What rock songs, or any genre for that matter, which are nothing to do with batman remind you of batman and coonjure up images of him and his world? Here are some of mine:

If I could Fly - Helloween
Mein Herz Brennt - Rammstein
Teufel - Megaherz
I'm waiting for the night - Depeche mode

All good songs there, Rammstein the best however.

What about you guys?

Heroes - David Bowie
When The Night Comes - Joe Cocker
I'll Be Around - The Spinners
Hero - Mariah Carey

Sidenote: Sympathy For The Devil by The Rolling Stones makes me think of The Joker and Evil Woman by Electric Light Orchestra makes me think of Poison Ivy.

This reminds me of another thread I thought about doing: What kind of music do you think Batman listens to. I can imagine Batman cruising along in the Batmobile blasting out and singing along "Won't Get Fooled Again" or Bruce being caught by Alfred lipsynching in his underwear to "Old Time Rock And Roll".

Extrodinary Girl- Green Day. Reminds me of Batgirl.
Ghosts of You- My Chemical Romace. Reminds me of when Jason Todd died.
Hellraiser- Ozzy Osbourne. Reminds me of Joker.

The song "Poison" by Alice Cooper just SCREAMS Poison Ivy to me.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams- Green Day. Reminds me of Batman.

Broken-Seether Featuring Amy Lee.

It's a song from The Punisher sountrack.Don't know why...But it kinda reminds me of Batman.:confused:

Not exactly the same...but whenever I hear a U2 song,I think of their "Hold Me,Thrill Me,Kiss Me,Kill Me" from Batman Forever.Same with Seal and "Kiss From A Rose",as well as Prince and "Batdance". :o

Vigilante (Magnum)

"Go call the vigilante!
He'll turn this place upside-down!
Go call the vigilante!
He don't get kicked around!"

On a side note, Behind Blue Eyes (Limp Biskuit) Tends to remind me of the TAS Hatter

I hope you know that The Who originally did that song, Biskit just butchered it. Anyone who think's LB's version is better is about to feel the wrath of a big Who fan.

To get back on topic, "Behind Blue Eyes" can actually be linked to several Batman characters: Batman, Catwoman, Freeze, Two-Face - thier origins can be closely realted to that song.

.....I just feel to sorry for you to say anything else.




As for me....


Sounds of Silence-Simon and Garfunkle: Perfectly embodies Batman and the despair felt by those living in the bad parts of Gotham.

Don't stop me now-Queen: Any batfan listening to this sone must think of The Joker killing people just a little bit.

I'm going slightly mad-Queen: Same deal, but creepyer.

Stary stary night-Don McClain: Call me crazy, but for some reason this song makes me think of the Arkham inmates atending The Joker's funeral, with poison ivy lifting the body into the air with weeds and firefly lighting a funeral pyre.

The Show must go on-Queen: Makes me think of Batman and The Joker duking it out in an old theatre.

I believe that song is called "Vincent", and the way you described it fitting into the Batman world makes it seem even creepier.

The Question
09-29-2005, 09:53 PM
Really? I thought it was called stary stary night. Either way, that's what I see in my head when I listen. The line "how you sufferd for your sanity, how you tried to set them free" remindes me ALOT of how The Joker veiws himself and how his cronies veiw him. A sane man in a crazy world.

The Question
09-29-2005, 09:54 PM

Invisible Man's a little goofy. More reminds me of Robin or Spiderman. Still...

Queen and The Who own!


yes they do. But don't forget Simon and Garfunkle. And Don McClean.

Eh, musically, Who kicked their ass, but I felt more emotion from LB's version. Who sounded more like a Chinese, hermathrodite hooker with a lisp.

Another good song for Batman: Personal Jesus -- Depeche Mode

Nymphetamine - CRADLE OF FILTH (has a darkish feel to it - reminds me of Bats)

Alone I Break - KORN (very lonely...makes me think of Bruce brooding)

Suffocate - COLD

60s BATMAN TV THEME

ELFMANS THEME

There's a song by The Rolling Stones called "Thief In The Night" that reminds me of Catwoman. "I Never Cry" by Alice Cooper sort of reminds me of Batman in that he is almost an emotionlesss character. He has emotion, but he keeps them pent up inside. And then there's a song by Elton John called "House Of Cards" that reminds me of how The Joker seduced Harley Quinn.

Also, Under Pressure makes me think of Batman duking it out with his rogues on the rooftops.

Tonight He Grins Again by Savatage should be the Joker anthem. You've gotta hear this song, the singer sounds like Joker, the lyrics may as well be Joker's life story, plus it's a dark broadway-rock sounding ballad.

Other good songs for the Joker are "Make 'Em Laugh" and "Smile, Darn Ya, Smile."

Dude, "Smile darn ya, smile" always makes me think of The Joker. When I was doing my school play (thge song is from "Annie"), I thought of The Joker singing that while twirling a knife in his hand whenever that number was preformed.

Perhaps we can post the lyrics to the songs we post? S**t, I'll do it:

Behind Blue Eyes:

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

Imagine:

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Here's another song, reminds me of the romance of MOTP:

Sleeping Beauty -- A Perfect Circle

Delusional
I believe I can cure it all for you, dear
Coax or trick or drive or
drag the demons from you
Make it right for you sleeping beauty
Truly thought
I can magically heal you

You're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to rescue

Sleeping Beauty

Drunk on ego
Truly thought I could make it right
If I kissed you one more time to
Help you face the nightmare
But you're far too poisoned for me
Such a fool to think that I can wake you from your slumber
That I could actually heal you..

Sleeping Beauty
Poisoned and hopeless
You're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to find a way to comfort you

Far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
And hiding from some poisoned memory

Poisoned and hopeless
Sleeping Beauty

Ok guys, I'm gonna prove to you that my song I posted WAS for Batman:

Who I Am - Smile Empty Soul

Another night again
Another journey without friends
Another a fight to wish away the loneliness I live

Another circus show
Another face that I don't know
Another night of people asking what I have to give

I thought that I would drown
But it's okay by now

And all along the way I feel a part of me I have to fight
Buried somewhere deep beneath my skin
The emptiness in me is fadin'
I can see my life is waitin'
Now I know I'm livin' for who I am

Now I know I'm livin' for who I am...

