Songs worthy of being Godzilla's theme?

Post by godzillafan1954 »

Don't get me wrong, I love Godzilla's theme. I hum to it anytime it plays. But what if there was going to be a new theme? What songs could fill the role as Godzilla's song?

I hear a distant rumbling... What's that?! It's coming from under the ground!

Oh, God! It's Baragon with Pink undertones! Can't you hear its terrifying cry?!

"Baragooooooon's comin' up, so you better get this party started!"

Some of the lyrics remind me of the common themes of Gojira.

"I let you put it in my mouth
I let it get under my skin
I let you pump it through my veins
I let you take me from within"

Reminds me of humanity mutating him and mutilating him with nuclear weapons/radioactive pollution.

"I am you and you are me
We will never be alone
I have finally found my place in everything
I have finally found my home
I can leave all of this flesh behind
I can see right through the whole façade
I am becoming something else
I am turning into God"

Reminds me of how through our ignorance and all the pain we put Gojira through, he has ascended to an
almost god-like entity who is a reflection of our own destructive nature that has risen to the top and past us humans in terms of dominance of Earth.

Plus, it sounds so bad ass.

Just imagine Godzilla blowing shit up as he stomps through a city, encounters like Gigan or something and they fight all while this song is playing. I dunno just seems to fit for me

I have the PERFECT song for Godzilla 2014:
"Just as you distrust us, so we distrust others as well. It's wrong. We're all human. As humans we are responsible to each other. We are related. Refuse us, and you will abandon your brothers. We must learn to help each other."
- Sakai, Godzilla vs. The Thing

I seriously just ran into this song earlier today when I shuffled my songs and all I could think of was Shin Godzilla. I second this.

Yep, so I'm not the only one. I always thought this song was very "Shin Gojira." Glad to see somebody agrees!

A new theme you say?



It works a bit better if there's a battle going on and Godzilla has the upper hand, but it'll still work whenever his theme is required.
If you have digital copy codes for movies you want to give away, I'll gladly take them! :)

It opens with Shinji, Asuka, and Rei walking along the lifeless, red earth. Suddenly the ground begins to shake.
Godzilla bursts from the ground, killing the 3 pilots. Godzilla will then battle his newest opponent...

My most wanted fight ever is Discord vs Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.
Godzilla has a regen like Wolverine, a skin like Luke Cage, a hero aura like Captain America, a strength like Hulk, an unstoppability like Juggernaut, an immortality like Deadpool.

There's a 'God' in Godzilla for a reason...

Actually, I have a few selections (I put them in spoilers to save space):
For the opening theme, Godzilla going through a destroyed city, no sounds, except his footsteps, at the same time, we can hear this song:

And, for the ending, I can see some kind of pesimistic future coming with this one:

I'll always associate this with Godzilla, namely because I first heard it in a Godzilla fan music video. I could easily see this song playing as he emerges from the ocean and slowly progresses into the city, battles the military, another kaiju, etc.
Spoiler:

Also, originally the idea for the official video to this song was the Hiroshima bombing...

I've always thought this one from Meat Loaf fits him perfectly:

You're all dumb.

This is the most worthy song of being Godzilla's theme.
