House Theme Songs  
I've had songs stuck in my head all day. Music on the brain. Even in a top secret post to my housemates today I couldn't help but quote Galinda from Wicked! The musical. It's a theme...

And because I'm oh-so-talented, I thought I'd tie it in here...

Sooooo....

Think about the various houses here at Hogwarts and think of music. What theme song would you give each house? Galinda's song "Popular" (from Wicked) for Slytherin? "You've got a friend in me" (from Toy Story) for Hufflepuff?

Feel free to go with stereotypes - they make it all that much more fun ;) Plus they entertain me.



Slytherin: "Popular" from Wicked

Hufflepuff: "You've Got a Friend In Me" from Toy Story

Gryffindor: "1812 Overture" by Tchaikovsky

Ravenclaw: "I'm Just a Bill" from School House Rock

"Criminal" by Fiona Apple, for our own house.

Dammit. Now I must do an all-TMBG version.

Gryffindor- "Boss of Me"
Hufflepuff- "Snail Shell"
Ravenclaw- "Till My Head Falls Off"
Slytherin- "No One Knows My Plan" (although They have quite a few Slytherinesque songs!)

Since I'm a Maroon 5 addict I'd have to go with "She Will Be Loved" fro Hufflepuff. It's all about loyalty to the one you love. At least I think it is.

For some reason now I'm thinking Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" from Rocky for Gryffindor. "It's the eye of the lion, it's the thrill of the match..."

*ahem*

i can't think of any others

:(

*LOL* I agree with you totally - on the Rocky song! Great, now that'll be stuck in my head too. :D

I like to call them Buddy Holly/Weezer glasses. And sadly, mine have a name. Their name is Jonas.

Hmm...some houses are easier than others. However...my own is really enigmatic. I think we cultivate it somewhat-I get the feeling that many of the employees of the Dept. of Mysteries are former Ravenclaws.

However, we can also be straightforward. We get frustrated when something seems logical and others aren't doing it. But we don't just charge in-we need something to back it up. "You gotta back it all up-can you talk the talk?"

In other words: Walk the Walk-Poe (http://s5.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=05CNU9KLYR6MD3SVO215GM5TL3)

We walk our OWN walk. Gryffindors are brave, Slytherins are clever, Hufflepuffs are loyal-and Ravenclaw does what it feels is best.

Slytherins~~ Robbie Williams "Most Handsome Man" (just go read the lyrics..tee hee)
Hufflepuff~~ Three Dog Night ~~ "Black and White" (or maybe "why cant we be friends?" by WAR
Gryffindor~~ Europe "Final Countdown"
Ravenclaw~~ ahh..cant think of anything...."Where is my mind?" by the pixies (I know, that doesnt fit at all..but it has mind in the title!!)

The all Richard Thompson version-

Gryffindor- "Georgie On A Spree"
Hufflepuff- "Sisters"
Ravenclaw- "Read About Love"
Slytherin- "The Egypt Room"

Hufflepuff: The Postal Service - Nothing Better
Ravenclaw: bright eyes - a line allows progress, a circle does not (I always thought it was very Ravenclaw to have far too many thoughts in your head)
Gryffindor: N*sync - It's gonna be me (oh god..*dies laughing* sorry...There IS actually a reason behind this choice....)
Slytherin: Sheryl Crow might not fit the typical Slytherin image, but "All I wanna do" is a way of life.

There was....drinking....and a long discussion about N*sync and Gryffindors..it was THAT kind of night...

Trust me, there was reasoning behind it. But I think I have to have a tumbler of whisky and a good helping of vodka in my system befor eI can remember it...

plus annoying the Gryffindors is always worth a hangover :P
[identity profile] vampirehobbit.livejournal.com on April 9th, 2005 01:17 am (UTC)
Hmmmm...

