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

Yup, that's my thoughts, too...

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

Re: Narnia Songs
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.

Re: Narnia Songs
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"
"Give me a lifetime
That's all that I'm asking for
Give me a lifetime
Not a second less, not a moment more"

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

Re: Narnia Songs
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"
