alright hogwarts are you ready for some real music
i said are you ready? are you ready?
i can hear you alright
come on i wanna see your hands in the air
we're gonna teach you a brand new dance tonight
so move your body
you gotta help us hogwarts, together we can do this thing
are you ready, are you ready?

like a hairy troll, learn to rock and roll
spin around like a crazy elf
dancing by himself
boogie down like a unicorn
don't stop until the break of dawn
put your hands up i the air like an ogre just don't care

can you dance like a hippogriff
flying off from a cliff
swooping down to the ground
wiggle around and around and aournd and around ma

move around like a scary ghost
spooky getting ?
shae your booty like a ? in pain
again and again and again
get it on like an angry spectre who's definitely out to get ya
stamp your feet like a leprechaun
get it on, get it on

can you dance like a hippogriff
flying off frfom a cliff
swooping down to the ground
wiggle around and around and around and around

yeah yeah yeah ooh come on
ooh you gotta move it
like a groovy creature, creature of the night
that's right a creature of the night
well do you feel alright, i feel alright
*howl*

can you dance like a hippogriff
flying off from a cliff
swooping down to the ground
wiggle around and around and around and around and around
ah come on ah come on
yeah can you dance all night

    Lyrics in this are wrong, if i were to show you i'd have to write out my own version. I like this because...well, who's ever seen moshing at Hogwarts? It's cool and i agree with SF because it's just like whoa and odd because you wouldn't expect the wizarding world to be like that. :) btw grayce yeah you're right.

    Why did J.K. Rowling have to deny Jarvis Cocker the sonic pleasure of making a whole album of songs in this vein? That would rock my socks off.

    Since I love WRock (wizard rock) with a passion, this made my day (along with Magic Works) when I saw it in the movie. Jarvis Cocker is brilliant, J.K. is brilliant, how could it have come out anything but brilliant. I think I will have the lyrics "shake your booty like a boggart in pain" etched on my brain forever.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