Ravenclaw- Simon and Garfunkel; "I am a Rock" because Ravenclaw as a house always struck me as strong in a reserved non-show-offish sort of a way
Gryffindor- Queen; "We Are the Champions" well,I'm a Slytherin myself, but this seems like the kind of song such a boisterous house might take as an anthem ^^
Hufflepuff- The Beates; "With a Little Help from My Friends" I think this says a lot about the puff's wonderful loyalty

It's the weirdest thing... but the only Theme song I can't come up with at the moment is the one for my own house! *cries* I'm so ashamed!

Goodness. Am out of the loop on popular music, apparently. >.< BUT I am obsessed with the Beatles, so here goes it, Beatles style.

Gryffindor: "Helter Skelter" Loudness and Craziness.

Ravenclaw: "Across the Universe" You know, real meaning of life stuff...

Slytherin: "Polythene Pam"... er, I don't know why... Because it's different, bold and sexy? I tend to think of our Slytherin counterparts like that.

Hufflepuff: Actually I agree with the person above. "With a Little Help from My Friends" is totally Puffish. 'Cause Ringo is a TOTAL Hufflepuff.

Glam rock style, now.

Gryffindor: "Rock and Roll Part Two" Gary Glitter.

Ravenclaw: "Sweet Jane" Velvet Underground. This song has such a mellow, quasi-intellectual feel, in my opinion.

Hufflepuff: "Children of the Revolution" by T. Rex I think it's a real "group unity" sort of song.

Slytherin: "Ziggy Stardust" by David Bowie. The ultimate glam rock song for the ultimate glam rock house.

"I'm just a Bill" for Ravenclaw? lol I'm going to be singing that all day now.

"Back in Black" AC/DC for Slytherin

"Eye of the Tiger" for Gryffindor

"Celebration" by Kool and the Gang for Hufflepuff

That Mr. Roboto song for Ravenclaw

SO MUCH LOVE! Sweeney Todd! Assassins! Little Shop of Horrors!

Let's see if I can rock the house(s) Les Miserables-style.

Gryffindor- "Red and Black"
Hufflepuff- "Bring Him Home"
Ravenclaw- "Look Down"
Slytherin- "Beggars at the Feast"
[identity profile] aurora-borialis.livejournal.com on April 9th, 2005 04:36 am (UTC)
I can only really think of one at the moment:

Hufflepuff: 'Your My Best Friend' by Queen

and I also totally agree with the "Eye of the Tiger" for Gryffindor.

Aurora, 'Puff

Any musical geeks here?

I always thought that "The Impossible Dream" from Man of La Mancha was THE Gryffindor song...
And I'd say "Good and Evil" from Jekyll & Hide for Slytherin.

Have to think about the other houses...

Maybe "That's What Friends Are For"... who sang that? Dione Warwick? For Hufflepuff.

Ravenclaw seems to be most difficult for me. Maybe "I Need To Know" from Jekyll & Hide....

Time for me to jump on the musical bandwagon.

*blows dust of RENT cd's* I should listen to this again...

Slytherin - "One Song Gloy" for the more emo-y Slytherins, "Take Me or Leave Me"

Gryffindor - "Our Tonight" for the antsy Gryffindors,

Hufflepuff - "I'll Cover You" because Angel's the token Hufflepuff, "Seasons of Love"

Ravenclaw - "La Vie Bohem" cause I can only see Ravenclaws rhyming "Buddha" and "Pablo Neruda",
[identity profile] medens-lupus.livejournal.com on April 9th, 2005 11:01 pm (UTC)
i, of course meant "Out Tonight"
[identity profile] soleil-luna.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 04:35 pm (UTC)
Wicked-themed. :)

Gryffindor. The Wizard and I.
Ravenclaw. Wonderful.
Hufflepuff. Dancing Through Life.
Slytherin. No Good Deed. (Really good reason, not the obvious. :)

Killers-themed.

Gryffindor. Mr. Brightside.
Ravenclaw. Change Your Mind.
Hufflepuff. On Top.
Slytherin. Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine.

-Morgan, Hufflepuff
