Re: Which song reminds you of Once Upon A Time?

[Josephine]

I’ve got a few additions:

White Horse by Taylor Swift – This is so Neal/Emma. I always pictured it as a teenage Emma song, but after we got “Tallahassee” is seems even more so. What’s even more ironic is that this is so perfect, but at the same time she is a fairytale princess and doesn’t know it. So heartbreaking. Just read some of the lyrics.

I had so many dreams about you and me.
Happy endings, now I know.

I’m not a princess, this ain’t a fairy tale,
I’m not the one you’ll sweep off her feet, lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down,
Now it’s too late for you and your white horse to come around

We Are Never, Ever Getting Back Together once again a Taylor Swift song – I can see this being Emma’s thoughts about Neal. However, “the lady doth protest too much, methinks.”

Wow, you’d think that 1) I’m a huge Taylor Swift fan, and while I like some of her songs, I don’t really consider myself a fan and 2) That I dislike Neal/Emma. Far, far from the truth. I’m a huge SwanThief/SwanFire fan, but the angst just works right now. I can’t wait for all the anger and emotions and fieworks to come out, because beneath all of it, I think she still loves him. That’s why it hurts so much.

One more to throw out for today,

Dark Side by Kelly Clarkson – Definitely a Rumbelle song.
