music makes the people come together

[hth]

Okay, there's apparently 130 of you out there, and since the only thing I've done with this journal since the stone age is post Atlantis fic, y'all must be mainly Atlantis fans. Therefore, you are of use to me:

Tell me (or point me in the direction of whoever else has gone on this quest before me) what kind of music our Space Heroes listen to.

Does Rodney have a secret rock'n'roll life, or is it just all about the piano? Who's filed next to Johnny Cash on Shep's Napster account? Is Elizabeth remotely cool in any way? And don't forget Ford! Actually, don't forget anybody, I'm interested in the whole station, anyone you might be able to think of.

And, you know, I mention again that there are *130* of you reading a journal where I do nothing but post fic, so you must have some kind of vested interest in my fic. And this is for a story! So help me out and I can, you know, write the story!

Sheppard loves Springsteen, whose let's-ride-out-of-this-crappy-town message resonated deeply with him as a kid. Then he matured into the later stuff about honest but flawed human beings trying to make their way in a hard world.

Ford loved music he could dance to: techno and hip-hop and rap and pop.

Weir listens to sexy soulful singers like Eva Cassidy and Beth Orton when she's alone, unwinding from stress. It's also easy for me to imagine her loving show-tunes, though I can't say why.

McKay's tastes are the most eclectic, running across genres from classical to punk. I could totally buy him listening to angry white boy music.

Teyla and Ronon...um. Well, it'd be hilarious if they were to like the unexpected from what they sampled of earth music. Like if Ronon loved Celine Dion ballads or something.

Oooo...Weir listening to Nina Simone and Billie Holiday in a darkened room...I like.
