שירים ודמויות

יצא לכם פעם לשמוע שיר ומיד לחשוב על רעיון מאגניב לדמות? נסו להביא כאן גם את מילות השיר או החלק מהן שרלוונטי לסיפור. אני אתחיל:

Masochism Tango I ache for the touch of your lips, Dear, But much more for the touch of your whips, Dear. You can raise welts Like nobody else, As we dance to the Masochism Tango. Let our love be a flame, not an ember, Say it's me that you want to dismember. Blacken my eye, Set fire to my tie, As we dance to the Masochism Tango. At your command Before you here I stand, My heart is in my hand. Ecch! It's here that I must be. My heart entreats, Just hear those savage beats, And go put on your cleats And come and trample me. Your heart is hard as stone or mahogany, That's why I'm in such exquisite agony. My soul is on fire, It's aflame with desire, Which is why I perspire When we tango. You caught my nose In your left castanet, Love, I can feel the pain yet, Love, Ev'ry time I hear drums. And I envy the rose That you held in your teeth, Love, With the thorns underneath, Love, Sticking into your gums. Your eyes cast a spell that bewitches. The last time I needed twenty stitches To sew up the gash That you made with your lash, As we danced to the Masochism Tango. Bash in my brain, And make me scream with pain, Then kick me once again, And say we'll never part. I know too well I'm underneath your spell, So, Darling, if you smell Something burning, it's my heart. Excuse me! Take your cigarette from its holder, And burn your initials in my shoulder. Fracture my spine, And swear that you're mine, As we dance to the Masochism Tango.​

הדמות שזה העלה לי בראש זה בנקאי ספרדי פשוט שהחליט לעשות הסבה מקצועית לאינקוויזיטור לאחר שאהובתו נטשה אותו

Bloodshot Eyes

I see the world through blood shot eyes Streets filled with blood from distant lies. Dogs of war never compromise There ain't no time for rearranging Help me Jesus , help me Clean My Wounds He said he can't heal that kind Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind He said it happens every time... (Knock it down) Thats how the story goes (Knock it down) In the land of a 1000 nos (Knock it down) I'm all over you In time my mind is changing. Ohh... Knock it down Black on black gives me a heart attack And the silence makes it deadly Some just kill with simple will I've seen them fall fast and steady Help me jesus help me Clean My Wounds He said he cannot heal that kind Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind He said it happens every time... (Knock it down) Thats how the story goes (Knock it down) In the land of a 1000 nos (Knock it down) I'm all over you In time my mind is changing. Twist of fate won't give me a break, And myself I'm slow and tired I've got to rise with these blood shot eyes But i keep falling when im higher Help me jesus help me Clean My Wounds He said he cannot heal that kind Bleeding soul becomes a bitter mind He said it happens every time... (Knock it down) Thats how the story goes (Knock it down) In the land of a 1000 nos (Knock it down) We are bleeding sins and are sins are alwasy fadin... Ohh fadin... Ohh fadin... Ohh fadin... Knock it down, knock it down Knock it down, knock it down Knock it down, knock it down Knock it down, knock it down​

השיר הזה נתן לי רעיון למפלצת, משהו חזק וכמעט בלתי מנוצח. משהו שלא יהיה קל לעצור. משהו שהורג בלי להתאמץ ובא "לנקות את החוטאים" ושלא משנה כמה פעמים מפילים אותו, הוא חוזר.

bits & pieces

Black Sabbath - Johnny Blade Tortured and twisted, he walks the streets alone People avoid him, they know the street's his own Cold blade of silver, his eyes they burn so wild Mean as a tiger, society's own child Those who try to burn him pay You don't do that to Johnny Blade He's the meanest guy around his town One look and he will cut you down Johnny Blade, Johnny Blade​

אלו רק שני הבתים הראשונים, והם לא בדיוק נתנו לי רעיון לדמות. (למרות שיש על מה לבנות) יותר השתמשתי בשיר כדוגמא, להסביר איך בשיטת כשרונות (והשיטה שלי בפרט), דמות יכולה להיות טובה מאד במשהוא (לדוגמא: סכינאות) מבלי להיות בעלת תכונות גבוהות, או טובה בעוד דברים אחרים.

