Letter B!

Here's a little blast from the past. Outkast with B.O.B.! That's Bombs over Baghdad.
I generally don't like poppy party music, but this song is just so much fun!

(it took all my effort not to do some metal like "Backbone" or "Blood and Thunder" or "Bränd Mark" or "Bring Them to Light". Oops, there I went. Who knew B was such a metal letter?)

 

C

Carolus Rex - Sabaton

An old favourite of mine that has been rattling about in my head, and this ABC exercise has reminded me anew. Thus, here it is.
Sabaton is a Scandinavian metal band (genre alternatively called Eurorock), one that I enjoy listening to. I hope you do also.

"To the skies, see Carolus rise!"

Of Monsters and Men are one of my favourite bands Their lyrics are so bizzare, but the songs are still amazing in their own right. I'm so glad that I found one and didn't have to post either a MIKA song (bcause those have some interesting lyrics) or either Imagine Dragons or Olly Murs.

 

Letter F!

Forever Lost, by God is an Astronaut. This is one of those songs I'd go as far as to call beautiful.

Timbaland, Give It To Me.

I remember when this song came out, it was such a snazzy song jam to when I was a teenager. <3

Cat Empire are my FAVOURITE FREAKING BAND.

 

Letter I!

The letter J!

Whoohoow! The letter K!

This is one of my favourite songs right now. I did this for a music assignment, too!

 

Robbie Williams and Michael Buble are two of my favourite singes because they do amazing big bag stuff behind their vocals. This is one of my favourite Robbie Williams covers.

I'm going to post this under the assumption that Sachi-Shimazu put the letter L down. (I'm assuming it, as otherwise it's a bit hard to tell.)

M

Mr Monokuma's Lesson - Danganronpa

For those unaware, Monokuma is basically an evil robot teddy bear with a talent for causing people to fight each other in the name of despair, and the word 'subtle' is not in his vocabulary. Despite this he is a joker of the highest degree (though not exactly a nice one), making all of his silly remarks only serve to rub salt in the wound as someone you love to hate.

And yes, that's his face in the thumbnail. It is basically exactly what you would expect. He is also the mascot for the entire series, despite being a major antagonist - and he knows it. (Fourth wall? What's that?)

I wish I would get everything right in my post the first time, so that way I wouldn't have to go back and make a bunch of tiny edits of stuff that I missed.

 

For the letter O,

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Otherside.

Depeche Mode, Precious. I have always enjoyed Depeche Mode and this was probably one of the few songs that I have heard from them when younger. (:

 

Q

Quick!!! - Hyadain

I'm posting this track for two reasons:
First, it is 1 of only 2 tracks I know whose names start with the letter Q (and I didn't want to use the other one because it's a spoiler for a certain video game, despite that I like the other one more);
Second, I wish to hurry this little game along as I don't think other people know many Q songs either. Seriously, why is Q such an unpopular letter to start with? Then again, there are probably a lot of songs called "Quest for the Something-or-Other"...

Hyadain is a Japanese(?) music artist who is known for doing his own stunts, especially when it comes to his voice - all of his songs are remixes of video game tracks (he's most well known for his Mega Man and Final Fantasy renditions), and they're all done with vocals - with his own voice. And he does a very good job of it. I'm fairly sure that a lot of his lyrics also slightly mirror things that have happened to him in his life, so it's an interesting microcosm, for lack of a better term. Below is his rendition of Quick Man's theme from Mega Man 2.

I'll give you fair warning; some of the pictures used, although good quality, you may find a bit odd.
(If I need to, I'll go get the other Q track instead.)

"I never stop rushing because I'm Quick Man
Hurry up!!"

 

For R

Rise (Skillet)

Not my favorite Skillet song, but oh whale, still nice.

 

S

Surrender by Egypt Central

Dammit, as it turns out I have a good few favourite songs beginning with 'S' on my MP3 player. Oh well, try this one for now, though this band has some better songs.
