Three posts in a row for Ivy’s song. Oh I do like Ivy….
Depeche Mode’s Suffer Well from playing the Angel….This song is soooo bitter sweet.
I hear this song in those moments when Ivy is silent and her inner strength is fractured by emotional hurt and the thought that she will not get Rachael, but is holding to vapours of hope…..this song rings in my head with the narrative… I feel like I want to give Ivy the living vampire a hug.
Kim you write these type of feelings so well. Thank you for the entertainment of your stories….and please do listen to the song.. It is the finest sweetest melancholy.
Melancholy, the emotion that best describes a vampire…happy and sad, alive and dead.
When Ivy looses control, there is on song by Bullet for my Valentine called Deliver us from Evil, that I find reflects the twin personalities of Ivy. The Ivy that wants to be a good friend, and the Ivy is driven by need and the lustful nature of vampires from the Hollows universes.
Kim I do like Ivy, sometimes more than Rachael. If you do ever get bord of writing from THE Rachael POV, you could always start a series from Ivy’s Point Of View. You would of course have to switch from romantic to erotic style of writing. Lol. But seriously, please do keep that option open….
Once again Kim I hope you do get to read this and I do think you will like the music from Bullet for My Valentine. The music is intense and full of emotion.
WIth regards to Ivy’s feelings for Rachel’s and the feelings that she must have , I always hear Tears don’t Fall by Bullet for my Valentine. Oh that song is laced with emotion.
Kim I do hope you get to read this and listen to this awesome band.
Hi Ms. Kim-As I remarked elsewhere, Janis Joplin doing “Little Girl Blue”
Anders Manga – There Will Be Blood
Anders Manga: “Heart of Black”
For Ivy: “Bloodletting” by Concrete Blonde. PERFECT with the right hint of sultry darkness which I associate with her character.
Hi Ms. Kim-No one has mentioned the classic so I guess I will
“Get while you can” specially when she’s singing “Someone comes along,gonna give you some love and affection”
Thats Janis Joplin,of course,for those who never studied classical music.
I’m shocked no one has suggested ‘The Hollow’ by A Perfect Circle. If Ivy was embodied in a song, I really believe she lives through this one!
Sing in Silence by Sonata Arctica fits Ivy well in the earlyer books
I think these songs go with Ivy really well. Especially since they’re technically sung by a vampire.
The Vampire Lestat-”System” “Redeemer” “Forsaken”
Lestat Concert- “Not Meant For Me” “Slept So Long”
I really think that Lithium by Evanescence really discribes Ivy’s pain and who she really wants to be. If you really read into the lyrics you can see how it suits her and it also kinda explaines how she feels toward Rachel.
Wicked Game covered by HIM
I knew the lyrics to this song before I even knew it existed and listening back on it, I can’t help but think of Ivy and her relationship with Rachel.
I think that Breaking Benjamin’s “Blow me away” is good for Trent trying to save the elves
Hello Mrs. harrison (i hope that is right) i wanted to share a couple songs that i love to listen to when i am thinking of Ivy. the first song is always Skillets song ‘Hero’. as the last of the first part and the coris says,
Angel of mine by Amanda Somerville.
I think it reflects Ivy’s love for Rachel.
Florence and the Machine-Hardest of Hearts
Elvis Presley – Fever
Hi Ms Kim,Jim from Warren here. It’s Amy Winehouse all the way. “You Know I’m No Good” when she writes and sings Ï cheated myself like I knew I would, and her quote from the same time. Where do you see yourself in ten years? I’ll be dead in a ditch. On fire.
Oh Well She found her way home first.
Stone Sour, “Say You’ll Haunt Me”
‘The Story’ by Brandi Carlile
‘What you are’ by Drill
‘Perfect’ by Alanis Morissette
For Ivy I like “This is why” by Late Night Alumni. She holds in so much emotion.
how about
pink – Runaway
to me it sums up how ivy feels inside and how far she’d need to go to runaway from herself
truthfully I can only see one song playing in my mind as Ivy progresses in dealing with her vamipirism Disturbed “Stricken” this one line just rings to me ” you come on like a blood stained hurricane”
SKY Ferreira-obssesion for ivy and rachle
Garbage ” Can’t seem to make you mine”. It seems to match Ivy’s feelings for Rachel Perfectly !
