Thanks everyone for the multiple thousands of songs submitted to help me Pick The Song For Eclipse! I assure you, I had a wonderful time digging through all the suggestions, especially when many pranksters suggested songs like There’s A Tear In My Beer by Hank Williams Jr. or Millionär by Die Prinzen (I have a feeling I know who sent THAT one in…) 😀
Anyhow, I added up the top requested songs, and have put them in the voting box below. Please only vote a maximum of 3 times (I know, sometimes it’s hard to pick just one!). There are a few surprises amongst this list, though thankfully no one got too outlandish:
You can talk about what songs you’re voting for in the comments. That reminds me. Like with Round 1, I’m also giving away a prize to someone who comments here: one custom-made T-shirt from TwilightTShirts.com (you’ll even get to pick the design)! Good luck!

Fall for you!!!!!! the line is perfect ‘this is not what i intended. i always swore to you i’d never fall apart. u always thought that i was stronger. i may have failed but i have luved u from the start” u guys all no it fits, dont even lie…. 🙂
i didn’t know any songs except for 4. i picked earth to bella.i thought the millionar song was nice. the video was interesting…:)
I love the song Broken by Lifehouse, and it was so perfect. I didn’t even think about it at first, but it really fits well. 🙂
So, are you sad to see this book end, or super ready to get to Breaking Dawn?
Vindicated.
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in, winding out
The shine of it has caught my eye
And roped me in
So mesmerizing
So hypnotizing
I am captivated
I am
Vindicated
I am selfish, I am wrong
I am right, I swear I’m right
Swear I knew it all along
And I am
Flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now
The things you swore you saw yourself
So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intention
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so
Isolated so
Motivated
I am
Certain now that I am
So turn
up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment for forever
Defense is paper thin
Just
One touch and I’ll be in
Too
Deep now to ever swim
Against the current
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me slip away
My hope
dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption…
its so hard to choose! 😀
vindicated, Vindicated, VINDICATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EVERYONE!! REMEMBER WE ARE PICKING THE SONG FOR “ECLIPSE” NOT FOR “NEW MOON”
SO DON´T CHOOSE ONE THAT FITS THE “NEW MOON” BELLA & JACOB RELATIONSHIP!
yep, some of those songs are more “New Moon-type”.
it is hard to choose (good thing we can vote 3 times!)
I picked Fall For You. It is my all time favorite song ever!
THINKING OF YOU BY KATIE PERRY IS TOTALLY “NEWMONISH”, IT DOESN’T GO WITH “ECLIPSE” AT ALL
I picked falling for you because it’s such a good song and it fits really well too!
Despite the reaction to my vote from round 1 on the chat, I STILL believe milkshake is the best song for eclipse despite it lack of presence in round 2.
Think about it:
“My Milkshake Brings all the boy to the yard” – Bella defo brings a lot of boys to her yard including Jacob, Edward, and various school chums like Mike Newtown ( who pwns them all with his epic butt shaking in the movie)
And yes this song has a large amount of sexual undertones in it- but so does this book. Bella really came out of her shell and tried to go home base with poor prudish Eddy… 😀
This was my first time voting in one of these! That was hard but I did it! I voted!!! 🙂
I chose 2. I chose Fall for You by Secondhand Serenade… It reminds me of Jacob more than Edward though…. Especially the line “You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed, but I have loved you from the start.” Because Jacob thinks that with Bella making the decision to become a vampire means that his plan failed.
I also chose Vindicated.
I don’t actually think that “Thinking of You” by Katy Perry fits… I LOVE the song though, but when Bella kisses Edward, she’s NEVER thinking about Jacob. She sort of just stops thinking altogether. So yeah… That’s my opinion.
i haven’t heard the one by katy perry..but omg..the others, so hard to pick from. ended up voting for ‘fall for you’ though. i just love secondhand serenade.
I chose thinking of you and vindicated!
While I like a lot of them, Broken and Collide are actually my 2 favorites. 🙂
Comment 😀
I love hearing the “theme song” for the books. I usually end up buying them on itunes, if I don’t already have it 🙂
*comment*
Tryna win a t-shirt. 🙂
YESSS!!! 2 out of a million of the songs i suggessted are here! well, other people probably did too, but yay!
hehe and i love prizes too! 😉
<3
kay, i voted!
hey everyone ! who wants to win a t-shirt? Hmmm . . . ME 🙂
‘Thinking of You’ got my vote. I think it would have also fit New Moon very well though.