The fire grows inside
The feeling can not be denied
when everywhere I turn there's signs because they push me

Well I was fallin' down
But it's okay right now

And all along the way I feel a part of me I have to fight
Buried somewhere deep beneath my skin
The emptiness in me is fadin'
I can see my life is waitin'
Now I know I'm livin' for who I am

When everything seems grey
When everyone is fake
No one really knows you

Look into their eyes
Rip off your disguise
Let 'em see the real you

And all along the way I feel a part of me I have to fight
Buried somewhere deep beneath my skin
The emptiness in me is fadin'
I can see my life is waitin'
Now I know I'm livin' for who I am

Now I know I'm livin' for who I am...

Here are thr lyrics to Alice Cooper's "Poison". If they don't scream Poison Ivy to you, then I don't know what does.

Poisonhttp://lyrics.rockmagic.net/img/b.gif
Your cruel device
Your blood like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you, but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison runnin'thru my veins
You're poison, I don't want to break these chains
Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace on sweat
I hear you calling and it's needles and pins (And pins)
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin (Deep in)
I want to kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison runnin'thru my veins
You're poison, I don't want to break these chains
Poison
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill
I want to love you, but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison runnin'thru my veins
You're poison, I don't want to break these chains
Poison
I want to love you, but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison, yeah
I don't want to break these chains Poison, oh no
Runnin'deep inside my veins, Burnin'deep inside my veins
It's poison I don't want to break these chains

Lirics to Vincent (makes me think of the Arkham inmates at The Joker's funeral):


Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.

Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...

I see Bruce and Talia in this piece by A-Ha titled "Hunting High And Low"
_______________________________________
Here I am
And within the reach of my hands
She sounds asleep and she's sweeter now
Than the wildest dream could have seen her
And I Watch her slipping away
Though I know I'll be hunting high and low

High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Hunting high and low
High
There's no end to lengths I'll go

To find her again
Upon this my dreams are depending
Through the dark
I sense the pounding of her heart
Next to mine
She's the sweetest love I could find
So I guess I'll be hunting high and low

High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and Low
High
Do you know what it means to love you...

I'm hunting high and low
And now she's telling me she's got to go away
I'll always be hunting high and low
Hungry for you
Watch me tearing myself to pieces
Hunting high and low

High
There's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Oh, for you I'll be hunting high and low

This reminds me of Catwoman - Going Under by Evanescence
_______________________________________
Now I will tell you what I've done for you
50 thousand tears I've cried
Screaming Deceiving and Bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
(I’m going under)
Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom
I'm dying again

I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through
I'm going under

Blurring and Stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
I'm dying again

I'm going under
Drowing in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through

So go on and scream
Scream at me I'm so far away
I won't be broken again
I've got to breathe I can't keep going under

Here's a song by Heart that reminds me of the forbidden love between Batman & Catwoman.

Secret

We lead two different lives
Just like two lines that never cross
And here we are together
Standing closer than we are
But we're still standing here untouched
Too scared to make a move
We want so much to touch
And we can't wait forever
We know it's dangerous
For us to be together

How do we ever keep this secret
How do we keep it in the dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or forever stay apart

I watch you coming to me
Walking in the pouring rain
I can't help looking at you
Wishing I could stay away
So many times I've tried in vain
To close my eyes and pray it goes away
But I can't stop myself from feeling
To let you go would be too much
For me to take

How do we ever keep this secret
How do we deep it in the dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or forever stay apart

I can't help thinking
When I look into your eyes
How much I need you
It's so hard to hide

How do we ever keep this secret
How do we keep it in the dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
or forever stay apart.

DEFINATELY PERFECT SONG FOR BATMAN/BRUCE:

METALLICA - UNFORGIVEN (i know this has been mentioned, but just read the lyrics)

New blood joins this earth
and quickly he's subdued
through constant pain disgrace
a young boy learns their rules (Bruce's parents death)

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all his thoughts
a young man struggles on and on he's known
a vow unto his own (Bruce vowing justice)
that never from this day
his will they'll take away

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free (never free from fighting crime)
never me (never himself again)
so I dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all (Batman fights crime, trying to save ppl)
this bitter man he is (Batman is bitter)
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win (fight/war on crime)
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me (Bruce after retiring)

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown

You know wjhat song I was listening to today that reminds me of Batman? "Back In Black" by AC/DC. Especially when you think of the DKR Batman, this song is the perfect Batman anthem.

Back in Black

Back in Black
I hit the sack
I been too long
I'm glad to be back
Yes, I'm dead loose
from the noose that's kept me hanging around.
I'm just, uh, livin' on the side 'cause it's gettin' me high,
forget the hearse cause I never die.
I got nine lives, cat's eyes, (this line could also describe Catwoman)
each and evry one of them is wondrin why,
cause I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Mama, I'm Back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back, back.
Well, I'm back in black, yes I'm back in black! Ow!

Back in the thing,
I drive a Cadillac,
mama, one with a bullit,
I'm a power pack.
Yes, I'm in a band,
with a gang,
they've got to catch me if they want me to hang,
cause I'm back on the track and I'm beatin the fox,
nobody's gonna get me on another rap.
So look at me now, I'm just, uh, makin' my bread,
don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way
cause I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back, back.
Well, I'm back in black, yes, I'm back in black.

(solo)

Well, I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back, back.
Well, I'm back in black, yes, I'm back in black.

(solo)

Well, I'm back, back,
Back, back, back, back,
Back in black, yes, I'm back in black.

Batman and preety much every love interest he's even had.

Massive Attack -- "Angel"

You are my angel
Come from way above
To bring me love

Her eyes
She's on the dark side
Neutralize
Every man in sight

To love you, love you, love you ...

You are my angel
Come from way above

To love you, love you, love you ...

This is a preety good one expressing the two personas of the character:

The Killers -- "All the Thing's That I've Done"

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The cold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
...

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on

I hope you know that The Who originally did that song, Biskit just butchered it. Anyone who think's LB's version is better is about to feel the wrath of a big Who fan.

To get back on topic, "Behind Blue Eyes" can actually be linked to several Batman characters: Batman, Catwoman, Freeze, Two-Face - thier origins can be closely realted to that song.

