The Weird Sisters - B-Sides and Rarities, Vol. 1 by minnabird, Hypatia, eternalangel, the opaleye, Nagini Riddle, Kinnu, Al Clark

Summary: Welcome back to another rousing round of rambunctious rock!

However, a new act has edged into town and bumped olâ€™ Celestina off the stage for a two-night-only event. Rocking their way into the main event are the boys with the noise, the fellows with the cellos: The Weird Sisters!

Wrocking Wordsmiths out there have taken songs from many genres of rock (from light rock to metal, and everything in between) and give it a good Potter treatment to bring you songs that might make it on the Wizard Wireless Networkâ€™s rock station.

Story Notes: This is a compilation of challenge entries for the Great Hall Challenge of the same name. The next track will be released the following night. After that, hang on to your hats for Volume Two!

1. Born To Be Wild by minnabird [ - ] (126 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Born to Be Wild by Steppenwolf
Artist's/Author's Notes: This has been stuck in my head since I sang it at karaoke Thursday. Then I remembered this challenge. And I couldn't find a better title than the original.

This entry took Third Place in the challenge.

2. Curse Me With Your Best Shot by Nagini Riddle [ - ] (204 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Benatar
Artist's/Author's Notes: I love this song!

3. Wrock 'n' Rowl Hogwarts by Al Clark [ - ] (134 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Rock 'n' Roll High School by the Ramones
Artist's/Author's Notes: Of course more than half the words are new, 'cause "wrock" and "Rowl" are not the same words as "rock" and "roll". :-)

4. First Kiss by Hypatia [ - ] (261 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Last Kiss originally by Wayne Cochrane then by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers and Pearl Jam
Artist's/Author's Notes: Snapeâ€™s point of view. While I donâ€™t expect he was allowed in the house after Lily died, I think he could have obsessed over the idea of being there to say his goodbye.

5. Imagine by Nagini Riddle [ - ] (130 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Imagine by John Lennon
Artist's/Author's Notes: I have just been hearing this song practically every day, so it was time to apply it to the world of magic--obviously, the song is not about getting rid of differences, per se, but rather setting them aside and coming together as one people

6. We Give The Killers Names But You're The Worst Of All And I Wish I'd Never Met You by the opaleye [ - ] (250 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Morning Glory by Oasis
Artist's/Author's Notes: Er... warning for heavily implied drug use. This guy is obviously pretty broken-hearted and angsty.

7. Cursebreaker by Nagini Riddle [ - ] (220 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Heartbreaker by Pat Benatar
Artist's/Author's Notes: Bill is so dreamy...

8. Losing My Toad by Kinnu [ - ] (324 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Losing My Edge by LCD Sound system
Artist's/Author's Notes: It's a pretty tuneless and meaningless song, but I love listening to it! And I thought it fit Neville Longbottom perfectly when I was re-writing it...

9. Invincible (by Dumbledore's Army) by eternalangel [ - ] (221 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Invincible by Adelita's Way

10. Quidditch Wizard by Nagini Riddle [ - ] (225 words)
Original Song Title/Artist: Pinball Wizard by The Who Artist's/Author's Notes: Hypatia started this off for me, so credit must go to her for the original idea. I just helped complete it, so I am asking for joint Authorship on this, if that is okay.

This entry placed Second in the challenge.
