"If I Only Had a Brain" - I think of Victoria Winters
"If I Only Had a Heart" - I think of Angelique
"If I Only Had the Nerve" - I think of Willie Loomis

Hm... "Where Your Eyes Don't Go" (by TMBG, again) reminds me of the Dream Curse storyline.

Did a large procession wave their torches as my head fell in the basket,
And was everybody dancing on the casket?

AWW good one bluefielder I absolutely adore that one.

BLOODLETTING by Concrete Blonde reminds me of DS because they played it during some of the promotion for the 1991 DS.

Someone already mentioned "Love Song for a Vampire" by Annie Lennox, but I just want to add it here too because it's perfect for Barnabas' story. Another song that reminds me a lot of Barnabas and Josette is "Even in Death" by Evanescence.

I know there are a lot more, because it's gotten to the point where I look for possible DS-related meanings in songs now. [nerd]

The song American Dream by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band always reminded me of DS when I was a teen. I even live in Augusta Georgia.

Here's how it starts,

I beg your pardon, mama, what did you say?
My mind was drifting off on Martinique bay.
It's not that I'm not interested, you see;
Augusta, Georgia is just no place to be.
May you die before you want too.

Hey Magnus! us old guys not only like DS, but we like Elton John! Was thinking of an old EJ song "Have mercy on the criminal" It was scored By Paul Buckmaster and has that old movie feel to it. I guess it would be the first verse that reminds me of DS.
                          " Have you heard the dogs at night
                             Somewhere on the hill
                             chasing some old criminal
                             and I guess there out to kill.
                             Oh there must be shackles around his feet
                              and mother in his eyes.
                             Stumbling through the devil dark
                             with hound pack in full cry"
                             (I feel like Bernie Taupin)

And another Elton John song, Funeral for a Friend:

     The roses in the window box
     Have tilted to one side.
     Everything about this house
     Was born to grow and die.

I find the songs Teardrop by Massive Attack and Worry About You by Ivy reminiscent of DS (the latter more than the former) - strange, considering the fact that they're themes for other TV series.

Very cool, BC1958 and Gerard... I got thinking about Danny Bailey, then was reminded of one of the more recent greats from Eltonbernie, from 2001.

DARK DIAMOND

Oh, I'm a dark diamond
I've turned hard and cold
Once was a jewel with fire in my soul
There's two sides of a mirror
One I couldn't break through
Stayed trapped on the inside, wound up losing you

Tell me how does it work
How do you make things fit
Spent all my life trying to get it right
I've put it together and it falls apart
I thought to myself I might understand
But when the wall's built
And the heart hardens
You get a dark diamond
Dark diamond

Oh, I'm a dark diamond
But you're something else
You read me more than I read myself
The one star I could count on
Only comet I could trust
You burnt through my life to the true meaning of love
