truepenny: artist's rendering of Sidneyia inexpectans (Default)
[personal profile] truepenny
I have a head cold, which I am blaming for the following weirdness.

[livejournal.com profile] mirrorthaw put in Peter Gabriel's greatest hits album, Hit, this evening, and as I always do when I hear it, I thought, "Man, 'Solsbury Hill' so has a story in it." But this time, the other songs ganged up and gave me one.* It's a YA sf semi-dystopian thriller/romance/bildungsroman (reluctant psychics! teenage soldiers! true love!), and my question to you is:

[Poll #1476892]

Of course, I reserve the right to ignore the poll results completely, but I'm curious.

*For the record, the playlist is:

"Jeux sans frontiers"
"Shock the Monkey"
"More than This"
"Solsbury Hill"
"Burn You Up, Burn You Down"
"Digging in the Dirt"
"Growing Up"
"Don't Give Up"
"Sledgehammer"
"More than This" (reprise)

I don't actually mean romance in the technical sense (which is to say, I'm not interested, in this particular instance, in romance tropes). I mean that part of the story is the two main characters learning to love each other.