Sorry, sorry. Didn't notice which version you'd put. I like both versions, it's just I've heard the Biskit one more. But yes, the Who one is amazing. I guess I like them about the same, but that's just me.

Not really a "song" but listen to the music in MAN ON FIRE, when Denzel's character tells the mom what he plans to do and before he does his first interrogation. It's completely and utterly awesome, with only hard guitar and soft chello. The music just suggests a completely and utterly f**ked-up individual.

Love Song For a Vampire - Annie Lennox

Come into these arms again
and lay your body down
The rhythm of this trembling heart
is beating like a drum
It beats for you it bleeds for you
it knows not how it sounds
For it is the drum of drums
it is the song of songs

Once I had the rarest rose
that ever deemed to bloom
Cruel winter chilled the bud
and stole my flower too soon
Oh loneliness Oh hopelessness
to search the ends of time
For there is in all the world
no greater love than mine.

Love o love o .... still falls the rain
Love o love o .... still falls the night
Love o love o .... damned forever

Let me be the only one
to keep you from the cold
Now the floor of heaven is laid
the stars are bright as gold
They shine for you they shine for you
they burn for all to see
Come into these arms again
and set this spirit free

This song is very reminiscent of the Andi/Bruce relationship in MOTP. And Batman is quite like Dracula so it makes sense.

Like A Stone -Audioslave

On a cobweb afternoon
in a room full of emptiness
by a freeway i confess
i was lost in the pages
of a book full of death
reading how we'll die alone
and if we're good we'll lay to rest
anywhere we want to go

(chorus)
in your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i'll wait for you there
like a stone i'll wait for you there
alone

on my deathbed i will pray
to the gods and the angels
like a pagan to anyone
who will take me to heaven
to a place i call
i was there so long ago
the sky was bruised
the wine was bled
and there you led me on

in your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i'll wait for you there
like a stone i'll wait for you there
alone

and on i read
until the day was gone
and i sat in regret
of all the things i've done
for all that i've blessed
and all that i've wronged
in dreams until my death
i will wander on

Moody.Has a hint of Batmanesque style in parts. Also the inherent theme of not letting something go.

Hurt - Johnny Cash


I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel,

I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real.

The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting.

Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become?
My sweetest friend.

Everyone I know
Goes away in the end.

You could have it all
My empire of dirt,

I will let you down
I will make you hurt.

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair,

Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair .

Beneath the stain of time
The feeling disappears,

You are someone else
I am still right here.

What have I become?
My sweetest friend.

Everyone I know
Goes away in the end.

You could have it all
My empire of dirt,

I will let you down
I will make you hurt.

If I could start again
A million miles away,

I would keep myself
I would find a way

The epitome of THE Batman song.

Beautiful song that captures the essense of Batman in its entirety. CAsh was a great singer.

Into the Fire - Bruce Springsteen.

The sky was falling and streaked with blood
I heard you calling me, then you disappeared into the dust.

Up the stairs, into the fire
Up the stairs, into the fire

I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire.

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

You gave your love to see, in fields of red and autumn brown
You gave your love to me and lay your young body down.

Up the stairs, into the fire
Up the stairs, into the fire

I need you near, but love and duty called you someplace higher
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire.

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love.

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

It was dark, too dark to see, you held me in the light you gave
You lay your hand on me
Then walked into the darkness of your smoky grave.

Up the stairs, into the fire
Up the stairs, into the fire

I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire.

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

May your strength give us strength
May your faith give us faith
May your hope give us hope
May your love give us love

May your love bring us love.

Beautiful lyrics that mesh very nicely with the idea of personal sacrifices that is a dominant theme in Batman. Also serves as a nice tribute to the heroism inherent in him.

Sleeping Beauty -- A Perfect Circle

Delusional
I believe I can cure it all for you, dear
Coax or trick or drive or
drag the demons from you
Make it right for you sleeping beauty
Truly thought
I can magically heal you

You're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to rescue

Sleeping Beauty

Drunk on ego
Truly thought I could make it right
If I kissed you one more time to
Help you face the nightmare
But you're far too poisoned for me
Such a fool to think that I can wake you from your slumber
That I could actually heal you..

Sleeping Beauty
Poisoned and hopeless
You're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to find a way to comfort you

Far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
And hiding from some poisoned memory

Poisoned and hopeless
Sleeping Beauty

Wow. Very nice...in a doomed kind of way.

Wake Me Up When September Ends - Green Day


Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my fathers come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my father's come to pass

Broken - Seether


I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away

Though the lyrics aren't the greatest and far from poignant, its the manner in which Seether implements pain into his voice during singing this. The theme is all the Bruce/Andi relationship was about;erasing each other's inherent pains.But then losing each other.

Here are the lyrics to Queen's "I'm Going Slightly Mad", which Question says reminds him of The Joker on a killing spree

I'm Going Slightly Mad

When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue

I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh oh
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Oh dear

I'm one card short of a full deck (The Joker cards he leaves at the crime scenes)
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
This kettle is boiling over
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear

I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - uh huh
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Oh dear

Ooh ooh ah ah
Ooh ooh ah ah
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unravelling fast it's true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear how about you

I'm going slightly mad

"Shadows Of The Night" - Pat Benatar

We're running with the Shadows Of The Night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

You said - oh girl, it's a cold world
When you keep it all to yourself
I said you can't hide on the inside
All the pain you've ever felt
Ransom my heart, but baby don't look back
Cause we got nobody else

We're running with the Shadows of the Night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

You know that sometimes, it feels like
It's all moving way too fast
Use every alibi and words you deny
That love ain't meant to last
You can cry tough baby, it's all right
You can let me down easy, but not tonight

We're running with the Shadows of the Night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

We're running with the Shadows of the Night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

And now the hands of time are standin' still
Midnight angel, won't you say you will

We're running with the Shadows of the Night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end

"Home By The Sea" by Genesis has some very Batman - related lyrics.

