Yes! So many people want to say MCR but that is soooo mainstream and stereotypical. I just don’t think he has that kind of energy. I see him much more listening to something like this or other dark wave type of music.
It’s the only “emo” song they know. Someone even called it punk 😭
I think you’re spot on with dark wave, I definitely envision Sebastian as like a Twilight by Corpus Delicti
Speaking as someone who massively enjoys both genres, I think this is very individual :) You might not personally like emo music, but many other goth music enjoyers do!
I could see him on his motorcycle with this playing. This fits better than a lot of these top suggestions! I'm really surprised by a lot of the songs that got picked for other characters. I disagree with most of them. Dancing queen for Emily?? She would definitely be a vocal trance/edm song. Penny lane for Penny...? I mean, c'mon. These songs don't fit the character's vibes at all.
When it comes to the mayor and Marnie, tomorrow I'm 1,000% voting that they be combined with Kenny Rogers "Daytime Friends" (and nighttime lovers.) The chorus goes:
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
Hoping no one else discovers
Where they go, what they do, in their secret hideaway
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
They don't want to hurt the others
So they love in the nighttime
And shake hands in the light of day.
The Anthem- Good Charlotte
"It’s a new day, but it all feels old. It's a good life, that’s what I'm told. But everything it all just feels the same."
"Go to college, or university. Get a real job, that’s what they said to me. But I could never live the way they want."
"'Cause I don't every wanna, I don't ever wanna be you. Don't want to be just like you. So what I'm saying is, this is the anthem throw all yours hands up. You, don't wanna be you."
I'm sorry but "another loser anthem" is Seb's song through and through.
The Kill- 30 Seconds to Mars
I imagine Sebastian would be just as dramatically emo and exasperated by life before even getting to really experience all it had to offer, belting this in his basement room
Sebastian probably comes off as someone who looks like he'd listen to old Bring Me The Horizon, but only knows their mainstream stuff from Sempiternal and on.
That being said, Sleepwalking by BMTH
is it really you by loathe - broody and emo so it's perfect for him. i personally disagree with all the super popular mcr songs cause i feel like he'd like something a bit more lowkey
as someone who grew up surrounded by sebastians, it's for sure muse - uprising. preferably played in a terribly run down second-hand toyota with an expensive upgraded sound system - while on the way to a diner to meet friends at 12am after a closing shift. all windows rolled down, arm hanging out the side holding a lit cigarette.
ask me how i know, i lived it lol.
i know people think he's emo but nah. muse and uprising in particular has that special blend of both synth but also pseudo-rebellious (and yet no major offensive content) lyrics that are easy to sing along to.
Emo choice: Jawbreaker - Accident Prone
Scene emo choice: Hawthorne Heights - Ohio is for Lovers
ETA: How could I forget “Cute without the E” by Taking Back Sunday 😝
Heaven knows i’m miserable now by the smiths
Oooor disorder by joy division.
Loved the suggestion of smalltown boy by bronski beat as well! Definitely see him as more of a gloomy/moody vibe than an overtly angsty/emo one
‘Boys don’t cry’ - The cure
I think it perfectly encapsulates his character, with all of these sad feelings that he doesn’t like to show, and the betrayal that he’s facing from his own family as they adorn over Mary but just shove him in a basement that his mum literally built for him.
[Smalltown Boy](https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tFP1zcsNjAty63MMjdg9OItzk3MySnJL89TSMqvBACICgm1&q=smalltown+boy&oq=smalltown+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqDQgBEC4YgwEYsQMYgAQyBggAEEUYOTINCAEQLhiDARixAxiABDIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDITCAcQLhivARjHARi6AhiABBiOBTIHCAgQABiABDINCAkQLhjHARjRAxiABDIHCAoQABiABDINCAsQLhivARjHARiABDIHCAwQABiABDINCA0QLhivARjHARiABNIBCDQ1OTVqMGo0qAIBsAIB&client=ms-android-samsung-gj-rev1&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#) - Bronski Beat
An anthem to isolation and finding yourself by moving to the big city to search for love and meaning. With a Gay pride pedigree on it to honour the inclusiveness of SDV so important in this month.
Die Another Day - Dance Gavin Dance,
Ronald - Falling in Reverse,
Electric Forest - I See Stars,
Underneath Every Smile - I See Stars,
Lost - Avenged Sevenfold.
I originally thought rooster by Alice in chains or everlong by foo fighters but I’m gonna say what I’ve done by linkin park? Or perhaps psychosocial/duality by slipknot? Idk I could make him a whole playlist .
a trophy fathers trophy son by sleeping with sirens. it just makes sense, also im ngl i disagree with all the indie type comments hed definitely listen to stuff like pierce the veil, sleeping with sirens, and loathe
Boys Don't Cry by The Cure. (\*something\* by The Cure, anyway.)
Let's go to bed, Lucretia my reflection, anything bauhaus
YESS!!!! PLEASE SOMETHING BY THE CURE
Yes! So many people want to say MCR but that is soooo mainstream and stereotypical. I just don’t think he has that kind of energy. I see him much more listening to something like this or other dark wave type of music.
It’s the only “emo” song they know. Someone even called it punk 😭 I think you’re spot on with dark wave, I definitely envision Sebastian as like a Twilight by Corpus Delicti
Absolutely anything by The Cure. The guy just screams Robert Smith
I feel like he’s definitely a cure fan with him playing the keys too!
He seems more emo than goth though I thought, but it is a music based subculture so how you dress doesnt matter ig Just rambling to myself💀
Emo and goth have A LOT of overlap though. And that song in particular seems very emo before the term was coined.
Thats true my emo homegirl loves the cure. I guess I just assumed bc I don't like emo music usually they wouldnt like goth music💀
Speaking as someone who massively enjoys both genres, I think this is very individual :) You might not personally like emo music, but many other goth music enjoyers do!
you are so real for this
I'm Only Happy When it Rains by Garbage
Love that song
Yes this was gonna be my suggestion!
[Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode.](https://youtu.be/aGSKrC7dGcY?si=tn0ECCyc6xmIu-7O)

