Songs that make you think of LTROI
Re: Songs that make you think of LTROI
There's a song that starts with "I am a young boy, left on your doorstep."
I can't find it! Help!
I can't find it! Help!
“For drama to deepen, we must see the loneliness of the monster and the cunning of the innocent.”

For me its Dreamer by Ozzy
Really makes me think of Oscar and Eli.
Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her
Sometime
After all, there's only just the two of us
And here we are, still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after time
I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us
This time
I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
Oh yeah
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesn't really matter much to me
Without each other's help, there ain't no hope for us
I'm living in a dream, a fantasy
Oh yeah…

Re: Songs that make you think of LTROI
The closest I know is the first verse of "Heart of steel" by Justin Hayward. It has the line: "
I was left on your doorstep one gray morning..."
Sorry. I hope this helps!

Not sure if this was supposed to include music inspired by LTROI, but I will throw in my favorite (by far):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe2qzxuOj20
This with static album cover and better sound.
Or
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-gCbiix ... re=related
This has scenes from the movie, which tie together with the song nicely.
Not sure why but this one gets to me every time I hear it, though not a much as Eli's theme.
While wandering here between posts and FF, I am gradually getting convinced, that I haven't seen anywhere more beautiful madness than on this forum. Clubmeister

I must have copied the second URL wrong, Go to thestitch where his URL works,
“For drama to deepen, we must see the loneliness of the monster and the cunning of the innocent.”
Re: Songs that make you think of LTROI
I have had the same thoughts, especially regarding the video and those goth kids:
But from the beginning Eli was just Eli. Nothing. Anything. And he is still a mystery to me. John Ajvide Lindqvist

Very cool
Re: Songs that make you think of LTROI
Totally the video and the lyrics just seem to "fit." A cool video and song for them both lol
(but I still like the "official" Eli's theme.)

Re: Songs that make you think of LTROI
I just heard Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer and the ethereal sound and whimsical lyrics reminded of Oskar and Eli. Like something they would have been listening to while solving a puzzle one night in the late 90s.
Hit back. Hard.
