Songs for the Characters

I posted this in 'Songs for a CSI' already but this thread seems to be more popular so I thought I will post it here again... sry

My brother actually wrote a song about Sara. He's only 13 and I think Sara is his first crush. He's a big Eminem fan so just have the music of 'Mockingbird' in your head. He didn'n mind me putting it here... it goes something like this:

One night you, showed up at my door step
I saw you have been crying and I say your bloody head
You asked me to, never leave your side
'cuz you couldn't take them fight, day and night
I said everything's gonna be alright
It took a while to calm you down, to come around
to understand
why lately you have been so mad (sad)
The memories wouldn't fade
it made you misbehave
you felt betrayed, by the actions of your mother,
who stabbed your father,
and by that showed, she didn't love you either
That's why you're trying to recall every detail, every stare,
you shouldn't care
but everytime I say that, you remember the stain,
of iron in the air.

Now, hush little baby, don't you cry
everything's gonna be alright...



Ain't that cute? ... Another song that fits to Sara is 'Virgin State of Mind' by K's Choise:

There's a chair in my head on which I used to sit
Took a pencil and I wrote the following on it

Now there's a key where my wonderful mouth used to be
Dig it up, throw it at me
Dig it up, throw it at me

Where can I run to, where can I hide
Who will I turn to now I'm in a virgin state of mind

Got a knife to disengage the voids that I can't bear
To cut out words I've got written on my chair

Like do you think I'm sexy
Do you think I really care

Can I burn the mazes I grow
Can I, I don't think so


PEACE
 
Yeah, he's great! I love him so damn much. He's only 13 (like I already said) but he's so creative. He did some good scoring for me these days. He will make it far some day and I am already very proud of him. I tell him you liked it. He will be happy to hear it. Thanx...

PEACE
 
I think I've already put down what song would go with sara but because my memory is bad I'll just put it quickly. Cellophane by amanda Ghost. read the lyrics and you might/might not notice it.

'Its about how she feels. Like she's wrapped in a clear substance, people can see how she carries herself but they cant see how she feels inside.



Nobody moves me

Ive been through this life

With no place that I can call my own

Thinking above me

I never seem to find anybody that can feel like home

And I try and I try and I try



Chorus

Funny how it feels

When theres nothing to say

Trapped with my ideals

I cant contain

Im wrapped in cellophane

Im wrapped in cellophane

Im wrapped in cellophane

And it knows my know name



Nobody told me

Obsessive needs were always following me around

And you cant ignore me

Look at my face and then tell me my place in town

And hes in and shes in and hes in and shes in



Repeat chorus



And I try and I try

And hes in and shes in and hes in and shes in



Repeat chorus'

this is an awesome thread. im loving iris by the goo goo dolls and maybe someday by nickleback for GSR.
 
I gotta agree with Iris for Grissom/Sara and Virgin State Of Mind for Sara (two of my favorite songs BTW). For some reason The Leaving Song (not Part Two) from AFI makes me think of Sara as well. Pink's 18 Wheeler brings Catherine to mind. I'll have more later.
 
I think a good song for Nicky would be 'Fix You' from the new Coldplay album.
 
Ok, some that I can think of are:

Grissom: 'Boulevard of Broken Dreams' by Green Day since he is kind of lonely.

GSR: Either 'Let Me Go' by 3 Doors Down or 'Lonely No More' by Rob Thomas because they either need to forget about it or decide to get together already!

Nick: 'I Play Chicken With teh Train' by Cowboy Troy since he like country, and since he has almost died so many times.

Catherine: 'A** Like That' by Eminem since she used to be a stripper and guys prolly thought that about her.

Sara: 'Just Lose It' by Eminem since she has little temper flares and "loses" it some time because of some cases.

Greg: 'Fireproof' by Pillar since he lived through the lab explosion.

Warrick: 'Candy Shop' by 50 Cent just because I could totally see him singing that. *drools at the thought of Warrick being 50 Cent in the Candy Shop video
 
I was just listening to Dido 'No Angel' and this song struck me as being pretty good for Sara - especially after her revelation in ND - I'm still pondering the songs for the rest of the characters...

Honestly Ok by Dido

I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again
I just want to feel deep in my own world
but I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore
On a different day if I was safe in my own skin
then I wouldn't feel so lost and so frightened
But this is today and I'm lost in my own skin

And I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore

I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again
 
okay... still on the 'No Angel' album by Dido - just finished listening to 'My Life' and I can imagine it as a Grissom/Sara angst-ridden duet. Check it out...

My Life by Dido

Grissom:
What I choose to do is of no concern to you and your friends
Where I lay my hat may not be my home,
but I will last on my own
'Cause it's me, and my life
it's my life

Sara:
Oh the world has sat in the palm of your hand
not that you'd see
and I'm tired and bored of waiting for you
and all those things you never do

'Cause it's me, and my life
it's my life
 
i think this might make a good sara song. i guess it relates to her family background and also the frustration she is feeling towards grissom and his inability to commit.

Papa Roach - scars

I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And my scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

Drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channel all your pain
And I can't help you fix yourself
You're making me insane
All I can say is

[Chorus:]
I tear my heart open, I sew myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
And our scars remind us that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

I tried to help you once
Against my own advice
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That you're drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last stand

[Chorus]

I'm drunk and I'm feeling down
And I just wanna be alone
You shouldn't ever came around
Why don't you just go home?
Cause you're drowning in the water
And I tried to grab your hand
And I left my heart open
But you didn't understand
But you didn't understand
Go fix yourself

I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
I can't help you fix yourself
But at least I can say I tried
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life
 
I think this would be a good song for the whole Grissom and Sara relationship. It's parts of the song 'Give It Up' by FeFe Dobson.

He wants her
She wants him too
Broken message coming through
Same story for different fools
She sees him
He stares right through
Nasty rumors
So un-true
There's nothing that she can do
And you want her
And you need her
And you beg her
But you deceive her
 
Hey nicksbabygurl! I see you took my advice. I wrote that you should try this post with your song ideas!

P.S.- I know that song too. I thought of Grissom and Sara too.
 
Ohh I have a lot of songs in my head for the charatars :) For the moment these:

Sara: Celine Dion & Barbara Streisand with Tell Him
Grissom (and Sara depending how you look at the text): Ilse de Lange with When we don't talk
And also I don't know why but when I hear Michael Andrews with Mad World, I always think of Grissom.
 
Hmmm... for Sara regarding her feelings for Grissom (up until Butterflied) would be 'On my Own' from the Les Miserables musical.

On my Own
by Eponine

And now I'm all alone again
Nowhere to turn, no one to go to
Without a home without a friend
Without a face to say hello to
And now the night is near
I can make believe he's here

Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head

On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me

In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness,
The trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me
Forever and forever

And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us

I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him
The world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers

I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me
His world would go on turning
A world that's full of happiness
That I have never known

I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own.
