This is a special music feature Sunday edition and I bring you a selection of songs that represent Jacob’s journey in New Moon. These are the songs that always make me think of Jacob. The songs vary in genre and cover very specific aspects of Jacob’s story. There will be a poll at the end so that you all can give your opinion and there is also a discussion thread so you can list your favorite Jacob songs. If there are a lot of different songs I may consider having a second poll with different songs. So here is the list. Oh and before everyone asks over the next several weeks I will be doing songs for Bella and Edward as well as many other music related polls.
Be My Escape
Unwinding Cable Car by Anberlin – This song reminds me of the first time that Jacob sees Bella after Edward leaves. The lyrics are beautiful and the music sets the right tone.
Emotive unstable you’re like an unwinding cable car
Listening for voices, but it’s the choices that make us who we are
Go your own way, even seasons have changed just burn those new leaves over
So self-absorbed you’ve seemed to ignore the prayers that have already come about
(Don’t drop your arms)
Don’t drop your arms, I’ll guard your heart
With quiet words I’ll lead you in
So what if you can see the darkest side of me
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it’s not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal!
This animal, this animal
It’s Not Over by Daughtry – This is my ultimate Jacob New Moon song. The first time I heard this song I thought I Jacob at the end of New Moon standing by the tree looking at Bella back with Edward. It was so clear that Jacob wasn’t just going to give up and this song just speaks to that scene so clearly for me.
I was blown away what could I say
It all seemed to make sense
You’ve taken away everything
And I can’t do without
I try to see the good in life
But good things in life are hard to find
I created a playlist where you can listen to all the songs. To see the rest of my song choice explanations check the discussion thread where you can talk about your songs favorite Jacob songs too!
And now what you have all been waiting for the POLL.
