I wasn’t actually tagged for the Evermore Book Tag, but I saw it over at my friend Stephanie’s blog Adventures of a Bibliophile and felt like it would be fun to do. In all honesty, I always vibed more with evermore than with folklore, so, coming up with books to fit song titles should be fun!
It’s time for another Top Ten Tuesday post, which is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish, if you want to know more about it, you can just click on the name! Here’s what she had in mind:
It sounds like a really cool idea and I always love to share some of my favourite songs! I am not sure how exactly to explain why I would want them to be books. The lyrics or maybe the music video were probably the reason, I’ll just leave it at that for now.
I Found by Amber Run
Falling for your kidnapper? Classic story! There’s another music video that continues the story, but it leaves on a cliffhanger and I would love to know what comes afterwards!
Nature Boy by AURORA
AURORA’s voice is magical! It makes everything sound enchanted and surreal and I know that she only covers the song, but it makes me that much more intrigued about the story from the lyrics.
Bloodsport by Raleigh Ritchie
I don’t really know how to explain this. I could see a story about a poisonous relationship though.
Magnets by Disclosure feat. Lorde
This would be such a good revenge story! Put some more background info on all the characters in it and voila – new book!
From Eden by Hozier
You’ve just watched the video, right? I apparently seem to have a knack for people who connect to their abductors.
Wildest Dreams by Taylor Swift
TayTay always has really great music videos and this one seem cool, set in old-fashioned Hollywood-ish times. Love between colleagues, regret and longing – I am totally in!
The Stranger by Lord Huron
A stranger appearing in someone’s life. Do they know each other? Suddenly they are both in danger and need to trust each other to get out of the mess.
Katie Queen of Tennesee by The Apache Relay
A tale of unrequited love – who is this Katie person? Is the guy really in love with her or only with the idea of her?
Let It All Go by BIRDY + RHODES
I imagine a heartbreaking love story, but it’s set in some sort of fantastical realm. Definitely not just a normal contemporary, yet something that pulls on your heartstrings like crazy!
Half Light by BANNERS
People drifting apart from each other, one of them is changing and the other one doesn’t understand what’s happening. They aren’t realising the full potential of who they could be.
My explanations aren’t the most detailed, so if you want to discuss bookish ideas, I’d love to do that in the comments. What are some songs you would like to see extended in form of a book? Did you know/like/dislike some of my examples? Don’t hesitate to share a link to your TTT below!
