Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones
seems like a decent Rin Neutral ending theme

She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
At such a cost

There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain't life unkind?

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

I posted this in another thread, but it applies here. I added my thoughts on why in parenthesis.

Songs that fit each character (missing Nomiya, Sea and Meiko):
Miki - Leader by Bif Naked(just seems right for her never-say-die attitude)
Suzu - Wonderboy by Tenacious D(fantasy mixed with reality seems to be her constant struggle)
Kenji - Bonecracker by Shocore(pretty much when he goes into screaming-mode)
Rin - Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf(this ought to be obvious)
Hanako - Crawling by Linkin Park(rediscovered this song playing her route)
Emi - RockStar(It's Almost Over Now) by N.E.R.D.(a decent Emi-anthem, I think)
Shizune - Lonely Train by Black Stone Cherry(constantly pushing forward despite feeling misunderstood)
Misha - Hide & Seek by Namie Amuro(honestly I have no idea what the lyrics mean, but the beat fit)
Lilly - Flora's Secret by Enya(seems to describe her well)
Hisao - Still Alive by Jonathan Coulton(this is largely for my own humor, but the mix of science and phoenix-like rebirth speaks to his character)
Yuuko - Somebody That I Used To Know by Lindsey Pavao(her lost boyfriend could easily have inspired the writing of this song)
Mutou - Riders On The Storm by The Doors(I think he stands at the threshold of that storm, but may be trapped inside)
Nurse - The Nurse Who Loved Me by A Perfect Circle(I think he'd laugh hearing this song)
Jigoro - Gettin' Jiggy Wit' It by Will Smith(I could see him strutting down the street listening to this)
Hideaki - Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley (damn straight, rick roll'd)(a lot of people felt rick roll'd by his androgynous appearance)
Akira - F*ck The System by System of a Down(ignoring social norms seems to be her forte)

I even picked ones for some of my OCs:
Aiko - Nerdy And I Know It by Nerd Alert(she's a math-nerd and a gamer-geek at heart)
Tadao - The Unforgiven by Metallica(moody, sullen and aloof, as well as subdued and contemplative)
Amaya - It's All About The Pentiums by Weird Al Yankovik(I think she'd be cranking this song if it came up)
Mr. Miyoto - When You Leave (Numa Numa) by Alina & Basshunter(just seemed to fit)

Don't watch if you plan to watch the K-On anime, cause it's a big spoiler, and the series is great.




Haven't really figured out why it did yet, but it did.

This is a great one: "Trickle Down FX" by Jimmy Wahlsteen. Beautiful and emotionally diverse, like the game itself.

(Then again, every pretty song that comes my way seems to remind me of KS. :) I hope it stays that way.)

Alright, hold it. Hold it right there.I already posted here, but I gave it some more thought, so I got a thing here.
I'm gonna make this post a little longer to catch your attention.
Spoiler tags, cause everybody reads those. Keep reading.
Right?
Are we there yet?
I'm gonna assume I have your attention now.

I've got a little challange for you. Think of Hanako. Done? Good.

Now, I challange you to come up with a more fitting song for her than GGD's Iris. Here's some lyrics so you can get a better idea of what I'm talking about.

Challange accepted? Looking forward to any responses.

Teehee.


Seriously though, Iris actually fits pretty well.

I need get my hands on Donuts. Sucks that it was Dilla's final album before his death...which was like three days after the release of Donuts.

Anyway, here's another song that kinda reminds me of Hanako, HIsao, and Rin:

Lost Forever (A remix of "Searching for Friends" from Final Fantasy III USA/VI JPN)



While more so easy for HIsao to search for and make friends, it's rather difficult for Hanako and Rin to do the same. Plus, Hanako lost her family and any sort of self-worth in the house fire, thus "Lost Forever". On top of that, the remix is rather depressing when pitted against the original, which while sad, did had a feeling of hope to it.

Tonight's the night. My idiot brain is in Katawa Shoujo-mode and my playlist is stuck in the early Nineties.

Totally Kenji.

Also the chorus of I Just Wanna Run by the Downtown Fiction fits Emi pretty well.

I just wanna run
Hide it away
Run because they're chasing me down
I just wanna run
Throw it away
Run before they're finding me out


The first they refers to the pain she's trying to hide and the second they represents the people she won't get close to.
