Thank you all so much for making me feel welcome into the world of Teen Titans fan fiction. Needless to say, I was a bit anxious when I first posted 'For You', but it was something I HAD to do. But I'm glad it made you guys happy, I really am.
As far as the song itself is concerned, I can understand if some of you thought it had a slightly…sexual undercurrent to it. Unfortunately, I can't put a link to an mp3 of the song itself; otherwise I'd probably get done for it. So I'll try to explain as best as I can.
My Dying Bride belong to a genre of bands known as Doom Metal. The usual theme of Doom Metal is a blend of romance and tragedy, love and death, hate and sorrow, and (in the case of My Dying Bride in particular) some slightly erotic references. But I used the song 'For You' to try and emphasis Beast Boy's sense of desperate longing and his aching desire to be with Raven, not his desire for physical contact, although it's implied, needless to say. But I strongly suggest you try to download the song yourself, as it's one of my favourite My Dying Bride songs. In fact, 'Like Gods Of The Sun' is one of my favourite MDB albums. And if you enjoy MDB, I strongly recommend bands like Anathema, Paradise Lost and some of the older Opeth albums.
That's all for now. Again, thank you all so much, and keep watching.
Right. I'm off to do epic battle with a mouldy block of cheese in my fridge. Strangely enough, it's been there for so long it's actually evolved into a progressive folk duo.
Oh well, off I go. Take care!
