    I knew or heard it or felt it before too. Maybe it was because it was obvious of the OT characters he was the most featured in the trailer and the mentor has always died?

    i guess i just always knew Harrison Ford wanted to kill the character off and i assumed that was how they convinced him to come back.
    i had no idea he was even going to be a "mentor" character or have so much screen time.
    and then i think i went into denial about halfway through the film, but the minute he went after Ben on the bridge, it was like the gate came down.

    sometimes i just watch the front half of the movie and pretend he's still alive ~ hahaha

    Now that you mention it! There have been a few songs in heavier rotation at my place.

    One that's kinda served as my Rey vs. Ren anthem is "The Dog Is Black" by UNKLE. Anyone know it? The lyrics are kind of about being haunted and afraid, and trying to stand up to it.

    OMG, NEW FAVORITE THING EVER. Laughing so hard I'm crying here...

    And the "Beat It" dance is not easy! I learned it once. I can't imagine doing it in a Vader costume. So, major props to that guy/gal.

    yep ~ that's some nightmare fuel for Rey, indeed.

    Steer me through,
    I know you're stuck here too
    When I feel you coming I stand up so I can attack
    ​
    how apropos.

    My favorite Luke Skywalker title would be:"Always Luke on the bright side of life..(whistle..)..":)
    ...because sometimes I miss the easyness of the OT times (even though Poe showed a bit of that spirit in TFA)

    not quite as funny as the "bad romance" one, but it gets points for creative editing! hahaha

    the one came to me while i was away ~ the lyrics are hilariously apropos.


    particularly this:

    Ben most people would turn you away;
    I don't listen to a word they say.
    They don't see you as I do;
    I wish they would try to    ​

    hahaha

    ... a song about Snoke manipulating Ben to the dark side?

    Sorry if that song has been already posted before

    Florence+ the machine 'long and lost'
    #save Ben Solo

    Lost in the fog, these hollow hills
    Blood running hot, night chills
    Without your love I'll be
    So long and lost, are you missing me
    Is it too late to come on home
    Are all those bridges now old stone
    Is it too late to come on home
    Can the city forgive, I hear its sad song
    I need the clouds to cover me
    Pull in the dark, surround me
    Without your love I'll be
    So long and lost, are you missing me
    Is it too late to come on home
    Are all those bridges now old stone
    Is it too late to come on home
    Can the city forgive, I hear its sad song
    It's been so long between the words we spoke
    Will you be there up on the shore, I hope
    You wonder why it is that I came home
    I figured out where I belong
    But it's too late to come on home
    Are all those bridges now old stone
    But it's too late to come on home
    Can the city forgive, I hear its sad song
