Oh, is that what that song is called? I know the chorus and bridge from a medley by Anthem Lights.
Anyway, yes, I can see how you think of LB. 😀

Found "Just be Held" by Casting Crowns last night and it made me think of Peter and Susan in LWW.

don't know I
f this has been mentioned or not but "Holding On" By Jamie Grace reminds me of Lucy during PC when she sees Aslan but no one believes her.

Mandisa's "What Scars Are For" seems fitting of Aravis.

I've got a list probably hiding somewhere, but I need to be heading off to bed so I'll just two songs "Beautiful Ending" By Barlow Girl. (Also "You are Loved." by Rebecca St. James sometimes makes me think of Lucy and Susan.

Brave Souls by Cozi Zuehlsdorff reminds me A LOT of Narnia.

So... I'm thinking that there should be a second Christian Narnia CD. With this song on it. Thanks for bringing it up, Jaygee!

So I was listening to random piano pieces, and there was this one, Nuvole bianche by Ludovico Einaudi that for some reason made me think of The Last Battle, or maybe just Narnia in general. But seriously, if you can find it, go listen to it. It gave me all these feels. :mrgreen:

Listening to Anthem Lights' "Give Me a Lifetime" and it's making me think of Caspian and Lilliandil:
"Give me a lifetime
That's all that I'm asking for
Give me a lifetime
Not a second less, not a moment more"

I would add, just about anything by Audiomachine. Their song "Creation" makes me think of Aslan's resurrection.

Lots of songs by the Hungarian band Misztrál (you can find them on YouTube) sound like something that could be played in Narnia to me. It helps that a) I only understand snippets of the language (and what I understand is often Christian in some way...), b) they only use acoustic instruments and tend to have medieval-like or renaissance-like melodies and harmonies. Some songs are wild and faun-dance-worthy; some are contemplative and moving.

I don't think there usually are songs that remind me of Narnia with their lyrics, although there may be some I'm forgetting about. It tends to be the music itself that puts me in a mood, Narnian or otherwise.

EDIT: Phew, and I was listening to it today, how did I forget?! "Redbud Tree" by Mark Knopfler is such a perfectly Narnian song; I always imagine a small Beast or Bird.

"Hunted down, I came upon
A place of ferns and grass
Gathered to a redbud tree
And now their footsteps pass
Where I crouch in dread
Discovery my certain death
Her leaves reaching for my head
As I suspend my breath

Redbud tree, shelter me, shelter me
Redbud tree, shelter me, shelter me

Those days of fear are gone
Yet I am pledged to her
As to my only one
My lovely protector

Redbud tree, shelter me, shelter me
Redbud tree, shelter me, shelter me"
