    Ok let’s crowdsource this shit. I know there’s some #discworld nerds on here.

    I want to make a playlist where I have one song for each book in the series. Eg Thief of Time is obviously Clocks by Coldplay, Pyramids is Walk Like An Egyptian, Small Gods is Losing My Religion. Songs should be bangers and also thematically appropriate. (I have a list for a lot of them, I’ll post it after this has had a chance to make the rounds.)

    Aaaaand: go. Mastodon do your thing.

    @swachter just a thought but since Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic were still a bit chaotic and unformed, maybe Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot from Caramba? Either that or something suitably psychedelic from Pink Floyd. 😁

      @cascheranno @swachter Night Watch felt more like "Before You Disperse" by Louis Barabbas to me, or maybe "Freedom is a Verb" by Daniel Kahn.

                  @swachter All books from the Witches Series should be accompanied by songs from female artists, obviously 😉
                  eG Alanis Morissette and Kate Bush ghosted through my mind when reading those back in the days. Sorry but I don't have more specific titles in mind rn.

                      @swachter You'll never walk alone, for Unseen Academicals. (Don't see enough football to know which version is favoured by Liverpool fans.)

                        @matildazq YES EXACTLY

                        (In all seriousness I was struggling with the Tiffany Aching run, EXCELLENT way to kick things off)

                        (Also Chumbawamba is my special interest it’s fine I’m fine)

                        @swachter @matildazq I'd suggest "Pleasant and Delightful" by The Longest Johns for "I Shall Wear Midnight".

                              @swachter Wicked Game by Chris Isaak for Thud (that's obvious, I suppose), and Shout by Tears for Fears for Carpe Jugulum. Basically, because poor Agnes really needed that. #DiscWorld

                                    @cascheranno @swachter as above, I also only recently realised the band is Chumbawamba, and not (as we'd been saying since school) Chumbawumba 😱

                                      A: holy hell. TIL it is Chumbawamba not Chumbawumba.

                                      And B: why TF does autocorrect meddle wrongly for so many ambiguities, but Not This!?

                                        @swachter Reaper man is obviously Don't Fear the Reaper, but what should Mort be 🤔

                                        @fay @swachter Well, Don't Fear The Reaper *is* the heraldic motto Mort takes after the events in his book.

                                          Ok let’s crowdsource this shit. I know there’s some #discworld nerds on here.

                                          I want to make a playlist where I have one song for each book in the series. Eg Thief of Time is obviously Clocks by Coldplay, Pyramids is Walk Like An Egyptian, Small Gods is Losing My Religion. Songs should be bangers and also thematically appropriate. (I have a list for a lot of them, I’ll post it after this has had a chance to make the rounds.)

                                          Aaaaand: go. Mastodon do your thing.

                                          @swachter Sod Coldplay. Pink Floyd: Time

                                          Although Sir Pterry was fond of They Might Be Giants, so "Older" could applicable.
