Waffles and Pancakes

[Gancho Libre he/him]

Ok, I don't know if this is in the right forum (If it's not you can move it) but I have a question to ask.

I am developing a diverse anthology of music (it will be called Waffles and Pancakes) that will be awesome.

Well, I can't take it all from my favorites because all of my favorite songs are movie soundtracks written by Hans Zimmer and The Greatest Showman songs.

Anyway, I would like to ask that you post a song that isn't necessarily your favorite, (as that can change with time), but a song you know will always be one of your favorites no matter how old it is or how many times you listen to it. I would prefer upbeat songs, but anything is fine.

If you list more than one, keep in mind not all of them will be used (I'm asking all over the place). I regret to inform you that I, in order to fit in the greatest amount of variety, can only take one song per person. I will still strongly suggest posting more but try to make it certain which one is your favorite of them all. 

Then, once it's all arranged, I'll post the arranged 'Waffles and Pancakes' it here for anybody who wants it.

(let's not have songs with inappropriate themes or excessive swearing, please!)

Thank you! (This is available till the last day of June)

The Greatest Showman songs.

I’m glad you have good taste in music

[King Cole he/him]

Believer is a must

Hooked on a Feeling has been one of my favorite songs for as long as I can remember

[Modal Seoul he/him]

Here are three:

You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oates

Tears in the Rain by Vangelis

Yellow Submarine by the Beatles

[Kidpen he/him]

Doctor Horrible soundtrack.

[Zelly]

Ugh...so many songs....can't....

One Day More from Les Miserables

Waka Waka by Shakira

Passion by Utada Hikaru

 

[Rebecca she/her]

Well, you can never go wrong with 80s. Some of my favorites are:

- Don’t stop believing

- Kama Chameleon

- Heaven is a place on Earth

- Sweet Dreams

- Blue Monday

- We built this city

- Africa

- Livin on a prayer

- Friday I’m in love

- The promise

And a ton more. These are just a few. Greatest Showman music is also amazing. And then of course The Misty Mountains in The Hobbit.

[Caesura she/her]

This is a great idea! Here's a few:

 - The album Forget and Not Slow Down by Relient K. Ideally listened to in order, the songs transition into each other really nicely

 - The album Torches by Foster the People

 - Curl Up and Die by Relient K (nowhere near as depressing as the name makes it sound)

 - Map of the Problematique and Sunburn by Muse, among others. Most of their stuff is pretty good

[Gancho Libre he/him]

thank you, everyone!

I'ma touch up on the rules, but these are all great!

For those of you who have listed a lot, could you say which ones from that list you would prefer more than others? That makes my job easier.

I only have a couple songs posted, and I'll add more as I listen to them.

[Jehoiada he/him]

Seize the day-newsies soundtrack 

 

[Ink he/him]

Well, from the Doctor Horrible soundtrack, my freeze ray is the best I think. But all of them are great. Also, yes to Undertale music, but there are a lot of those.

Doctor Horrible soundtrack.

YOU WATCH DR HORRIBLE TOO!?!?  

[Archer he/him]

Funny story about Seagulls! When it came out I binge listened to it for weeks, then totally forgot about it. Then out of the blue one day it came up on a playlist and my brain was like 'I got this'. Sang the whole thing right up until the log interlude. *high-fives memory I never knew I had*

+1 to Hooked on a Feeling 

I'd mention a Hamilton one, but it's explicit. 

So my actual suggestions: if you're fine with more than one Bon Jovi on the list, Because we can and thick as thieves are good. 

And keeping with the classic music theme (because modern music just isn't the same) ELO's Mr Blue Sky and The Clash's London Calling are fabulous

Yes! That'd be great.

I will kill your friends and family....to remind you of my love. 

[MacThorstenson he/him]

Let me tell you something. I have assembled a decent playlist of some meme songs that me and my friends considered memes. This list is limited, but could help, I would suggest pruning it for what you want.

They are in no particular order.

Spoiler

 

[Zath he/him]

Practically any song by Relient K.  ...But if I have to choose just one... Hmmm...

"Getting Into You" from the Relient K album, two lefts don't make a right ...but three do. 
It's not exactly upbeat, though, so if you want one with a bit more vigor and vim:

"The Lining is Silver" from the Relient K album, The Birds and the Bee Sides.

Though, honestly, if you're naming the anthology "Waffles and Pancakes", I think this song would fit best:
"Cat" from the Relient K album, Air For Free.  
Such a fun song.

...I totally failed at the "one song per person" thing, didn't I?

That's pretty nice. You got all the ones I would think of at least.

[Toaster Retribution he/him]

I Will Wait by swedish artist ISA is probably my favorite song ever.

Other good ones are: 

-Oathpact Abandoned from the Kaladin album.

-Good Lovin with Benjamin Ingrosso

-Thats How You Write A Song by Alexander Rybak

Special one for you: if you want to go wierd and have upbeat music in swedish (which you probably don’t want, but I’ll suggest it anyway) you can go with När ingen ser by Axel Schylström. 

[Caesura she/her]

I'm terrible at picking favourites, especially when it comes to music. But I'll go with Curl Up and Die by Relient K.

Alternatively, that choice can change if you want something more upbeat, or something not by Relient K, seeing as @Zath seems to have that covered.

Sticking with that theme though, check out their songs Crayons Can Melt on Us for All I Care and Silly Shoes. Not necessarily for the playlist, they're just good for a laugh.

[Gancho Libre he/him]

Caesura You can choose the song you want However, it is already there, so if you want you can choose something else

Mac for you I chose all star, if you want to change that just let me know
