Here are songs that I think are pretty appropriate for Digimon 01.

Most songs have romantic themes, so some of these songs imply such things, but the way I'm looking at them, none of them are meant in a romantic way (y'know I'm anti-romance or something ^_^.). What I'm getting at is, if you can't understand why I'd ascribe a particular song to a particular character/situation, then try reading it in a way other than the obvious meaning.

I still do by Cranberries
for Matt
When he leaves the group to 'find himself' - especially addressed to TK

I'm not ready for this
though I thought I would be
I can't see the future
though I thought I could see
I don't want to leave you
even though I have to
I don't want to love you
I still do

Need some time to find myself
you wouldn't live with it
can I go my own way
can I pray my own way
I don't want to leave you
oh I need you
am I ready for this
did I think I would be
can I see the future
no, I can't see

I don't want to leave you
even though I have to
I don't want to love you
I still do
I still do
I still do


I Float Alone by David Lynch and Angelo Badalamenti
for Sora
When she is swamped with the darkness and loses her will to fight

Floating through this darkness
All alone
Love is gone in darkness
Cold as a stone
Searching through the shadows you have known
Love's gone
Bare as a bone.

Trying to hold the memory face
You seem to have vanished without a trace
And in this darkness
This empty space
I float alone.

Now the night is falling
You have gone
Sad dreams blow through dark trees
Love's gone wrong
Clouds of sadness raining all night long
Love's gone
The end of our song.

I float alone
I float alone.


He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother by The Hollies
for Matt
About TK, of course ^_^.

The road is long
with a many a winding turn
that leads us to nowhere...
who knows where?

But I'm strong
strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy...
he's my brother

So on we go
His welfare is my concern
no burden is he to bear
We'll get there!

For I know
he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy...
he's my brother

If I'm a-laden at all
I'm a-laden with sadness
that everyone's heart
isn't filled with a gladness
of a love
for one another

It's a long, long road
from which there is no return
While we're on the way
to where, I'm not sure...

And the love
doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy...
he's my brother

He's my brother
He ain't heavy
He's my brother


Believe in myself from Sonic Adventure
for TK or Patamon
The 'him' would probably be Matt

When all alone in my chair
I just go about wishin'
I wanna be strong!
I really wanna be trusted

When all alone in my bed
I just go about yearnin'
I wanna be cool!
I also wanna be like him

But that's not something I can
do so easily...
This is not simply my way, my style...
Gotta get a hold of my life!

I wanna fly!
So I can reach the highest of all of the heavens!
Somebody will be waiting for me...
So I have gotta fly higher!

Gotta keep goin'!
Everything here's a great new challenge for me!
I will believe in myself -
Is this the only star for me?

When all alone in my sleep
I just go about dreamin'
I see myself there -
Havin' the same adventure...

If I just follow you
I will not see the light
Now's the time
to find my way through this night
I'm trying so hard to be strong!

I wanna fly!
So I can reach the highest of all of the heavens!
Somebody will be waiting for me...
So I have gotta fly higher!

Gotta keep goin'!
Everything here's a great new challenge for me!
I will believe in myself -
Is this the only star for me?

Brand new friends, help me out
In return, I help them
Certain things, I can do...
And there are things that only I can do!
No-one's alone!

I wanna fly!
So I can reach the highest of all of the heavens!
Somebody will be waiting for me...
So I have gotta fly higher!

Gotta keep goin'!
Everything here's a great new challenge for me!
I will believe in myself -
Is this the only star for me?


Shine by Vanessa Amorosi
for Matt
When he feels that he is a jerk and everyone else has improved but him

You say that you never had a mum and nobody needs you
So cry, so cry
You believe that life rolls by just to deceive you
By your time, by your time
You’re gettin' old
And the longer you take, the slower your pain will grow
It will grow, it will grow
You can close your eyes
And hope that when you open them, you’ve got a brand new life
Friend, you’ll find you can’t hide

You can give your life or you can lose your soul
You can bang your head or you can drown in a hole
Nothing lasts forever, but you can try
Look around you!
Everyone you see, everyone you know is gonna shine

Grow up and make the best of what you’ve got
Of what you’ve got
The days are going by and you’re sittin’ on your arse
And you’re wondering why
Why, why, why

You can give your life or you can lose your soul
You can bang your head or you can drown in a hole
Nothing lasts forever, but you can try
Look around you!
Everyone you see, everyone you know is gonna shine

You say that you’ve never had a mum and nobody needs you
So cry, so cry
You believe that life rolls by just to deceive you
By your time, by your time
You’re getting old
And the longer you take the slower your pain will grow
It’ll grow, it’ll grow
You can close you eyes
And hope that when you open them you’ve got a brand new life

You can give your life or you can lose your soul
You can bang your head or you can drown in a hole
Nothing lasts forever, but you can try
Look around you!
Everyone you see, everyone you know is gonna shine


Power of Love from Sailor Moon
for Mimi
When her crest glows, and about her generally

There comes a time
When you face the toughest of fights
Seeking for a sign
Lost in the darkest of nights

The wind blows so cold
Standing alone
Before the battle's begun
But deep in your soul
The future unfolds
As bright as the rays of the sun!

You've got to believe
in the power of love
You've got to believe
in the power of love
The power of love

Amazing emotion
There's a light that flows from your heart
It's a chain reaction
And nothing will keep us apart

Stand by my side
There's nothing to hide
Together, we'll fight 'til the end
Take hold of my hand
And you'll understand
What it truly means to be friends!

