So after the release of the "Take me home, country roads" trailer featuring the John Denver song they have really stepped up the quality of this film, and I hope the song features in the actual movie. A good well known song that emotes to the film can make such a difference to how the viewer perceives and remembers the film. It adds another dimension and layer to the experience.

Think of Guns n' Roses "you could be mine" in T2, or Little Richards "Long tall sally" in Predator as excellent Sci-fi examples. Classic memorable films that portrayed the era of those films.

The perspective "Take me home" gives to the film is a feeling of melancholy, nostalgia (wheat fields) and homesickness. It is also builds on Ridley Scotts Truckers-in-space feel he was trying to portray in the original Alien, with the country vibe of the song.

What other songs do you all think would suit this film, and would like see featured in the movie???

Here are my top 4. I've tried to stick with classic bluesy/country/rock song.

 

1. If I ever leave this world alive - Flogging Molly (how fitting)

2. Walk all over you - AC/DC ( Aussie Rock m/ )

3. Rock n Roll - Led Zeppelin

4. Electric Worry - Clutch

All of you have great ideas for music relevant to ALIENverse aspects!! I'm still arguing with my brain as it's 'stuck' on the opening cred score still...

BUT I'd like to throw in...

DK - As a funny little aside, I took German as a second language during grade school and finishing school. It is a very fun language! :)

BWW- I always forget about the Zombie! I think this one could work in the Alienverse pretty well:

How can we forget this classic since we are talking NIN and techno in general? This could also fit with David's despise for humanity. Lyrically it is a slam dunk for David.

Something Real Check the lyrics to Beautiful People. To me, it fits perfectly with David 8.

Ty for saying what you did about my contributory posts! Zombie, man, he has SUCH great 'dark' music, that's also 'fun' here and there, like Dragula, as example! He's probably got music that'll fit almost any genre and topic! :)

And yea Superbeast...man that SO fits!!

BLACKWINTER-WITCH - Superbeast would likely be best if utilized in Cameron's Aliens. It is a very driving, "action-minded" song. :)

Ah! Okay, so with a musical background I guess you're the, or one of, our resident experts on ALIENverse-appropriate tunes. :)

Very cool that you were in a band!!

Good point on what Kind of ALIENverse movie it would properly 'fit', yeah, it'd have to be an 'action-y' movie, at least partially-so to support the tune.