“Scream of the Butterfly” by Acid Bath
This song really fits the moment in the second book where Ivy was… “comprimised.”
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8f7-cRZgQk&w=425&h=349
Sonic Syndicate Beauty and the Freak
Describes Ivy’s indifference toward herself
Killswitch Engage The End of Heartache
Teeth, by Lady Gaga, although it suits the old Ivy more than the newer, more stable Ivy
The Dresden Dolls: Coin-Operated Boy
Particularly the desperate bridge and reference to destroying real people she loves, and the desire for someone to love her despite how difficult she makes it.
Also, so glad to see Rasputina’s Transylvanian Concubine on the list!
Charlotte Martin – Every Time It Rains
Limp Bizkit “No Sex”
Damned And Divine & Die Alive by Tarja
“Help I’m alive” by Metric (acoustic version) reminds me a lot of
Ivy’s internal struggles…
Sweet Soul Sister by the Cult. It just SOUNDS the way Ivy would MOVE.
I was thinking that maybe “Broken” by Seether featuring Amy Lee from Evanescence is a good song for Ivy to Rachel. I consider adding it to Ivy’s Playlist.
For Ivy I found “Monster” by Skillet:
i think this is the perfect song for ivy when she bites rachel the first time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFKgAn6mVuA
“Field Of Innocence” by Evanescence
Best fits Ivy when she almost kills Rachel in the back of Nick’s truck.
How she feels that everything she touches she kills.
I don’t know if this has been suggested yet, and if it hasn’t, I’m shocked! This is my perfect Ivy (with Rachel) song. Especially the very first lyric of the song, and that one part in that one book…Ivy and Rachel’s relationship is so complex, so teetering on that very fine line.
NIN – “Something I Can Never Have”
aaand i think [ eminem - space bound ] fits very well with her charakter, her previous relationships (with kist and piscary) and now to her relationship with rachel
Lacuna Coil – Stars
Tarja – until my last breath / i feel immortal / the archive of lost dreams
Apocalyptica – i don´ t care (rachel too)
Amorphis – i of crimson blood / her alone (rachel)
Delain – the whole album lucidity
I think the song “Little House” by The Fray suits Ivy pretty well
Whoops, and “White Flag” by Dido
good choice with white flag
it has ivy all over it
cheers
sorry for the vid but the song is good
ash in a jar
All Thieves
Nobody’s Wife – Anouk
xx
“Beautifly Broken” by Ashlee Sipmson I think it relates to Ivy and Rachels relationship and what they see about one another they have seen each other at some really bad times and stayed by each other through it all.
The Black Keys- “Your Touch” and “Psychotic Girl”
Great taste
Drumming Song – Florence & The Machine
Blue October “Graceful Dancing” from Ivy to Rachel
Blue October “Clumsy Card House” and “Still Broken”
This song i feel can go with so many characters in this series and I kind of feel saying just Ivy is a bit obvious but….Eels-Fresh Blood
It makes me think of Trent, Al, Kirsten AND a few of the werewolves we’ve been introduced to (most pointedly the she wolf rachel fights in a fistful of charms)…but in the end Ivy just had the strongest imagery for this song.
“The Pills Won’t Help You Now” By the Chemical Brothers. Trust me, listen to the lyrics. It’s Ivy all over.
“Face Down” for Ivy and Piscary, and “Your Guardian Angel” for Ivy and Rachel or Jenks and Rachel. Both are by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Just heard a song I have not heard for a bit, “Not Enough” by Van Halen, Gets across Ivy’s unsatisfied Love/Lust for Rachel
Another cool song for Ivy, which I just heard recently, would probably be “Cut” by Plump.
