Ok, so this is just a game where you can post songs that you think fit characters, scenes, or anything related to the books!

I'll start:

Hozier-Take Me to Church: Elend joining the Church of the Survivor 

Rise Against-Prayer of the Refugee: This one just reminds me of the First Mistborn book

3 Doors Down-Citizen/Soldier: I feel this is Kelsier's theme song

Posted

Duel of the Fates plays in my head when I read the fight at the end of Words of Radiance.

Defying Gravity for Kaladin, and Secrets seems like Shallan's ideal ending. And you barely even have to change Fixer-Upper for it to be a shipping song for them.

Skyfall, during the climax of Words of Radiance. I mean, it's practically perfect for it!

 

"This is the end"
"Hold your breath"
"Count to ten"

Heck, it even doubles as a villain themes! "Drowned and dreamt this moment" can work as a reference to Kaladin's 'vision' from Way of Kings, and to Eshonai's Odium-induced villainy, as can "Overdue I owe them" (Owing Dalinar vs "Owing" the Alethi for killing her kin).

The chorus of All Around Me by Flyleaf for the scene where Vin is fueling Elend's allomancy. The full song for them as a couple.

Centuries by Fall Out Boy for Kell and his crew.

The Music of the Night for Kelsier

New Divide by linkin Park for the Szeth/Kaladin fight scene

Viva la Vida by Coldplay for Elend

Monster by Skillet or Animal I Have Become by Three Days Grace for Marsh

Believe by Staind for Sazed

OMG listening to this and thing of Vin and Elend... it made me cry. The pain will never fade....

Oh and Clint Mansells Lux Aeterna from Requiem for a dream during Vins fight scenes for me.

Am I not Human? by Two Steps from Hell for Sixth. 

Centuries by Fall Out Boy for Kelsier.

Iron by Woodkid for Dalinar.

The Theme from The Great Escape for Kaladin.

Fight for Your Right by Beastie Boys for Adolin.

Everything at Once by Lenka for Hoid.

Take Me to Church by Hozier for Jasnah (I think she fits it better than Ellend).

I Can't Take My Eyes off of You for Adolin and Shallan together.

Soul Wars by Awolnation for Vin. 

 

Edit: Keep Believing by Ryan Shupe and the Rubber Band for Sazed

I feel that the lyrics to the song Take me to Church fit Elend better because

WOA spoiler

he is married to the goddess of the church he belongs to

The chorus to "Counting the Days" by Collective Soul reminds me of Kaladin when he's a slave/bridgeman.

Also by CS, "Precious Declaration" for Kaladin, again, and "Listen" for Dalinar.

Maybe I'm reaching, but those songs remind me of those characters, so... yeah.

Take Me to Church for Elend joining the Church? Doesn't really seem to fit. 
 
Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies/I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife/Offer me that deathless death/Good God, let me give you my life
 
Seems a bit too dark.
 
Jasnah: Frank Turner - Glory Hallelujah  :P

 

Dalinar: Two Steps From Hell: United We Stand, Divided We Fall

 

WoR spoiler, kind of:

Szeth in Stones Unhallowed: Two Steps From Hell - Black Blade

I sort of used a different intrepretation than the artist obviously meant (literal rather than metaphorical).

I guess that works if you go with the title.

And the fact that he (sort of) literally worships her. If you take it in the metaphorical sense (the way the singer/songwriter meant adults to interpret it) it also could work for their relationship. I mean come on, they are married after all.  ;)
