We've already discussed the juicy goodness that is the actual Twilight soundtrack. However, as that one is selling like crazy I think it's high time we use the power of our imaginations to crank out another version. Please enjoy the 14 songs that came to mind as I pondered the Twilight universe. "The First Day of My Life" -- Bright Eyes
Why: From Bella to Edward. The imagery and lyrics are fantastic. In many ways both of them are born anew the instant they lay eyes on each other.
"Electric Feel" -- MGMT
Why: This song would rule for the first time Edward sees Bella. Plus the movie 21 wasted MGMT.
"Do The Panic" -- Phantom Planet
Why: I think this is an appropriate sentiment once you find out the guy you're all about is a vampire.
"Burning" -- Whitest Boy Alive
Why: The band is called "The Whitest Boy Alive"!! C'mon, that's Edward. This song would play perfectly with the Forks scenery.
"I'm Only Happy When it Rains" -- Garbage
Why: My song for Rosalie.
"Common People" -- Pulp
Why: My song for the Cullens, the vampires who want to live among the people.
"Fake Empire" -- The National
Why: When I saw the beautiful Cullen house in the movie I couldn't help but think of this song. This brilliant and beautiful family has everything ... and yet, they all live a lie.
"Drive" -- The Cars
Why: Edward saves Bella in his car, and he also drives around like a crazy person. So I figure we should have some sort of automotive song in here. Plus it has that nice obsessive quality that the Edward and Bella often emote. "Bizarre Love Triangle" -- Frente (cover)
Why: C'mon, doesn't "Bizarre Love Triangle" pretty much sum up the whole Bella / Edward / Jacob dynamic? "Tranquilize" -- The Killers
Why: A band called "The Killers" definitely belongs in a movie about vampire love. I would dedicate this to Victoria and Laurent, the lethal baddies left for the sequel. "Winter" -- Tori Amos
Why: This song captures the relationship between Edward and Bella perfectly. He's cold, like winter, but he also wants Bella to be completely safe and warm. "Seven Nation Army" -- White Stripes
Why: This is an absolute theme song for James. "A Beautiful Mess" -- Jason Mraz
Why: My new prom theme for Bella and Edward. "Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" -- Smashing Pumpkins
Why: My new alternate version of Bella's lullaby. So that's it. That's the deal. I've figured out a way to add two more songs in than the original soundtrack, though I'm upset I couldn't quite work the band Vampire Weekend in. Maybe next time. Other songs considered: More interviews, articles, and photos in our Ten Days of Twilight extravaganza!
