Music for Felarya - Post songs

I like to pair up music with stories and artwork-music that matches the art and it's mood. I've listened to many kinds of music, but only Stavinsky's "Firebird Suite" captures the essence of Felarya. I grant you, it is because of how it was used in Fantasia 2000. But, even without that association, this piece captures the promise; beauty; and the danger that a Felarya holds. It does Felarya justice.

Submitted for you approval, in the hope that you'll share music that fits Felarya, is Igor Stravinsky's "The Firebird Suite"-conducted by the master himself. It evokes the feelings that a human, if not rendered blind by a single minded focus on treasure, would feel in response to Felarya: A combination of awe, fear, and reverence for this majestic land.

(For those wanting the full 30 minute version, click here.)

Ah yes, the Firebird. I remember playing that in High School, and man, the Cello part is boring...

But anyway, I feel there was a previous topic regarding music representing Felarya... but it may've been different.

But yeah, I'm gonna use a piece of VGM here. It's a pretty basic battle tune from Mother 3, but I think it fits pretty well.



You're walking through the jungle, everything seems calm at first, but your hearts are accelerating, then all of a sudden-

*pounce*

*nom*

*gulp*

Ever since the Nostalgia Critic showed this song, I have since felt that it captures the feelings of those who travel Felarya but are not at the top of the food chain.

why do I for some reason want to link the song from fern gully where Tim Curry sang :p oh well I would go for either the jaws theme or some of the music from lord of the rings.

I like to think of someone getting chased through the evernight forest.

The learics feel vary Felarya she sings about having him in her belly dont git more felarya then that
Note my frist time enbeding a video yay ;3




And i could see this ass vivins theam song

Another good song, especially for moments where one is carefully making one's way through a (seemingly) safe part of the jungle.

this thread is a good idea
it's intriguing to see the diferent styles ^^

Eh, why not?

Do I really have to be the one to do the obvious one?

LOL why didnt i think of welcome to the jungle lol

What every jet biker and fast Craft pilot should be thinking of when passing through.

Beat me to it.

Anyway, here's something different. I thought the mood fits well, and the primal drum beat really gets to me in this one.

Lately, when I listen to this song, I imagine a man telling Lady Lesona that her desires for human dominance will result in mutual misery. That the Maples (humanity) needs to accept it's place beneath the Oaks (the preds); after all, can the preds help it if they like the way they're made?

Hatchet, Axes, and Saw-in a word, only death for both can result from Lesona's arrogance.

Of course, such honesty earns him a curse and exile. Here's the lyrics. (it's a song about conflicting interests in general; read into it what you want.)

Quote :

There is unrest in the forest,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas.

The trouble with the maples,
(And they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light.
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made.
And they wonder why the maples
Can't be happy in their shade.

There is trouble in the forest,
And the creatures all have fled,
As the maples scream "Oppression!"
And the oaks just shake their heads

So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
"The oaks are just too greedy;
We will make them give us light."
Now there's no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw. (Emphasis mine)

I always thought this song would be perfect for Déméchrelle,

Eh, no. For her, this is better.

mainly the title and the lyrics say it all. Rock enthusism in tthis place!

Spoiler:

This is a song that always cheers me up when I feel down; it's about making peace with an imperfect world. A sense of acceptance of how the world works, but continuing to live joyously; this, I think, is an all to rare feeling among humans in Felarya. But, those who feel it are probably the ones who stand the best chance of making it.

I considered "Hemispheres", but nah.

Cool idea! Being an incurable videogame nerd, I shall provide a bit of music from Legend of Mana, which I think fits quite well with the theme of someone making their way through the deadly and beautiful jungles we all know and love.

I have a real 'thing' for the entire GOW 3 soundtrack. I know some may not agree, but its got plenty of songs that get the Felaryan juices flowing. XP

My favorite part of "Tides of Chaos" begins at the 2:30 mark

Okay, being the KMFDM fan I am, I have to post at least one song that fits.
Go to Hell - KMFDM (As performed on their 20th Anniversary Tour)
Go to Hell (F*ck MTV Mix) - KMFDM

(^As it appeared in the original album, Naive)

A vacation in a foreign land
Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Now you remember what the draftsman said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You be the hero of the neighborhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Smiling faces as you wait to land
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Shots ring out in the dad of night
The sergeant calls (stand up and fight)
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You've got your orders better shoot on sight
Your finger's on the trigger
But it don't seem right
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Oh, oh, you're in the army now
