The Super Ultimate Fandom Playlist For Musical Nerds: Part 1

This is part of a playlist I have been developing over the past year or so. No reason for it, it's just fun to do. I don't think probably any of the songs match perfectly with their respective characters, but I don't care. Also I didn't do every single character, because life is short and I'm hungry.

Some of the songs are meant to be sung from the characters' perspectives, some of them are to be sung as if the song's character is speaking to another character, some of the songs merely describe their characters, and some of them are to be sung as if a different character was talking to the song's character. I'm not going to explain all of each song because I don't want to. All you need to know is that each song is right for its character because I declared it so and I am right.