Black Sabbath - Digital Bitch She wears her leather just to satisfy She really throws it around There ain't one thing she can't afford to buy She's the richest bitch in town Her big fat daddy was a money machine He made a fortune from computers She's got more money than I've ever seen But she's a greedy emotional looter Keep away from the digital bitch Keep away from the digital bitch Keep away from the digital bitch She's so rich, the digital bitch She's got five rollers and a fine estate A big house up on the hill She throws parties just to celebrate Her life is just one enormous thrill She buys poor people just to have around She has a trophy for each lover The bitch is rich but baby pound for pound She's got a lot more to discover Maybe she could please me if I saw beneath her veil But she's just an imitation woman up for sale She got so famous that she's on TV She's got a professional smile But I switch over 'cos she ain't for me She disturbs me all the while She looks so happy but she's got it wrong She's always going faster She sings her life to such a different song She needs a loving and dominant master​

כאן הרעיון הרבה יותר ברור: בת עשירים שעושה מה שבראש שלה. אני עדיין מתכוון להכניס אותה לעולם כל שהוא, כסוג של מכשול או הסחת דעת מהרפתקאה גדולה יותר. ואם אף אחד לא רואה את הדמיון, על השיר הזה חשבתי כשכתבתי על רודולפו מארשל. למעשה לא שמעתי את השיר כבר הרבה זמן, אבל ידעתי שלא אוכל להשתמש בשתי דמויות אחרות בשביל המשחק הזה, אז במקום להמשיך לשמוע את הסיפור בעבודה, הקשבתי לBlack Sabbath ונזכרתי בשיר הזה.

bad businessman

bad businessman/Squirrel nut zippers There's a man going around town Spreading lies He's the bad businessman Does his business while he can He just does his business bad. He's a clown Gonna get bounced around If he don't keep his business underground He's a player And everytime he deals a round It's just a bad hand What a bad man. Beware of what he sells Surely go straight to hell. T'aint no bottom in that wishing well. מתחבר לי גם עם דמות של פרידריך בגבדה (ספר גרוע). בנאדם מעונב בבגדים מגוהצים, אך עיניו האדומות מסגירות דברים אחרים. -אם מישהו מכיר את הלהקה הזאת שישרשר משהו.

The Curse of Millhaven / Nick Cave

"The Curse Of Millhaven" / Nick Cave & The bad seeds ... My name is Loretta but I prefer Lottie I'm closing in on my fifteenth year And if you think you have seen a pair of eyes more green Then you sure didn't see them around here My hair is yellow and I'm always a-combing La la la la La la la lie Mama often told me we all got to die You must have heard about The Curse Of Millhaven How last Christmas Bill Blake's little boy didn't come home They found him next week in One Mile Creek His head bashed in and his pockets full of stones Well, just imagine all the wailing and moaning La la la la La la la lie Even little Billy Blake's boy, he had to die Then Professor O'Rye from Millhaven High Found nailed to his door his prize-winning terrier Then next day the old fool brought little Biko to school And we all had to watch as he buried her His eulogy to Biko had all the tears a-flowing La la la la La la la lie Even God's little creatures, they have to die ... Then, in a cruel twist of fate, old Mrs Colgate Was stabbed but the job was not complete The last thing she said before the cops pronounced her dead Was, "My killer is Loretta and she lives across the street!" Twenty cops burst through my door without even phoning La la la la La la la lie The young ones, the old ones, they all gotta die Yes, it is I, Lottie. The Curse Of Millhaven I've struck horror in the heart of this town Like my eyes ain't green and my hair ain't yellow It's more like the other way around I gotta pretty little mouth underneath all the foaming La la la la La la la lie Sooner or later we all gotta die ... אלו היו קטעים נבחרים מ'הקללה של מילהייבן' של ניק קייב. הדמות היא כמובן לורטה, ילדה רצחנית בת 15 שהסברה היא שנכנס בה דיבוק. כוהן החבורה (למשל) עשוי לנסות להוציא את הדיבוק אולם משהרציחות נמשכים מתברר שהילדה היא היא המפלצת - בת אדם שכולה טירוף ורשע.

Big Bad John \ Jimmy Dean

Big John Big John Every mornning at the mine, you could see him arrive. He stood 6 foot 6, weighed 245. Kind of broad at the shoulders, narrow at the hip. And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John. Big John Big John Big Bad John Big John Nobody seemed to know where John called home He just drifted into town and stayed all alone. He didn't say much, kind of quiet and shy And if you spoke at all, you'd just said hi to Big John. Somebody said he came from New Orleans, Where he got into a fight over a Cajun Queen. And a crash and a blow from a huge right hand, sent a Lousiana fella to the promise land. Big John Big John Big bad John Big John Then came the day at the bottom of the mine, when a timber cracked and men started crying. Minors were praying, and hearts beat fast and everybody thought they had breathed thier last cept' John. Through the dust and the smoke of this man made hell, walked a giant of a man that the minors knew well. Grabbed a sagging timber and gave out with a groan, and like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone, Big John Big John Big John Big Bad John Big John And with all of his strength, he gave a mighty shove. Then a minor yelled out, 'theres a light up above!'. And 20 men scrambled from a 'would be' grave now theres only one left down there to save, Big John. With jacks and timbers, they started back down, then came that rumble way down in the ground. And as smoke and gas smelched out of that mine, everybody knew it was the end of the line, for Big John. Big John Big John Big Bad John Big John Now they never re-opend that wortheless pit, they just placed a marble stand in front of it. These few words are written on that stand, 'At the bottom of this mine, lies one Hell of a man, Big John' Big John Big John Big Bad John Big John.

flight of icarus/iron maiden

אין לי כוח לחפש את השיר אבל הוא בעיקרון על איקרוס הבן של המהנדס שבנה את המבוך בכריתים, בקיצור הוא עשה כנפיים מדונג עף קרוב לשם ונפל וטבע, משל מיתולוגי ליהירות הגברית. על האופי שלו הייתי בונה איזה עו"ד ניו יורקי יהיר ומעצבן בטוח בעצמו יותר מידי שכולם שונאים אותו בגלל שיש לו הרבה כסף. בחור מעצבן במיוח שלא מקשיב אפילו לבני האדם שהכי חשובים לו אם בכלל יש לו כאלה.

