Trashy Pop Songs & Your Character
Contains: 
language, trash

Bad Thread of the Day

presented by Viensa

 

You've already gone ahead and picked out great theme songs in this thread. You matched characters up with songs based on lyrics or deeper meanings. That is not this thread. This thread is for trashy pop (and possibly trashy rap and trashy rock) songs. If your character was a young person driving down the road and a song came on, which song would they turn up and say "AW WHAAAAT, THIS IS MY SONG." This is also pretending that they are not a hater, because haters to the left. Outside this thread. What song would they have on their ~ipod~ even if they had to shamelessly deny it and pretend someone else put it on there? What trashy pop song embodies your character, body and mind?

What do I mean by trashy pop? Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Ke$ha (note the dollar sign people, god), Beyonce, I don't know, CSS, Ladytron, whatever you think of. Idk, Enrique Inglesias?! Is your character a dirty dancer? Jesse McCartney? (High fivin' myself for that ref.) Adam Lambert? Idek. TRASHY (I use this term loosely) POP. Your serious choices can go in the other music thread but this is for TRASHY. RIDICULOUS. POP. Or rock or rap. It doesn't have to be trashy even, but you get points for being shameless with the music you pick.

You can dedicate songs to others, too. Just be ~*~shameless~*~, WrA. Bonus if they are ridiculous songs and you make them as literal as possible. Don't take any of this too seriously. Or seriously at all, good god.

I will kick this off.

Alurien: Americano - Lady Gaga. Don't even, it's perfect. HE WILL CRY FOR HE WILL DIE FOR HOW he cares shut up.

Miri Black: Can't Be Tamed - Miley Cyrus. I KNOW, it could have been like, every worgen girl song ever replacing florence and the machine, but nope.jpg. sry miri u get miley. or should i say, you're welcome.

Idle Hands: Bass Down Low - The Cataracs fet Dev. Don't ask, okay. The guy has a funky sweater on. Half of them are high. One of them has a nerf gun for no apparent reason. It's set in a den or a kitchen or something. I don't actually know what Idle Hands even does but I figure when they're having IC meetings, it looks a lot like this video.

Laughed so hard that I just choked. This is SO Wilhiem in an ugly sweater & Llew dressed like a Captain, hogging the camera.  Sid comes in singing for SURE.  

And off-camera, Moira is sitting with her lips pursed.

It's difficult to do this for Llew Wheaton, because lets face, it he has no shame.  However, he would be wiggling down the street, belting Bronksi Beat, Boy George (Culture Club) and Frankie Goes To Hollywood like a boss.  And then there's Rockstar by Nickelback.  It's kind of his anthem because he is a rockstar. 

Harlo Bloodleaf is totally a Nikki Minaj fan.  You a stupid hoe

Moira is probably filming this, because no one is going to do this properly, seriously.

in other news I laughed before I choked

this is p much correct

 

Wihliem Hammerstorm has already been drawn as Ke$ha, but this is pretty much him every morning. He'd listen to the stupidest shit and this would blast from his bike. He'd have speakers on a bike. And then Aleyna will stop by and they can write a bad romance.

I have this suspicion that Vlasta would be a big closet fan of that wonderfully bad Romanian band OZone (the ones that wrote the infamous Numa Numa song...) The shameless but sweetly naive sentimentality of the lyrics, the sort of happy-sad inflections of the tunes. (wait, uh, not that i have an entire album of theirs on my ipod or anything either...)

These four are totally Krestin's jams.  If they came up on his playlist he'd turn them up so loud other people would be able to hear it.  Of course, he'd be oblivious because he'd be bopping along with his eyes shut and his mouth moving with the words >_>

I'll have you all know, Dorien is here for your entertainment.

And then this is the song that he will start singing/dancing to when thoroughly smashed from too much alcohol.

If Dawsons was riding around on his new bike he would reave his engines loudly and knock everyone out of the way, while cranking this song. As well, if he was still the man he could be he would tell everyone to get low to this song. I'm serious... Dawsons lived in modern times with this music he would be the pinnacle of trash. Song on his Ipod if he had one? Hot in hereSexy and I know itBitches, and a lot of other techno and rap and pop... You can figure them out if you are understanding the theme to his trashy music.

Zom? He would be TOO up tight to admit that he listens to this...

Kizami... Yeeeeaaaah... Ehe...

To me, this would just be their trashy music and guilty pleasures.

Sidoni Wheaton is definitely a dirty dancer.  She is that ridiculously slutty girl in the club who is nonetheless so self-possessed that only the guys she wants to have touching her actually get away with it (however, she wants like... every guy, so, that doesn't mean much).  She is one of those white girls who drops it like it's hot to "Shoop" and knows all the words.  I've always found Kanye West's "Amazing" to remind me of her (I'm a monster, I'm a maven, I know this world is changin'. Never gave in, never gave up, I'm the only thing I'm afraid of. No matter what, you'll never take that from me) as well.

