Trek Fan Soundtrack

[miss_m_cricket]

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 :)

Practically anything dealing with Georgia for Bones, though I think my fav song is "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay" by Otis Redding for Bones. That and "Georgia On My Mind" by Ray Charles.

Sittin' On the Dock of the Bay - the two lyrics that fit the best:

"I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the 'Frisco bay
'Cause I've had nothing to live for
And look like nothin's gonna come my way...

Sittin' here resting my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home"

"Heroes" by David Cook for Kirk/Bones. The lyrics just fit them both, to me at least. Plus I just LOVE that song.

"I Wanna" by The All-American Rejects SCREAMS TOS!Kirk/TOS!Spock to me. In a very angsty way.

"I'm Still Here" by John Rzeznik. Jim, 'nuff said. And Spock, actually.

And yes, as one poster said, "Rocket Man". Fits Bones really damn WELL. :B

And on an angsty-romantic note, "If I Fell" by The Beatles is my song for Bones when he's realizing that he's falling for Kirk rather hard and is afraid that if he acts on it, he could be hurt again.

I think I'ma stop now before I keep adding more. >.>;;;

Oh I know, I just find it funny that I use more oldies for the reboot people than new stuff. XD

Ha omg I never realized the appropriateness of "Sittin' On the Dock of the Bay" for Bones! From Georgia to San Fran, and even a mention of "bones". Wow.