Home by the Sea/Second Home by the Sea (Banks/Collins/Rutherford) - 12:14


Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall
Stealing thru the dark of night
Climbing thru a window, stepping to the floor
Checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces, putting them away
Something doesn't feel quite right

Help me someone, let me out of here
Then out of the dark was suddenly heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea

Coming out the woodwork, thru the open door
Pushing from above and below
Shadows but no substance, in the shape of men
Round and down and sideways they go
Adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair
Then as one they sign and they moan

Help us someone, let us out of here
Living here so long undisturbed
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea

Sit down Sit down
Sit down Sit down Sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you

Images of sorrow, pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer longer nights of gloom
Waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life

Help us someone, let us out of here
Cos living here so long undisturbed
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard
Welcome to the Home by the Sea

Sit down Sit down
Sit down Sit down Sit down Sit down
As we relive out lives in what we tell you
Let us relive out lives in what we tell you

Sit down Sit down Sit down
Cos you won't get away
No with us you will stay
For the rest of your days - Sit down
As we relive our lives in what we tell you
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you

Boulevard Of Broken Dreams- Green Day

I walk a lonely road (path of a hero)
The only one that I have ever known (only knows vengance)
Don't know were it goes
But it's only me and I walk alone (loneliness of being a hero)

I walk this empty street (Gotham)
On the boulevard of broken dreams (Gotham decaying)
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone (only one fighting for justice- most are corrupt)

I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone an' I walk a

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me (shadow of Batman)
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind (Bruce Wayne/ Batman)
On the border line of the edge (who is who?)
And where I walk alone

Read between the lines what's
****ed up and everything's all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone

I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone an I walk a

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I walk alone I walk a

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone

Can't believe no one mentioned this yet. Reminds me of Batman everytime I listen to it and was rumored to be linked to Batman Begins.

Tomorrow SR-71

Song reminds me of Terry McGinnis, but could also be used for Bruce Wayne.

Is it any wonder why I'm scared?
If I was a little younger would I care?
Feeling like the walls are growing stronger
I don't know if this cage
Can hold me any longer

You never dreamed you'd have to
Live your life so guarded
Cuz they'll find a way to
Make you feel discarded

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
Feels like my insides are on fire
And I'm looking through
The eyes of someone else

I never thought they'd want me
To go even faster
Never thought I took my foot off the gas
Everybody loves to be in on the pressure
But I know they're all waiting
For the crash

You never dreamed you'd have to
Live your life so guarded
(So guarded)
Cuz they'll find a way to
Make you feel discarded
(Discarded)
So changed, you've become a complication
Can't make it through
Another day's humiliation

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
(Scared of myself)
Feels like my insides are on fire
And I'm looking through
The eyes of someone else

Someone else(x3) Is it any wonder why
The answer keeps me petrified?
Is it any wonder why I'm scared?

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
(Scared of myself)
Feels like my insides are on fire
And I'm looking through
The eyes of someone else

Is it any wonder why I'm scared?
(I'm not afraid of tomorrow)
If I was a little younger would I care?
(I'm only scared of myself)
Feeling like the walls are growing stronger
(Feels like my insides are on fire)
And I'm looking through
The eyes of someone else
Is it any wonder why I'm scared?
someone, someone more.....


- Take the eyes of someone else as the eyes of Batman. Brings up the important question that Bruce and Terry once asked. Is Batman the mask? Or the man behind the mask?

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
Feels like my insides are on fire
And I'm looking through
The eyes of someone else

Boulevard Of Broken Dreams- Green Day

I walk a lonely road (path of a hero)
The only one that I have ever known (only knows vengance)
Don't know were it goes
But it's only me and I walk alone (loneliness of being a hero)

I walk this empty street (Gotham)
On the boulevard of broken dreams (Gotham decaying)
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone (only one fighting for justice- most are corrupt)

I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone an' I walk a

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me (shadow of Batman)
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind (Bruce Wayne/ Batman)
On the border line of the edge (who is who?)
And where I walk alone

Read between the lines what's
****ed up and everything's all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone

I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone an I walk a

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I walk alone I walk a

I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone

Can't believe no one mentioned this yet. Reminds me of Batman everytime I listen to it and was rumored to be linked to Batman Begins.
:up: Yes.Exactly!
This song ALWAYS reminds me of Crime ally and its relation to Batman.

"Just Close Your Eyes" by Waterproof Blonde for the BB theme.

Decieved by my eyes
in all I was told I should see
Opinions not mine
The person they taught me to be
One light in the dark
A vision of someone I knew
Then in the darkness
I saw a voice say I'm you

Inside me a light was turned on
Then I was alive

If you close your eyes
Your life, a naked truth revealed
Dreams you never lived and scars never heal
In the darkness light will take you to the other side
If I've been waiting there you'll see if you just close your eyes

Hearts uninspired
Trapped inside somebody's dream
Too close to the fire
Yet cold and so numb with the pain
The fever has broken
And the river has run to the sea
Washed to the ocean
And saved by your voice inside me

Inside me a light was turned on
then I was alive

If you close your eyes
your life a naked truth revealed
Dreams you never lived and scars never heal
In the darkness light will take you to the other side
If I've been waiting there you'll see if you just close your eyes

Never thought I would be here
So high in the air
this is my unanswered prayer
defined by another
so much wasted time
out of the darkness
each breath that I take will be mine

If you close your eyes
Your life, a naked truth revealed
Dreams you never lived and scars never heal
In the darkness light will take you to the other side
If I've been waiting there you'll see if you just close your eyes

If you just close your eyes

"Heroes And The Villians" by The Beach Boys can relate to several Batman characters.

Heroes & Villians (Wilson/Parks)

I've been in this town so long that back in the city
I've been taken for lost and gone
And unknown for a long long time (Bruce declared dead while he being trained by Ducard)

Fell in love years ago
With an innocent girl
From the Spanish and Indian home
Home of the heroes and villains

Once at night Catillian squared the fight
And she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down (The Joker shooting Barbara)
But she's still dancing in the night
Unafraid of what a dude'll do in a town full of heroes and villains

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Stand or fall I know there
Shall be peace in the valley
And it's all an affair
Of my life with the heroes and villains

My children were raised
You know they suddenly rise
They started slow long ago
Head to toe healthy weathy and wise

I've been in this town so long
So long to the city
I'm fit with the stuff
To ride in the rough
And sunny down snuff I'm alright
By the heroes and

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Heroes and villains
Just see what you've done

Alice In Chains - Down In A Hole

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers
In her tomb...in bloom

Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart I've decorate like a grave
You don't understand who they
Thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now a man
Who won't let himself be

down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, losin control
I'd like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied

Down in a hole and they've put all
The stones in their place
I've eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty
Of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more
of my feelings beneath

down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, losin control
I'd like to fly but my
Wings have been so denied

Bury me softly in this womb
Oh I want to be inside of you
I give this part of me for you
Oh I want to be inside of you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers (Oh I want to be inside of you)
In her tomb...in bloom
Oh I want to be inside...



