Describing his music: "It's about sex, blood, and rock and roll." Songs do contain explicit lyrics XD Redeemer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3_V7TrPMx4 Foresaken: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRqfION1EyE&feature=PlayList&p=6BF11F23D8F55A04&index=0 Not Meant For Me (short, concert version): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q_I...3D8F55A04&index=3&playnext=3&playnext_from=PL Not Meant For Me (full [though it's just a slideshow]): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fgy9x27rAFg&feature=PlayList&p=6BF11F23D8F55A04&index=4 Slept So Long (concert version): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHkY...3D8F55A04&index=2&playnext=2&playnext_from=PL System: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D01i...3D8F55A04&index=1&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL
I've read the book like, three times, but I've never watched the movie. I likee the music. I should add this movie to my "movies I need to watch" list.
Actually, I just finished watching the movie, and it combined the second and third book in most horrid way. If you love the books, don't watch the movie unless you just want to see the sexiness =^^=
OH DEAR LORD NO!! DON'T DO IT! D': For love of the vampires and Lestat himself, don't! >_< If you absolutely LOVED the books, then once you do see the movie, you will forever regret watching it...and you'll NOT be able to stop bitching about how horrible that movie was. The movie was PHAIL. I mean it can be a good movie if it was a story all by itself, but the fact that it's based on The Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damned totally killed everything...the bloodline are all messed up and the characters are not even in the correct personality. Trust me, you don't want to see this. Now I can't stop you from watching the movie, but heed my words...except for the fact that the character are pretty looking, there's nothing else to consider. :sleep: As for the music...it was great. <33 Redeemer: Marilyn Manson did an awesome job with it, and the way they used the song for the video was expectional. Foresaken: The verly lovely voice of Jonathan Davis...ah my favorite song from the movie! :'D Not Meant For Me: Static X is awesome, gooooood song. The song Cold was also good. Slept So Long: Zomfg! I love Orgy! I absolutely adore this song, and the official music video is like...whoa. O.o System: Jonathan Davis again. I swear, he's REALLY got a sexy voice...but Forsaken still beats this song, IMO. :p
All of a sudden I browse into a Music section, and see the title of this thread, and I had to pause for a moment to see if I was actually seeing correctly, and if it was exactly what I was thinking xD. I never predicted anyone will take notice of the pwnsome songs that was in the movie (however untrue and horrible it was to the books. Good thing I watched it before ever knowing they existed >.>). Trust me, this is saying a lot considering is not really my type of genre AT ALL, so for me to listen to it makes me think that this was the greatest grace for QotD. I'd say I loved that, AND Lestat's sexy self 8D. If only the actor had much more to work with than he was given (and dyed his hair blond)...but damn, he was such a eyecandy. Either way, back to the music: ♥ Forsaken: The best song in the film for me. LOVE. I couldn't stop listening to it for ages, and I still love to hear it today, to the point of repeats. I WILL make a video with this song one day. ONE DAY. When I get the program I want. Slept So Long: Second favorite, and really close to my first choice of Forsaken. Had to juggle between the two. I can't even explain how I love the beat and melody of this. I do prefer the Jonathan Davis's version, but I don't mind Orgy's either. System: Defnitely goes into my third. Really, my first three picks are what I would say I constantly hear, and this is no exception. And once more, I do prefer Jonathan Davis's version. Honestly, I like all of his versions xP, we'll just leave it at that. Not Meant For Me: Great song. I was always wondering what was its name, and when I found out, it was awesome once I played it in full. It didn't leave such a impact as the ones above, but it rose. Thus, it made it into my fourth, which is very close to the rest. Redeemer: A good song, but in my last compared to the others. Doesn't mean that it does not stand on its own for me. The music in this one is not for my tastes, yet again, it was something that I didn't dislike or hate. I think is impossible by this point. Overall, nice, nice, soundtrack :D. Can I also say something for the Soundtrack Score? (The classical music. Another damn nice CD for this movie) For example, the scene where the gypsy girl was playing the violin and this amazing melody popped up. I LOOOOVE IT. Clicketh, if you're curious: On The Beach
Best part of the songs is how he exposes the secrets of vampires in a way that makes the human think he is just a guy with a gimk. Just like Lestat to be a evil genius. But the best song is "Slept So Long". The lyrics pack a mean punch, and I love it.
