i read that a few years ago but i've forgotten it..

if you give us an idea of the theme of each act, people could probably find you some songs.

sweet transvestite - rocky horror

for the scene in act 1 where macbeth decides to cross dress and seduce the king...

on a more serious not, you may want songs with the word 'blood' in it because the blood on his hands is a major deal.

Anything to do with guilt would work because that's what the play is basically about, and yeah, blood works well too.

Down With the Sickness - Disturbed

Cause MacBeth does start to lose the plot doesn't he?

What else? Um, yeah it would help if you could tell us the themes of each Act (i.e. the main ideas). It's been so long since I read that play.

^^ Be careful with that 'Down With The Sickness' song. It's a very catchy tune however the swearing in there is quite explicit.

From the end credits of 'Dawn Of The Dead' remake I believe.

For the witches scene, use "double trouble" from the 3rd harry potter movie, its the actual words from their spell

Macbeth doubts and stuff, maybe Lady Macbeth going insane- Ill Nino: I Am Loco.

Few swear words there though.