Down in a hole, losin feelin so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Down in a hole, outta control
I'd like to fly but my
Wings have been so denied

I've never noticed it, but the Michael Jackson song "Beat It" has some very Batman related lyrics.

Beat It

They told him don't you ever come around here
Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it

You better run, you better do what you can
Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man (Rachel warns him not to seek revenge on Chill and Falcone)
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it
Just beat it, beat it

They're out to get you, better leave while you can
Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
So beat it, just beat it

You have to show them that you're really not scared (Ducard's training)
You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare
They'll kick you, then they beat you,
Then they'll tell you it's fair
So beat it, but you wanna be bad

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight

I think "Hey You" by Pink Floyd nicely captures the loneliness, paranoia and isolation that is buried in Bruce Wayne.

Hey You

Hey you,
Out there in the cold,
Getting lonely, getting old,
Can you feel me?
Hey you,
Standing in the aisle,
With itchy feet and fading smile,
Can you feel me?
Hey you,
Don't help them to bury the light.
Don't give in without a fight.
Hey you,
Out there on your own,
Sitting naked by the phone,
Would you touch me?
Hey you,
With your ear against the wall,
Waiting for someone to call out,
Would you touch me?
Hey you,
Would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home.
But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high, as you can see.
No matter how he tried he could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.
Hey you,
Out there on the road,
Always doing what you're told,
Can you help me?
Hey you,
Out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall,
Can you help me?
Hey you,
Don't tell me there's no hope at all.
Together we stand, divided we fall.

Another song that seem to suit batman very well(At least to me) the title all so sounds like a title for a batman comic involving the Joker.

Smile like you mean it by The killers.

Save some face, you know you've only got one
Change your ways while you're young
Boy, one day you'll be a man
Oh girl, he'll help you understand
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Some things slide by so carelessly

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around
Down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did

Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it

Oh no, oh no no no
Oh no, oh no no no

The Noose -- A Perfect Circle

So glad to see you have overcome them.
Completely silent now
With heaven's help
You cast your demons out
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead

Recall the deeds as if
They're all someone else's
Atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn before us all
So glad to see you well

And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead

With your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down [repeated]

Your halo slipping down to choke you now

This is one of the best songs to describe Batman.

Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window

Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they don't give a f**k about you, like I do.

Count the bodies like sheep
Count the bodies like sheep

Counting bodies like sheep

Count the bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go to sleep [x14]
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums [x2]

I’ll be the one to protect you from your enemies and all your demons
I'll be the one to protect you from a will to survive and a voice of reason
I'll be the one to protect you from your enemies and your choices son
They're one in the same, I must isolate you…
Isolate and save you from yourself …

The Rose -- A Perfect Circle

Don't disturb
The beast
The tempermental goat
The snail while he's feeding on
the Rose
Stay frozen, compromising
What I will
I am

Bend around
The wind silently
thrown about
Again I'm treading so
Soft and lightly
Compromising my will
I am

I am
I will
So no longer
Will I
Lay down
Play dead
Play your doe
in the headlights locked down
and terrified
Your deer in the headlights
shot down and horrified when
Push comes to pull comes to shove
Comes to step around this
Self-destructing dance that never
would've ended till I
Rose,
I roared aloud here
I will
I am.

I am
I will
So no longer
Will I
Lay down
Lay dead
Play this
Kneel down
Gun-shy Martyr
Pitiful
I rose, I roared
I will
I am

Powerful song, what I imagine went through Bruce Wayne's mind as he decided to become a Bat.

On knees I freeze
I mean I just choked up
Somehow I slept
I dream, I mean
I dreamt of nothing
Able to breathe
A sweet relief
Now that you're here with me
A northern degree
Dove into me
Now I'm recovering

[Chorus]
I only want you to see
My favorite part of me
And not my ugly side
Not my ugly side

Hook up a C.B. Wave a way
For conversation flow
I'm shoved in your cave, to wage this rage
Don't let me go
A kick and a scream is all that seems
To mean a lot thus far
I won't let you on my stage, my page
You can't know
Yet you have to know

[Chorus]

So calm... and now it's dark
I look for you to light my heart
I'm in between the moon and where you are
I know... I can't be far

this song always reminds of Batman: Year One Gotham(both comic and script) Cops.

THE BADGE-PANTERA

Young and dumb, truth and justice fantasy.
Fresh out of the academy.
Five time loser bust his head, make your day.
Unless you're paid off to look away.
Do you think this corruption will ever stop?
What makes a person wanna be a cop?
Ran a red light, storm the house and bust the guy.
Do you like to see his children cry?
Pick-up a hooker, take her for a little ride.
But get sucked off on the side.
Sworn to serve and protect, forget the killing,
Badge wearing fascist villain.
Pissed in the street, you bust the guy.
Do you like to see his children cry?

The badge means you suck, a child lays there dead.
As you look back, what goes through your head?

Some still call him pig.
Some still call him pig.

Young and tough, truth and justice fantasy.
Fresh out of the academy.
Five time loser, bust his head, make your day.
Unlesss you're paid off then you look away.
He burned a flag, storm the house and bust the guy.
Do you like to see his children cry?
Ran a red light, take her for a little ride,
But get sucked off on the side.

The badge means you suck, a child lays there dead.
As you look back, what goes through your head?

Talk to them, you can work it out.
You better not even try it.
You make a play for his gun.
They'll kill you: say it was a riot. Riot!!!

What's behind the badge?

My Chemical Romance -- "The Ghost of You"

I never said I'd lie and wait forever
If I died, we'd be together
I can't always just forget her
But she could try

At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever ever...
Ever...

Get the feeling that you're never
All alone and I remember now
At the top of my lungs in my arms she dies
She dies

At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me

If I fall
If I fall (down)

At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna...

To me, this reminds me of Batman being haunted by his parents memory.

Linkin Park- Crawling

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real (Chorus)

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling

I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Chorus

Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem...

