Basically this thread is for songs you think represent the characters in TMNT. I've got a couple for Raphael:

0Z-l9IUBOqM

I think this correlates well with his frustration at being isolated by the world, and how his family treat him because of his anger. It's a pretty good song for the "misunderstood rebellous kid"

9IRM-ChUt4M

I don't think this one needs much explaining, lol. It goes well with his brutality and unpredicatble bouts of animalistic rage during fights, most prominently seen in the mirage comics.

Not really a song that fits the characters, but Shredder, Splinter, Lotus Blossom, or any other Japanese person in the canon would laugh uproariously at this song:

Seems like an interesting thread. Gonna post vids I think represent the characters in some way.

The first one is from Daft Punk called The Game of Love
CkZmoa_mqLk
It has minimal lyrics yet it manages to capture Donatello's love interest in April.

Woodkid- Conquest of Spaces is also a good song for Donatello
w9IR-JNrTcA


Daft Punk- Within. I just listened to it and I think it sounds oddly familiar to Leonardo
jlnm2MDAphk
This song sort of represents Leonardo's desire to find himself and to understand what is around and within himself. Kinda spiritual. Also similar to Donatello.

Woodkid- The Other Side. Could not find a youtube video without the silly pics.
AHYQ1u8IJJQ
This song explains Splinter's story. He is set on revenge but is the ending glorious as he thought it would be or is it just the start of a vicious circle. He trained his sons to kill, he seems to realize how selfish it was of him to do so when he must face his mortality and frailty.

Imagine Dragons- Monster. Obviously a Raph song. Which surprisingly describes him adequately.
hhSA9H9Iaqw
The original Raph can relate to this song because there is a monstrosity within him. Too bad the writers thought it was better to tell the "Monster within" story for Leatherhead and neglect Raphael's hardships in favor of a silly side character! So many missed opportunities.

Woodkid- Volcano. An excellent instrumental music video that does capture Raphael's personality.
tVSqd1SzkQE
Raphael's tendency to go berserk is slightly glorified in the old comics because once he is enraged he can destroy any foe which makes an interesting come back for the good guys. Well that is what I got from that instrumental.

That is all. I hope I shared some interesting music vids for peeps to listen to.

Ironically this song is actually supposed to be of the face a person makes when they...

I feel this song fits the Turtles and company.
