Songs for the Characters

yes! bright eyes! you rock!
:p
i don't know that song though. :(
but, pretty much anything conor oberst does is just...
righteous. um, yeah.
*squirms in chair becuase i don't know that song*

oh-this song i just thought of, it has to do with sara, not really about her, but someone needs to sing it to her.
"I think that dress looks nice on you" (or title might be "that dress looks nice on you" by Sufjan Stevens. It is a perfect fit--the song, not the dress, i don't know her size! :lol:
But it is a pretty good song for her i think. i think a lot of music i listen to could apply to her actually, mostly becuase i have sad heartbreaky (but not country) kind of musics running around my various cd players (becuase i'm too damn cheap to get an MP3 player...and i am computer illiterate and can't figure that crap out)...um, this is getting long and slightly off topic.
recap: the freakin dress song by sufjan stevens for sara!
 
Oh my gosh, this is going to be long. I couldn't sleep last night becuase i have this huge headache, so i just sat around listening to music, trying to sleep, and i couldn't. :(
But, i came up with a pretty good list.

Nick or Greg: I thought I was your Boyfriend-Magnetic Fields
Greg: Daft Punk is Playing at My House-LCD Soundsystem
Greg: Daddy DJ-Daddy DJ
Warrick: Girl Trouble-Violent Femmes, or More Money Tonight, also by the Violent Femmes.
Grissom: I don't really Love you anymore-Magnetic Fields
and a whole big list for Sara!
Trees Keep Growing-Azure Ray. We Exchanged Words-Azure Ray.
So have I for You-Nikka Costa.
and for all of them: Am I Awake? by They Might be Giants, becuase these people never sleep do they?! :lol:
 
On the way home from work yesterday, I heard 'Iris' on the radio and I think that it fits Grissom perfectly (but, I still like 'Cold' by Crossfade for him, too). But after 'Iris', I heard 'We've Got Tonight' by Bob Seger, I think that would be good for GSR, or even 'What About Love' by Til' Tuesday.
 
I think that the two best songs for Grissom are Iris and Cold.
If GSR doesn't work out *running around screaming "NO! NO!"* a good song would be "I Can't Make You Love Me" by Bonnie Raitt. Its a sad song, but I think it describes how Sara felt during Season 4. :(
 
I*ve just heard "Scientist" by Coldplay and I thought maybe it could describe Grissom a bit :)
Phrase from the song- "Questions of science, science and progress Do not speak as loud as my heart" It says something about him, doesn*t it?? :rolleyes:
 
Some more. :D I can think of so many for some of the characters.

Grissom: Bugs - Pearl Jam
All these...
i got bugs
i got bugs in my room
bugs in my bed
bugs in my ears
their eggs in my head
bugs in my pockets
bugs in my shoes
bugs in the way i feel about you
bugs on my window
trying to get in
they don't go nowhere
waiting, waiting...
bugs on my ceiling
crowded the floor
standing, sitting, kneeling...
a few block the door
and now the question's:
do i kill them?
become their friend?
do i eat them?
raw or well done?
do i trick them?
i don't think they're that dumb
do i join them?
looks like that's the one
i got bugs on my skin
tickle my nausea
i let it happen again
they're always takin' over
i see they surround me, i see...
see them deciding my fate
oh, that which was once...was once up to me...
now it's too late
i got bugs in my room...one on one
that's when i had a chance
i'll just stop now
i'll become naked
and with the...i'll become one

Grissom/Sara (more for Grissom's side of the relationship): Me In Honey - R.E.M.
I sat there looking ugly
Looking ugly and mean
I knew what you were saying
You were saying to me

Baby's got some new rules
Baby said she's had it with me
It seems a shame you waste your time on me
It seems a lot to waste your time for me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

There's a lot of honey in this world
Baby this honey's from me
You've got to do what you do
Do it with me
It seems a shame you waste your time for me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

Knocked silly
Knock flat
Sideways down
These things they pick you up
and they Turn you around
Say your piece
Say you're sweet for me
It's all the same to share the pain with me
It's all the same. Save the shame for me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me

Baby's got some new rules
Baby says she's had it with me
There's a fly in the honey
And baby's got a baby with me
That's a part
That's a part of me

Left me to love
What it's doing to me
Left me to love
What it's doing to me
What about me?