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Chorus (Repeat until end)

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling (Whispered during chorus)

Gatman and Robbin-50 cent and Eminem

Seriously, they used the 60's Batman beat and everything.....

Song: Gatman and Robbin

[Intro- Eminem & 50 Cent]
Gee wilikers Gatman they got me surrounded
I'm on my way

[Chorus - 50 Cent & Eminem]
I got a gatman
There's a problem I'ma solve it
A ***** movin' around
With a big ass revolver and a black man
What the **** are you retarded
You touch Shady I'll leave you dearly departed
They say Batman

[Verse 1- 50 Cent]
Robin, Cagney or Lacey, it's 50 cent and Shady
The worst baby, put your hands on my people
I'll be act crazy, put a hole thru ya front and ya back maybe
But dude if you try me, I'll have ya ass hooked up to an IV
I'll leave ya witnesses when I ride B
You **** with me, you see
I'll be actin' like an animal, I'll tear you apart
If the masterpiece was murder, I'd major in art
*****s knew I wasn't wrapped too tight from start
But bein' a little off, landed me on top of the charts (whoo)
So you take the good with the bad, I guess
Level three Teflon plate on my chest
And my cock back hollow tip in the chamber
Danger, anger will change ya
And make ya aim that and squeeze

[Chorus 50 Cent & Eminem]
I got a gat man
There's a problem I'ma solve it
A ***** movin' around
With a big ass revolver and a batman

[Verse 2- Eminem]
Motha****a, you retarded you touch 50
I'll leave you dead, leave the party
We're walkin' away from a beef, in which clearly you started
I said we're walkin' away, did you hear me you wanna be thankful
That we ain't beefin' we're still breathin' and just leave it at that
Thats when me, 50, and G-Unit hop back in that bat mobile
It ain't gonna be no more rappin', it's gonna be braaaat [gunshot sound]
Retaliation will be like that Muslim shi'ite attack
Some where along the line, its like me and 50 made a pact
He's got my back, I got his back
It's almost like we're kinda like Siamese twins
Cause when we beef we pull eac hother in
So we'll do **** like we're conjoined at the hip
Its just unavoidable some of this **** is washable
And some **** will never boil up
And some of it will just simmer at best
If left at alone, we'll let it be so there won't be no sit downs
The days that Zino, there will no peace discussions with me
There ain't gon' be no friendly debates over competency
Just quit ****in' with me and I'll gladly quit ****in' with you
This ***** is sixteen and do what you gotta do to get through
When I mentionin' me and the machine to Jimmy Iovine and Dre and 50
D-Twizzie, Obie and just let it be or we'll be back with a

[Chorus - 50 Cent & Eminem]
I got a gatman
There's a problem I'ma solve it
A ***** movin' around
With a big ass revolver and a black man
What the **** are you retarded
You touch Shady I'll leave you dearly departed


[Verse 3 - 50 Cent]
***** you get it twisted, you can get ya wig splitted
I don't give a ****, I don't care if police know I did it
Man I hustle, I get money, in the sunshine or a blizzard
I go hard for that paper, homie I just gotta get it
Got 'em on the screen, I'm plottin' in the county and I'm with it
You cross me and you gon' make a cemetary visit
That's gangsta, you know me I told it, cuz I live it
Showcases drop, when that chopper chop
Way up the block, get hit with copper tops
When drama pop, the llama pop
And it won't stop, you can run, call the cops
They say no, *****'s know how I be on it
That **** you got, put my pistol to you I want it
Its not a game, perfect ai,m you feel the flame
Up against ya brain, man its so hot I'll make ya wish it rained

[Chorus - 50 Cent & Eminem]
I got a gatman
There's a problem I'ma solve it
A ***** movin' around
With a big ass revolver and a black man
What the **** are you retarded
You touch Shady I'll leave you dearly departed

"Away" by Breaking Benjamin

Cold am I
I'm beside myself
Because there's no one else
Have I grown
So blind
Only god could save you
If you knew your way to the light
So fly away
And leave it behind
Just stay awake
There's nowhere to hide

I see you
Cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you
Cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you
Cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you
They're coming to take you away

Frail and dry
I could lose it all
But I cannot recall
It's all wrong
Don't cry
Clear away this hate
And we can start to make it alright
So fly away
And leave it behind
Return someday
With red in your eyes

I see you
Cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you
Cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you
Cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you
They're coming to take you away

I see you
Cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you
Cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you
Cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you
They're coming to take you away


I see you
Cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you
Cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you
Cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you
They're coming to take you away

I see you
Cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you
Cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you
Cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you
They're coming to take you away

Like A Stone -Audioslave

On a cobweb afternoon
in a room full of emptiness
by a freeway i confess
i was lost in the pages
of a book full of death
reading how we'll die alone
and if we're good we'll lay to rest
anywhere we want to go

(chorus)
in your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i'll wait for you there
like a stone i'll wait for you there
alone

on my deathbed i will pray
to the gods and the angels
like a pagan to anyone
who will take me to heaven
to a place i call
i was there so long ago
the sky was bruised
the wine was bled
and there you led me on

in your house i long to be
room by room patiently
i'll wait for you there
like a stone i'll wait for you there
alone

and on i read
until the day was gone
and i sat in regret
of all the things i've done
for all that i've blessed
and all that i've wronged
in dreams until my death
i will wander on



Moody.Has a hint of Batmanesque style in parts. Also the inherent theme of not letting something go.

That's the first song that I thought of.:up:

Helena by my chemical romance.

Long ago
Just like the hearse, you die to get in again
We are...
So far from you

Burning on, just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives
Of everyone you know
And what's the worst to take? (worst you take)
From every heart you break (heart you break)
And like a blade you stain (blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight

[chorus]
What's the worst thing I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Came a time
When every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are
The very hurt you sold
And what’s the worst to take? (worst to take)
From every heart you break (heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight

[chorus]
What's the worst thing I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Can you hear me...
Are you near me?
Can we pretend
To leave and then...
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide!

[chorus]
What's the worst thing I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Well if you carry on this way?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight...

All these things I've done by the killers.

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The cold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
...

