Trek Fan Soundtrack

Being the absolute music nut and musician I am this question tends to hop around my head a lot. A hell of a lot.

'What piece of music do you think of for...?'

I wanna know what songs you think of when you think of Jim, or Bones, or Spock, or Jim/Bones, Chekov, Reaper!Bones...anything really! Anything from the Trek universe. And I dont just mean like the actual movie soundtrack, thats given.

Any piece of music. Doesn't have to be lyrical really, even instrumental pieces can make you think of a certain fic or a certain piece of art, or a scenario that you have imagined.

General suggestions:

- Characters: Like Jim, Bones, Spock, Chekov, Sulu, Uhura, Scotty...on and on. What song do you hear as their theme?

- Pairings: eg. Jim/Bones, Jim/Spock, Spock/Bones, Bones/Chekov, Sulu/Chekov, Spock/Uhura...what do you hear when you read them?

- Fan related: Songs that make you think of a particular fandom fic or artwork?

- Doom Trek: Things that make you think of Reaper!Bones and everything related to that style 'verse.

So? I'm curious guys :)

I Just Call You Mine by Martina McBride just screams McCoy/Kirk to me.

Chorus: And everyone that sees you always wants to know you and everyone that knows you always has a smile your standing ovation after years of waiting for a chance to finally shine everyone calls you amazing i just call you mine.

There are several other songs that remind me of McCoy/Kirk - what can I say, they are my OTP.


And for Pike/George Kirk, there's one song that stands out.

The Dance, by Garth Brooks.

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey, who's to say you know I might have chanced it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance


'Cause, in my mind, Pike and George were so in love.

Nickleback's "Gotta Be Somebody" is my Bones/Kirk getting together song. Especially the verse "Nobody wants to go it on their own and everyone wants to know their not alone." Everytime I hear that I see them.

I totally prompted the Martina McBride for Kirk/Bones on the meme!

Every time I hear it, I think of the scene in the movie, where Jim is made captain.

Oooh, that definitely fits in my head too! For me its the song that represents them looking back at their first year as a couple.
