Hey everyone I need help with this song. I really like it but I do not know what type of act I should use it for. The song is called "Somewhere I Belong" by Linkin Park. I have a link that plays the song so check it out and write back cause I need your help.

I just watched the making of this video on MTV. That was a pretty cool video. I like a lot of the shots in it. I'll see what I can come up with. We use music very similar to this throughout our show.

I think of "Impaled" when I hear this song.

I like that idea of Impaled, it would go great with the music. Thanks Eldon. I am still looking for suggestions (just to get a well rounded opinion) if anyone has any more thoughts on this piece. Smile

link,

I worked with a writer once who would speckle her scripts with "INSERT JOKE HERE." She didn't get that humor had to grow out of the script organically, or it was forced. So I'd have to encourage you to ruminate on what the song (which I love) means to you.

For me, it's all about being an outsider, so I might have several prim & proper librarian-type ladies (this is my fantasy after all) appear (magically) and disapprove of you. Then through a flash quick-change, they end up dressed to match you (and are all over you).

I don't do stage illusion, but stumbled on this topic and had to add my 2 cents after I saw it was about LP.

Thanks Sean, I like that view. To me the song means a million things at once, mainly the emotion is what sticks out to me.

Sean, that's a great Idea. You took this heavy tune and created a great story to go with it. Good thinking.

Sean..librarian fantasies? Man ... that is potent stuff.

The disapproval image is especially telling.
