So, basically, we take a character and give them a theme song
Examples:
Christina Rush-Maneater by Nelly Furtado
Scotty Valens-Sexyback by Justin Timberlake
Let's get started!

Oh, lolgirlyy, you have NO idea how much I love that you've made a thread along these lines. The first sign of fandom obssession, for me, is when I start listening to random songs on WinAmp or my walkman, and start thinking "this song would totally suit this character". So, just a few, off the top of my head:
Scotty Valens: R.E.M. - "Falls To Climb".
Lilly Rush: Glen Phillips - "Cleareyed".
Kat Miller: Shania Twain - "I Ain't Going Down".
Nick Vera... I have a tonne. Guster - "Centre of Attention", Soul Asylum - "The Great Exaggerator", Gin Blossoms - "29"... the list goes on.
Ellen Rush: Keith Urban - "Nobody Drinks Alone".
I absolutely cannot wait to see which songs other people on the board like to associate with which characters, 'cause everyone's perception is different and it's always fascinating to see how other people interpret these things, and just, yea. I'm gonna stop waxing lyrical (if you'll excuse the pun) about this now.

Oh, man. iTunes is going to make a mint off me with this thread.
The only one I can think of right off is Simon and Garfunkel's "I Am A Rock" for Lil. I saw a video on YouTube that featured that song, and it fits her to a tee.

Thank you lolgirlyy. Though I preferred my "Bullet Proof... I Wish I Was" suggestion. More Lilly ideas: How about anything by the band Rush? There's More To Life Than This - Bjork Hey Boy Hey Girl - The Chemical Brothers I Grieve - Peter Gabriel Hey You - Pink Floyd Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own - U2 |

How about anything by the band Rush? My first reaction to this was, naturally, to LOL... then it occurred to me that "One Little Victory" is actually perfect for her. |

This is about CC characters only not users on this board. Please stay on topic... , are you not familiar with the band called Rush? They're from Canada, and supposedly they are are big in Chicago. They've been around since the 1970s: - Tom Sawyer is one of their most famous songs, - Fly By Night is another song you often here on classic rock radio, and - 2112 is a classic rocker song too! Wow, I was only eleven when this album came out in 1976!  ;D |

lolgirlyy, are you not familiar with the band called Rush? That wasn't posted by lolgirlyy. Based on her age I'd say it is very unlikely that she knows about the band Rush. I must admit to only having a passing acquaintance with their music myself.
Thank you for your earlier post lolgirlyy with the song lyrics. I enjoyed it.
More suggestions for CC character theme songs please. |

Lilly
Oasis - Cast no shadow.
I mean it as a bit of a tongue in cheek in reference to the zombie looking days. the lyrics say : "As he faced the sun he cast no shadow" (we can pretend it says she not he).

 Okay, Lilly-What Hurts The Most(CASCADA) <---idk why, just... and, idk why this one, but when I was listening to the Beauty and the Beast song "Something There", I thought of Lilly.  Before I even thought of Belle, also...strange... Strange, RichE, since that is an episode of Hannah Montana, not a song, but now that you mention it...hm.
