I wanna do a RayEarth video..My first RayEarth video (just the first season), but the only song I can actually find on my worn out(meaning ive listened to everyone and none seem to work) harddrive- is Smile.DK "Future Girls" thought if im not mistaken it's already been done.

So any songs that you might think would go good with the series, im up for anything!!!

Also, I need to find a good fast paced action song to do for a mix video... so any suggestions there ould be highly appreciated.

What I usually do when I need a music idea is I go through all my CD's (Note, I did say CD... not mp3's...) Simply put em in your player and let em go and do other things... Like work on homework, go hunting for torrnets... Read a book... Think of something other than the AMV... Find something tha catches your intrest... write the track down on a sheet of paper and note the CD used... Then keep doing other things... You let your "back burner" work on the creative side of the house and I find that I get those Break Through insparations a whole lot easier.

Most of the time, though, when I do my video's it's because someone threw me a CD and said "En-GUARD!" Where I am then scrambling to find footage that will fit it.

For me it makes a big difference if I actually own the source material that I am using... It makes it feel like my options are more difinitive rather than wide open....

yeah i can understand that, and it's something i have done in the past and would do...if i could.. Unfortunetly due to a very long story i don't own but 2 CD's anymore. All the other ones has..."dassapeared" and only few got ripped to my harddrive before it happend...so im kinda at a lose with that option....haha. thats why ill even take a suggestion of an artist at this point...lol.

Sorry, Don't know that...

Here are some song ideas that arn't quite main stream...

Know Your Enemy (Rage against the Machine)
Scary America (I think it's by the band of the same name... It's punk rock)
Beer! (Real Big Phish (fish?)
Anything by Me-Fist and the Gimmi Gimmie's... They have a lot of good covers...
Cold Play is a little hard to do for an actioin video (But might be doable....)

Sory I usually Challenge myself with odd ball music when creating. It might help...

Oh oh, You don't see a lot of Verve stuff either...
