So, I have to ask, if you were to make a soundtrack for the Animorph books, which songs would you include, and why?

I'll start with the song that prompted this post. When I was reading #54 I was listening to "lead sails and a paper anchor" by atreyu, and unwittingly stumbled upon the song that I think perfectly portrays the emotions of that book - melodic and haunting, with a lot of pain and indignation, particularly in the verses and the bridge of the song, yet the chorus is still incredibly moving, exuding a sense of hope . I thought it was a perfect match for the emotional struggles of the end of the series.

So what about you guys, any songs that run through your mind when you think about/read the books?

That's a good idea ^^ But may you add the Youtube of the song(s), please? ;)

Here is the song you said:

It's quite good ^^

The song Sunday Morning, by No Doubt, especially the bridge (at around 2:45 on the video), reminds me of book 19:

The Last of the Haunted, by An Acoustic Sin, always reminds me of the Yeerks, but it's not on YouTube. I might rectify that soon.

EDIT: Fixed. Muahaha.

I also found this, for the Yeerks:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKprch2ywJY[/youtube]
(It was written to fit with The Invasion of the Body Snatchers)

For Elfangor & Loren:

For Rachel and the Ellimist, if you change JC by Ellimist:
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YStnLJ2AJQ8[/youtube]

Maybe this for the end of Rachel (with Tobias):

For both Animorphs & Remnants & Everworld:

and this for Hel:

and of course:

who already was in the actual OST.

For the 1st book of Remnants:

and

Maybe I listen too much VAST... ^^' The thing is... their songs are really good as OST...

VAST is a really good band ^^
And I also really like Invasion by Eisley.
If we find good songs, we could make an OST and pack it with the Ebooks! That'd be awesome!
But first, we need to find more songs/musics ^^ And then vote for the best ones.
Let's do it?

the perfect song for Crayak is 'Entombment of a Machine' by Job For A Cowboy

I Wanna Be Sedated, by The Ramones, is perfect for the last day Jake spent as a controller.

Avenged Sevenfold - M.I.A.
I think it could fit for the Animorphs, especially with Jake after the war and the troubles he was having at 7:00->.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8SWV5FsCd8[/youtube]


Avenged Sevenfold - Crossroads
Rachel when she was dealing with her dark side and being tempted by Crayak
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47Ov8Fn-0aQ[/youtube]

Avenged Sevenfold - Clairvoyant Disease
Could be for someone who is infested by a yeerk. Especially at 2:40->
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybo9335ImbU[/youtube]

Staind - For you
I think it could fit for Tom or anyone who is infested by a yeerk.

@Vanish: Not bad at all! I particularly like MIA!

I was looking for a good battle song (I'm facing some tough challenges IRL), and found Man on a Mission, by Gamma Ray. It's so good, just reading the lyrics gave me chills. It's also perfect for the Animorphs; almost every line of the song can be matched to part of the series.

This is perfect for any of the Tobias books(i.e.,13,23,33,43 and 49)in my mind atleast.
