Books and the songs that go with them.

I love reading a book with a song in mind, though here I'm just looking for songs specifically about a book or series, not just ones that fit.

I'll start with a few, post any you know.

It's part of a musical version of a book but I still put the two together.

Go listen to maiden's piece of mind. All of the songs on it are based on some sort of literature.
>Trooper is best song
>>Dune is best book

I wouldn't say the song reflects the book much at all, but I thought about it while reading a lot, especially when it was the painter's or Mrs. Ramsey's perspective.

What I really like about the Liszt one is that it honestly isn't even that amazing or too exciting with sudden drops in dynamics or tempo that ebbs back in forth, it's just really good background music to read to