You've got to believe
in the power of love
You've got to believe
in the power of love
It gives meaning to each moment
It's what our hearts are all made of
You've got to believe
in the power of love
The power of love


Weird by Hanson
for Kari
Mostly the mood of it - that she is somewhat set apart, outside of normal people

Isn't it weird?
Isn't it strange?
Even though we're just two strangers
On this runaway train

We're both trying to find
A place in the sun
We've lived in the shadows
But doesn't everyone?

Isn't it strange
How we all feel a little bit weird sometimes?

Isn't it hard?
Standin' in the rain...
Yeah, you're on the verge of goin' crazy
And your heart's in pain

No-one can hear
But you're screamin' so loud...
You feel like you're all alone
In a faceless crowd

Isn't it strange
How we all get a little bit weird sometimes?

Sittin' on the side,
Waitin' for a sign,
Hopin' that my luck'll change

Reachin' for a hand
That'll understand
Someone who feels the same...

When you live in a cookie-cutter world
Bein' different is a sin
So you don't stand out
But you don't fit in

Weird

Ohh, sittin' on the side,
Waitin' for a sign,
Hopin' that my luck'll change

Reachin' for a hand
That'll understand
Someone who feels the same...

When you live in a cookie-cutter world
Bein' different, you can't win
So you don't stand out
And you don't fit in

Oh, isn't it strange
How we all feel a little bit weird
Strange how we all get a little bit
Strange how we all get a little bit weird
Sometimes


Because you loved me by Celine Dion
from Gatomon
To Kari

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you

I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through
Through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me

Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed
Because I was loved by you

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark
Shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies
You were the truth
My world is a better place
Because of you


Against All Odds by Phil Collins
for Gabumon
To Matt when he leaves

How can I just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me, when all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain, and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds and that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around, turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you, so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, well that's all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, 'cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
That's the chance I've got to take, oh, oho
Just take a look at me now


Candle on the Water from Pete's Dragon
from Gabumon
To Matt, especially in the Dark Masters saga

I'll be your candle on the water
My love for ye will always burn
I know you're lost and drifting
But the clouds are lifting
Don't give up: you have somewhere to turn

I'll be your candle on the water
'Til every way is warm and bright
My soul is there beside you
Let this candle guide you
Soon you'll see a golden stream of light

A cold and friendless time has found you
Don't let the stormy darkness pull you down
I'll paint a ray of hope around you
Circling in the air, lighted by a prayer

I'll be your candle on the water
This flame inside of me will grow
Keep holding on, you'll make it!
Here's my hand, so take it!
Look for me, reaching out to show
As sure as rivers flow -
I'll never let you go!

I'll never let you go!


We're a Miracle by Christina Aguilera
from Patamon
To TK

Ohhh
Here we are
Safe at last
We can breathe easy
It seems the storm has passed
Through it all
No one knew...
That all the tears in heaven
would bring me back to you

No one I know
Imagine we would make it
But it only matters that
we both believe!

You and me,
we're a miracle
Meant to be
and nothing can change it
Mountains move and oceans part
when they are standing in our way!

You and me,
we're a miracle
Angels stand
watching over us
And heaven shines upon us every day

Every time
I felt near defeat
You were there for me
On my side completely

You give me strength
You set me free
It's just because of you
I'm more than I can be

When I'm with you
The world is ours to reach for
Together, there is nothing we can't do!

You and me,
we're a miracle
Meant to be
and nothing can change it
Mountains move and oceans part
when they are standing in our way!

You and me,
we're a miracle
Angels stand
watching over us
And heaven shines upon us every day

The chance was so unlikely
That we would ever be
Two stars among the heavens
Destiny brought you to me!

You and me,
we're a miracle
Meant to be
and nothing can change it
Mountains move and oceans part
when they are standing in our way!

You and me,
we're a miracle
Angels stand
watching over us
And heaven shines upon us every day

You and me,
we're a miracle
You and me,
we're a miracle

Miracle


Love is a Shield by Camouflage
for Biyomon
When Sora is going to leave

Love is a shield
to hide behind,
love is a field
to grow inside,
and when I sometimes close my eyes
my mind starts spinning round.

Love is a baby
in a mother's arms,
love is your breath
which makes me warm,
and when I sometimes close my eyes,
my mind starts spinning round.

There is a feeling
that flows through me,
when you are near
you make it real
and we could live for this ideal.

And all the pictures we run through,
seem to be perfect,
seem to be true.
But nothing is quite forever,
especially staying together.

I don't care now
what comes along,
what counts is us,
no matter what will be,
just this naivety.

The changing words we're taking in,
seem to be perfect,
seem to win.
But nothing is quite forever,
especially staying together.


Hero by Mariah Carey
for Joe

There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you


If we hold on together by Diana Ross
for the 01 digidestined
I think it would make a good theme for Digimon generally

Don't lose your way
With each passing day
You've come so far
Don't throw it away
Live believing
Dreams are for weaving
Wonders are waiting to start
Live your story
Faith, hope and glory
Hold to the truth
In your heart

If we hold on together
I know our dreams
Will never die
Dreams see us through
To forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I

Souls in the wind
Must learn how to bend
Seek out a star
Hold on to the end
Valley, mountain
There is a fountain
Washes our tears
All away
Worlds are swaying
Someone is praying
Please let them come
Home to stay

If we hold on together
I know our dreams
Will never die
Dreams see us through
To forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I

When we are out there
In the dark
We'll dream about the sun
In the dark
We'll feel the light
Warm our hearts
Everyone

If we hold on together
I know our dreams
Will never die
Dreams see us through
To forever
As high
As souls can fly
The clouds roll by
For you and I
