What would you say are the Phalanx's theme songs?

I'm working on a series of music videos, and I've got songs for Synapse, Statesman, and Manticore, but I just cannot figure out what to use for Positron and Sister Psyche.

I'm really looking for songs that convey their personalities and/or backgrounds, with stuff like powers as a secondary consideration. I am not looking for songs that are appropriate in name only (for example, "Can't Get You Out of My Head" by Kylie Minogue, while a very catchy song, isn't quite right for Sister Psyche).

Any ideas? (And if you post a suggestion, please just add a quick sentence as to why you think the song fits - it'll help when I listen to it to try and put it in a context.)

For whom? I'm not doing one video that features the ENTIRE Phalanx at once - the individual members are each getting a video.

Positron: Atomic (Blondie) or Neutron Dance (Pointer Sisters). These should be self-explanatory.

Sister Psyche: Dizzy (as covered by Vic Reeves and the Wonderstuff) - for the lyrics, really...

'I'm so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool it never ends
And it's you, girl, making it spin...'

Oh Positron is easy.

Sister Psyche

Just the first two to pop in my head.

Even though you already have one, I'd like to propose this one for Statesman anyway.

Do they -have- to have lyrics?

If not... Positron

*Edit* Could start out the video (in the slow section of the music) with him -before- the lab accident which gave him his powers. Then, as it picks up, the accident. Then the aftermath. And finally: Positron kicking all kinds of behind all over the place. Trapped in his tin-can.

Nope, doesn't have to have lyrics to it, if it's a really good piece of instrumental, I'm all for hearing it.

This.

I can totally picture a Sister Psyche TV series with opening credits to this and titles saying "Annie Wersching as Sister Psyche"

By the way if you ever decide to make a Back Alley Brawler video may I suggest Flo Rida - Right Round

(close your eyes and ignore the video)

Manticore:

Because he's the deepest thinker on the team, IMO. And the lyrics seems to mimic how I think he thinks.

Whenever I see the name "Sister Psyche", I'm immediately reminded of Juke Joint Jezebel" by KMFDM:

Lyrics:
I can't reject this empty hole.
I cannot count this bloody cost.
I can't believe this wretched soul.
Come Penetrate all this loss.
Come on and kill this sense of life,
And be the one who is denied.
Now show me one more upturned knife,
And fill the emptiness inside!

Be mine, sister salvation.
Juke-Joint-Jezebel is coming for my cremation
Be mine, sister salvation.
Closer now - see the revelation.

If I could leave my burning skin,
That has been used up in your skin.
Is there a tiny part of me,
Untouched -- unsoiled by misery!

I am the city that will lie.
You are the one that blame passed by.
This is the place where I will weep.
The lonelisness of sweet conceit!

The revelation.
See the revelation.
The revelation.

The entire Phalanx?
Dragonforce - Through the Fire and the Flames

I would think one of them would warrant Disturbed 'Indestructible'. Not sure which.

I'd give Synapse; Awake, by Godsmack.

And while it's not Phalanx, I'd give Inferno; Stone Sour - Fruitcake

Eh, the original is better, and I think more appropriate to Back Alley Brawler since he started in the 80s.

Not really... the hip hop beat works better since he's more of a street-level hero.

You -do- realize that 'Street' in the 80s meant something FAR different than 'Street' today, right?

Need I remind you all of the horrors of missing your bus?

-Rachel-

*Edit* It's also worth mentioning that he was around 20 in the 80s. How many Forty+ year old guys do you know who like modern hip hop covers of songs they didn't like when they were twenty? :P

As a matter of fact, I do.

But we're talking about a 2009 audience

EDIT: On second thought: "The Message" might work better.

And a 2009 audience shouldn't be given music that doesn't fit the character. The lyrics of Flo-Rida's modified refrain aren't even -veiled- sexual innuendo. Brawler's a married man who is also a retired (More or Less) hero. Having him run around talking about oral sex doesn't fit very well.

The Message is perfect for BABs or of course this.

And the streets in the 80s weren't that different than they are today.....they weren't too fun in the 70s either. (i.e. they were just as dangerous maybe more in some areas)
