need some song reccomendations for an AMV, please help?

Post by otbwavelength » Sat Feb 25, 2006 1:07 am

there is another thread in the "amv suggestions" board, but i felt it was more suited to this board after thinking about it.

i'm trying to make a prince of tennis AMV for a contest.

The problem is, i cannot seem to find a *single* song that fits this anime well!

Every song I find with remotely decent lyrics to fit the series in the way I want is either:

-super super slow and sad
-super heavy metal
-extremely too long (8 minutes plus)
-extremely too short (1 minute at max)

I've looked through my entire mp3 collection of over 6,000+ songs, and i really have no idea what to do here because i can't find a song that fits what i'm looking for! ><

the theme i'm trying to do is;

basically show ryoma's growth, show him start out as he is at the beginning of the series, show him go through his matches and grow as a person, show the climatic moments of the series, and show scenes of him growing as a PERSON outside of tennis inbetween matches.

lyrics would hopefully have something to do with growing, maturing, but also if possible agression, dominance, confidence, an overall "i'm going to beat you/i'm going to attack you" nature, agressive nature to the music and lyrics themselves.

Some people suggested "butterflies and hurricanes" by "muse"; this had very good lyrics, but the actual "tone" of the song and the rhythms didn't fit said lyrics.

however, I would definitely be interested in doing an instrumental Prince of Tennis AMV. So, here's my question basically:

Do any of you have any songs you could reccomend that would fit in with ANY of these themes (meaning it can have as many or as little as possible, but at least one):

- agression
- playing a game
- fighting
- maturing
- growing up
- changing
- evolving
- respect to others
- winning a game (or just winning anything)
- defeat
- supporting others
- being dominant
- being "chosen"
- being "the best"

etc.

genre of music doesn't matter, but i'm PREFERRING:

- rock (30 seconds to mars, feeder, avenged sevenfold)
- instrumental (mogwai, moby, muse)
- classical
- alternative (incubus, sugar ray, 311)

etc. however ANY genre of music, ANY band, even rap or such, that you can find that has good lyrics that have ANY of the qualities above, i'd really appreciate if you'd let me know.

thanks in advance guys, i'm losing my mind here >< also whoever gets me the song I use i'll mention and credit on the a-m-v.org page of my AMV when i submit it to the site.
