I haven't done a tag in AGES! I'm so excited to be doing this tag. I've wanted to do it ever since I saw it over at The Left-Handed Book Lover! I love books AND music so this is perfect. The tag was originally started by Little Red Reader on YouTube.
How to play: Put your music on shuffle and pick a book for each song that comes on. I'm assuming you can pick as many songs as you want, but I just did five.

1. Californication By: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Lyrics:
Space may be the final frontier
But it's made in a Hollywood basement
Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singing songs off station to station
And Alderaan's not far away
It's Californication
Even though I haven't read this book yet, the "Cobain" part in the song made me think of this one.
2. Landslide By: Fleetwood Mac
Lyrics:
I took my love, took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
'Till the landslide brought me down
This song makes me think of life changes and growing older which instantly made me think of grumpy, old Ove.
3. Forever Young By Alphaville
Lyrics:
Forever young,
I want to be forever young.
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever, and ever
Lestat wants to live forever, but what about Louis?? This one couldn't go together any more perfectly in my opinion!
4. I'll Make Love To You By: Boyz To Men
Lyrics:
I'll make love to you
Like you want me to
And I'll hold you tight
Baby all through the night
I'll make love to you
When you want me to
And I will not let go
Till you tell me to
I always crack up at how the men in this book can go all night (if you get my drift, and I think you do) and I don't care if they are vampires. It still doesn't make sense to me and it's funny, even though I LOVE the series. So a song all about making love and making love all night made me think of this one.
5. Chandelier By: Sia
Lyrics:
1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 drink
1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 drink
Throw 'em back, till I lose count
Here's looking at you, Jack. My favorite fictional alcoholic.
So that's it for the Playlist Book Tag! What do you think of the books I picked for the songs? Would you choose other books instead, if so which ones?! Also, as always I tag anyone who wants to do the tag. Also, I don't know why this is in a white box, but I can't figure out how to fix it. So OH WELL. Gah.