Oh my. Freiha is too hard to choose for because she's so SRSFACE all the time. I think, though, she would secretly find this song catchy. And for some reason I imagine she'd be a fan of Madonna. But shh, don't tell anyone. This one and this one would certainly be her favorites.

Shel is so much easier with her more outgoing personality. The more upbeat and catchy, the better. See: Exhibit A and Exhibit B. Her parents wouldn't agree with this music choice. What they'd REALLY hate, though, is that she (so-very-secretly) likes THAT DARN LOUD ROCK N' ROLL JUNK.

Disclaimer! -- I don't find any of these songs trashy because I like a lot of everything, but given the characters' preferences and backgrounds and such, they probably are some degree of such!

The scene: Pro staggering out of the bar into a taxi cab at Beer:Thirty yelling "JUST A SMALL TOWN GIRL, LIVIN IN A LOOONELY WOOO- OW FUCK WHY IS THIS DOOR SO LOW" Or possibly rocking out in his car. Probably.

Jax would secretly have this squirreld away on his ipod. And possibly dance around to it in his apartment. Once again cementing his place as world's shittiest DK. Hopefully he'd at least refrain from using his hairbrush as a microphone.

So guilty of assigning "dirty pop" and such to characters. I REGRET NOTHING.

M'naa and Meros
"Love the Way You Lie" by Eminem and Rihanna
"Kiss With a Fist" by Florence + the Machine

It's true love, clearly. The most gentle, caring, and romantic of all. ...What. They're forest. What did you expect me to do, pick out some nice Backstreet Boys?

Xaj
"Fever" by Adam Lambert
"S.E.X." by Nickelback

Just... take your pick for songs that are perverted in some way.

Tisho
"One Step at a Time" by Jordin Sparks
as Juakali
"Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics

Tisho the deader is young, so he gets something newer and light, hopeful to bop along to. But he's really like 33, so there's some 80s cheese for you.

Ti'kalan
"A View to a Kill" by Duran Duran

Tiki is also older. Incoming Duran Duran spam. YOU KIDS AND YOUR NEWFANGLED MUSIC.

Jabiru
"Going Under" by Evanescence

...emobird needs evanescence, okay.

Yggdrasila is...super srs but...She'd blast this little 'gem'. Especially if she had Kotekeke present. Because really, she's likes to think she's a badass and a lady-killer.

She isn't. XD

And upon being told so, she'd become terribly...terribly emo, and play this.

I can't help but think that Mah's secretly a Pink fan. She'd definitely go around half-singing, half-screaming U + Ur Hand, only to realize later what the lyrics were talking about. She would then curl up in a corner, whimpering. She'd also like Raise Your Glass.

Violetta's such a music fan that I don't think there's much that she DOESN'T like. But I -do- have a series of images of her dancing to the Cupid Shuffle. She'd also love LMFAO. Like Mah, she'd like a Pink song. Unlike Mah, it'd be the Shirley Bassey cover of Get The Party Started. She'd also be a HUGE FAN of Eurovision, and all that comes with it.

Lyria tends to go for creepy Japanese stuff. Vocaloid, anime, so on. She'd definitely have Koda Kumi's Selfish on repeat, though.

Oh god oh man, do I ever love trashy pop music. Legit. I am all over that shit and shameless about it. 

If Henrik wasn't such a complete fun sponge he would be a huge Gaga fan, and hide his i-pod, which would mostly consist of super hipster bands for his total indie cred. Beautiful, Dirty, RichMonster, and he would rock out to Just Dance because who doesn't?? And Beyonce would be his gurl...  this song

I don't know if its really trashy, but Nayan would totally listen to Bohemia, who is a Punjabi rap artist and totally bawss. And Crass because he's soooo punx.

Rhys would like crooners ala the rat pack, which I guess isn't all that trashy either, but he's the kind of guy who would go see lounge acts in a casino. La Vie En RoseSway, AND HE WOULD LOVE THIS MOTHERFUCKER because oh god, how lame is that?

Hef would listen to shitty white guy reggae like this douche and sublime. Everyone would be like, omg what smells like pot and turn that crap down!

If we're going for what trashy pop songs are on his ipod and not just songs that make him go fuck yeahhh, then this song and probably this song. And Cold War for sure. The Killers because I think he can relate to the breakin' my back just to know your name bit. Since that's pretty Him. Ummm. Some Shiny Toy Guns. Definitely this. Lolololo this song. And some Kid Cudi. And this and NO SHAME ABOUT IT. People would look at that and go "you're old" because it's old enough not to be OLD SCHOOL, just outdated. And this. Yep. But let's not forget this, because he would have it and know like all the words. But he would never let anyone know that. Ever.

I mean all of these aren't omg trashy but they'd look at the songs and then look at Alurien and be like "what."
