A-hoy those of the good ship GW!

... not that this relates to anything I may or may not be writing or anything, but what song do you think has been the most overused and abused in the GW fandom? I'm talking songfics, the song somehow incorporated into the fic, the GBoyz singing it, and what-have-you. Just ANY song that you have seen come up or been referenced to over-and-over-and-over in fics.

I, personally, want to say that it's either "I Knew I Loved You" by Savage Garden or "Don't Fear the Reaper" by Blue Oyster Cult.

If you had asked me three years ago, I could probably have answered this. The authors I read now rarely seem to write songfics. I'm totally blanking. Sorry!

Any linkin park song. -_-

I generally avoid song fics without hesitation, so cannot say. The only songfics I read (and write) are those which will use the song lyrics as a sort of guideline for the overall story -- like Blue's Falling Sideways, or my Bad Desire. And both of those songs wouldn't have been popular for song fics anyway! *grin*

Sorry, can't help you.

Y'know, I rarely come across GWing songfics. ^^;;

I'd have to say "3 Libras" by A Perfect Circle. But maybe I just noticed it because I'm a huge APC fan as well.