Sorry about that ‘Plumb’ Not plump. XD
when i listen to NiN something I can never have and Within Tempation Frozen tears and caged, Ivy always comes to mind
Sorry if it’s been suggested…but..
Metallica – Nothing Else Matters
Skillet – monster. An Ivy song if ever I heard one
Some songs from some awesome aussie rock bands:
All The Same… Sick Puppies
What Are You Looking For… Sick Puppies
Tremmers… Dead Letter Circus
Aussie
All the Same
I don’t know if there are any Repo the Genetic Opera Fans out there but the song: Genetic Emancipation fits Ivy and Piscary to a t. For her and Racheal I hear Voltaire’s Underground.
skillet – the thirst is taking over (with rachel)
[CHORUS:]
You alone are what my soul needs
You know the thirst is taking over
Hardly breathe, I’m in urgent need
You know the thirst is taking over
i think it’s the best part from the song
somehwere i belong-linkin park
it fits her so much especially when she wants to fight all the bad things she thinks she is.
the song Last Night by Skillet i think fits Ivy and Rachel when their together.
I think “Thirst Is Taking Over” from Skillet would be good, too.
Savage by The Eurythmics Makes me think of Ivy
Lies
Evanescence
Evanescence: Lies
Weight of the World by Evanescence fits sooo well. Especially considering her past
“Feels like the weight of the world,
Like God in heaven gave me a turn.
Don’t cling to me, I swear I can’t fix you.
Still in the dark, can you fix me?”
Also Nobodys Home by Avril Lavigne. Not a big fan of Avril but I think it fits Ivy.
I think Weathered by Creed fits Ivy nicely.
Black Lab “This Night”
this was an excellent suggestion good call
For Ivy and Rachel
-The Brilliant Green – You and I
For Ivy
-Burn Halo – Save Me
Lenny Kravitz – “Black Velveteen”
I think:
Silversun Pickups – It’s Nice To Know You Work Alone
reminds me of Ivy pre-VC.
i’m not sure if this one would work
for kistens death and ivy’s mourning but it sounds good
black label society in this river http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HUr9UKAxiY
I am on a roll this evening!
Ivy, to Rachel: I will possess your heart by Death Cab for Cutie
Everytime I listen to this song it reminds me of the hardship Ivy goes thro living with Rachel. It’s an awesome song!
The Chemicals Between Us
Bush
wow it’s been a while since I was on here & checked out the playlists. my eyes were wandering over the Artists & Songs I Simply cant believe how long the playlists have become. I remember the half dozen or so songs I had for Ivy Rachel & Jenks back on the old site. But what really sparked the Nostalga was seeing The Crystal Method’s Jaded. I remembered the 1st time I read about Ivy in Dead witch walking, The way this song was playing and the way Ivy with her “Long Hair” and leather at the time just seemed to Ooze Sexy & Sultry almost in a sex-kitten Manner. The Reason why it struck me as Ivy’s song was the Chorus.
Think about the Good Things That I Did to you
And Think about the Bad Things That I Didn’t Do.
That I Didn’t Do
That I Didn’t Do
Turn Your Head
If It Don’t Feel Good
Turn Your Head
If You Don’t Want to take it.
Oh man, it’s been a long time since I’ve contributed to the playlists. I’ve gotta say that I like the new layout, Kim.
1) I’m liking “Gods Of Second Chance” by Metal Church. Yeah, the main character in the song is a guy, but that’s beside the point. It’s what he’s saying a why. The desperation that Ivy goes through, all of the conflicting emotions that plague her very existence are spelled out in this song. The chorus lyrics alone gives us a window into the heart of what she wants.
Chorus:
“God don’t you hear me? God don’t you care?
Cause if you did, my friend, then you/
Wouldn’t leave me hanging on this way!
Somebody turn on the lights! Somebody give me some air!
I’m in the middle of a nasty situation/
That is leading me on nowhere!
I gotta hear you tonight! I gotta know that you care.
You got me down on my knees and I’m praying/
And I gotta know that you’re really up there!”
