AntiBeeSpray September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 Just for fun... What are some songs that fit X-Files characters? Can be shipper, non shipper, or show or specific character related. I'll kick it off :). Be Without You -- Mary J. Blige (for M&S's relationship overall) November Rain -- Guns and Roses (for sad times between them) Take my Breath Away -- Berlin (when they first started going out together) Is this love -- Whitesnake (their relationship, especially Mulder) Chicago - Hard To Say I'm Sorry (fits their relationship) You're the inspiration -- Chicago (fits them too) After all these years -- Journey (kind of fits them) Magic -- The Cars (fits them, along with the chemistry overall) I Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore -- REO Speedwagon (fits them) Devoted -- Lacuna Coil (kind of fits them) Looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with.

Taryn74 September 25, 2014 Share September 25, 2014 U2's Exit always makes me think of Mulder in Gethsemane. I normally wouldn't post all the lyrics to a song like the fangurl that I am...LOL....but just check this out. Is this late S4 Mulder or what?!? You know he got the cureYou know he went astrayHe used to stay awakeTo drive the dreams he had awayHe wanted to believeIn the hands of love His head it felt heavyAs he cut across the landA dog started cryingLike a broken hearted manAt the howling windAt the howling wind He went deeper into blackDeeper into whiteCould see the stars shiningLike nails in the nightHe felt the healingHealing, healingHealing hands of loveLike the stars shiny shinyFrom above Hand in the pocketFinger on the steelThe pistol weighed heavyHis heart he could feelWas beating, beatingBeating, beating oh my loveOh my love, oh my loveOh my love My love Saw the hands that buildCan also pull down The hands of love 2 Link to comment
queequeg October 22, 2014 Share October 22, 2014 I Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore -- REO Speedwagon (fits them) I'm listening to this right now. I came to actually post this song b/c it came up on my playlist, but then saw you already did. I'm dying over here. 2 Link to comment

queequeg October 23, 2014 Share October 23, 2014 (edited) Nice :). What other songs do you think fit them and/or fit the X-Files in general? That's all I have so far. Today was apparently 80's rock ballad day for me at work. Made for some feels. :) ETA: There's always the obvious: David Duchovny - Bree Sharp Mulder and Scully - Catatonia And I still swear, even though the lyrics have nothing to do with anything... I hear Bad Blood by Bastille and I think of the episode. Oh! And the music video for Pompeii by Bastille everyone has oil eyes. Bastille... covert X-Files fans? ;) Edited October 23, 2014 by queequeg 1 Link to comment
AntiBeeSpray October 23, 2014 Author Share October 23, 2014 I have one for Diana Fowley: Evil Woman -- Electric Light Orchestra Link to comment
queequeg December 18, 2014 Share December 18, 2014 Here's a nice, depressing one... lol I think in some twisted way it reminds me of everything and everyone that Mulder and Scully lost over the years, and in the end "it's always just been you and me." Visually, the lyrics remind me of "Field Trip" too. Remains - Bastille I came here for sanctuaryAway from the winds and the sounds of the cityI came here to get some peaceWay down deep where the shadows are heavy I can't help but think of youIn these four walls my thoughts seem to wanderTo some distant centuryWhere everyone we know is six feet under When all of our friends are dead and just a memoryAnd we're side by side, it's always been just you and meFor all to see When our lives are overAnd all that remainsAre our skulls and bonesLet's take it to the grave And hold me in your armsHold me in your armsI'll be buried here with youAnd I'll hold in these hands, all that remains I don't want to rest in peaceWe can haunt each other's dreamsWe'll fight underneath this dirtAnd bicker away in darkness We'll find a way to resolveOur banes from the land of the livingAnd we'll find uncovered groundFall in love all over again When all of our friends are dead and just a memoryAnd we're side by side, it's always been just you and meFor all to see When our lives are overAnd all that remainsAre our skulls and bonesLet's take it to the grave And hold me in your armsHold me in your arms I'll be buried here with youAnd I'll hold in these hands, all that remains From dusk to dawn, when I have screamedGrows silent in defeatI know I chased a memoryBut you used to taste so sweet As you fade awayI realise it's all overAnd nothing stays the sameBut skull and bones remain When all of our friends are dead and just a memoryAnd we're side by side, it's always been just you and meFor all to see When our lives are overAnd all that remainsAre our skulls and bonesLet's take it to the grave Hold me in your armsHold me in your armsI'll be buried here with youAnd I'll hold in these hands, all that remains 1 Link to comment
