A trio of songs for consideration - Skyfire2020 - 09-13-2015

A few songs I came across online.  From the scooby doo cartoons there are 2 Hex Girl songs (one video with cartoon footage for both songs, and individual lyric videos)  that would appear to be mind changing songs


I'm an Hex Girl is either a Mind control song or a simulacrum of the singers (although I can't imagine the latter being very useful).
Earth, Wind, Fire and Air has a few lines that suggest elemental powers, but my first thought is another mind changing spell.  I would have the people who hear the song ignore/forget their current plans and instead focus on an environmental issue for a couple of issues.  It could be useful if an evil event just has to be completed at the precise time and you can distract everyone for a precious minute or so.
Finally Maybe Tommorrow (Theme from Littlest Hobo) by Terry Bush 
I see as a type of Meta Song allowing someone to follow Doug through the portal for a single step before returning to their own world.  I have also wondered if it could be a gate song with all the traveling references and I could imagine it making a decent Drunkard's Walk theme song or AMV.

I can see Maybe Tomorrow as Eimi's theme, not Doug's - she's traveling the worlds willingly.

That's a good point.  I had forgotten about Eimi to be honest.
On the subject of forgetting things, I knew it should have been a quartet of songs but I gave up on remembering the final entry.
I would use Shattered Glass by Laura Branigan to be a bad luck curse ("And everything you hold Just falls apart like shattered glass").

Don't worry - you aren't the only one.
