I'm glad I wasn't raised like other kids in my Generation, I listen to 80's, Jazz, and Classical

Me too, but I believe I would've got into good music by myself eventually anyway. I just got a head start, cause I was introduced to good stuff since I was really young.

You must be so cool because implying all music genre don't have anything good or bad in them.

Nah most music from this Generation just is not very good (IMO), The same chord Progression has been used in most music forever (A-B-A-B-C and such) Most Music I listen to is stuff like the Eagles, A little bit of Journey, Weird Al, Music from John Phillip Sousa, John Williams, Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and 60's Westerns.

Most of the music of the previous decades was not very good either. It just seems that way because only the good stuff is remembered, so you're only exposed to the concentrated goodness.

+1.

There's tons of good music made today, but you won't find much of it by listening to the radio. If you don't know good artists post-1990, it's only because you haven't heard them.

No Joke.

Though, I prefer music today that does not have Vocals. I really like soundtrack music to various movies.

I listened to this song before I went down Rin's path and it fit well, so, understandably, my mind was blown when I listened to this again after reading Rin's path. Classic stoner song as well, so the personality connection is obvious. I hope this wasn't an unintentional spoiler.

I love this song, and as I was listening to it earlier today, I decided the tone and lyrics both match Rin's route pretty well (especially "What words do I use, to try and explain" and "Removed from all the people who could never understand"). It could work pretty well for the game in general, too, I suppose.

Listening to this song while reading your "Insights on Rin" post was pretty relaxing. A good way to end the night. :P

I had an epiphany and remembered this song, it had Emi written all over it. So I'm a bit of an Iron Maiden fan, sue me.

Since I'm actually writing a fic using music as a 'base'...

I'll give off a few (all by Supercell):
Hanako: さよならメモリーズ
Shizune: 星が瞬くこんな夜に
Emi: LOVE & ROLL
Misha: 君の知らない物語
Misha (Mk.2): 私え

Call this shameless plugging but...well, yeah I have my reasons. readdrabblesinmelodynao

Not a suggestion of any song but I don't feel creating another thread just for this question is warranted.

So, I wanted to ask, do all the girls have a theme song? I know that Emi's is "Standing Tall", Rin's is "Parity", Shizune's (I think) is "The Student Council" and Hanako's (I also think) is "Painful History" (despite the fact that the first dialog scene with her you have "Everyday Fantasy" playing on the background).

Does Lilly also have hers?

Hearing the beginning of this song reminds me of Hanako's bad ending... :cry:
