This thread is meant to be a little tongue in cheek.. What sort of songs do you associate with various Blake's 7 episodes? It can either relate to the plot or just something that comes to mind. Not to be taken seriously etc.. If you think you can improve on some of my suggestions do go ahead  For a start; DUEL - Two Tribes - Frankie goes to Hollywood PROJECT AVALON - Avalon - Roxy Music VOICE FROM THE PAST - I'm going slightly mad - Queen SARCOPHAGUS - Can't Get you out of my head - Kylie Minogue DEATHWATCH - Another one bites the dust - Queen STARDRIVE - Bat out of Hell - Meat Loaf HEADHUNTER - Don't lose your head - Queen GOLD - Gold Spandau Ballet SAND - I'll do anything for love, but I wont do that - Meat Loaf Behold your God, Neil!!  |

Warning, the video for Front 242's "Headhunter" is slightly NSFW if anyone looks it up to listen to it (very brief nudity) Everything else that had a video I think is safe. Edited by Magic Toenail on 07-02-2010 14:46 |

For the episode "Blake" - "Obsession" by, I think, Animotion. It's an old 80's song, and if I remember it correctly, some of the words are going to be, um, inappropriate. But the tone of the song fits for me, with Avon's feelings about Blake.
Edited by manicmama on 17-02-2010 12:29 Think of it as evolution in action. |

Here are my thoughts on some songs for the character relationships in the series Blake / Avon - "It's a Sin" by the Pet Shop Boys Avon / Vila - "All I Need Is A Miracle" by Mike and the Mechanics Avon / Cally - "In Too Deep" by Genesis Avon / Servalan - "Invisible Touch" by Genesis Vila / Gan - "You're My Best Friend" by Queen |

For the Gambit episode, Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money) - Pet Shop Boys. And maybe as a theme for the characters, either Voodoo Chile - Jimi Hendrix, or Long Cool Woman - The Hollies for Servalan. Think of it as evolution in action. |

Love Lets Make Lots of Money for Gambit. I can actually picture it and hear the song at the same time.
I used to have a life.......then I found Horizon! |