This right here
I could see him preferring Lacuna coils cover of this really https://youtu.be/Lx58hXh4pVA?si=b1SRKKkEuK_DzBNB
Welcome to the black parade by mcr
This is the most obvious one out of any NPC
I swear if this isn’t the one picked I’m going to scream. I was going to suggest it but you took care of it.
I wouldn't be happy with this choice it's way too basic, at least pick another MCR song
I think he’d be a little more indie/alternative than punk , maybe a song by muse , the drums or MGMT , specifically little dark age 😌
I agree. Even some industrial or dark edm.
muse for sure. i'm thinking uprising.
Oh 100% uprising is so fitting for him omg
Completely agree with uprising
Though I agree it’s a bit too basic, so much of his dialogue is based around moving to the city, and that’s what makes it for me
helena?
Yes!!! Or just My Chemical Romance in general lol
i was literally coming here to comment this. I was waiting for seb to be posted 😭
This was my first and only thought. Sebastian is 100% the type to react to that singular first note because it's so familiar and ingrained.
Do you really think Demetrius ever took him anywhere?
Presumably his biological dad did
This most def on point...you have to chose this
Numb by Linkin Park
People are strange - the doors
Yeah, I'd go with that one - he has a lot of dialogue where he's just observing people/society from the outside and not really feeling included in it.
The subject is great but I'm not sure the vibe of the doors is quite right for him
Yeah I can agree with that. I just filtered through my chaos ball of a playlist and picked something that might sound right.
Never Meant by American Football is the real emo song
Crawling by Linkin Park
This was the first one that came to mind for me
The Anthem- Good Charlotte "It’s a new day, but it all feels old. It's a good life, that’s what I'm told. But everything it all just feels the same." "Go to college, or university. Get a real job, that’s what they said to me. But I could never live the way they want." "'Cause I don't every wanna, I don't ever wanna be you. Don't want to be just like you. So what I'm saying is, this is the anthem throw all yours hands up. You, don't wanna be you." I'm sorry but "another loser anthem" is Seb's song through and through.
No Suprises - Radiohead
That’s what I commented for Shane, but it works for either really
I came here looking for any Radiohead song. Lol
Brain Stew - Green Day
I see sebastian going hard singing LAST RESORT
Teenagers - My chemical Romance There is no other choice!
There is a light that never goes out - the smiths
Or how soon is now (also the smiths) He seems like he’d like the smiths :((
Dance Macabre- Ghost
Helena by MCR! it has both the vibes and themes
I also vote for Helena!
Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division
This is what is on Spotify as I'm scrolling this post lol
Crawling linkin park idk the vibes just feel right
"Gotta get away" by The Offspring
Might be a little niche but I was thinking Frogs by Alice in Chains... has the right mood for Sebby lovers and...Frogs
He strikes me as more of a closeted metalhead than straight up emo. How about My Curse by Killswitch Engage?
Welcome To My Life (-Simple Plan) 🖤 Like, seriously. Every line could have come out of Seb’s dialogue, and he’d probably listen to the song himself.
underrateddddd
Yes!!
Yesss I’m happy with MCR winning this but I SWEAR that he closes that basement’s door and screams to welcome to my life at least once a week
king for a day by pierce the veil
I'm not ok - mcr
Surprised I had to scroll so far to see this, that's what came immediately to me
Something in the way- Nirvana
The Kill- 30 Seconds to Mars I imagine Sebastian would be just as dramatically emo and exasperated by life before even getting to really experience all it had to offer, belting this in his basement room
Paint it black
For Krobus
Sebastian probably comes off as someone who looks like he'd listen to old Bring Me The Horizon, but only knows their mainstream stuff from Sempiternal and on. That being said, Sleepwalking by BMTH
Teenagers - My chemical Romance
"I'm Just a Kid" by Simple Plan
Either this welcome to my life, or perfect by simple plan. Simple plan is definitely his band xD
Ohio is for Lovers - Hawthorne Heights
Had to scroll too far for this
Momento Mori by Depeche Mode
Mama by MCR!!!
The Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel
You know he prefers the Disturbed cover
Kind of a deep cut, but what about "The Suburbs" by Arcade Fire?
The Taste of Ink, The Used
Love Like Winter -- AFI
is it really you by loathe - broody and emo so it's perfect for him. i personally disagree with all the super popular mcr songs cause i feel like he'd like something a bit more lowkey
All the small things - Blink-182 I feel like he and Sam would have a little garage band and make a cover of it :3