2) I’ve always admired how Kim has written Ivy’s character. She’s very aware of her nature, and she hates herself for it. Like her need to seek solitude, especially when she’s in the church. To me, it looks like she’s always battling with what her instincts tell her vs. what her soul begs her to do. I think Disturb’s new song “Asylum”, in particular when she’s around Rachel and Piscary is in her head. Everything about this song, from the deep, dramatic bass to the way David sings the song fits the triangle. Check it out to see what I mean.
3) This one’s kind of a gimme.”She’s A Vampire” by Xandria. A good gothic, techno/gothic rock song that just spells it out. You’re a vampire, Ivy, you know? Deal with it… sometimes I just wanna say that as I slap her upside the head, anyone else?
4) Another good one that comes to mind is “Never Enough” by Five Finger Death Punch. Again this plays more at Ivy’s relationships with the Master Vampires, but Piscary mostly. The title itself spells it out. It was never enough, he just kept pushing and pushing; Rachel does it too, and I can almost see that thought running through her mind during one of her… fits.
I guess that one can fall under the Rachel/Ivy category as well, in that instance.
That’s all I got for now. I’m sure I’ll be back again. Great songs lists on here, btw. I love open forums, they just might point you towards something you like.
I think that the song Coward by Black Light Burns really goes well with Ivy’s feelings concerning Rachel… It gets her wanting Rachel to stay away from her but also captures her confidence as a hunter and knowing Rachel will want to stay.
It just fits so perfectly I think.
believe-the bravery-it describes ivy and all that she really wants
save me-golden state-ivy’s beliefs in racheal about finding a way for her to keep her soul and a little bit about their odd relationship
say it ain’t so-weezer-the chorus describes how ivy feels when racheal declines her invitation to become her scion and how she feels that her love ruins everything and hurts everyone
S.O.S (Anything But Love) by Apocalyptica feat Cristina Scabbia reminds me a lot of Ivy’s fight against Piscary. I actually heard this song back when I first started reading the books and it seemed to strike a cord in me whenever I came to a scene where Piscary was screwing with Ivy.
Sullen Girl by Fiona Apple
Easier to Run by Linkin Park
I think Monster by Skillet and Beautiful Lie by 30 Seconds to Mars fit Ivy perfectly. Monster describes how she feels about herself and her blood intake that she tries to keep a secret from Rachel. Beautiful Lie shows the side of her that wants everything to be okay, but she knows that if she thinks that it is then she’s only lying to herself. She is a very deep character and I think many songs could fit her.
i thought that
Linkin park’s Breaking the habit and Krawling suited her as does
Evanescence’s Whisper from the older album
I thought that…
Linkin Park’s Crawling suited her as does
Evanescence whisper the older version not trough the open door and
linkin park’s breaking the habit
I totally think “Free Me” by Emma Bunton is completely Ivy’s song to Rachel. The chorus sings for itself:
“Free me
Let me loose to love you
How I long to seduce you.”
Perfectly Ivy.
Here’s a song that I thought fit Ivy’s thoughts on Rachel from time to time.
Anberlin – The Feel Good Drag
Skillet-Monster
Disturbed – The Night
I think That was just your life by Metallica fits well –deals with Ivy’s wanting to remain alive and etc, her endless fight against, well, herself.
HIM~ the foreboding sense of impending happiness on the new album screamworks
disarm me with your loneliness works too.
This one is for Ivy
Scary Bitches – I’m the woman that killed Jack the Ripper
(drunk his Blood und throw him in the river…)
FM Static – Sometimes you can’t forget who You are
Kennedy- “Karate”
Villanova – Hard To Be Around
“Paperdoll” by Kittie because of how Ivy acted with Piscary and what he did to her mind(soul).
