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 :)

Dude Garth Brooks definitely has the ultimate Bones song for me:

"Learning to Live Again"

I burned my hand, I cut my face
Heaven knows how long it's been
Since I've felt so out of place
I'm wonderin' if I'll fit in.

Debbie and Charley said they'd be here by nine
And Deb said she might bring a friend
Just my luck, they're right on time
So here I go again.

I'm gonna smile my best smile
And I'm gonna laugh like it's going out of style
Look into her eyes and pray that she don't see
That learning to live again is killing me.

Little cafe, table for four
But there's just conversation for three
I like the way she let me get the door
I wonder what she thinks of me.

Debbie just whispered, "You're doin' fine"
And I wish that I felt the same
She's asked me to dance, now her hand's in mine
Oh, my god, I've forgotten her name.

But I'm gonna smile my best smile
And I'm gonna laugh like it's going out of style
Look into her eyes and pray that she don't see
That learning to live again is killing me.

Now here we are beneath her porch light
And I say what a great time it's been
A kiss on the cheek, a whisper goodnight
And I say, "can I see you again".

And she just smiles her best smile
And she laughs like it's going out of style
Looks into my eyes and says, "We'll see"
Oh this learning to live again is killing me
God this learning to live again is killing me

Spock/Uhura
Disease by Matchbox Twenty (mostly spock trying to figure out wtf is happening to him lol)

Feels like you made a mistake
You made somebodys heart break
But now I have to let you go
I have to let you go

You left a stain
On every one of my good days
But I am stronger than you know
I have to let you go

No ones ever turned you over
No ones tried
To ever let you down,
Beautiful girl
Bless your heart

I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy baby
I cant live without you
Tell me what I am supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Dont pay no attention to me
I got a disease

Feels like youre making a mess
Youre hell on wheels in a black dress
You drove me to the fire
And left me there to burn

Every little thing you do is tragic
All my life, oh was magic
Beautiful girl
I cant breathe

I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy baby
I cant live without you
Tell me what I am supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Dont pay no attention to me
I got a disease
I think that Im sick
But leave me be while my world is coming down on me
You taste like honey, honey
Tell me can I be your honey
Be, be strong
Keep telling myself it that wont take long till
Im free of my disease

Yeah well free of my disease
Free of my disease

I got a disease
Deep inside me
Makes me feel uneasy baby
I cant live without you
Tell me what I am supposed to do about it
Keep your distance from it
Dont pay no attention to me
I got a disease

I think that Im sick
But leave me be while my world is coming down on me
You taste like honey, honey
Tell me can I be your honey
Be, be strong
Keep telling myself it that wont take long till
Im free of my disease
Yeah well free of my disease
Free of my disease

Jim: as said before "Wonderful" by Rob Thomas.. no really lol

Look at me I'm made of wonderful, wonderful
I'm all easy breath and steady
walk, steady walking
But underneath I'm barely moving, no
Its like I'm nothing
All the ways they had to make
me smile and then they go and break me

[Chorus]
Wait, I think I feel like hell
Though I can't be myself
And I can't be nobody else but if I could
Would you love me then [x3]

Look at me, I'm made of
wonderful, it's terrible
I'm all easy come and easy go

As far as you know
But underneath, man, I'm just killing time
I guess I'm past my prime
and now I'm overrated,
overdressed, and overstated

[Chorus]

If I put my hands up, put your hands up
If I fall down
If I lose my place
And I don't know just where
I'm supposed to go
If you'll be there when I wake
Would you love me then?

And I come home tired
And I come home late
Everybody wants me
So I give it away
I'm a wanted man [x4]

Would you love me then [x3]
