Your character's theme song

Bringing this over from the old forums, so what's your character's theme song and why?

If a Skull Could Blush
Andy Mauser - "Teenage Dream" Why? Ever since finishing the story, I've had that damn song stuck in my head for no reason at all and I kept visualizing a montage between Andy and Death set to it... It's kind of hilarious.
Death - "Baby Mine" from the Dumbo soundtrack. Death is a maternal and romantic figure to Andy, especially in his tormented childhood.
Konrad - "Ride of the Valkyries" He's a seven-foot stack of BOMBAST.

Drown in the Waters of Life

Gravesend: "Ghosts I - 1+2" - Nine Inch Nails. Not his literal theme song, but more like how he sees the wasteland haranguing him; as a living, changing organism, scornful of his parasitic existence upon the scarred, scorched skin. A slow, but eventual whisper... of pure hatred. The lack of lyrics points to how Gravesend only has a general vibe of that hatred; he can't tell the specifics. An ambiance of seething anger. An atmosphere of bottled rage. That's what this is.

Jericho: "Discipline + Head Down + Letting You" - Nine Inch Nails. Simple enough; Jericho's relationship to the wasteland is destructive to both himself and all around him, but he can't resist the thrill, the pride, the satisfaction of living on a rusted razor. What makes it worse; he knows it's killing him, and he embraces it. He knows that he is the scourge that makes the surface terrible. That's the only thing that keeps him going.

Ashecroft: "Lights in the Sky" - Nine Inch Nails. The smooth, calm nature of the music is much like Ashecroft herself- a hardened, determined shell of a woman around a singular motive; kill the ones who ruined her life. The way the song speaks of two individuals refers to how Ashecroft has literally set her life aside to pursue the killers.

If you're wondering, I used Nine Inch Nails for all of it to keep things nice and consistent.

I've got this theme sing for ever book I write. It's just so that it appeals to each of my books in one way or another. Many of my characters share a similiarity of being parentless. They roam the streets, free and exposed to the fates.
