Just made myself laugh with this thought.

Back in the old days the entertainment shows and talk shows used to have a house band.

Well the house band for LTG has surely got to be:

Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly.

They are a British band so they may not have made it over in the US (they may never) but the name is truly fitting.

Nice!

For Freddy Krueger i think Metallica with 'Enter Sandman' would work well.

'Hush little baby, dont say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
Its just the beast under your bed,
In your closet, in your head'

Great lines.

And for the Question, perhaps Blue Oyster Cult's "Hammer Back" fits his paranoid vigilante persona well:
"Maybe at a 7-11
Maybe at quick car jack
You'll verify there ain't a heaven
If you don't keep the hammer back!

Keep the hammer back, hammer back! Don't keep the safety on..."

I prefer to emphasize my inquisitive side over my 'paranoid' side. It's more important, and besides, the paranoia is merely a consequence of the former.

I think "The Seeker" by the Who would be most appropriate.

"I've looked under chairs
I've looked under tables
I've tried to find the key
To fifty million fables
They call me the Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Til the day I die"

And of course there's this bit:
"People tend to hate me 'cuz I never smile..."

I’ve been thinking on it some and I came up with some songs for some of the other characters here.

Captain America: Real American

This was Hulk Hogan’s old tune and I think it speaks for the man.

When it comes crashing down and it hurts inside
you gotta take a stand it don't help to hide
if you hurt my friends then you hurt my pride
i gotta be a man i cant let it slide

I am a real American
fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
fight for what's right
fight for your life

I feel strong about right and wrong
and i don't take trouble for very long
Ive got something deep inside of me
courage is the thing that keeps us free

I am a real American
fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
fight for what's right
fight for your life

If you hurt my friends then you hurt my pride
I gotta be a man i cant let it slide

I am a real American
fight for the rights of every man
I am a real American
fight for what's right
fight for your life

For Deadpool and the Joker: They’re Coming To Take Me Away by Napoleon XIV

They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa
To the funny farm. Where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be
happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14sZGLnHXxs

For Velocity the only song I could find that fit was “Speed” by Montgomery Gentry

“Yeah, what I really need is an open road And a whole lot of speed”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nD6ndQNSCYY

Another for Elizabeth Bradshaw: “Whatever” by Our Lady Peace

There's no holding me back
I'm not driven by fear
I'm just driven by anger
And you're under attack
I'm just climbing up slowly
I'm the one and only, I...

The tease, the ways you lie
They stumble in your mind
The fear, the hope inside
They hit here

But whatever you need
-Ever you got
-Ever you want
I’ll take back again
Whatever you need
-Ever you got
-Ever you want now
I’ll take back again

There's no holding me back
I'm not driven by fear
I'm just driven by anger
And you're under attack
I'm just climbing up slowly
I'm the one and only, I...

The tease, the ways you lie
They stumble in your mind
The fear, the hope inside
They hit here

But whatever you need
-Ever you got
-Ever you want now
I’ll take back again

And for the Kansas City Ice Machine: “A Country Boy Can Survive” by Hank Williams Jr.

Because you can’t starve us out
And you cant makes us run
Cause we’re them old boys raisin on shotguns.
And we say grace and we say Ma’am
And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn

Realize this, if you think the needs of the many outweigh the heeds of the few. One of these days you, my friend, will be one of the few.

I was going to suggest the Hulk Hogan theme for Cap as well. Kinda cheesy though.

And what is wrong with cheesiness, huh?? As I always say when in the process of making a sandwich; "pass the cheese, please"!!

I don't know if this is still relevent, considering the post if from Aug 5.

I feel that my character's theme could not be one song. Every character is special in their own way. Everything that they go through good and bad could actually have a song that fits it.

For example, if a hero (or villian for that matter), if going through a on and off relationship, he or she may be inclinded to have the theme of:

"Never Say Never" By The Fray

"Somethings we don't talk about,
Rather do without and just hold the smile,
falling in and out of love....to gather all the while."

Or possibly if the hero is just getting his head bashed in a fight with his arch-enemy, then all of a sudden his has that moment of clarity and just starts returning the favor. A song for that would be:

"Headstrong" By Trapt

"Back on, to take you on,
headstrong to take on anyone"

Also, what would the theme be representing? Would it represent your personality, past experiences, goals, etc.? Every single little detail could have a song put to it, or at least wrtten about it.

However I die-gress. As I wrote this little munch of words, I thought of a few possible canidates. The final verdict ended up being:

"To Be Loved" By Papa Roach (In context of his hate for evil, and his need to be loved and acccepted.)

'She Wolf' by Shakira.

Lets face it, that song is so fitting for this character.

You're telling me!

A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy

Another song I reckon fits The Raver is Frank Sinatra's 'I Did It My Way'!

I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
I've had my fill - my share of losing.
But now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way -
Oh no. Oh no, not me.
I did it my way.

Regrets? I've had a few,
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

Okay, I know that last verse is from a different part of the song than those other two! I just reckon those three verses sum him up, you know?
