Playlist for your Story

So, make a 10-20 song long playlist for the story you're working on. Can include anything (e.g. pop, classical, movie soundtrack), totally fine if there's swearing. Please post a YouTube link after the title of the song.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one who does this.
Here's one of mine:

Question: Are they supposed to be in order by events in the story, like a soundtrack? Or is it just songs pertaining to the story?

@Becfromthedead group

I guess you could interpret it how you want. I'm doing mine more on the basis of overall aesthetic.

Does one have to link the songs or can I just put down the tittles?

Does anyone have a good song for running away? In my story, someone's shooting up the place that my character is currently in, so she ties the hospital blankets together and uses them as a rope to climb down and manages to escape.

Same here.

@yeetus

Mine is really more of a soundtrack, except I'm lazy and I haven't ordered it yet

I started putting together a playlist for one of my stories after seeing this thread since it's something I've been meaning to do. Some of the songs are there to represent really specific moments or characters and not really the story as a whole. Anyways, here it is:

  • High- Sir Sly
  • Wish I Knew You- the Revivalists
  • Trouble- Cage the Elephant
  • 13- Allan Rayman
  • Whatever It Takes- Imagine Dragons
  • Natural- Imagine Dragons
  • The Stand- Mother Mother
  • You're Gonna Go Far Kid- The Offspring
  • Live In The Moment- Portugal. The Man
  • Stressed Out- 21 Pilots
  • Ride- 21 Pilots
  • Who's With Me- USS
  • Blood//Water- Grandson
  • Bit By Bit- Mother Mother

Too lazy to link all the songs individually, but the playlist is here if anyone wants to take a look. It's still a work in progress, so I may add some more songs later.

@yeetus

Nice

@RainClouds_Itachi_

wheezes I have a playlist I listen to while writing my story, and most of the songs were added cuz I thought they fitted well with my characters and their relationships rather than events (but there are some for events). but oh well I guess, here you go, this is my playlist.

@yeetus

Nice
