A book n' music meme
Mar. 23rd, 2004 03:00 pmThis is a little meme I made all by myself ^_^
Choose a book or series of books that you really like. Post the title on your livejournal, along with a song title and lyrics that remind you of the book(s) or a character in the book(s), and list why. Have fun! ^^
My book: The Forbidden Game trilogy
Song: Haunted - Evanessence"Haunted"
long lost words whisper slowly to me
still can't find what keeps me here
when all this time i've been so hollow inside
i know you're still there
watching me wanting me
i can feel you pull me down
fearing you loving you
i won't let you pull me down
hunting you i can smell you - alive
your heart pounding in my head
watching me wanting me
i can feel you pull me down
saving me raping me watching me
watching me...wanting me
i can feel you pull me down
fearing you...loving you
i won't let you pull me down
This song reminds me mostly of Julien, the antagonist, but also reminds me a lot of the beginning of the second book.
Why: Julien is a frightfully beautiful and hauntingly romantic character throughout the books as he stalks the protagonist, Jenny. Jenny is terrified of him, but can't help but fall in love with him. This song plays on a mix of emotions very similar to hers, and gives the haunting, creepy feeling of being stalked, as well as the mysterious, ghostly feeling; whatever is stalking you isn't human. The second verse ("hunting you...") sounds like something Julien would say.