Grissom/Sara (more from her perspective): Got To Get You Into My Life - The Beatles
I was alone I took a ride I didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I could see another kind of mind there
ooh, Then I suddenly see you, ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day of my life, got to get you into my life

You didn't run you didn't lie you knew I wanted just to hold you
And had you gone you knew in time we'd meet again for I had told you so, You were meant to be near me, oogh, And I want you to hear me Say we'll be together everyday, what are you doing to my life

What can I do what can I be when I'm with you I want to stay there If I'm true I'll never leave and if I do I know the way there ooh, Then I suddenly see you, ooh, did I tell you I need you every single day of my life, got to get you into my life
I got to get you into my life...

Greg: Day Dream - The Lovin' Spoonful
What a day for a day dream,
What a day for a day dreamin' boy.
And I'm lost in a day dream,
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy.
And even if time ain't really on my side,
It's one of those days for taking a walk outside.
I'm blowing the day to take a walk in the sun,
And fall on my face in somebody's new mowed lawn.

I've been havin' a sweet dream,
I've been dreamin' since I woke up today,
It's starring me in my sweet dream,
'Cause she's the one that makes me feel this way,
And even if time is passin' me by a lot,
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got.
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for dropping my load.
A pie in the face for being a sleepy bull toad.

And you can be sure that if you're feelin right
A day dream will last a long time into the night.
Tomorrow at breakfast you may prick up your ears,
Or you may be dreamin' for a thousand years.

Nick: Steady Rollin' Man - Eric Clapton
I am a steady rollin' man and I roll both night and day.
I am a steady rollin' man and I roll both night and day.
But I ain't got no sweet woman, woo-hoo Lord, to be rollin' this way.

I am the man that rolls when icicles are hanging on the tree.
I am the man that rolls when icicles are hanging on the tree.
Why can't you hear me begging mama, woo-hoo Lord, down on my bended knee?

I am a steady rollin' man and I roll both night and day.
I am a steady rollin' man and I roll both night and day.
But I ain't got no sweet woman, woo-hoo Lord, to be rollin' this way.

Warrick: Feeling Good - Nina Simone
Birds flyin' high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel
Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me
yeah, its a new dawn its a new day its a new life for me
Ooooh, and I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River runnin' free you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree you know how I feel
Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me
And I'm feelin good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what i mean dont you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleepin' peace when day is done that's what I mean
And this old world is a new world and a bold world for me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the crime you know how I feel
Your freedom is mine, and I know how I feel
Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me
(Free styling)
Oh, I'm feeling good

Sara: Child Of The Wild Blue Yonder - John Hiatt
She has the wind as a witness
She has feelings that fly by night
She believes in forgiveness
But it's not love if it holds too tight

And you can fly beside her
But you gotta go where your heart says go
She lets the bright lights guide her
Through the rain and the drivin' snow
Where she comes from she don't know

Chorus:
She's a child of the wild blue yonder
Flying out of here
She's a child of the wild blue yonder
Born in an angel's wing

If you see her falling
That's just a little trick she does

She makes a dive for the pain that's calling
Then heads for the clouds like a little dove

She can't help her laughing
She can't stop your crying days
Sometimes it hurts to be having
To hold on a love that surely must fly away

Chorus

Medicine woman raised her
Spirit father praised her
Through their love she was set free
From a baby kicking and screaming
To a full blood woman dreaming
With the power just to be

Chorus twice

Catherine: Get Off My Cloud - The Rolling Stones
I live in an apartment on the ninety-ninth floor of my block
And I sit at home looking out the window
Imagining the world has stopped
Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up like a Union Jack
And says, I've won five pounds if I have his kind of detergent pack

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud, baby

The telephone is ringing
I say, "Hi, it's me. Who is it there on the line?"
A voice says, "Hi, hello, how are you
Well, I guess I'm doin' fine"
He says, "It's three a.m., there's too much noise
Don't you people ever wanna go to bed?
Just 'cause you feel so good, do you have
To drive me out of my head?"

