Eva Cassidy's version of "Fields of Gold" reminds me of Lilly's path, for obvious reasons
Also: it's stunningly beautiful, much like the whole route.

Gosh, here come back the tears in my eyes. The lyrics fits the path insanely, it's almost scary, yet i admit I like Sting's version a little more.

I think I played Lilly's route with a soundtrack of Belle & Sebastian, and the Bruch violin concert in G minor but that's because I needed to relearn it.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls maybe for Hanako or Hisao.

And I might just be completely insane, but I think A Little Faster by There for Tomorrow fits Emi and Hisao's relationship. But like I said, I could be absolutely insane and imagining this.

EDIT: Just thought of another one, Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime I just think it fits well with whoever Hisao chooses.
Fav Characters: Hanako > Lilly > Akira> Shizoon > Miki > Rin > Emi
Fav Character paths: Lilly = Hanako > Rin > Emi > Shizoon

I feel bad for Hanako cuz it seems that she's better off by the end of the game when you pick Lilly's route as opposed to her own.
Akira X Hanako shipper :3

I was just thinking of this the other day when I was listening to this song:



The western style, the fact that it's about not wanting to let somebody slip away and the emphasis of "listening" to heartbeats (rather than something visual) made me think of Lilly's entire storyline.
(and disregard the silly album cover and artist name, it's still a very nice song. Also, it's a cover but I think Eddie does a better version.)

Here's the lyrics (I'll put it behind a spoiler wall since it has so many paralells to Lilly's storyline)

Baby it's a cold hard world out there
Broken hearted people everywhere
Takin' whatever love they get
I don't wanna wind up like that, so

Baby throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
'Cause baby I don't wanna lose you yet

You know I love you and I know you love me
It's everything that love's supposed to be
But I don't wanna look up one day
And find out we let it slip away

Baby throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
'Cause baby I don't wanna lose you yet

Can't tell you nothin' 'bout love I guess
That you don't already know
But girl, when you're in my arms like this
I don't ever wanna let you go

Baby maybe I'm wrong but what it I'm right
And everything's depending on us tonight
Maybe we'll pass this way again
But honey I don't wanna wait 'til then so

Baby throw your arms around my neck
Lay your pretty head against my chest
Listen to one heartbeat then the next
'Cause baby I don't wanna lose you yet

Welcome to the New South, by Less Than Jake, makes me think of Hisao in Rin's path.

"Welcome back outcast
Because I've told myself
That it would be alright
Probably about a million times
Over every minute of all of my life
I know how it feels
To be so confused
That you're so far out of control

And to be in the edge of your bed
With your head buried in your hands
Wishing that everything would end
Yeah, I know how it feels to be the loneliest"

OFF-TOPIC

Song "Wiosna" from the tracklist was made by some guy from Poland?

Anyway... It would be cool if someday you release new paths for example Miki, Misha (completely about her), and that blue and black haired girls in front of Hisao sitting place in class :)

Oh and mobile version for Android haha (dreaming)

Anyway :) I have 100% done but still missing last picture :P Well done guys, really heart stoping romantic storys!

Sorry for my English :D I prefer to read and translate ^^


Sorry for the offtopic ;)

ON TOPIC

Well, for me... only when I hear music from Katawa Shoujo I think about it.... because it's so simple, elegant, passionate with soul.

But if I must to choose... Maybe:

Damien Rice - 9 Crimes

Katawa Shoujo (Rin's route) made me want to listen to Z-Star in general. Not in the sense that I really like that artist and love listening to her, but as in: This feels like the right thing to right now.

Also:
Pink Floyd - Shine on you crazy diamond
Pink Floyd - Wish you were here
Rin - finished
Emi - finished
Shizune - finished
Lilly - finished

All the music is made by Nicol and Blue123 and Nicol is from Canada (at least I think he is).

Hisao: School of Seven Bells - Heart is Strange

My love, the heart is strange and dissonant
I know I should be happier now
Than I've ever been
But stillness weighs heavy and cold on my skin

Darling, you've got to shake this
Shape you've been drifting in
Oh I used to think that this rage was living
But that movement feigns a lull so deceiving
When nothing has changed in your life.


Hanako's Route: The Verve - Lucky Man

Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm standing naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?


--OR--

Keane - We Might As Well Be Strangers

I don't know your thoughts these days
We're strangers in an empty space
I don't understand your heart
It's easier to be apart

We might as well be strangers in another town
We might as well be living in another town
We might as well
We might as well
We might as well be strangers

Be strangers


Lilly's Route: Foo Fighters - Times Like These

I am a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky
To hang the stars upon tonight

I am a little divided
Do I stay or run away
And leave it all behind?

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
