Post a toplevel for your character. If you'd like, include songs you already have on their playlist (if you make playlists), or general preferences for genres or lyrical themes if you don't.
Reply to other people with suggestions for music that could fit their character or your CR with them.
Listen. Dance. Cry. Enjoy.

ITN/TNN
General ITN
Yes it IS from the Zelda CD-i games, no I'm not trolling. Somehow it just fits the general mood of the setting to me.
Loreena McKennitt: Marrakesh Night Market
They're gathered in circles
The lamps light their faces
The crescent moon rocks in the sky
The poets of drumming
Keep heartbeats suspended
The smoke swirls up and then it dies
"Would you like my mask?
Would you like my mirror?"
Cries the man in the shadowing hood
"You can look at yourself
You can look at each other
Or you can look at the face of your god"

It Has Begun
Strange Town
Another Way Out

Down In The Park, Foo Fighters cover
Fly Trapped In A Jar, Modest Mouse - I mean:
We had docked in dark so we didn't read what the sign read
Though simple enough, it was demure and tough:
"The ground needs to be fed"
Well, I hadn't noticed but the people really noticed
That they really didn't want us around
So not a single one of us will ever leave town, here we go sir

FOREST SPIRITS
no subject
ok this is just general masked spooky vibe
Freelance Whales - Generator ^ Second Floor
but this one is all about celebrating death (and a life well-lived) rather than mourning it!
Fleet Foxes - The Shrine
idk this is just forest spirit vibes in my head somehow

Tony Trippi: Harlequin Bazaar

Not gonna lie, this is what comes into my head every time I think of them.
Rosinante
I'd love recommendations for more, especially if you know 30s/40s jazz because apparently he loves it now, thanks Invincible jukebox, but I sure don't listen to enough of it myself to find ones that fit him.
Re: Rosinante
And if you want some good period swing jazz... hmm.
Glenn Miller - A String of Pearls def makes Bucky think of Rosi for some reason, Duke Ellington and Ella Fizgerald - It Don't Mean a Thing just for scat lovers, Cab Calloway - Hie De ho Man mostly cuz I personally love this guy a lot, and for making fun of military men The Andrews Sisters - Six Jerks in a Jeep (this song is absolutely Bucky's sense of humor, he thinks it's hilarious).

Duster
Link
Hard Linked (arrangement by Masato Koike, Yuki Matsumura)
Blow Me Away (Breaking Benjamin ft. Valora)
Ievan Polkka (Korpiklaani)
Stamping Ground (Runrig)
Ardyn Izunia
Darker (Assemblage 23) this could also work for ITN/NN if you squint.
Conditioned to Hate (Lotus Juice)

Man of Constant Sorrow (Charm City Devils)

Jason Grace
No real preferences? I don't like limiting people |D
Re: Jason Grace
Jimmy Eat World - Chase This Light -- like I want to list lots of Jimmy Eat World songs because of the musical vibe, but most of them are weirdly bitter lyrically. This is the more hopeful one.
Fitz Kreiner
The Boxer, Simon & Garfunkle - his icon keywords song
Twentieth Century Boy, T-Rex - naturally
Common People, Pulp - embodies his disdain for the bourgeoisie, and also his build is exactly like Jarvis Cocker in this video
I'm always open to suggestions! Music me!
javert
my love took me down to the river to silence me, little green cars
javert, penny & sparrow
javert & javert on the bridge, john murphy
some of my favorites from the musical:
stars, philip quast
the confrontation, alfie boe/michael ball
the robbery & one day more, michael ball
stars & javert's suicide, bradley jaden
all of javert's songs, russell crowe
i admittedly don't have much of a playlist for him (i just listen to the les mis soundtrack on a loop, lbh), so any recommendations would be great!
Re: javert
masaomi kida
His official theme:
Linda Linda covered by Mamoru Miyano, his voice actor
Some choice lyrics:
Therapy by All Time Low
Flaws by Bastille
Bet On It by Zac Efron
