Your character's song just for fun

[maximiliennoelvier]

I think this is in the right place considering its not a game
anyway so I had an idea what if all our characters had their own song each, in cannons case they can sue the song they already have reprise it or make themselves and extra one, or if they never had one give themselves one. Should be quite fun to be honest well hopefully. You can have more than one song

So here is my idea for Maxi's song

Song Name: Help me help You (a tiny bit of the theme would be look down)
What's it about: The Song is more about Maxi's desire to help the poor out coming to the conclusion that things are just only going to get worse. He laments on their suffering in this song.
Key Words and lyrics: "Looking down" "I look down" "Just help me, Help you I Wont look away," "Does it make a difference?" "A Life in the dark, a life in the gutter."
Is anyone else in this song: not really but anyone could walk past in this song

So yeah that's the general template up to you if you want to add anything to that

[enjolras]

Song Name: A La Volonté Du Peuple (performed by Michel Sardou).
Link: Here.
What Is It About: The French version of ‘Do You Hear The People Sing?’ The association between wine and blood; between blood and martyrdom. The poignantly poetic obligation of friendship. The dawning of hope. The illumination and triumph of a liberated France.
Keywords and Lyrics: ‘Remplis ton cœur d'un vin rebelle et à demain, ami fidèle.’ ‘Qui danseront de joie au grand vent de la liberté.’ ‘Pour illuminer notre terre et changer la vie.’
Anyone Else In This Song: Courfeyrac (in most versions).

Song Name: The Fates Duel

Key Words and lyrics: " A swish and A flick" "Down You go" "A Time a go a long time since can you not let goooooooo?" "You toook her life, her heart her lovvvvvve" "You think I care?"
Anyone Else In This Song: Fredrick

[PAUL CHAUVELIN]

Oh so many possibilities. There's a song called "Falcon in the Dive" that Chauvelin sings in the Scarlet Pimpernel musical, which some kind soul has made into a video starring Martin Shaw. But that's kinda cheating. (If you want to know why I love him so, though, that video is the answer).

I finally brought the more mainstream possibilities down to two:

Oingo Boingo's "Skin" and Assemblage 23's "Damaged"

Both are about coming to a point in his life where he starts to rethink how he's lived it. Unlike Falcon, which is defiant, they're pensive and melancholy, wondering whether he's already passed some point of no return.

In "Skin," he's survived by wearing a mask all his life and he's not sure if there's any 'him' anymore.
"This is someone else's story, someone that I never knew."
"Is there anybody in there in this self-inflicted tomb?"
"There's a heart that's cold as ice in a vault that's made of stone."
"If you peel away the armor is it too late to begin?"

In "Damaged," he cares about someone, wanting to change but loving her too much to hurt her by bringing her into his world.
"I'm damaged, but somehow I've managed this far. But I don't know if I can find my way back home."
"There is beauty in hardship, there are poems in grief."
"Lost in the cynical dusk. Set adrift in the worry that I've no one to trust."
"I can reach for the surface, try to pull myself free. But the last thing I want is to drag you down here with me."

[gustave]

Aside from the songs I've written myself for Gustave. There are few others I have faint ideas about but nothing concrete on.

I'm writing a song called, 'The Field of Waterloo' another monologue that Gustave sings to himself as he's marching to do battle with the various Revolutionaries. Lyrics include. "I march out to another war I cannot win." and, "This battle will be my last, I will stand-fast. I will not give an inch of ground. I will not be beaten down."

Another one I have in the works is simply called. 'Watching' detailing Gustave's torrid affair with a woman who is yet unknown. A duet sung between the two includes lyrics such as, "To love you is to break apart my shell." as well as "To hate you is to break apart my heart." and to round it off, "We are to love... or to lose for tonight is our night."

[adrienne]

Song Name: Lady Marmalade / The Show Must Go On – Moulin Rouge.
Link: here and here
What Is It About: Lady Marmalade is pretty self-explanatory.
Keywords and Lyrics: In the show must go on, “Inside my heart is breaking /My make-up may be flaking /But my smile still stays on” pretty much explains how Adrienne keeps her feelings to herself. The whole of Lady Marmalade is pretty key to Adrienne, must the key lyric would be “Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir”
Anyone Else In This Song: I guess other courtesan's.

(I'll make this more detailed later on)

[maximiliennoelvier]

Song Name: Stop If you Dare
What's it about: This would be an argument between brothers. The Oldest and Max. The Oldest actually dies after this but not because of anything that happens in the argument
Key Words and lyrics: "Stop me If you Dare, "I wont go anywhere" "You Say you do, you a coward through and throughhhhhhhh" "Two lives, one is enough" "you must Choose Family or Street." "I won't say it, but I will do it, This will not go on, you will not take it on, brother my brother you think your in the right, but not at all, STOP ME OF YOU DAREEEEEE"
Is anyone else in this song: Max and His Oldest brother with one of the others in the background and is actually on the piano

Song Name: Blood oh Blood the Light I see
What's it about: Well im not giving anything away but its a very sad seen that may or may not come to pass. There is also two different versions of this scene and song. One maybe a bit sadder

Key Words and lyrics: "Blood Oh Blood, red as Can be, everywhere I see." "A Blast not gone past," "Light I see, Light that shines, from above." "Yes a foolish choice, but don't be sad, things will change, as the light wash over me." "Only Sleeping, not really leaving," " A comforting thought a Comforting voice, a comforting hand." "Blood Oh Blood with holes everywhere, don't you see, don't you see through fading eyes, through fading eyes a light in darknesses riseeeee"

Is anyone else in this song: There might be a few people

(one of these songs I may expand upon on a Journal Entry)

[maximiliennoelvier]

Song Name: Adventure in the air!
What's it about: This is a more happy song and is set in Calais after he has met Percy and Margo and then run of for some adventure
Key Words and lyrics: "Adventure in the air, adventure all around, what is lost is found," "Something new, something fresh just take a a step to the right" "Take a walk along the edge, just as thrilling as a chase, Take a chance take YOUR chance." "What it is to feel free."
