So after the release of the "Take me home, country roads" trailer featuring the John Denver song they have really stepped up the quality of this film, and I hope the song features in the actual movie. A good well known song that emotes to the film can make such a difference to how the viewer perceives and remembers the film. It adds another dimension and layer to the experience.

Think of Guns n' Roses "you could be mine" in T2, or Little Richards "Long tall sally" in Predator as excellent Sci-fi examples. Classic memorable films that portrayed the era of those films.

The perspective "Take me home" gives to the film is a feeling of melancholy, nostalgia (wheat fields) and homesickness. It is also builds on Ridley Scotts Truckers-in-space feel he was trying to portray in the original Alien, with the country vibe of the song.

What other songs do you all think would suit this film, and would like see featured in the movie???

Here are my top 4. I've tried to stick with classic bluesy/country/rock song.

 

1. If I ever leave this world alive - Flogging Molly (how fitting)

2. Walk all over you - AC/DC ( Aussie Rock m/ )

3. Rock n Roll - Led Zeppelin

4. Electric Worry - Clutch

NINXENO426 - Stabbing Westward are one of my favorite bands. I am very fond of electronic metal, industrial metal, and techno metal. :)

NINXENO426 - Hahaha! It is very good to know there are others whom enjoy such music! Indeed; certain bands might be a little too, um, "energetic" to post. However, if you could provide a link to Haunting Me for DK, I would be greatly appreciative. I do not know how to undertake the action. :)

Something Real I see perversion in many genres of music. To each their own, but I enjoy bands who push limits and have the musical chops to back it up- I doubt you would like GWAR.

FFDP is Five Finger Death Punch- a band I would call "Bro- Metal". Good musicians but boring public radio music imo.

DK - Oh! I see. Thank you ever so much for the clarification! With regards to music with a more perverse inclination: I am fond of some - to an extent. I greatly enjoy music that has subtley sensual tones that leave some to the imagination. Ramstein, in my opinion, are simply, hmm, very forward with their intentions! :)

Stabbing Westward was a great band too and yes that cover of Hurt by Johnny Cash is brilliant, so haunting. I think its currently being used as the theme song for Logan??

Something Real I don't understand German, so maybe they are more perverse than I know. Generally, I think though perverse, it is honest.

The best way I can describe it is this way:

We can watch movies like the Alien series and think it is great. A lot of bands do the same thing but it is in an audio format. I hope that makes sense.
