For my asura warrior: "under the dark span", the asura theme from GW1. Because I love Jeremy Soule and because i would prefer a main theme that fits the rest of the soundtrack.

But also because it tells quite well what my character is, the expression of its dual nature. Originally, he's a brillant scientist who just dreamed about translating the eternal alchimy and loved the world for what it was. Then he became a leader an a fighter because he understood such an harmony and beauty has to be defended by force. But its dream an comtemplative nature are still here and fuel his determination.

 

This what i thought when I listened. I could change the title in something like "Nadj in Search". Of course, there many others tracks that inspire me but this one tells the essential briefly and nicely.

 

Note: I would have used "a warrior heart" but it's definitely my GW1 character's main theme (and one of the best track of the ost).

I really enjoy the combat in this game from WvW to PvP so my theme song would probably be Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls, S&M version of course.

 

for those who dont know lyrics.Verse 1]

Make his fight on the hill in the early day

Constant chill deep inside

Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey

On they fight, for they're right

Yes, but who's to say?

For a hill, men would kill

Why? They do not know

Stiffened wounds test their pride

Men of five still alive through the raging glow

Gone insane from the pain that they surely know

 

[Chorus]

For whom the bell tolls

Time marches on

For whom the bell tolls

 

[Verse 2]

Take a look to the sky just before you die

It's the last time he will

Blackened roar, massive roar fills the crumbling sky

Shattered goal fill his soul with a ruthless cry

Stranger now are his eyes to this mystery

Hears the silence so loud

Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be

Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see

I love the song, and the version you linked Sojourner! Thanks for sharing that. (Major weakness for all things Celtic and Gaelic, here. <3 )

Gloria Gaynor? Oh boy, I love this song so much!

Not sure how many theme songs I have for various characters, but I think the closest one I have is for my main, Rex. He's based off an RP character from a table top style game (most of my characters names come from that) and I've created a version of him in almost every game I play. In GW2, he's a Revenant Charr. I made the original character to Dillinger Escape Plan's 'Dead As History'...So it's kind of fitting, maybe?

 

Beyond theme songs, I have found myself on bizarre occasions doing certain things to certain songs. Like finding ore and lumber before Tequatl on my Skimmer mount while listening to Static X's 'Stingwray' for awhile. No clue why beyond the name since I think the songs about a car...I also was using Deftones' 'Leathers' during the fight on occasion and for PvP matches. Or putting on a Mastodon album before working on map completion. I also have a weird habit of PvPing to older pop songs and anime themes that are pop-y...No Idea Why It Just Happens.

 

But usually, I just listen to what's in game or whatever is playing via my mood of the day :D
