Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode - Apparently this song is about a great friend can be like a 'personal Jesus' to you, and I think Clark could be that kind of person. A lot of the specific lyrics seem to fit this well.Ĭool Kids by Echosmith - I imagine Clark singing this about trying to fit in society when he's such a different kind of being, or something like that.Ĭome As You Are by Nirvana - I misheard 'old memoria' as 'no memory' and associated with an episode of the Adventures of Superman where there was a drug that made people lose their memory, and the lines about not having a gun with an episode where Clark Kent held his finger against a man's back pretending it was a I really reach to associate songs with Superman.Ĭomplicated by Avril Lavigne - Lois Lane talking to Superman about his secret identity making their romance more complicated than it need be. But to make this more interesting, I'll say that I specifically imagine this to be about Superman/Clark's relationship with Lois Lane, and how in certain a sense she's his real greatest weakness.

Kryptonite by Three Doors Down - Err, no surprise here, lol. The rest of the lyrics are about youth gang violence, which also fits because in the era there were stories about that same topic. Specifically, in the early post-Crisis era when Clark was dating Cat Grant, I remember one occasion when he tried to interfere with Cat's custody issues with her son and it was kind of a mess, and I felt like it was a possibly questionable decision to use his Superman identity to meddle with a situation with his girlfriend. I think of the line 'You gotta keep 'em separated' as referring to keeping his civilian and superhero lives separated.

Misunderstanding by Genesis - The vibe of this song just really matches a 'Clark Kent pining over Lois' mood to me.Ĭome Out and Play by The Offspring - OK, this is a weird one. Most of the rest of the lyrics don't actually make sense with this, granted. I saw a Batman thread like this, so I decided to start a Superman one since associating songs with Superman is a really common occurrence in my mind, since sometimes I just think about Superman too much! Some of these associations are weird or even nearly inexplicable since I just like associating Superman with random things.Įverything You Want by Vertical Horizon - I think of it as being about the Clark Kent and Superman love triangle with Lois Lane, due to the fact that it switches from 'he is everything you want' to 'I am everything you want' at the end.
