Good Omens S3 speculation playlist

These pieces have sort of drifted into becoming the soundtrack for all my wild speculations about what Season 3 might bring, acting as placeholder music until David Arnold works his Euterpean magic -- see what you think! :D

Dies Irae (Karl Jenkins Requiem (link goes to youtube playlist of the full album, 'cos it's awesome and seriously worth listening to)) -- this is far and away my favourite version of the Dies Irae; it feels particularly appropriate for GO because it's borderline bebop and sounds like something Crowley'd have playing loudly in the Bentley while driving like fury to save the world (or possibly invading Heaven to rescue his True Love) if he felt Queen wouldn't quite cut it. Plus, per this post, the four-note Dies Irae motif appears a few times in the score to S1 (appropriately enough!) -- why not try listening to the OST again and finding them all? ;D

Dancing Mad (Nobuo Uematsu FF6) -- bit of an oddball association, I know; I happened to be reading a post making jokes about Kakfa (as in Franz Kakfa) shortly after the release of S2, only I mis-parsed 'Kafka' as 'Kefka' (as in Kefka Palazzo) and was promptly deluged with mental images of the Ineffables being badass adorable together to the tune of Dancing Mad! XD Plus, I like the image of Heaven suddenly hearing the organ notes at 11:32 crescendoing in the background, and the elevator doors slamming open right when the vocal-ish bit kicks in at 11:51 to reveal a certain VERY cheesed-off serpent who's in a rescuing mood :D (He does love to be dramatic, after all ^^)

Adiemus (Karl Jenkins Symphonic Adiemus) -- I just really like this track, and it feels kind of appropriate for a moment of renewed hope and building optimism after a moment of what Tolkien called 'eucatastrophe' and TVTropes calls 'Near Villain Victory' -- something we're almost certain to get in S3

In Caelum Fero (Karl Jenkins Symphonic Adiemus) -- from the same album as Adiemus above (In Caelum Fero is the first track, actually, so I've make the link one that takes you to the start of the playlist). It sounds threatening and dramatic and hopeful by turns -- appropriate for the Apocalyptic situation that's brewing for S3 -- and the title translates from the Latin as 'I will bear you to Heaven', which matches up to The Final Fifteen in two or three different ways! ;_; (#FuckTheMetatronWithACactus)

Sanctus (Karl Jenkins The Armed Man: A Mass For Peace) -- ever since I first heard this track waay back in 2001, I've associated it with the image of hordes of angels marching to war; it certainly sounds ominous enough!

I'll Be Your Mirror (Velvet Underground) -- I got into Velvet Underground entirely because of Good Omens! I love this track in particular because it sounds so utterly perfect for one of the Ineffables trying to bolster the other's confidence (in my imagination, it's usually Crowley trying to boost Aziraphale, 'cos that poor angel's self-esteem is atrocious :( *hugs*)

Pale Blue Eyes (Velvet Underground) -- Crowley's fave VU song, I gather :D Plus, despite the title, this particular love song was apparently written for someone with hazel eyes (just like our angel!) :D

I Found A Reason (Velvet Underground) -- I can't offhand remember seeing this song mentioned in fandom discussions of VU, which seems a bit of a shame; it feels just so darn PERFECT as a summary of how the Ineffables feel about each other! <3

Edit/addition 18/02/2024:

The Dark Morris Song (Steeleye Span, Wintersmith album) -- this one's an absolute bop, is connected to Discworld (so Aziraphale would probably approve!) and is very thematically appropriate for the Ineffable Husbands; Pterry thought up the Dark Morris (danced in secrecy and silence, in black costumes, deep in the forest, to welcome the winter -- first mentioned in Reaper Man, becomes a plot point in Wintersmith) as a counterpart and counterbalance to the traditional Morris dance to welcome the summer. The whole 'balance of light and dark' thing is a big part of the Ineffables' story <3

The Good Witch (Steeleye Span, Wintersmith album) -- also a very good match for the Ineffable Husbands' vibe; the first half of the song is about a witch being good and loving and caring even if she is 'ugly' or gets tagged as 'wicked' for whatever reason (A. J. Crowley, anyone???), and the second half is the actual Terry Pratchett doing a spoken-word reading of his passage about what 'cackling' means for Discworld witches -- which matches up uncomfortably well with what the impossibly high standards Heaven imposes on Aziraphale have already done to his psyche in terms of c-PTSD and compassion fatigue, and what they might still do in the worst-case scenario...

