Listen to "The Bravest Man I Ever Knew" by the Ministry of Magic! That's what made me get into wrock.

That is my all-time favorite Wrock song. Probably not surprising... *coughs* *points at avvie* *cough*

I love that song, and "Snape vs. Snape."

SNAPE lessthanthree.

I gotta say I think my fav's are "The Year Harry Went Emo" "In Which Draco and Harry Secretly Want to Make Out" "Accio Love" and, of course, "Snape vs. Snape" <3

I'm just curious, has anyone here ever filked a song? If you have, which one, and what is it about?

Mine was "Warm Leatherette" by The Normal (WARNING!!! The song is about a car crash, and it's pretty creepy, so listen at your own risk), which was turned into "Warm Memories" and describes Snape's death scene.

I had never even heard of "filking" before. I guess you learn something new every day. xD

Whoops! Never occurred to me that filking wasn't a well-known term. Some Ravenclaw I am!

Anyhoots. If you clicked on the link, it explains that "filking" is taking one song and re-writing the lyrics to make it pertain to a certain fandom. "99 Death Eaters" by Draco and the Malfoys, for example, is a filk of "99 Luftballoons" by Nena.

^^ There's a Youtube video of someone singing that, and they added another verse and a bridge. Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gesl3iZNznc

My favourite Wrock bands are Oliver Boyd and the Remembralls, The Butterbeer Experience ("Merope's Song" makes me cry), and Ministry of Magic. I wish more of OBatR's stuff was on iTunes, it'd be so much easier to get to.