4 more days till the DVD of Twilight!! Anyone else scream when the commercial comes on???
Woot T-Shirts! Kaleb I love you.
Gah! You guys got me! Pressure is wayyy better for Eclipse.
I revoted.
Thinking of You is more New Moon.
For me, ‘Thinking of You’ is more New Moon…
‘Falling away from You’ is the best, but also ‘Vindicated’ 🙂
I voted for Vindicated 🙂
I voted for Broken by Lifehouse. The lyrics are absolutely perfect for the last few chapters of Eclipse.
I also voted for Collide, because that song always fits with the Twilight series. 🙂
Vindicated all the way baby!!!!
The lyrics are PERFECT for Eclipse.
🙂
I chose Thinking of You by Katy Perry. I loved the original music video, but the new one with the kid from Kyle XY is okay too. Both of them made me cry. Haha.
I’m craving bacon. Yummmy. But I’m at school and should be paying attention to my criminal justice class, so yeahh…
i love the choices! collide was a really great one, and pressure… still deciding on my third choice, i’m thinking Muse though. can’t wait til you start on Breaking Dawn!!!!!
well..!!
iLOVE fall for you and collide..they just seem to be PERFECT..!!.
and then Vindicated is awesome..!!
THat is my three votes.!!
and yes thinking of you and the others are more new-moon kind of songs..!
collide vindicated and fall for you..go brilliantly with eclipse.!
I loved that paramore song, for some reason I had never heard it. can’t wait to see which one wins! <3
ugh I do not like Katy Perry’s voice..
Definitely “Fall for You”!
Good picks, I haven’t decided what to vote for yet.
dashboard confessional. definitely.
Broken or Pressure are my 2 picks.
Earth To Bella all the way! I think it is perfect for this book.
That was a really hard decision! I think a lot of those songs would have been better for New Moon. But I made the choice to go with Pressure – because Paramore is my favorite!! – Collide and All Over You! : )
I think that brpken of the lifehouse is the best song for this book …that song is beautiful
i voted 3 times! once for collide by howie day and twice for fall for you by second hand serenade. that song goes great with the book….google the lyrics! it’s almost as if it was written for this book!
I heard the Katy Perry song after I had already submitted my choices. It is just perfect!
as much as i love thinking of you,muse,and fall for you i chose pressure because a)i love that song b)i love paramore and c)its PERFECT for Eclipse!!!i never thought about it b4 but it is lol!!
Loved MOST of the songs. Hadn’t heard a lot of them, since most of my time lately has been spend reading 🙂 I chose to go with Katy Perry, because the words just fit the most, out of all of them. Even though it’s not my favorite song, it fits this portion of the story the best. Thanks Kaleb!
I voted for:
1) Thinking of You. One of the first times I heard the song, I thought it would be perfect for Twilight.
2) Falling Away From You–the lyrics fit
3) Broken–I was surprised how well I could associate this with the series.
But yeah, there are many of these songs I could connect to the series as a whole, but not specifically Eclipse.
Ugh. This sucks.
I didnt like any of the songs.
So I just went for Fall For You.
Yea, im in a bad mood. I cant comment much on anything today 🙁
fall for u all the way!!!!! the song is PERFECT for eclipse!! i just started commenting on this hilarious website yeterday b/c of the prize, but i luv commenting and seeing wut other people think…. anyways, FALL FOR U!!!!!! (i luv this site about as much as twilight!!! its amazing!!!!!!!) 🙂
🙂
I liked Thinking Of You by Katy Perry and Vindicated by Dashboard Confessional… but I really think they fit ‘New Moon’ rather than Eclipse more.
It’s cool though 🙂 great job summing up the top 10 songs!
Awesome! I was really hoping that Paramore would make the second round … and it did! =D
Too bad Imogen Heap didn’t though…
*sadness*
So yeah. I voted for Pressure by Paramore. Great song. (And that was one I suggested for the first round. =] Yay!)
Oh, and by the way…
*insert comment here*
There. I’m entered.
