With Shadow and Bone right around the corner we thought it would be a good idea to put a playlist together all about General Kirigan. Played by Ben Barnes, this character is…complicated to say the least. And if you’ve read the book, you know what’s coming. If not, steer clear and save yourself for when Shadow and Bone premieres April 23, 2021 on Netflix.
1. Everything Black by Unlike Pluto featuring Mike Taylor
Baby, you
Should come with me
I’ll take you to the dark side
Me and you
You and me
Do bad things in the night time
Baby, you
Should come with me
And we can kill the lights, hit the lights
With a blackout, blackout
Hit the lights with a
Blackout, blackout, woo
2. Twisted by Missio
My mother, she told me, “Don’t get in trouble”
My father, he told me he knew I would
My brothers, they told me, “Don’t give a damn”
My sister, she told me to do something good
I’m uncontrollable, emotional, chaotically proportional
I’m visceral, reloadable
I’m crazy, I’m crazy, I’m crazy, I’m crazy
Everybody in the world knows I’m a little twisted, twisted
3. Street Fight by Adam Jensen
I’m a soldier, I’m a fighter
Take a step back, I’m on fire
Nothing’s gonna kill me
Nothing’s gonna stand in my way
Tryina break me, but I can’t break
I’m a bad dream, and you can’t wake
Nothing’s gonna kill me
Nothing’s gonna stand in my way
4. Bad by Royal Deluxe
I broke so many bones
But none of them were ever my own
They were an army, I was alone
I broke so many bones
I’m bad, as bad can be
So bad that it’s hard to believe
Oh, what they say about me
(I’m bad, I’m bad, as bad as can be)
5. Blood // Water by grandson
Look me in my eyes
Tell me everything’s not fine
Or the people ain’t happy
And the river has run dry
You thought you could go free
But the system is done for
If you listen real closely
There’s a knock at your front door
We’ll never get free
Lamb to the slaughter
What you gon’ do
When there’s blood in the water?
6. Flames by R3HAB featuring ZAYN
Well, well
You better run from me
You better hit the road
You better up and leave
Don’t get too close
‘Cause I’m a rolling stone
And I keep rolling on
You better run from me
Before I take your soul
7. Revolution by The Score
All my wolves begin to howl
Wake me up, the time is now
Oh oh oh, can you hear the drumming?
Oh oh oh, there’s a revolution coming
Wide awake
The fever burns
Sweat it out
Bring my turn
Can you hear the drumming?
There’s a revolution coming
