[DomLuka] A TOSOM SOUNDTRACK ? ! ? !

[AudioAl]

Hi, fellow Domaholics!

 

I can't make up my mind whether Oliver and David are indeed one and the same ... but I do agree with virtually everybody else here that this story is DEFINITELY C R E E P Y ! But thanks to Dom's phenomenal writing skills -- I'M HOOKED on another Luka Masterpiece!

 

Anyway, a few days ago Nickolasjames8 posted that he enjoyed listening to some Pink Floyd while reading TOSOM. I can see that! And Dom has posted about music he listens to while writing. I wonder what he might choose for TOSOM? This all made me think that if there is any Dom story that begs for a "soundtrack" ... THIS IS IT !

 

So, I'm curious. What might you choose to listen to while reading TOSOM? What do you think would make the perfect soundtrack for this strange but totally intriguing story? What songs? What artists? CD's? I don't care what type of music your choice might be. Let me know your suggestions, please, as I have something in mind I can hopefully share with you later. MANY THANKS !

Another Brick in the Wall (sorry, Pink Floyd goes too well with this story) even covers of this song go very well... if not better with this story.

[NickolasJames8]

I'd say every song between Hey You and Comfortably Numb is perfect for this story, too

[Maximoff]

Red Right Hand by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds goes very well with the 'feel' of the whole story.

Anything with a cello (I think), the cello (or chello)-ist in Damien Rice's band made a great cover on Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix.

Umm yeah.

With all the mentions of how Oliver is special needs, I was thinking Special Needs by Placebo. Pink Floyd works wonderfully, too, though usually I don't like listening to music while reading.

Something really creepy, like "It's a Small World after All" from the Disney ride.

[shadowgod]

Its a small world? lol I guess but Id start seeing all the characters as bad wooden puppets lining the sides of the lake as Oliver and Frank row by in Olivers boat...

 

 

I was thinking black eyed dog by Nick Drake or Boadicea by Enya or even Bad Moon Rising by CCR and hellelujah by Jeff Buckly All of those are good and creepy in their own right

 

Just thought of another one There's no home for you here by The white Stripes

Omg... that so made my day.

[shadowgod]

HAHA just thought of another one Secretley by Skunk Anaise....

[DomLuka]

The Music I listen to while writing OS:

 

Hurt: Vol 1

Evans Blue: The Melody and the Energetic Nature of Volume

10 years: The Autumn Effect

Papa Roach: Getting Away with Murder

Three Days Grace: one-x

 

And, on occasion I mix in a little Zombie and Clutch

[Boy In Doubt]

Ooh, I have one!

 

"Unwell" by Matchbox Twenty 'cause of the lyrics:

 

"I'm not crazy I'm just a little unwell. I know right now you can't tell. But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see...a different side of me."

[NickolasJames8]

oooh, I know...Jonathan Coultans cover of Baby Got Back goes good with this story too

[shadowgod]

in keeping with the creepiness of its a small world... how about the siamese cat song covered by bobby mcfarren

I think the latest album by Midlake "The Trials of Van Occupanther" fits it perfectly. It's weird and moody and spooky and it tells a sad story. I recommend it to anyone -it's really excellent in a way that not too many albums are today.

 

I also want to say that I really love TOSOM, and I love the people at GA -I just don't say it enough!
