yes. when i was reading it though i was listening to jack's mannequin and "wishes" by superchick, which for me fitted along the storyline as well. basically any soft rock or alternative rock music was going through my mind while reading the novel.

[Fallen into Twilight]

Yes, I've listened to 'Time Is Running Out' by Muse, the two Linkin Park songs and 'I'm Not Okay I Promise' by My Chemical Romance. I must admit though I really can't find the connection between 'I'm Not Okay I Promise' and Twilight...

"I must admit though I really can't find the connection between 'I'm Not Okay I Promise' and Twilight..."

It's because Edward's a freak! (ha ha!)
He's not okay!

[Black Angel]

I still think Weapon by Matthew Good Band fits perfectly. Maybe for the "what if's" that the book sets.

lol Alright I take back what I said it does relate to it just not in the way 'Time Is Running Out' does. Which is a great song by the way!

anything by billy talent, a bit of smashing pumkins,a Bit of The Used, and Straylight run...that kind of thing...do any of you even KNOW who those bands are? If you haven't heard their stuff check them out, they are amzing!

when i was reading i was thinking about the song by Mudvayne from the saw 2 soundtrack here is a little bit of it
What have I done?
Where have I come from?
When I burnt the backs with the sun through a glass did I seal the loss that's become me?

Feeling undone
What have I become?
When I turned my back on you I turned my back on myself and became this machine
doesn't it sound like edward and that is just the begining of song it sounds like when edward has hardly any control over his instincts and didn't stephenie meyer say he liked rockbands? well there you go * *

[dorky_1d1ot]

"forget to remember" by mudvayne?
that song does kind of sound like edward.

I've only listened to one or two of Stephenie Meyer's suggested playlist but the songs "Head Over Feet" and "Knees of My Bees" both by Alanis Morisette may explain Edward and Bella's relationship. The songs and lyrics are wonderful.
