Kanukle Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 I wonder what kind of song would go with each charaters in Psychonauts. Personally, I think Milla's would be Abba's Dancing Queen
DarthAve Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 I declare this board made of awesome. The censor's song would be No! by They Might be Giants.
Woodnote Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Raz - The Chimbley Sweep by the Decemberists (Though I'm not sure why...)
DarthAve Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Nils-We Fly High-Jim Jones. Somthing tells me that Nils would frequently yell "BALLIN'!" if he existed. xDDD
martmeister Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Lili - My Boyfriend's Back by The Angels --well, Raz is back and is pissed Phoebe - Free Bird by Lynyrd Skynyrd --good Zippo flicking song Agent Cruller - Rock You Like a Hurricane by The Scorpions --He just pwns everybody Franke/Kitty - I Feel Pretty; Hair --They're so obsessed with beauty Raz - Step Up by Drowning Pool --for facing all sorts of challenges to save the world Maloof - Godfather theme Mikhail - The Soviet National Anthem by the Red Army Orchestra (forgot exact name)
DarthAve Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Franke/Kitty - I Feel Pretty; Hair --They're so obsessed with beauty I thought that was from West Side Story. Vernon - A Quick One, While He's Away by The Who. It's a story song, AN AWESOME ONE! and it's 9 minutes long.
martmeister Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 ^^^Probably so. Sorry, I was putting 2 songs, separated by a semi-colon. Hair is actually a song by The Cowsills. I'm pretty sure it's in a musical.
Holly Ziviene Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Boyd's theme is either Every Day is Exactly the Same or Right Where it Belongs, and Fred's theme is Only (All by Nine Inch Nails). Bobby's theme is probably Kung Fu by Tenacious D or Kick Some Ass by Stroke 9.
Poopdogjr Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 The Dog artists song would be who let the dogs out. No, wait. It would be blue skies. But instead of blue skies, it's blue puppies.
DylanMay Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Vernon's would be that Weird Al song, Albuquerque. How do you spell? Whatever. Or that Weird Al song about the drive through. Both are really, really long and random stories that make no sense.
martmeister Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Boyd's also I Think I'm Gonna Die Today. I don't remember the artist or if it's just a verse in the song.
Klia Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 If I was to take the humouress view on Boyd Cooper, "We Didn't Start the Fire". It's very hard to come up with a serious song for Psychonauts. The perfect songs, I believe, are the ones in the game. That's what I thought was going to be discussed here as I had something, that I thought, was very interesting about Sasha's themes. The songs that would be their theme songs, would have to be off-kilter, toungue-in-the-cheek yet creepy all the same. For the Asylum Patients, I prescribe "Frontier Psychiatrist" by the Avalanches. First one at the top, if there are any problems, please tell me.
DylanMay Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 ...what about Sasha's theme? Is it the underlying Beethovan measures when the censors are released?
martmeister Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 ^^^I thought Sasha's brain music was fitting.
DarthAve Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 Sasha Nein - Closer (NIN) lol OMG are you a Sasha/Raz shipper?
Woodnote Posted March 31, 2007 Posted March 31, 2007 OMG are you a Sasha/Raz shipper? Not all the time.
Klia Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 ...what about Sasha's theme? Is it the underlying Beethovan measures when the censors are released? Not only that, but the sinister, eretheral undertones in the song "Sasha's Immaculate Mind." Which in turn, makes the title undenyingly ironic. It also suggests that his mind, while certainly much different and more sane than other brains of the Psychonauts world, is not incapable of insanity. Also suggesting that any brain is not as far away from insanity as we would like to think, and this is the sense I got with the entire game, just Sasha's world, and music, spelled it out for me. That's doesn't mean what the game was trying to say is that we're all psychopaths, but that something as complex as the brain cannot be spelled out in black and white, and that we are all a little more neurotic than we would like to think.

DarthAve Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Lili- You Know I'm No Good by Amy Winehouse. Sothing tells me this dark jazz/r&b is really Liliesque. Besides, Lili's a total bad girl on the outside.
DylanMay Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 Oh my God! Couch Oleander = "Megalomaniac" by Incubus! XD And for Fred... what's the song that goes "Oh my name's Napoleon Bonaparte and have I got a deal for you, I'm in danger of being blown apart so I make this appeal to you? Da-daaaaaa, da da dada..." It's about the Louisiana purchase but it's still fitting.
DarthAve Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Bringing this back, cause it's awesome. Butcher dad - The Go Meat chant from the hillshire farm commericial. Y'know. "Go meat, meat. Go meat, meat. Go meat, meat. Go meat, meat. That salar rocks, the best! Make it easy at your desk! It's second to none just add leatus(sp) and you're done! That's crazy girl, I swear, there is so much stuff in there sa-sa-sa-salad, YEAH, the meaty salad, WHAT? Because you hungry, you hungry, yo mamma says you hungry! When I say hillshire you say farms. Hillshire! FARMS! GO MEAT!" Elton's would be Sea of Love.