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on

I'm waiting for the night to fall
I know that it will save us all
When everything's dark
Keeps us from the stark reality

I'm waiting for the night to fall
When everything is bearable
And there in the still
All that you feel is tranquillity

There is a star in the sky
Guiding my way with its light
And in the glow of the moon
Know my deliverance will come soon

I'm waiting for the night to fall
I know that it will save us all
When everything's dark
Keeps us from the stark reality

I'm waiting for the night to fall
When everything is bearable
And there in the still
All that you feel is tranquillity

There is a sound in the calm
Someone is coming to harm
I press my hands to my ears
It's easier here just to forget fear

And when I squinted
The world seemed rose-tinted
And angels appeared to descend
To my surprise
With half-closed eyes
Things looked even better
Than when they were open

Been waiting for the night to fall
I knew that it would save us all
Now everything's dark
Keeps us from the stark reality

Been waiting for the night to fall
Now everything is bearable
And here in the still
All that you feel is tranquility

Well... Power Symphony's "Way of the Sword" (Although a the pronoun used is "she" throughout), and "The Curse of Every Man"... although if I'm in the right frame of mind everything can be about Batman.
And I for one am shocked that no-one's mentioned Wesley Willis's masterpiece:

I Wupped Batman's Ass:
Batman got on my nerves
He was running me amok
He ridiculed me calling me a bum
I wupped Batman's ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s assss.
Batman thought he was bad
He was a ****ing ******* in the first place
He got knocked to the floor
I wupped Batman's ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass.
Batman beat the hell out of me and knocked me to the floor
I got back up and knocked him to the floor
He was being such a jackoff
I wupped Batman's ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped Batman’s ass, I wupped…. Batman’s ass

Perhaps we can post the lyrics to the songs we post? S**t, I'll do it:

Behind Blue Eyes:

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
Yeah man that's a good one.

Overburdened-DisturbedThank You!!! I didn't think anyone would call that one. But yeah that song reminds me so much or Year Two where Batman has his final confrontation with Joe Chill. That song reminds me of Batman more than any of the other songs here. I also think Disturbed's "Darkness" is a very good 'Batman' song.

Fear of the Dark is by Iron Maiden covered by Cradle of Filth. Speaking of Iron Maiden . . . if you look on the cover of their album Somewhere in time . . . youll notice a certain dark shadowy figure with pointy ears and a scalloped cape standing on a roof top.

Thanks for pointing it out. I don't listen to much metal I doubt I would have seen it anywhere else. Is that not cool as hell? I've also seen a single cover for 22 Accacia Avenue ste in an alley, that same Eddie poster as seen on the right, and in the night sky the moon is very much the same as the cover to Danny Elfman's original Batman score.
I'll definately have to check out cradle's cover. Two more songs of Maiden's that remind of Batman related material are 'Revalations' fits so well with BTAS where it shows Ras' origin. 'The Evil that Men do' is like reading Batman's thought bubbles as he reminices about his dealings with Talia. Actually both songs remind me of the whole Batman, Ras, Talia storyline.

I downloaded Revelations, I can't seem to get the other now. It's a funny song i'll keep it on my playlist cos i reckon it'll grow on me. I can totally see how it reminds you of Ras. Adventuring in deserts with crazy arab ninja clans.

Fear of the Dark - Oddly enough it's the violin bit and ESPECIALLY the BAGPIPES that reminds me of Batman hanging around rooftops. I dunno it's fu*ken weird. The rest is him battling and criminals crying and begging for their lives and hiding in corners. Regardless, it's one of my favorite single songs of all time.



I seem to remember a Nightwing issue, or a scene somewhere with Dick in his apartment and there's a goddamn JARS OF CLAY cd lying around. Seriously. wtf. He does not listen to Jars of Clay.

What would Batman listen to? I thinking only classical music or flamenco guitar.

Yeah man!! I like the violin added to that song. I still prefer Bruce Dickinson's vocals, but yeah that was a very nice touch.

Of course the Elfman theme is top of the list that will always stand out, hold me thrill me by U2, and kiss from a rose too.

Another that im guessing none of you will of heard but Stay in Shadow - Finger Eleven, awesome song, if you havent heard it, i suggest you do.

Who I Am - Smile Empty Soul. That's Batman.

If anyone says that isn't a song about Batman, give you your e-mail and I'll prove it.

That song suits Batman more then Spider-Man(its on the OST) :batman:

Helena by my chemical romance.

Long ago
Just like the hearse, you die to get in again
We are...
So far from you

Burning on, just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives
Of everyone you know
And what's the worst to take? (worst you take)
From every heart you break (heart you break)
And like a blade you stain (blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight

[chorus]
What's the worst thing I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Came a time
When every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are
The very hurt you sold
And what’s the worst to take? (worst to take)
From every heart you break (heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight

[chorus]
What's the worst thing I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Can you hear me...
Are you near me?
Can we pretend
To leave and then...
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide!

[chorus]
What's the worst thing I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight

Well if you carry on this way?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long not goodnight...

All these things I've done by the killers.

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes ain't changing me
The cold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
...

Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on

Shut up fool. I did find the topic interesting, until it got cluttered up with people going beyond what was asked and started quoting WHOLE SONGS. We can look up the lyrics if we're that interested. I'd rather people just stick to the original question so I don't injure my index finger having to scroll through reams and reams of garbage to get to the point...

To you
I'm all I've left undone
I'm all I haven't won
Lift me up my soul's so hollow
Lift me up

You take
The breath you didn't make
What's left you did forsake
Lift me up my soul's so hollow
Lift me up my soul's so hollow

You can make me scream internally
You can make me breathe eternally
Yeah

You see
The things I cannot change
The things that make me plain
Lift me up my soul's so hollow
Lift me up

We've made
All from the sum of none
All that we have become
Lift me up my soul's so hollow
Lift me up my soul's so hollow

You can make me scream internally
You can make me breathe eternally

You can make me scream internally
You can make me breathe eternally
Yeah

Fill, fill what's in me
Fill, fill what's in you
Fill, fill what's in me
So my soul's not left so hollow

You can make me SCREAM
You can make me BREATHE

You can make me scream internally
You can make me breathe eternally

You can make me scream
You can make me breathe
You can make me scream
You can make me breathe, me breathe

Two more songs of Maiden's that remind of Batman related material are 'Revalations' fits so well with BTAS where it shows Ras' origin. 'The Evil that Men do' is like reading Batman's thought bubbles as he reminices about his dealings with Talia. Actually both songs remind me of the whole Batman, Ras, Talia storyline.

guys need to download this song right now, Revelations by Iron Maiden. It's all about Batman questing in the desert in a faraway land and fighting guys with cutlasses.

