Thinking of songs (see post below)... What songs do you think Sam would like?
See, I have ideas in my brainpan as to what Jack would like. Teal'c also. Daniel I think of as not really paying attention to that sort of thing, his quiet moments being too busy with thinking, reading, etc. But Sam? I'm stumped. And I want it for a fic.
And also I thought it'd be fun to talk about.
My thoughts so far are -
- She maybe liked Madonna when she was a kid / teenager in the 80s (she'd have been, what, 12 years old in 1980)
- Also others from that period. George Michael, maybe? Was he popular in America then?
- Nowadays she doesn't get much chance to listen to music, but hey, she has a car, so...
- Stuff that Cassie / Janet have recommended / bought for her - I'm thinking of Faith Hill, but only 'cause of the story with 'This Kiss' in that made me go out and buy it (yes, yes I am a sucker)
- She hummed the Stargate theme. She needs to get a life.
- Argh
That's about as far as I've got.

I've always thought that her guilty pleasure may be some of the hair metal bands from the '80 like Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, and Guns and Roses. But I can see her being very embarrassed if anyone caught her listening to them.
On the not quite as cheesy side I can see her liking Aerosmith and John Mellancamp. I can see her tearing down the road on her Indian to an Aerosmith or Mellancamp tune. I've seen a lot of fic where people have her listening to country but I've never got seen that unless maybe it was outlaw country. I guess because of the bike and leather pants I see her enjoying harder stuff than you might think from the straightlaced Air Force officer. She need some sort of outlet to be wild or she would combust.
I also sort of see her listening to David Bowie. He had a lot of space themed music. A kid wanting to be an astronaut could be entranced by Space Oddity.
Hmm, Maybe the Eurhymics/Annie Lennox too.
And of course, U2, simply because I cannot fathom anyone not loving them. ; )
But yeah, I can see her liking classic 80's stuff or soundtracks or even classical because without lyrics it wouldn't disturb her while she was thinking. :)
I imagine Sam listening to classical when she studies (not at work, as I guess the Air Force might frown on that sort of thing). And when she - very occasionally - cuts loose, the consensus seems to be classic 80s stuff.
*loves her fictional characters possibly more than is healthy*
I was thinking yesterday that I'd like to think that Sam went through this brief punk rock phase either in high school or college. (Probably college because I could see her rebellious side being delayed a bit.) But it was brief and sweet and taught her a lot about the world and might have made her less of a geek.
Errr, I know what you mean. Way too much time working all these things out for them. :)
Sam rocks! *makes devil horns sign*
