For Calabim:
Company,
Always on the run.
Destiny,
Is the rising sun.
I was born 6-gun in my hand,
Behind a gun, i make my final stand.
That's why they call me...
Bad Company. And i can't deny,
Bad Company, til the day i die. til the day i die. til the day i die..

Rebel souls. Deserters we are called,
Chose a gun and threw away the sun.
Now these towns, they all know our name.
6-gun sound is our claim to fame.
I can hear them say..
Bad Company, and i won't deny.
Bad. Bad Company, til the day i die. til the day i die..

Hey hey, Bad Company, i can't deny..
Bad Company, til the day i die.
It's Bad Company. Oh yeah yeah.
Bad Company, til the day i die.

Tell me you're not a thief, oh but im bad company.
It's the way I play. Dirty for dirty.
Oh somebody double crossed me.
Double cross
Double cross
Yeah, we're Bad Company
Kill in cold blood...

"Bad Company" Bad Company

From an Angel, to a Fallen friend:
So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

"Wish you were here" Pink Floyd

The first Malakim:
This bloody road remains a mystery
This sudden darkness fills the air
What are we waiting for?
Wont anybody help us?
What are we waiting for?
We cant afford to be innocent
Stand up and face the enemy
Its a do or die situation
We will be invincible

This shattered dream you cannot justify
Were gonna scream until were satisified
What are we running for?
Weve got the right to be angry
What are we running for?
When theres no where we can run to anymore

We cant afford to be innocent
Stand up and face the enemy
Its a do or die situation
We will be invincible
And with the power of conviction
There is no sacrifice
Its a do or die situation
We will be invincible

Wont anybody help us?
What are we running for?
When theres no where, no where we can run to anymore

We cant afford to be innocent
Stand up and face the enemy
Its a do or die situation
We will be invincible
And with the power of conviction
There is no sacrifice
Its a do or die situation
We will be invincible

"Invincible" By Pat Benatar

A typical day in the life of a Shedite's host:

Early one morning while makin' the rounds,
I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down,
Shot her down and I went to bed,
I stuck that lovin' . 44 beneath my head

Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun,
Took a shot of cocaine and away I run ...


"Cocaine Blues" by T.J. "Red" Arnall (and popularized by Johnny Cash)

For any Renegade demon seeking Redemption, though it seems to fit ex-Media servitors best in context:

Heaven, I need a hug
Is there anybody out
there willin' to embrace a thug
Feelin' like a change of heart
And all I really need is a
sign or a word from God
(Please shower down)
So shower down on me, wet me with your love
(Yeah)
I need you to take me and lift me up (Oh...oh...yeah, yeah, yeah)


-- R Kelly, "Heaven, I Need a Hug"

The opening verses of this seem made for a Djinn:

Some people stay far away from the door, if there's a chance of it opening up,
They hear a voice in the hall outside, and hope that it just passes by,
Some people live with the fear of a touch, and the anger of having been a fool,
They will not listen to anyone, so nobody tells them a lie ...


--"Innocent Man," by Billy Joel.

Another good one for Djinn is "Comfortably Numb" by pink Floyd, particularly the end:


There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

This song has a very strong IN flavor for me, althuogh I can't peg any specific choirs/bands in it:


HE HAD A VISION OF ANNE MARIE WITH A ROSARY IN HER HAND
SO ITS EXIT THE RAINMAKER,- THAT OLD GREY FLANNEL MAN...
WITH A CLOSET FULL OF BUSINESS SUITES, AND A LETTER BY THE PHONE,
HE SAID “I’M ON MY WAY TO PARADISE, TO SEE THE ANGEL OF LYON.......”


THEN HE CAUGHT A TRAIN IN BRUSSELS, HE ORDERED COGNAC AND CROISSANTS,
AND HE MADE A MENTAL LIST OF THINGS HE OWNED BUT DID NOT WANT,
ALL THE BUILDINGS AND THE REAL ESTATE, THE ANTIQUE GLASS AND STONE,
HE’D TAKE A VOW OF POVERTY TO SEE THE ANGEL OF LYON...


AND HE SANG AVE MARIA, AT LEAST THE PARTS HE KNEW...
AND HE WATCHED THE SHADOW OF THE TRAIN
ON THE TOWNS THAT THEY ROLLED THROUGH...
AND HE CLOSED HIS EYES AND SAW TWO RIVERS
THE RHONE AND THE SONNE..
THE MALE AND FEMALE SPIRIT OF THE CITY OF LYON.......


THEN HE WAITED ON THE BRIDGE, WHERE THEY MET THE YEAR BEFORE...
AND THE DAYS TURNED INTO WEEKS TIL THE SEASONS NUMBEREd FOUR,
AND HIS CLOTHES GREW WORN AND RAGGED AS THROUGH THE STREETS HE ROAMED,
SEARCHING EVERY OPEN WINDOW, FOR HIS ANGEL OF LYON.....


AND HE SANG “AVE MARIA”, AT LEAST THE PARTS HE KNEW,
AND HE WATCHED HIS SHADOW ON THE WALLS OF THE STREETS HE WALKED THROUGH,
AND HE CROSSED THOSE SACRED RIVERS, THE RHONE AND THE SONNE,
BUT THEY WOULD NOT GIVE HIM THE SECRET, OF THE ANGEL OF LYON.....


NOW THERES A THOUSAND CANDLES BURNING IN THE BASILICA TONIGHT,
WHERE SISTER EVE MARIA IS THE KEEPER OF THE LIGHT....
AND DOWN A DREAM OF ALLEYWAYS WALKS A SAINT OF RAG AND BONE,
A MADMAN TORN ASUNDER, BY THE ANGEL OF LYON......


AND HE SANG “AVE MARIA”, AT LEAST THE PARTS HE KNEW,
AND HE WATCHED HIS SHADOW ON THE WALLS OF THE STREETS THAT HE WALKED THROUGH....
AND HE CROSSED THOSE SACRED RIVERS, THE RHONE AND THE SONNE,
BUT THEY NEVER GAVE UP THE SECRET OF THE ANGEL OF LYON.......

"Angel of Lyon" By Tom Russell and Steve Young

I may not be able to peg a particular Choir, but I know exactly which Word-bound it's about...