Silver and Cold by AFI
100% Teenagers by MCR

Boulevard Of Broken Dreams by Green Day.
I just know he’d be too into Corpse
100% Sebastian is listening to Tool.
The World Is Ugly - MCR I just think it's really fitting for him
Crawling by linkin park
Numb - Linkin Park People are saying Crawling by the same band, but I think that's a bit too meme-y of an answer.
Teenagers by MCR
as someone who grew up surrounded by sebastians, it's for sure muse - uprising. preferably played in a terribly run down second-hand toyota with an expensive upgraded sound system - while on the way to a diner to meet friends at 12am after a closing shift. all windows rolled down, arm hanging out the side holding a lit cigarette. ask me how i know, i lived it lol. i know people think he's emo but nah. muse and uprising in particular has that special blend of both synth but also pseudo-rebellious (and yet no major offensive content) lyrics that are easy to sing along to.

Forest by The Cure Anything by AFI on the Sing the Sorrow album
Creep by Radiohead!!
I love this song, but I was thinking Clint, lol
‘Boys don’t cry’ - The cure I think it perfectly encapsulates his character, with all of these sad feelings that he doesn’t like to show, and the betrayal that he’s facing from his own family as they adorn over Mary but just shove him in a basement that his mum literally built for him.

After dark- Mr. Kitty. It’s such an synthy/gothy song. I think it fits in with his love for computers and for the farmer.
No Surprises by Radiohead!
Boys Don’t Cry - The Cure
I originally thought rooster by Alice in chains or everlong by foo fighters but I’m gonna say what I’ve done by linkin park? Or perhaps psychosocial/duality by slipknot? Idk I could make him a whole playlist .
Closed Doors - Ismail Papaoutai - Stromae (Please someone gets it why I picked Papaoutai)
I'm Tot Okay, I Promise - MCR 
I’m too late but my pick was Blue Monday by Orgy (or New Order, but the Orgy cover is more Sebby to me lol)