A Perfect Circle’s 3 Libras from the album Mer de Noms
i think a song which shows perfect ivy`s feelings for rachel is “think twice (before you touch my girl) by eve 6″. everytime i listen to the song i must think on ivy and how jealous she can be if rachel dates other guys.
i think think rachel and ivy would be such a sweet and hot couple ^-^
Lady Gaga – Poker Face
I can’t understand how this isn’t already on the list. It fits her perfectly, in my opinion. It’s all about how she keeps her emotions hidden, it references playing around with sexuality and being a bit of a mess when it comes to all that. It seems like an excellent fit.
she wil be loved by maroon 5 with rachel too
I think yellow by coldplay (with rachel) and white demon love song by the killers (with rachel).
Shawn Mullins – Lullaby
“from the stage I can tell that
she can’t let go and she can’t relax
and just before
she hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullaby, I sing
everything’s gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
everything’s gonna be all right
rockabye, rockabye
rockabye”
The softer side of Ivy, I think.
Leonard Cohen: “This Waltz”
Original work by Vic Graninger
Trapped
Aiden – The Last Sunrise
Rob Zombie – Spookshow Baby
skillet- hero
Twisted method- inside out
This song i think hits how ivy feels most of the time
A song that is perfect for any Vampyre would have to be “Love Song For A Vampire” by Annie Lennox.
Lady GaGa,,,,”TEETH”
I have pondered this long and hard – first to post this or not because not only does it say a lot about Ivy and her love for Rachel and Rachel’s deep need for Ivy – it reveals something i me.
I am referring to the Underworld Soundtrack track # 02 Rev 22-20 by Pucifer.
HIM – Poison Girl (for her relationship with Rachel)
“I did it all just for her
I did it all just for her
And love’s heart is death
For me and my poison girl
A prey she was for the cruelty of love
While its serpent inside crawled straight towards her heart
The coldest kiss love ceased to exist
While we grew apart like never before”
Snow Patrol – The Lightning Strike
“I want pinned down
I want unsettled
Rattle cage after cage
Until my blood boils
I want to see you
As you are now
Every single day
That I am living”
because, it really fits the feelings she has for Rachel and this not only in the lyrics, but also (and maybe even more importantly) in the vibe, melody.
it sure is some kinda dramatic, angsty, but also filled with all kinds of piled up feelings, just waiting to break free.
(and I may be wrong about this, because I have yet to read the other books besides Dead Witch Walking, but for the beginning it fits, when it’s still all so raw, yet already oh so formidable)
Tarja Turunen – Die Alive.
lady ga ga’s song teeth from her new album
My Ivy Song –
Blood roses by Tori Amos
For Rachel: Yellowcard’s Five Becomes Four
I think that Emilie Autumn’s song I Want My Innocence Back is perfect for Ivy. Give it a listen.
When I think of Ivy at the edge of vamping, I think of Portishead’s “Glory Box” or even Goldfrapp’s “Strict Machine.” Smoldering, sultry vocals with at times unrelenting rhythms sum up some aspects of Ivy’s amazingly complex character to me.
Yann Tiersen – Comptine D’un Autre Éte (means Rhyme Of Another Summer)
This is a piano piece which I love very much. I totally can imagine Ivy playing it.
Kim,
Not sure if you still read this post…
I found a song I feel expresses Ivy’s struggles and emotions with her and Rachels blood balance problem.
The Kill by 30 Seconds to Mars
Both the radio and live version are so emotional, you can feel the frustration. I instantly thought of Ivy or Rachel, but more Ivy.
ok…just saw the song on Rachels play list! Crap on toast!!!!!
Emilie Autumn – Opheliac
<3
Rob Zombie – Living Dead Girl
Sorry ’bout the double post, but…
Orgy: Stitches works for Ivy’s turmoil over Skimmer’s reappearance in her life and feeling herself being dragged back to the old Ivy.
Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad? & Two Steps Behind By Def Leppard
My Dying Bride – She is the dark
My Dying Bride – For you
And many more from My Dying Bride!
“Help, I’m Alive” by Metric
Xandria- Vampire
Jay Chou – Huang Jia
The absolute perfect song for Ivy is “Dancing Nancies” by Dave Matthews Band. I just finished reading the Hollows story in the Dates from Hell book, and there is a part where Ivy thinks “Twenty-three, and already tired of life”, just like in the song. And come on, I’m sure Ivy would think “Could I have been anyone other than me?” every single day of her life. I’m telling you, it’s perfect!