 

[DIDGIN]

דווקא לא, אבל

אני ושחקנים אחרים בקבוצות שלי חשבנו על שירים קיימים שהדמויות שלנו ישירו, וחלק אף התאמצו וכתבו שירים בעצמם. אני מתכנן על זמר נודד שיעשה מהשיר "מסיבת גג" של שלומי שבן שיר עם.

Frank's Wild Years/Tom Waits

Frank settled down in the Valley, and he hung his wild years on a nail that he drove through his wife's forehead. He sold used office furniture out there on San Fernando Road and assumed a $30,000 loan at 15 1/4 % and put a down payment on a little two bedroom place. His wife was a spent piece of used jet trash Made good bloody-marys, kept her mouth shut most of the time, had a little Chihuahua named Carlos that had some kind of skin disease and was totally blind. They had a thoroughly modern kitchen; self-cleaning oven (the whole bit) Frank drove a little sedan. They were so happy. One night Frank was on his way home from work, stopped at the liquor store, picked up a couple of Mickey's Big Mouth’s. Drank 'em in the car on his way to the Shell station; he got a gallon of gas in a can. Drove home, doused everything in the house, torched it. Parked across the street laughing, watching it burn, all Halloween orange and chimney red. Frank put on a top forty station, got on the Hollywood Freeway headed North. Never could stand that dog.​

ועכשיו, מה צופן עתידו של פרנק?

 

[הבלש חסר הבית]

אני לא זוכר את המילים

אבל שיר הפתיחה של "הפתן השחור" (עונה ראשונה) נותן רעיון לדמות מרושעת מהסוג המעניין, ולא ה"תוהו רשע שמקבל מלא נק"נ)

 

[ogmios]

בוודאי!

למעשה, יש לי חלק שלם באתר הנקרא הפרויקט השחור, שמוקדש לנושא הזה בדיוק. לקחתי את האלבום השחור של מטאליקה, וכתבתי דמות עפ"י כל שיר שם. זה מה שקורה כשהתערבויות בין שחקני HERO System יוצאות משליטה.

 

[מירטל]

לא. ../images/Emo10.gif

מצד שני, אני שומעת בעיקר פופ ושירים עבריים, מה שבדרך כלל לא מסתדר עם דמויות.

לפני שבוע או שבועיים

הרצתי משחק בפרוייקט וורקראפט בפריק, אחרי ששמעתי באותו בוקר את שיר המכתב: (הגאוני) של לאונרד כהן.

It's four in the morning, the end of December. I'm writing you now just to see if you're better. New York is cold but I like where I'm living. There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening. I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert. You're living for nothing now. I hope you're keeping some kind of record. Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair. She said that you gave it to her the night that you planned to go clear. Did you ever go clear? The last time we saw you you looked so much older. Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder. You'd been to the station to meet every train but then you came home without Lili Marlene. And you treated my woman to a flake of your life. And when she came back she was nobody's wife. I see you there with the rose in your teeth, one more thin gypsy thief. Well, I see Jane's awake. She sends her regards. And what can I tell you my brother my killer? What can I possibly say? I guess that I miss you. I guess I forgive you. I'm glad that you stood in my way. If you ever come by here for Jane or for me, I want you to know that your enemy is sleeping. I want you to know that his woman is free. Yes, and thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes. I thought it was there for good, so I never tried. And Jane came by with a lock of your hair. She said that you gave it to her that night that you planned to go clear. Sincerely, L. Cohen.​

אז עשיתי להם איזו הרפתקה שבה גובלין מזדקן על ערש דווי מבקש מהם למצוא מישהו ולהביא אותו אליו. אחרי מסע ארוך, הם מוצאים את האיש עמוק במדבר, שיכור עם חברו ועוטה מעיל רוח כחול, ומגלים שהוא עזב לשם אחרי שהוא שכב עם אשתו של הגובלין הזקן. בסוף הם משכנעים אותו לחזור והם נפרדים על סף המוות. מעבר לזה כל ההרפתקה הייתה מלאה בפאנז והומור, אבל בסוף השמעתי להם את השיר היפיפה כליווי לדמויות הרוכבות אל תוך השקיעה. היה מגניב.
