A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM SOUNDTRACK Tracks 15-20(the END)

Track 15-16. OBERON
"Smooth Operator" By Sade and
"The Fianna Battle Song"
"Smooth Operator" describes Oberon to a tea! He is smooth, cool, and comes up with delicious little schemes. There is only one lyric that is not perfect for him. That is: "his eyes are like angels'/his heart is cold". I don't see Oberon as a cold hearted spirit, but everything else in the song suites him to perfection!
"The Fianna Battle Song" is fairly well known as far as Celtic music goes. This song also captures what I think is part of Oberon's personality.
Track 17-18. PUCK
This one is REALLY HARD. I've been scouring the music industry to find the perfect song(s) for Puck. Unfortunately, there are very few that fit perfectly. So, here is what I've done: I picked songs that maybe resemble Puck a teeny tiny bit. Example:
"Marco Polo" by Loreena Mckennit
I REALLY like this song for Puck, because of the way the music sounds--an excellant addition to Puck's personality.

"HIGHER" by Tio Cruz
The lyrics say it all. Puck does things for kicks. He enjoys life and doesn't care what anyone(except maybe Oberon) this of him or what he does. He's a party boy, and that's what makes this song work. I'll shut up now and let you listen to the song.

TRACK 19. PYRAMUS AND THISBE
"Dirty Pop" by 'NSYNC
Imagine six grown men dancing to this and dancing it horribly. Indulge me. Then you'll see why I picked this song ^_^
TRACK 20. END
"When Did Your Heart Go Missing" By Rooney
"Are you Gonna Be My Girl" By JET
This first of these songs is what imagine going through Demitrius, Helena, Titanita and Oberon's heads. It seems like the question they would be asking. But it's also one of my favorites!
"Are You Gonna be My Girl". Oh, the immortal question that every guy asks. In this case, the answer is yes. "Midsummer Night's Dream" has a happy ending, which is what we all love, right?
