I mostly just listen to my internet radio or MuchMusic (the Canadian version of MTV - it actually plays music), but a couple of my going projects have theme music.

A short story temporarily and lazily called 'Rainbows' after the prompt is to Airplanes by B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams.

A longer collaborative piece is to this

1. Bleed it Out by Linkin Park
2. What Would Happen by Meredith Brooks
3. You're Going Down by Sick Puppies
4. Control by Poe
5. Electric Feel by MGMT
6. You're Gonna Go Far, Kid by The Offspring
7. Misfits by Third Eye Blind
8. Black & White by Sarah McLachlan
9. Closer by Nine Inch Nails
10. Feel it In My Bones (Tiesto remix) by Tegan and Sara

That's cool. And a music channel that plays music? WOW. America has Fuse for that, but even they have their off moments. Is MuchMusic 100% music all the time?

It's not 100% of the time - about the same as mid-90s MTV. There're a couple reality shows, and Behind The Music, and themed shows like the Rock Hour. But yeah, mostly music. It's a miracle.

I've never been one to make a playlist for an individual piece I'm working on (unless it's fanfiction, in which case I'll listen to the music made by the band I'm writing about), however I do have a playlist that kick starts my morning when I go to start writing. They're songs that either inspire me or ones that get me singing along.


1) This is War ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
2) 100 Suns ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
3) Vorspiel ~ William Control (I play this five times)
4) Alejandro ~ Lady Gaga
5) Monster ~ Lady Gaga
6) Bad Romance ~ Lady Gaga
7) Attention ~ Girl on Fire
8 ) Escape ~30 Seconds to Mars
9) Night of the Hunter ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
10) Kings and Queens ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
11) This is War ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
12) 100 Suns ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
13) Hurricane ~ 30 Seconds to Mars ft. Kanye West
14) Closer to the Edge ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
15) Vox Populi ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
16) Search and Destroy ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
17) Alibi ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
18 ) Stranger in a Strange Land ~ 30 Seconds to Mars
19) L490 ~ 30 Seconds to Mars

8 - 19 are the ones that loop. rolleyes

I haven't thought about mine, but I listen to melodic metal, so basically, Symphony X, Blind Guardian, a handful of other guys. I'll start assembling one if I can.

Effy: Big 30STM fan, I see. Schweet. I like 'em, too.

Punk: I love doing these. And Blind Guardian's the s**t. =D

{This is what Esmeralda has to say.}

I don't have a specific playlist, but I especially like Green Day, Thirty Seconds To Mars, Snow Patrol, U2, Say Anything, OneRepublic and Death Cab For Cutie when I write. ^.^