I think Ivy’s song should be Lou Reed- take a walk on the wild side
There’s an old Evanescence song that makes me think of Ivy and Rachel. Some of the lyrics don’t fit absolutely perfectly, but whe they do, it’s amazing.
Anything For You by Evanescence
Xandia – Save My Life, Vampire
Two songs I think of are:
Bitch
and
TNT
I personally think the playlist is in large parts way too much lyrics-driven. While the lyrics might be fitting in themselves, the music often doesn’t quite – my opinion.
Evanescence, fine, but
Somebody try to listen to Steve Turre’s work, the album “Rhythm Within” springs to mind – that’s what I can hear when Ivy’s in the living room or otherwise brooding, trying to relax, seeking peace, you name it.
Wordless, but the music outlines her, if you give it chance.
Oh. My. Good. Lord.
I have found my personal and ultimative Ivy-Song.
And of course I’ll share it with you guys.
Jenny Owen Youngs – Fuck Was I
Hey Mrs H! Please listen to that one! Please?
I don’t believe there is a Nine Inch Nails song called “Straight Up”.
Lifehouse – Storm
Ivy’s longing for Rache and her belief that Rache will save her soul
For Ivy…and I can’t believe no one has said this one… What’s It Like by Everlast and let’s be honest…Type O Negative was a given along with Concrete Blonde The Bloodletting was a given as well LOL And WOW ZUG ISLAND??!! Thought I was the only person who would of thought of THAT one! (It’s a Juggalo thing…look it up LOL)
For Ivy:
“Crawl” by Breaking Benjamin
“Lights Out” by Breaking Benjamin
“I Will Not Bow” by Breaking Benjamin
“Into The Nothing” by Breaking Benjamin
“Dear Agony” by Breaking Benjamin
(As you can see, BB gets me in the mood for Ivy T! Really, their new album “Dear Agony” must have been written for and about Ivy Tamwood)
I was just about to post Dear Agony nice choice. =D
“Monster” by Skillet I can’t think of a better song about what Ivy thinks of herself
Atreyu Lip Gloss and Black
Lifehouse – The Joke
When I first heard this, I thought about Ivy. The lyrics fit too.
Cheers
Three songs for Ivy, the tortured soul…
Child in Time by Deep Purple, if just for the primal screaming.
Swamped by Lacuna Coil
Sea of Tranquility by ‘Rin, words I feel Ivy is singing to Rachel.
Dear Agony by Breaking Benjamin
There could be nothing more fitting for Ivy than the sentiments in the song ‘Hold on to My heart’ by Blackie Lawless on his ‘Crimson Idol’ concept album. ‘Hold on to my heart, for all that I am , you hold in your hands, so just hold on, hold on to my heart.’ I picture Ivy sank to her knees in self loathing pleading with Rachel to just ‘hold on.’ If you have never heard it… go find it… and listen to the whole track… you will see what I mean.
Apocalyptica ft. Cristina Scabbia – S.O.S.
I think shackled by Vertical Horizon fits Ivy too
Evanescence- Tourniquet
I think this song fits the “savior” complex Ivy has with Rachel
Three Days Grace – Pain
Pain- I can’t get enough
Pain – I like it rough
cause I’d rather feel pain than nothing at all…
Gravity by Sara Bareilles. It reminds me of Ivy and Piscary’s relationship. Just the words of this song are amazing.
“Paralyzed” by the Cardigans. Fits Ivy and Piscary. It starts out:
“This is where your sanity gives in /and love begins /never lose your grip /don’t trip/ don’t fall/you’ll lose it all/the sweetest way to die…”
Yellowcard – “Only One” “Everywhere” “You and me and one Spotlight”
I love Lacuna Coil’s song “SPELLBOUND”. It fit’s with Ivy. Down to the velvet drapes and glowing candles.
my imortal evanesence
pink so what
pink please dont leave me
evanesence going under
Audioslave’s “Like a Stone”
I think this song could work for Ivy to Rache or Kisten to Rache but I loved it for Ivy first so I’m putting it here I think it sounds like how she must be feeling all the time after what Piscary did to her and then how she feels about Rachel.
