I'm a little shocked that Queensryche hasn't had a mention.

Harlequin: "Who Wants To Live Forever" by Queen

Theme tunes for characters in my campaign:

Nitro - Human Decker / Samurai. Extremely hyper character with non-stop energy and the patience of a mayfly:
A Little Less Conversation (Little More Action Please) by JXL & Elvis.

K.G. (Human Frog Shaman). Well padded Fixer with quickened Levitate and a natty line in check waistcoasts. Think Baron Harkonnen meets Terry Thomas.
All Stand Together by Paul McCartney and the Frog Chorus (sorry - it's just that Bom-Bom-BOM, ah-a-ah! that fits so well).

OMFWOG a.k.a Often Mistaken For Wrath of God, Troll demolitions expert and general show stopper.
Bombtrack by Rage Against the Machine
or Snap Your Fingers Snap Your Neck by Prong

Any given go gang you care to name:
Moto Psycho by Megadeth

More if I think of them.

Honestly, the only character of mine who has something akin to a theme song is Franklin Frakes, bastard son of Julius Frakes. His would be 'School of Hard Knocks' by POD, which somewhat inspired me while creating the character.

India's theme song is Juliet's Ride the pain. SHe is a an urban mage, voodoo style with a Russian twist. I will list the lyrics and I hope you can gras the character's view on life. It is rather harsh.

Repeat and rewind
I'm not going there this time
If I could make a plan
I wouldn't go there again
Hold it up, let it out
Life won't ever stop it's time
Give it up, fight it out
Leave the white flag behind

Ride the pain into the pleasure
(Pain, pleasure)
Don't stop now with the pressure
(Pleasure, pain)
Can't explain with an answer
(Pain, pleasure)
Ride the pain into the pleasure
(Pleasure, pain)

Catch me if you can
Chase me if you'd like
I don't know about you
But I'm a do or die

I haven't seen or heard enough 'til I've looked under every rock (x3)

Ride the pain into the pleasure
(Pain, pleasure)
Don't stop now with the pressure
(Pleasure, pain)
Can't explain with an answer
(Ride the pain into the pleasure)
Ride the pain into the pleasure
(Ride the pain)

Into the pleasure
You'll find your answer
Into the pleasure
You'll find your answer
Into the pleasure
You'll find your answer
Into the pleasure

I haven't seen or heard enough 'til I've looked under every rock (x3)

Ride the pain into the pleasure
(Pain, pleasure)
Don't stop now with the pressure
(Pleasure, pain)
Can't explain with an answer
(Pain, pleasure)
Ride the pain into the pleasure
(Ride the pain into the pleasure)
Can't explain with an answer
(Ride the pain into the pleasure)
Can't explain with an answer
(Into the pleasure)

I'm sensing an overall theme here.

Janus - Eleven Magician Follower of the Paths - My Charismatic with a nasty habit of throwing over powered fireballs - Darkest Hour/ A thousand Words but One

Oh. I meant to the lyrics you posted. Not the thread, although one might sum it up as fairly uninspiring.

You promised me you'd get better, James.

I'm a little bit sad that nobody has mentioed AC/DC "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" or Motorhead "Born to Raise Hell"

Eh. I at least mentioned AC/DC. Does that count?

James isn't insulting you specifically, Cynic: he's insulting us all, just the way he always does.

It's all because he's a big old Grumpy Gus! Aw, he needs a nap, doesn't him?

EDIT: Read James' post again, and you will see that the "it" in "one might sum it up" refers to the thread as a whole. I hope that's clear.

Just just upset because the theme to his character is "Sunshine and Lollipops."

most of mine end up being something along the line of either Click Click Boom (Saliva) for the SR3 game wolfgar The Pirates who dont do Anything (reliant K or veggie tales version) for one SR4 game wolfgar and "Cherry Lips" (Garbage) for my driver adept Ash

For Al in Extradition, the song was actually the inspiration for the character - Tom Waits "Goin' Out West" from Bone Machine.

For Asp from Kingmaker, Billie Holiday and the Ray Ellis Orchestra's Lady in Satin, the whole album.

Down With the Sickness (Disturbed) for my Sammy

Showing my age, but the best theme song for any of my SR chars has to be Al Stewart's "Running Man."

Before the phone hits the receiver
You're halfway to the door
The voice said 'get out while you can,
There's just ten minutes, nothing more'
Time only for the essentials
Better gather them and run
The false name inside the passport,
The gold bars and the gun
And once again they've come out of the past
And though your mind is cool your heart is beating fast
You've been through it all before
Each time you wish a little more that you could ask

What do you want from me?
What do you need from me?
There's no rest for the running man
Why can't you let him be?'

Sympathy for the Devil and Times on my side, by the Stones.
