I would've thought that Doug's UN would have banned the use of Bryan Adams songs in combat without specific authorization from the Security Council.
Quote:Actually, I already have a song much like that -- I planned on using "Radar Love" by Golden Earring for a similar effect (only with flight instead of running) as part of the climax of DW1...
(actually "Run to You" could be useful in being able to find a female subject; Doug would just start going in the appropriate direction on foot even if he didn't consciously know where she was)
Quote:Or maybe Gold of the Metal Men?
"Gold" by Spandau Ballet, turns a third-party subject into a solid gold (mass is going to be an issue, animation may be as well) but indistructable form.
Quote:I dunno. The lyrics make it sound like the singer is doing anything but -- they're travelling, they're making good time, but they're just wishing for another option which they can't take. I'd have to think about it.
"Crash and Burn" by the Bangles. Does what it says: "I wish I could/Crash and burn."
Quote:Ah. Doug goes full-out Darkwing Daffy Duck.
"Self Control" by Laura Branigan. In that Doug would basically be losing it.
As for the matter of "Under My Thumb", Offsides has it right. One of Doug's problems is that he doesn't always make the best choices, particularly when he's riled up. Usually that means he just does something outright insane (hence the comment from the simulacrum Shadowwalker in chapter 2: "Hexe says rational and you don't always go together").
It's also a case of him thinking, at least subconsciously, "I've done what I want, now go away, I don't want to play anymore." Unfortunately, the Sabers wanted to keep playing...
