Put a Tune To it: Western Songs for Anime: The Last Round

Hey guys. A few months ago I decided to toss my hat into the ring of starting one of those infamous tagging themes. The result was Put a Tune to it which to my surprise took off far better than I expected.

First off, I want to thank everyone who took part, and I hope you all had fun. I’ve been thinking about what is going to follow up, and while I have my idea. I wanted to take one more shot at this theme before we move on. I’ve got a handful of other songs that I think fit anime or anime characters, so let’s get into it after the cut.

In case you forgot the rules.

  • Choose any number of western songs (any genre) that you think best sums up an anime or manga of any type or genre.
    • If you want to pick more than 1 from each section that’s fine. Or if you can’t think of one for a specific category that’s fine also.
  • Explain why you think your choices could work. Is it the lyrics? The tune and the beat? Or just the music video?
  • Link back to the original post so I can read people’s suggestions, I’d love to read everyone’s ideas.
  • Include Put a Tune to It in your tags so everyone including myself can find them all easily.Image result for anime singer

Put a Tune to It: Western Songs for Anime

Hey guys.

These have gone around before, but I thought, for shits and giggles I would try my own.

We’ve all grown up with the anime music video, and probably at least watched one shonen anime with a Linkin Park song horrible edited on top of it. That still doesn’t mean however there aren’t some great western tunes that can go well with an anime or anime character! So here is my list of a few songs that might go well with a certain genre or character, and I’m going to tag a few fellow bloggers and see if we can get this going!
