Lisbeth Salander

*

I don’t remember
Did something in my past create a hole?
Don’t use your gender
To drive a stake right through my soul

I live to function
On my own is all I know
No friends to mention
No distraction, nowhere to go

Shallow, shallow
Give it to me, give it to me
Scissors cutting out your anger
Shallow, shallow
No good to me, not if you bleed
Bite your tongue, ignore the splinter

This city drains me
Well maybe it’s the smell of gasoline
The millions pain me
It’s easier to talk to my PC

    You guys have got to hear this: I just found an original Lisbeth Salander-song – with Salander-lyrics and all!

    http://www.icompositions.com/music/song.php?sid=131448#

    “1- Let me tell you the story
    of Lisbeth Salander,
    You might have heard of her , everywhere
    in the newspapers.
    Don’t believe when they tell,
    she’s a dangerous psychopat
    The ones whom tell their truth
    Are the real murderers.”

    - and more lyrics @ the above URL.

    Okay, it’s probably not gonna break any sales records but you gotta give the artist kudos for trying …! :-)

    Hi there,

    It’s a great idea to see what fans would like to include in Lisbeth’s soundtrack.
    On the other hand it’s hard to pick only 3 songs… lots keep popping up in my mind for different reasons. So I’ ll give 3 for now:

    1. ‘Hypocrite’ by Asian Dub Foundation. This song for me describes what Lisbeth and Plague and the rest of her net pals think of the society. Plus it reminds me of what Lisbeth did with the Wennerstrom finance.. ;)
    Lyrics quote:
    ‘Hypocrites, we’re gonna get inside your mind
    Hypocrites, you will pay for your crimes
    Hypocrites, we’re gonna bleed you dry
    And your pockets wiil be empty but you won’t know why’
    Link to the song: Couldn’t find any video… I ‘ll look better and get back.

    2. ‘Take me back’ by BabyBird. This is a song that Lisbeth would say to her mother… about how she would like to take back all the suffering that the lived at the hands of Salachenko.
    Lyrics quote:
    ‘I would have stabbed him (who would have stopped me?)
    I would have stabbed him (you would have stopped me)’
    Link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUhbhRenOLc

    3. ‘Well I wonder’ by The Smiths. The Smiths have the general energy and rebellious attitude of Lisbeth and there is a verse on this song that would fit like a glove on how her father and brother thought that they killed her, but she never gave up. :D
    Lyrics quote:
    ‘Gasping – but somehow still alive
    This is the fierce last stand of all I am
    Gasping – dying – but somehow still alive
    This is the final stand of all I am’
    Link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXZUEx9M188

    Hope you like them and find them fitting as soundtracks!!!
    Take Care,
    Alien.

      I already like them very much, and I’m really grateful that you chose some songs, which relate to some of the scenes that we haven’t really dealt with yet on this page of sally’s. After all, there are so many to choose from! I’ll get back to the songs above later (just home from another nightwatch so I’m pretty busted), but I’ll put them on the playlist immediately!

    • Chris says:

      I like “Take me back” best, since there are some really neat song lines here, very fitting for the particular scene. How about: “I’m so angry, she’s not angry” – I’m sure many children, who grew up with fathers who kept abusing their mother, have felt like that. Especially if their mum just stayed around instead of either fighting back or running away.

      Anyway, they are all nice songs and I think we are rapidly closing in on the date where I have enough material for it to make sense to make a poll-page. Also I’d like to use some of the song suggestions on other pages, e.g. a ‘best moments of Millennium’-page or some such.
