I'm not going to brag too much, but the one good thing about my job besides the paycheck is now I look surprisingly good without a shirt on. Like, I'm gonna look great for pool parties.

The title is a little hyperbolic, but the subject's pretty silly.
Basically, I like to put together playlists that are CD-sized for characters I've played in past gaming scenarios. It's really just a thing I do when I get tipsy and bored, because it's pretty much just me actively listening to music - often music I haven't listened to in a while, because I got into a rut. It kind of adds one more reason for me to search out new music - just in case a song happens to match a character perfectly. None of it is a primary concern - just something fun to do when I'm bored and too tired to really make myself do something productive.
It's a weakness.
Anyhow, weird stuff like this from other people occasionally makes me search out new music to listen to. I've talked a lot about Panahon in the past (though not lately, because why would I?) and I've got her rough track list, so here it is.
01. Venus Hum - I Feel Love
02. Metric - The Police and the Private
03. The Smashing Pumpkins - By Starlight
04. Interpol - Always Malaise
05. Blood Red Shoes - It's Getting Boring by the Sea
06. Metric - Stadium Love
07. Broken Social Scene - World Sick
08. Interpol - Pace is the Trick
09. Venus Hum - Surgery in the Sky
10. Metric - Combat Baby
11. VAST - I Know How To Love
12. Thievery Corp. - Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes
13. Smashing Pumpkins - Age of Innocence
14. Frank Sinatra - The Girl From Ipanema
14's an in-joke. Panahon, because of three dots in Savant and two dots in Sail I purchased as an explanation behind her becoming a fisherman in her youth (gendered pronouns are all correct, here) was the second-best pilot in the group, but not the leader. So, when we left the airship, she was left behind to make sure the craft wasn't bogarted by GM-fiat. (Because Pana would easily murder almost any would-be thief in Creation.) This happened so often, we started humming elevator music as half-hearted protest, since we joked that the craft had exactly one musical selection - a copy of the Girl From Ipanema stuck on repeat for eternity.
After that, who wouldn't want the Neverborn to succeed?
There's an awful lot of Metric and Venus Hum on this playlist. I think I have![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
baronsamedi to thank for introducing me to them via this very website.
Many of these songs have a reference either oblique or obvious to themes of fate, fleeting love, stars, fighting, or the color blue. It's a little too much for me to make an explicit list, but many of them have references to several of these. Those that don't tend to have an appropriate tone or fit Panah's history or themes in other ways. (Trouble youth, living in Yu Shan's decadent splendor, ect, et al.)
Age of Innocence is Panah's namesake. Panahon ng Kamumusan is a reference to the song title in Tagalog, albeit probably mangled.
This is incredibly lame, but it'll probably happen again.