It is Rob Thomas “Wonderful” and it’s just everything the strong beat and the great lyrics that just bring Ivy to my head everytime I hear it.-
Fuel’s “Bad Day” is soooooooooo Ivy. It mirrors her person struggle with herself.
O Death – Jen Titus (for vamped out Ivy)
I Want You (She’s so Heavy) – Dana Fuchs, Joe Anderson & T.V. Carpio (fromt he ‘Across the Universe’ soundtrack)
Special Pets – Otep
For What It’s Worth – Placebo
Mama – My Chemical Romance
Beautiful Girl – Broken Iris
Carfax Abbey “Cry Little Sister”
Two songs for Ivy:
Hotel Hell by Eric Burdon & the Animals for the feeling not to belong to anyplace
and
Vollmond (full moon) by In Extremo for the lust for blood (try to watch the video clip and you understand what i mean)
Smashing Pumpkins-”Rats”
“Dear Agony” by Breaking Benjamin for the times when she feels lost and hopeless.
Sorry about the double post but also Halestorm’s Innocence for Ivy as well
A great song to add wopuld be Familiar Taste Of Poison by Halestorm. If you like evanescence give this a listen
The Police-Every Breath You Take(for Rachel)
The End of Heartache by Killswtich Engage (to Rachel) I think that the lyrics speak for themselves
i think “Autopsy Song” by otep describes how ivy feels inside. someone should check it out cus i fell in love with it when i heard it n i thought of her right away…
OK so I am down the list a bit but “wither” by Dream Theater is the best/closest to how I feel Ivy exists both around Piscary and Rachael. her inner thoughts as it were.
Ivy’s ‘relationship’ with Rachel, especially in the first couple books fits “Strung Out” by Dana Fuchs sooo well I thought I was listening to Ivy.
The Beatles, I Want you(She’s so heavy) for Rachel
Be My Baby by the Ronettes.(for Rachel)
Concrete Blonde, Waliking in London and an old blues song by Gary Moore called I still got the blues for you.
Ooh! I found this song that seems perfect for Ivy and Rachel. The lyrics seem quite appropriate from Ivy’s perspective.
“Let Me In” by Save Ferris
I really think that:
Alice Cooper – Poison
would really fit Ivy’s personality
Forgot to include this one:
“Blood Red” by The Rose Chronicles
I just thing these songs suit Ivy’s character, not what she would listen to, perhaps.
“Lose Control” by Evanescence
“Pain” by Switchblade Symphony
“Suffering” by Jay Jay Johanson
“You’re Not Alone” by Olive
“Into The Blue” by Moby
The Beatles- Please Please Me (with Rachel)
Puddle of Mudd’s Blurry
Someone thought the same as me for Nightwish songs, but I think that “Beauty of the Beast” greatly fits Ivy’s character and how shes fighting the vampire blood lust.
That’s wicked cool you put music up! def gonna check them out
Fight inside by Red
I think it fits with Ivy and her, um, fight inside..
might be wrong though- havent read the last 3 books yet.
Bye Bye Blackbird by Diana Krall
thought if fit when Rachel thought Ivy was dead.
It´s his birthday today, so what about
Michael Jackson – Dangerous
Oh and Thousand Foot Krutch – New Drug
Rocksss
Bright Eyes – First Day Of My Life <3
So cute song…
I fell the song Bittersweet by Apocalypotica would fit the relationship that Ivy and Rachel have, because of Ivy’s longing for Rachel.
I would like to Suggest the song Bittersweet by Apocalypotica for Ivy, because of her longing for Rachel.
Mr Hudson & The Library – Bread And Roses <3
New playlist…I´m in….let me see….I miss
Robbie Williams – Feel