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud baby

I was sick and tired, fed up with this
And decided to take a drive downtown
It was so very quiet and peaceful
There was nobody, not a soul around
I laid myself out, I was so tired and I started to dream
In the morning the parking tickets were just like
A flag stuck on my window screen

I said, Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd
On my cloud

Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Hey! You! Get off of my cloud
Don't hang around, baby, two's a crowd


A good song for an episode of CSI: Leaving Las Vegas - Sheryl Crow

Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street
Not that I care at all
I spent the best part of my losing streak
In an Army Jeep
For what I can't recall
Oh I'm banging on my TV set
And I check the odds
And I place my bet
I pour a drink
And I pull the blind
And I wonder what I'll find
[Chorus]
I'm Leaving Las Vegas
Lights so bright
Palm sweat blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good

Used to be I could drive up to
Barstow for the night
Find some crossroad trucker
To demonstrate his might
But these days it seems
Nowhere is far enough away
So I'm leaving Las Vegas today

Chorus

I'm standing in the middle of the desert
Waiting for my ship to come in
But now no joker, no jack, no king
Can take this loser hand
And make it win

Chorus

I quit my job as a dancer
At the Lido des Girls
Dealing blackjack until one or two
Such a muddly line between
The things you want
And the things you have to do

Chorus

I'm leaving Las Vegas
And I won't be back
No I won't be back
Not this time
 
lol :lol:
Song about bugs is really cool :cool:
It describes Grissom perfectly :lol:
 
Glad you like it. :D It's actually the first song I thought of when thinking of Grissom besides The Seeker by The Who.

Here's another song for Grissom and me, erm, I mean Sara. :p :lol: :lol:

Wild Horses - The Rolling Stones

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day
 
you are just amazing. you typed up (i'm assuming, tho you probably just pasted them in? that's what i'd do anyway) the lyrics to those songs! if i had the time to do that, i would, cuase i keep thinking of songs for these people. in fact, all day at work...didn't get a lot of work done.

i like the one you picked for greg--what a day for a daydream. (ADIDAS--all day i dream about szmanda. HA!)

*skips out of the room*
 
I did cut and paste most of those lyrics, but not all. I thought it would be cool to see the lyrics in case some didn't know the songs.

I thought Greg needed something a little more upbeat and The Lovin' Spoonful just popped into my head with that song. :)

ADIDAS... :D :lol:

ADIDAS... :D :lol:

If I post any more songs in here, I should probably just go ahead the do the same, since I don't really listen to much "popular" music and I don't know how many other indie-freaks there are out there on the CSI board. *sighs with the thought of all that typing--like i don't do enough of that at work*

Here's another one for my darling Greggy-weggy. Katrina and the Waves's Walking on Sunshine becuase he is my sweet, sunshiny boy. :D
 
Hello there, I know I'm very new here, but this forum caught my eye quickly... Here's a few songs (with a few lyrics attatched) I thought up while listening to some random stuff today...not everyone is there. Maybe I'll add some later.

Catherine: "Nowhere Fast" - Incubus
"Will I ever get to, to where it is that I am going?
Will I ever follow through with what I... with what I have planned?
I guess it's possible, that I have been a bit distracted
And the directions for me are a lot less in demand."

Greg: "Tougher Than It Is" - Cake
"Well there is no such thing as you.
It doesn't matter what you do.
The more you try to qualify,
The more it all will pass you by.
Some people like to make life a little tougher than it is."

Grissom: "The Panic" - Strata
"Hold me until my head is clear again.
Cross off the names of all who died here.
And I'll become the sacred faith you lost.
I'm thinking...
Every second changes everything in my life.
Every second changes...everyday, the panic will see me through."

I hope to get to know this place better! ::smiles::
 
I got a goo dsong that represents totally our beloved Sara!
Wild horses by The sundays....okay..it's taken form the episode crash and burn but anyway...this is probably the best song that represents her!
 
yes, that's a good one. i love the sundays by the way.

*skips out of room, singing "wild horses, couldn't take me away...*

um...you all should probably plug your ears now.
