The Song: Indestructible by Disturbed.
I keep wanting to do this, or something similar, as a story, actually. Perhaps when she hits 50.

Okay, I'm not going to post any links in this until I can get my hands on a 'puter with access to youtube, but this is an awesome idea.
The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise.
; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise 
; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.* My favorite fighting song is The Cooper Temple Clause: Promises Promises
Infinitron would likely do 'My Friend(s)' from Sweeney Todd but with his rifle in lue of the razors of course.

Scott "stryke" Tyrell, wandering through the broken gates of his old units base, passing the broken and disused aircraft he used to share with his squadmates before the decimation by the rikti then subsequant plundering by Aeon/Crey.
Then pausing at his old hangar to reflect on old times...cannot think of a better tune than this...

Heh. Haven't heard that expression for a long time
First one is not entirely umpredictable: Sharrapu (my demonic fire/dark corruptor) blazing through Skyway City after robbing the bank, scattering Longbow agents and PPD SWATs as she tears the place to pieces to the tune of "Firestarter" by The Prodigy
One more. For the road so to speak.
Scene- Twilighter working in the white cats Lab, on something no doubt frowned on by the American science community, something that'll probably get stopped by Momma Leandrea
Song- Science Genius Girl - Freezepop
Brawling Cactus from a distant planet.
My avatar of battle Warscythe, ploughing through a cavernous section of one of Cimerora's underground lairs bases....decimating all of Romulus' finest...cleaving through the troops like cardboard looking for a "worthy opponent"
Standing on a precipice facing a Cyclops, he smiles under his hood and draws his blade........
All to Molossus by James Newton Howard and Hans Zimmer ....so perfect

Yep the ending from the Racoons why don't modern day shows have such cool openings and endings?

Soppy i know, but what Cass hears when she sees Richard, this plays.
Guillemots - Made Up Love Song #43
Okay, so slight variation on the 'what would be your character's theme song' idea.
One of the best remembered episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was Once More With Feeling, an episode where a demon turned up and set the entire town to singing and dancing. It featured a number of set piece musical numbers by the cast members to continue the story, or just provide character illumination.
So, let's say the Circle of Thorns cast a spell over Paragon City resulting in our characters suddenly bursting into song for no apparent reason. What would be the scene, and what would be the song?
As an example, and the tune that made me think of this idea, here's one for Shadowe.
The scene: Andrew Martin, Psychonova, has captured Shadowe and is considering what he should do from there.
The song: I Can't Decide by the Scissor Sisters, as successfully employed in a well known Doctor Who episode.
I can't help but feel that Psychonova was slightly influenced by The Master, and the idea of having him bouncing around a powerless Shadowe singing this is just made of win. Cassandra, Nitoichi and Liberty Girl in maid's outfits and power suppressors would just complete the picture.
And then this came on the playlist...
The scene: Huntington Manor's conservatory.
The cast: Nitoichi and Richard.
The song: Kids - Robbie Williams and Kylie Minogue.
It's the last bit, in the hot tub...
Oh, and finally, there's somekind of heart-wrenching angst ridden thing involving Liberty Girl and Ni and Hero by Chad Kruger, but it seriously doesn't fit with the current roleplay. It plays on Annette/Ni's fear that she isn't a real hero, but Libby is: "It isn't the love of a hero/And that's why I fear it won't do."