"She came to me
with a serpent's kiss
as the eye of the sun rose on her lips . . . .
moonlight catches the silver tears I cry.
So we lay in a black embrace
and the city sown an unholy place
and the worst
as I waited for the dawn"

"They're Horses not Unicorns" by Bayside reminds me of the relationship between Joker and Mizz Quinn.

You're pulling out your teeth
And I'm the Novocaine you pump in your cheek.

(Joker's mouth)

That’s why I'm still around,
You've got blood running down your chin.
But you suffered peacefully (suffered peacefully)

(Joker in the plastic surgeon in B89)

She was a termite
Eating away at my roots.
I was just a lost soul
Who needed a home
I was filling a void with you

(Harley Quinn is annoying)

And I can't, can't wait
Till you've see see seen
What death and disgust
Have done to me
And I spent three years wishing
For two things,
that one day you'd break
And I'd get to see
How all the choices you've made
Would drive you insane
I wish we never met

(Insane!)

As angry as I sound
That’s just the way I cover up, the way I feel.
I've been that way for years and years
Slave to broken hearts and sex appeal

(Joker getting pissed at Quinn)

She was a termite
Eating away at my roots.
I was just a lost soul
Who needed a home
I was filling a void with you

(Harley Quinn is annoying)

And I can't, can't wait
Till you've see see seen
What death and disgust
Have done to me
And I spent three years wishing
For two things,
that one day you'd break
And I'd get to see
How all the choices you've made
Would drive you insane
I wish we never met

(I wish I never met you, Harley)

She was a termite
Eating away at my roots.
I was just a lost soul
Who needed a home
I was filling a void with you

And I can't, can't wait
Till you've see see seen
What death and disgust
Have done to me
And I spent three years wishing
For two things,
that one day you'd break
And I'd get to see
How all the choices you've made
Would drive you insane
I wish we never met

Asylum and If Everyone Was Listening from Supertramp's album Crime of the Century

Asylum
Jimmy Cream was keen,
His brain was always winnin',
I cant keep tabs on mine-its really quite a joke.
I see him down the road,
I ask if he'd be willing
to lend me 15p-I'm dieing for a smoke.
DOn't arrange to have me sent to no asylum,
I'm just as sane as anyone,
It's just a game I play for fun-for fun.
I told em-look!-I said I'm not the way your thinkin'.
Just when I'm down I'll be the clown, I'll play the fool.
Please DOn't arrange to have me sent to no asylum,
I'm just as sane as anyone,
It's just a game I play for fun-for fun.
Will he take a sailboat ride?
He is very likely to,
Will he feel good inside?
He ain't very likely to,
Will he tell you he's alive?
He is always trying to,
But nothin', no nothin' does he say
In the morning when the day's begun
-"hello, good morning, how are you?"
And in the evening of a noonday sun
-"What a lovely afternoon!"
Well I've been living next to you.

Bluesy Monday is the one day that they come here,
When they haunt me adn they taunt me in my cage.
I mock them all, they're feelin' small, they got no answer
They're playing dumb but I'm just laughing as they rage
Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum,
I'm just as sane as anyone,
It's just a game I play for fun
I've been foolin' everyone-everyone.
Will he take a sailboat ride?
He is very likely to
Will he feel good inside?
He ain't ever likely to
Will he tell you he's alive?
He is always been tryin' to
But nothin', no nothin' does he ever say
In the morning when the day's begun
-"Do you think it looks like rain"?
ANd in the evening or the noonday sun
-"you know I nearly missed the train"
Well I've been living next to you, my friend
But what kind of friend are you?
Is it the beginning or the sorry end?
Will I ever see it through?
I've never been insane
Oh what's the game?
I believe I'm dieing...
He's mad, mad, mad...
Not quite right...
OOoooooooooooooo.............

If Eveyone Was Listening
The actors and jesters are here
The stage is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain and no-one's quite certain
Whose play it is
How long ago, how long?
If only we had listened then
If we'd know just how right
We were going to be
For we dreamed a lot
And we schemed a lot
And we tried to sing of love before
The stage fell apart

(chorus)
If everyone was listening, you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown to bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall

Well, what is your costume today?
Who are the props in your play?
You're acting apart which you thought
From the start was an honest one
Well, how do you plead?
An actor indeed! Go re-learn your lines
You don't know what you've done
The final is begun:

(chorus)
If everyone was listening, you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown to bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall

You know wjhat song I was listening to today that reminds me of Batman? "Back In Black" by AC/DC. Especially when you think of the DKR Batman, this song is the perfect Batman anthem.

Back in Black

Back in Black
I hit the sack
I been too long
I'm glad to be back
Yes, I'm dead loose
from the noose that's kept me hanging around.
I'm just, uh, livin' on the side 'cause it's gettin' me high,
forget the hearse cause I never die.
I got nine lives, cat's eyes, (this line could also describe Catwoman)
each and evry one of them is wondrin why,
cause I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Mama, I'm Back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back, back.
Well, I'm back in black, yes I'm back in black! Ow!

Back in the thing,
I drive a Cadillac,
mama, one with a bullit,
I'm a power pack.
Yes, I'm in a band,
with a gang,
they've got to catch me if they want me to hang,
cause I'm back on the track and I'm beatin the fox,
nobody's gonna get me on another rap.
So look at me now, I'm just, uh, makin' my bread,
don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way
cause I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back, back.
Well, I'm back in black, yes, I'm back in black.

(solo)

Well, I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back!
Yes, I'm back!
Well, I'm back, back.
Well, I'm back in black, yes, I'm back in black.

(solo)

Well, I'm back, back,
Back, back, back, back,
Back in black, yes, I'm back in black.

(solo & fade)

Yeah, I actually never thought of Batman once when I've listned to Back in Black (Spiderman ever since Spiderman 3 has been on my mind during this song), but Back in Black does fit DKR Batman. The songs about Bon Scott escaping from death. And Batman in DKR always gets away from death.
