Sailor Moon Step Soundtrack, Version 1.0
02-08-2012, 09:55 PM
Just what it says on the tin. This is the "core" set of music that kind of defines this Step for me; there are actually at least a dozen more songs that I could include, but really, this should be sufficient. A few of the entries are power songs, the rest are the actual "sound track". Not included: gate songs.
- Pandora's Box, "The Invocation"
- Alabama 3, "Woke Up This Morning (Theme to 'The Sopranos')"
- Manowar, "Call To Arms" *
- Barenaked Ladies, "It's All Been Done"
*
- Donny Osmond ("Mulan" OST), "I'll Make A Man Out Of You"
*[/url]
- [url=mulan%20i%27ll%20make%20a%20man%20out%20of%20you%20lyrics]Huey Lewis and the News, "The Power of Love"
- Debbie Gibson, "Electric Youth"
*
- Vanilla Ninja, "Tough Enough"
- Guns 'n' Roses, "Sweet Child o' Mine"
- Irish Rovers, "Lily The Pink"
*
- Genesis, "Land of Confusion"
- Nickelback "When We Stand Together"
- Heather Alexander, "March of Cambreadth"
*[/url]
- [url=Heather%20Alexander,%20%22March%20of%20Cambreadth%22]Starlight Express (Original Cast Album), "Starlight Express"
*
- E Nomine, "Der Ring Der Nibelungen"
- Pointer Sisters, "Neutron Dance"
*
- Manowar, "Kingdom Come"
*
- Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer, "When I Go"
- Emerson Lake and Palmer, "Jerusalem"
- Prince, "7"
- Fame OST, "I Sing The Body Electric"
- Donny Osmond, "Soldier of Love"
* = Power song for Doug
ETA: I'm looking for a good Starlight Express link. The one I've got here isn't the version I have in MP3, which comes from one of the original cast albums (I can't remember if it was London or New York). Apparently the title song of the show has undergone a lot of rewrites over the years, and I can't find anything on YouTube that sounds remotely like the version I know. (And which Doug uses.) This is the closest I've found during an evening of searching.
ETA2, months later: I can't believe I forgot to include "Sweet Child o' Mine".
ETA3, more months later: Adding a song I recently discovered and just realized was perfect for the Step, Nickelback's "When We Stand Together".
ETA4: Three and a half years after original post: I found a better version of "Starlight Express". It's still not the version I have in MP3, but at least it has the same lyrics and structure except for the last two lines. It's just... well, it's sung by an Italian tenor, which makes it sound a little ... odd to my ear.ETA4.5: And when I posted that, I saw that the Nickelback link was broken. So I fixed it.

Hmm. Having a bit of fun with this, playing guessing games in my head where they'd fit in the 'movie'. Soldier of Love seems like a good fit for end credits, but it could also be a combat track. Manowar could work for both sides in certain situations.
Only one that I see as locked is 7, for the final battle. "Jerusalem" and "When I Go" feel like the moon kingdom flashback, but that's really conjecture on my part.

I suppose I should have noted that the songs are in "plot order". And, hm, I just realized that the entire second half of the list pretty much is the last chapter and a half.
A couple things: "Woke Up This Morning" is sort of the theme music for the entire Step; "Land of Confusion" is sort of a secondary theme. "Soldier of Love" is indeed "end credits", but so is "I Sing The Body Electric". Hey, it's written, I can have two end themes if I want.
"Starlight Express" has already been seen in a posted snippet.
You're in the right ballpark with "Jerusalem", except the direction of the flash.
"When I Go". Mm. There're hints about that in a snippet over in the DW13 forum, which also hints at the use of another song in the list. "When I Go", though, serves a kind of double duty, for two different uses of "go".
Would it help if I flagged which ones were power songs?

So, you've dropped the idea of using "It's Raining Men" somewhere in the last chapter?

As to there rest, "I'll make a Man" and "Tough Enough" do evoke training montages. *wink*

Wong snippet -- not in the first chapter, in the DW13 forum (although oddly you're in the right ballpark even so).
And... at least half-right.
ETA: Oh, and Helen and I are assembling a soundtrack for DW13. It won't be ready for a while, as she won't be crashing with us next week and she has a couple Godsmack songs she wants to play for me (as candidates for the Step theme).

Ok, coming in that particular sequence, I really now do have to look up "Stalin's Organ"... too bad I'm at work and can't access youtube.
Katyushas ho!

Hmmm.... I guess that you edited to mark what ones are power songs.
And March of Camberdeath is one of them hmm? Now why do I suddenly have this image of the song causing his magegift to manafest like a sword or axe and shield... Field Argent, Horse Sable Horse Gules, Rearing. And the burning urge to find out how many of them can he make die, unable to break off combat without terminating the song (requries a major will check if song has not ended)

Nothing quite so... immediately martial. But I think you'll approve of the use to which I put it.

Just in case anyone wonders why this popped to the top of the board again -- I just added a song to the Supplemental list.

And it's been bumped because I found a version of "Starlight Express" that is closer to the version I know, and I fixed a broken link.

Glancing over this thread, I saw the line: Quote:You're in the right ballpark with "Jerusalem", except the direction of the flash.
Does it make me a BAD person that the image that promptly came to my mind at those words was a certain troublesome city in the Middle East vaporizing beneath a mushroom cloud -- and I smiled?

speaking of broken links, the first song (The Invocation) has been taken down/not available
actually, same with 'Call to Arms', 'It's All Been Done', 'Land of Confusion', 'March of Cambreadth', 'Der Ring Der Nibelungen, 'Neutron Dance', 'Kingdom Come, and '7'
here's a link for March of Cambreadth that I had on file

Honestly, Bob, I'm kinda surprised this one isn't on the playlist, given the story's title.

Actually, I've never heard that Manowar song. It was a different Manowar song that provided the title -- Call To Arms:
Fight for the Kingdom
Bound for glory
Armed with a Heart of Steel

Song of the Episode (Episode 9): Speed
11-03-2015, 02:11 AM
I just slapped this video together because I couldn't find any recording of this particular song online: Speed, by Artisan (from the album " Rocking At The End of Time").
Quote:Cased in steel and strapped in heat,
Hurtling down an endless street,
Heading for where the white lines meet…
Torque from the engine screams from the wheel
Rubber on tarmac steel biting steel
Straddle your charger saddle your steed
When chasing the future speed's what you need
CHORUS:
And there's no time, time to think
No time to wonder
No time to stop and stare
Keep moving or you will go under
Don't think of why and don't think of how
And don't think of where think only of now
As greedy for speed you race down the track
With eyes straight ahead there's no looking back
Fast acting fast food high speed fast living
Time waits for no man time's unforgiving
Faster and faster 'round the wheel spins
A race that is racing, tell me who wins
Time can't be wasted, speed is the key
Look back on the journey what did you see
For time is the villain time is no friend
From pit stop to pit stop – the race never ends.
Episode 9 was the one with the clock-youma.