AntiBeeSpray March 29, 2015 Author Share March 29, 2015 Just found a new song for M & S :). Friends and Lovers -- Incubus I'm an empty wellRunning out of black goldIt's high time I pulled overAnd walked around for a while I've seen the porcelain shellYour exoskeletonAnd I feel like we'd walk well together Because in the end, we are friends and lovers If asked of me I wouldGobble them to bitsThe things that wall us off fromWhere we belong What's wrong with you is goodFor what's wrong with meAnd I think maybe we should stick together Because in the end, we are friends and loversWe are friends and lovers Abandon all the bonesWe've got to pickThey'll only weigh us down andWe are better than that If they all throw stonesStart a collectionOf everything we're notAnd won't be-cause You should never have to defend(Never have to defend)Being friends and loversBeing friends and lovers (oh)Being friends and lovers Found a couple by Ozzy Osborne that fit them. Lay Your World on Me (it has a s4 and s5 M & S vibe to it imo) I know you think you're all aloneI haven't been there when you've needed meI didn't deserve the love you gaveBut now I'm telling you I'm here if you need a friend Give me your painGive me your angerLet me be your rockI can be the pillar of strength that you needI'll help you keep it all togetherIt's better late than neverLay your world on meI can take the weight Don't let it twist you up insideTime never fails to make the heartache stopYou've got to let those feelings goI'll give you everything I can if you say the word Give me your painGive me your angerLet me be your rockI can be the pillar of strength that you needI'll help you keep it all togetherIt's better late than neverLay your world on meI can take the weight We all laugh and we all cryWe all hurt the same insideWe all fall down and we lose faith in who we really areBut if we bend instead of breakThe choice for us is to make it togetherLay your world on me I'll help you keep it all togetherIt's better late than neverLay your world on meLay your world on meLay your world on meI can take the weight Here for You I remember all the good timesSometimes I'd wonder would it lastI used to dream about the futureBut now the future is the past I don't wanna live in yesterdayCross my heart until I dieDon't wanna know just what tomorrow may bringBecause today has just begunNo matter whatever else I've doneI'm here for youI'm here for you So now I sit here and I wonderWhat ever happened to my friends?Too many bought a one way ticketBut I'll be with you 'til the end I don't wanna live in yesterdayCross my heart until I dieDon't wanna know just what tomorrow may bringBecause today has just begunNo matter whatever else I've doneI'm here for you You're my religion, you're my reason to liveYou are the heaven in my hellWe've been together for a long long timeAnd I just can't live without youNo matter what you do, I'm here for you I don't wanna live in yesterdayCross my heart until I dieDon't wanna know just what tomorrow may bringBecause today has just begunNo matter whatever else I've doneI'm here for youI'm here for youI'm here for youI'm here for you Link to comment
festivus February 14, 2016 Share February 14, 2016 (edited) Ha Ha that David Duchovny song, I forgot about that one. I'm listening to it right now. ETA: She's got a new 2016 version. lol. Now she's gonna kiss Scully instead of killing her. Edited February 14, 2016 by festivus 1 Link to comment
Jac February 18, 2016 Share February 18, 2016 You and I are a Gang of Losers by the Dears has been my Mulder and Scully song for well over a decade now, Link to comment
AllyinthekeyofX February 19, 2016 Share February 19, 2016 Take my hand by Dido really hit a chord with me when I first heard it years ago. It lived in my head for a long time. I even wrote a fic based around it. I still love that sing today. Link to comment
Sharna Pax September 23, 2018 Share September 23, 2018 This John Prine song came out this spring, and it strikes me as just right for "Nothing Lasts Forever"-era Mulder and Scully. It was the line about New Year's Eve that first caught my attention, but really the whole song reminds me of them. It's about age, and heading into a new season of life, and missing someone you used to be close to, and reconciliation and forgiveness. Fair warning: if there's anyone you miss right now, it might make you cry. Link to comment