Stranger In Paradise (Alexander Armstrong version) -- I just feel like this coincidentally matches the Vibes (tm) of bits and pieces of the Ineffable Husbands' story! "Won't you answer the fervent prayer/Of this stranger in Paradise/Don't send me in dark despair/From all that I hunger for!" -- The Final Fifteen/Ineffable Breakup, anyone? "If I stand starry-eyed/That's a danger in Paradise" -- danger of angel/demon relationships being discovered. "I saw your face/And I ascended" [...] "Somewhere in space/I am suspended/Until I know/ There's a chance that you care" -- bits of 'Before the Beginning' and The Final Fifteen! Plus, the title alone feels perfect for Azzy's feelings/situation at the end of S2... Brb, crying!

“Supergabber” by TORIENA

DV:

With trance resurgent and an EDM revival simmering, it seems inevitable that I’ll hear the new age x house bangers (I’m calling this ”Adiemus”-core) I really want. In the meantime, TORIENA has done better than I ever dreamed, taking some massed choirs and slamming a fucked up gabber beat into them like a mad scientist. “Supergabber” is chaos incarnate, a track that feels unpredictable and dangerous no matter how often you’ve heard it. It shouldn’t work, or rather seems like it shouldn’t work, but TORIENA melds these disparate parts into one of the year’s most propulsive and intense experiences. It’s structured vaguely like a pop song, while lacking the other key conventions of pop music (e.g. vocals, predictability.) It’s built from dance music tropes, while lacking key conventions of dance music (e.g. the ability to move to a beat without injuring yourself.) At one point there’s a sample that says “We do not seek to understand right from wrong anymore” and on one hand, who is we? But on the other it’s correct, ironically so: “Supergabber” is beyond right and wrong, beyond good and evil. TORIENA is making music for a far-flung future. When aliens need to kick back after conquering the planet, maybe they’ll be able to find sense in it. For now it just sounds intensely sensational.

MG:

On the other hand, I love “Supergabber” because it sounds like a fucked up jock jam, like TORIENA took the holy choir from Madonna’s “Like A Prayer” and the synths from 2 Unlimited’s “Get Ready For This” and blended them. But not strictly in the sense of combination -- more importantly, they’re now at the speed of the blender. A siren, of course, appears early on to warn us all of assault, emergency, and to gently suggest that things will only get more intense after their already surreal beginnings. Importantly, “Supergabber” never goes anywhere. As propulsive and unleashed as it is, the song simply ricochets around in a cylinder. Maybe it’s a mosh pit, maybe it’s a rabid dog chasing its tail, but it’s never representative or indicative of progress. This is a song for being totally stuck and absorbing a brutal beating, a song that demands you take it, that extracts your submission. It’s beautiful, I cower with pleasure.

I was watching a dramatic video featuring the song Adiemus and no matter what was happening on that video, all I could see was Link wobbling on top of a boulder in the middle of a lake of lava while Dan was laughing hysterically as Arin sang his heart out. The dramatic aspect of that video was irremediably lost on me

Adiemus – Jenkins (1944-present)

This article was written for the August 2022 issue of our parish magazine. You can read it again here: Whether you love or loathe the work of Karl Jenkins, he is one of the most performed living composers in the world. His most popular piece (alongside his full choral work, “The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace”) is this one. Since joining the Manchester Chorale in 2016 I have had the honour of…

Karl Jenkins – Adiemus

[autistic-zukoao3]

That Autism Mood when it's time to Info Dump Immediately

Funny story related to this song: My grandpa is someone who will absolutely make up bullshit on the spot if you ask him something he doesn't know. My mom asked him if he knew what the title (Adiemus) and so he told her it was Latin but couldn't recall what it meant.

This is because it is not Latin. In fact, it's not any real language at all! The writer, Karl Jenkins (and maybe others? Idk) just made up words that flowed nicely with the song. It's a fictional language, rather than any real, recognized language.
