Queen of the Damned: A Narrative in Rock n’ Roll

Listen Here

---

So I recently realized that although the VC fandom has created so many great fan mixes and playlists, I don’t think I’ve seen anyone attempt to follow a cohesive narrative through music. So, I created the playlist that Lestat would have wanted all along: it tells the story of Queen of the Damned from the Lestat’s point of view, using Lestat’s favorite music: classic rock. Most of the songs are lyrically/tonally relevant, but a few of them are just for fun. Enjoy!

Songs 1-4: Lestat comes out of the ground, discovers rock music
Songs 5-7: Lestat writes The Vampire Lestat and reconnects with Louis before the concert
Songs 8-11: Lestat’s concert in San Francisco
Songs 12-14: Akasha’s arrival
Songs 15-18: Akasha teaches Lestat
Songs 19-22: Lestat questions Akasha’s authority/morality
Songs 23-24: Lestat witnesses Akasha’s downfall
Songs 25-28: The aftermath, self-reflection
