Top Ten Tuesday meme is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s topic is all about music & books. So I decided to do ‘Top Ten Perfect Book-Song Pairings’. Some songs are straight from movie or musical adaptations… no it’s not cheating.
- All Along the Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix & Watchmen by Alan Moore
- Gods and Monsters by Lana del Ray and Dreams of Gods and Monsters by Laini Taylor
- Pet Semetary by The Ramones and Pet Semetary by Stephen King
- 1984 by David Bowie and 1984 by George Orwell
- Into the Dark by Melissa Etheridge & Shatter Me (and Unravel Me and Ignite Me) by Tahereh Mafi
- Belle by Garou & The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (Notre-Dame de Paris) by Victor Hugo
- Burn by Ellie Goulding & We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
- Don’t Stand So Close to Me by Police & Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
-
If I Die Young by The Band Perry & The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
- Sweet Spring by Tin Hat & Anna Karenina by Lev Tolstoy
Top Ten… I could go on forever…
Happy TTT! What are your favorite book & song pairings? What’s your Top Ten Tuesday music thing?
I love how you’ve paired songs and books. I love Burn for We Were Liars!
Thank you! It was so sad book! o.O
Great list!
Thank you! :)

Awesome list; was very refreshing to see someone take on the “book and song – pairing” variant of this week’s TTT. I absolutely love the idea of Burn, along with We Were Liars. That fits so well! :)
Here’s my attempt at this week’s TTT topic – I kind of took the easier option with songs I would like to see as books; kudos to you for tackling the harder of the two in my opinion!

Thank you! I was hmm dying to do this! :D No I think yours is much harder, I couldn’t have done that so I did this. Coming up with songs that would make great novels seems hard because novels should be lengthier ?
Great list!
Thank you! :)
Great Top Ten! You have a lot of good song choices on here. My favorite would have to be Gods and Monsters by Lana Del Rey. :)
My TTT! :)
Vampire Academy Series Review.
Thank you! :) Lana del Ray is so talented! Wanted to include several of her songs but hey that’s not a fair way to do a list XD
Yeah I found it hard to not just pick one artist, but I got though it! :D
If I Die Young, oh, yes please! Great choices!!

Hehe! I love your pairing of the Police with Lolita! You could then go on to listen to Every Breath You Take, I’ll Be Watching You… ;)
:D Oh I love that song as well! Though I must avoid youtube and listening to that song…steals all my time hahaha
