Show me your character playlists!

Posted 5 years, 10 months ago (Edited 5 years, 6 months ago) by hedgemaze

I can't believe I haven't seen this thread before, honestly!

A lot of us have associated theme songs or playlists for our characters, relationships, or stories-- show off your favorites here!

How do you choose songs? Do you pick songs whose lyrics fit the character, songs the character might listen to, songs whose feel reminds you of them-- or other reasons? I'd love to hear your thought process!

Threads that can help you find songs for your characters:

I am a giant music weeb, of course I got playlists LMAO I got one for these two, but not a lot of the songs are exactly... Happy! They fit them or their story in general, and just stuff that reminds me of them whether together or individually. Here's a selection of songs off of it

- Blackmail, My Buried Child, God Damn The Sun, all by Swans

- Dogs, Sheep, Have a Cigar, The Final Cut, all by Pink Floyd

- Lovesong by The Cure, something something forcing a love song on there because i'm desperate for them to get together

- Majestic by Wax Fang, which just so happens to be the happiest song on that playlistKLJBDG;KJFDG thanks to my friend who listens to happier shit than me!!

I don’t make too many playlists for my characters, but when I do it’s usually a combo of fitting lyrics and music they’d listen to!

Oh I always love to make a playlist when I'm either designing a character or conceptualizing them!

Haru has one here 💜
Raijin has one on YouTube ❤
Renegade has a very small one on YouTube as well for the player in his page code 💚 (this one is based more on what his band sounds like/would be inspired by rather than personality/themed things like the other two playlists)

Randy SherbetToons

I don't have a playlist.. but the songs I associate with him are Animals by Maroon 5, The Zombie Song by Stephanie Mabey, and We Will Commit Wolf Murder by Of Montreal

I have a TON of playlists for my OCs. Normally I select songs that give off their vibes, describes their personality, or describes their backstory and compile them all into one playlist, and then music they would/do listen to are separate playlists.

Here's a few that I listen to the most:

Carmel (she's not uploaded yet): these are songs that describe her

Nellie: these are songs they listen to

Max: these are songs that describe him

Bembe: these are songs that describe him

Most of the characters who I have playlists for don't have TH pages, unfortunately, so I don't really have much to show :"
