterons.

You're My Best Friend by Queen- Scarlet and Blue

Under Pressure by Queen- Spectrum as a whole. The Mysterons don't make it easy, do they?

[Parker Gabriel]

"Too Sexy For Shirt" by White Said Fred for the Angels?

It's titled "I'm Too Sexy," and it effectively WAS the career of RIGHT Said Fred in the United States.

[MMK]

I've posted this one somewhere before, but I still stick to it :

Blue (Da ba dee) by Eiffel 65

'Fade to Grey' by Ultravox

I tried to find the song so I could listen to it, but failed. I did find 'Fade To Grey' by Visage, though


'Planet Earth' by Duran Duran - for all the 'Earthmen'

'Electricity' by OMD - for all the Mysterons (and Scarlet)

[Marion]

I have 'Fade to Grey' by Ultavox on their greatest hits CD (I think Midge Ure wrote it (or was a writer for it) - but I believe Visage did do it as a single. I didn't know that until recently - I gave up on pop music before then.



'He's so fine' by The Chiffons (I think) for any captain you fancy...

[Skybase Girl]

"100 Years" by Five for Fighting, from the album "The Battle for Everything".

You have to listen to it, the lyrics don't always make sense, but it's a perfect anthem for Spectrum, I think.

[Parker Gabriel]

How about "Building A Mystery," Sarah McLachlan's chart selection, for the Mysterons?

[Marion]

Mellow Yellow by Donovan (Ochre)
White Christmas by just about everyone - the colonel.
Blue Christmas by Elvis
Across the Universe by The Beatles
Little Green by Joni Mitchell and she also did:
Big Yellow Taxi - Captain Ochre driving the Yellow Fox Tanker?

And (boy, am I gonna get thumped for this!)
Being Boring by the Pet Shop Boys for Captain Scarlet

[Carrie]

(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes - Elvis Costello. (Tut tut, Scarlet, tell them they CAN'T!)


Behind Blue Eyes by The Who, for Captain Blue, obviously.

Fade to Black - Mettalica
