I have no idea if this is in the right section, but here we go =) I was wondering, are there any songs that remind of you Anne? I know, it sounds like a tall order – what song could possibly be beautiful enough to capture Anne's spirit, describe the complex person that she was, especially when so much of her inner life is hidden from us? But I've found a few songs that remind me of her, and I'd love to share them with you all. =)
Now we are free ~ Gladiator soundtrack

The other day, I thought of this piece of music, and found myself thinking, “Anne!” It really makes me think of the lead up to her death, and her certainty that she was going to a better place. And then, by a strange coincidence, I actually found a fanvideo for Anne with this song, so obviously I'm not the only one who associates this music with her. =D And so tonight, I've just finished writing a story entitled “Now we are free”. It's about Anne's execution, and I listened to this music all the way through writing it; it was a real help, being so inspiring! <3

I'm not sure exactly why it makes me think of Anne, it just does! =) Very inspiring, very epic. I guess it makes me think of the times she lived in, and the problems she faced in her life.

This song makes me think of the happy times in Anne's life, the times where she felt on top of the world, as if she could never hope for more!
So, if there are any pieces of music/songs that make you think “that's Anne!” just post them here

Heroine, have you heard Now We Are Free(Juba’s Version)? not really Anne-related, but I like that version even more. In the film it’s essentially the music Russell Crowe hears when he dies, and there is an African-tinged version for Djimon Honsou’s character that I LOVE.
As far as Anne Boleyn, I’ve said it before but I am always reminded of her when I hear Coldplay’s Viva la Vida.

I can just imagine this playing at court when Henry and Anne were together and happy.

Meet me on the other side…when the Earl of Leicester (“Sweet Robin”) realizes he will never marry Elizabeth 1st all he can hope for is they will be together in heaven. The ghosts crawling on their skin includes Elizabeth's mother Anne Boleyn.

This sounds bad at first, but really it's not! has anyone heard the song 'bitch' by Meredith Brooks?…well it really reminds me of Anne Boleyn because it's as if I could picture her singing it as it's basically about a woman who is saying 'I can be very fiery at times and strong willed but I'm also emotional and sensitive-but that's me and I'm not going to change'
There used to be a fantastic fan vid featuring scenes of Anne from 'The Tudors' with this song on youtube but I can't find it…think it may have been taken off, or the music was taken off.

I downloaded that video before it disappeared. If you want to PM me an e-mail address, I could try to send you a zip file of it.

“The Last Mission” by George Fenton.
It's from the 1989/90 film soundtrack Memphis Belle, it's about the USA B17 aircraft called the “Memphis Belle” it flew an historic 25 missions. The film is about bravery which makes me think of Anne and how terribly brave she was. The music is passionate and very emotional and for me a very fitting tribute to Anne Boleyn.
