Songs that remind you of Touhou characters
« on: October 28, 2009, 07:35:26 PM »
What it says on the lid. What songs remind you of which Gensokyans?

Alternatively, what songs do you think which Gensokyans would like?

For my part:

I think Marisa would be a big fan of classic rock. Any time I hear "All Right Now" by Free, I'm reminded of her.

Reimu is a serious, no-nonsense kinda gal, so I can see her liking slightly poppish techno acts such as Faithless. "We Come One" really reminds me of Reimu.

Behemoth's "Slave Shall Serve" brings to mind Flandre, no question, although I think her sister's tastes would be more refined. Specifically, I can see Remilia sipping tea and listening to King Crimson's "Cirkus".

I think Alice would be a fan of that early 80s style New Wave-ish pop that's seeing a resurgence lately. Therefore, I see her sewing up dolls whilst bopping her head to La Roux's "In For the Kill".

That's just a few examples on my part. How about you guys?

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at the fact that the most recent comment to Mozart's arguably greatest achievement, and one of the finest pieces of music ever made, is "CUNT".

is it wrong that now I imagine Remilia using moves such as Kaiser Wave?

I can't think of musics that could relate to Touhou, atm..

neku: now for something important.
Translations.
How much time do you guys think it will take for HM to be translated? Besides everyone's story modes and the whole menus, there's also the fact that the way HM's programmed is different from all other games. I bet it'll take two months.

lusvik: I don't mind about playing HM in japanese. The language of punching other people is international.

Yanni's The Storm and For All Seasons both remind me of Yuugi, Suika, and maybe Marisa - they both seem to radiate happiness, excitement, and general joie de vivre. Prelude & Nostalgia, on the other hand, remind me more of Mokou - they're much more melancholy, and the age of the duduk (over 3,000 years old) fits well with the immortal Mokou. The name 'Nostalgia' can also be tied to Mokou's character. So Long My Friend could also fit Mokou, though I like to think of it as Yuyuko remembering her life as a human in a possible connection to the name. A lot of Yanni's more ... majestic music reminds me of both Kanako (being a goddess) and Byakuren (a human that became more than a human). A Night To Remember is a good example of this. I may update this later as I think more about the subject.

I was about to post that one, since after the release of MoF's demo, when someone posted this song on Pooshlmer as "Nitori's unnoficial theme", I can't hear it without thinking of her.
