Title: Songs that remind you of Touhou characters
Post by: Tengukami 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 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htuxb-m4-ng), 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" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2y2GZHuukw) really reminds me of Reimu.

Behemoth's "Slave Shall Serve" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oey85FGHOHc) 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" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yI5zpgHqt3s).

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" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZ1Mi77nogQ).

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

Whoa. I was listening to that just half an hour ago... never made that connection before. Innnteresting.

Maybe I should actually read the lyrics.

Remilia listens to Mozart's choral pieces (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi8vJ_lMxQI), clearly.

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".

*Shrugs* Seems to describe Remilia's general attitude to me.

I always associate the song "Bitch" with Suwako.

The chorus practically describes Suwako~ take a looksee at the lyrics sometime :3

is it wrong that now I imagine Remilia using moves such as Kaiser Wave?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5l4dqk2DPk#t=1m48s

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

Yanni's The Storm (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSrH_oqnrl0) and For All Seasons (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ynv9pyPr0fg) both remind me of Yuugi, Suika, and maybe Marisa - they both seem to radiate happiness, excitement, and general joie de vivre. Prelude & Nostalgia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U79esEAO7kk&feature=related), 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 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snj8EGgCa5Q) 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 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPOshjF1c9w) is a good example of this. I may update this later as I think more about the subject.

This should be Sanae's theme, or that or Moriya in general. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-2u3CePrUk)

For some very strange reason, I match Shou with 'Eye of the Tiger'.

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.

Anything from the Seiken Densetsu(Secret of Mana) Series...it reminds me of Patchouli since her theme is similar to those songs...

Patchouli's theme reminds me of Secret of Mana
Secret of Mana reminds me of Patchouli
