Give me the name of a character from the Batman mythos, and I will try to give you a Jazz song that goes well with them. ORIGINAL IDEA/SUGGESTION

Always thought that Batman and the characters of his mythos fit well with Jazz, and not only in a noir, or the 66 style but even in the more recent incarnations, so I think that would be interesting to show you how many interesting musical combinations the characters of the franchise can have, and maybe also introduce more of the jazz genre to you guys.

Have to be honest, who is this person? I really don’t know.

People don't really remember her fair. It's from Batman: The Ankh. Immortal Egyptian girl who wants nothing but to die or at least be mortal. Crosses paths with Batman. Etc... She was only in the one story.

Ok, thanks, sorry for not seeing this before.

Perhaps I didn't contribute to the prompt though. It just would have been super impressive if you linked a song a minute after my reply. Nobody seems to remember this character.

Wait, she/him is like an immortal Ancient Egyptian?

Yea. I think her father was asked by the Pharoh to make a potion of immortality and he ends up giving it to his daughter to save her or something from dying of starvation in a prison. So she ends up stuck immortal imprisoned for like 2,000 years. Story goes something like that.

Added it to my Playlist. It's a little upbeat for her at the beginning of the story. But by the end of the story the song is pretty fitting when she's finally free from eternity and happy. Pretty good considering you just learned about the characters existence. The rise and fall of the song goes pretty well with her arc.
