This probably isn’t on Spotify, but I wanted to mention it anyway because it fit the vibe of this AU:
Eleanor Forte Lite - Video Killed The Radio Star (Cover) by Olivia Meower on YouTube
Aside from the lyrics being very fitting (just switch ‘video’ and ‘radio’) I am absolutely in LOVE with how Eleanor Forte eerily sings the song. It gives me the impression that Eleanor Forte murdered Hatsune Miku to steal her title of #1 Vocaloid.
At 2:03 - 2:12 when Eleanor Forte says “Hatsune Miku? Never heard of her. What is she, some kind of virus?” only adds to that theory. Especially love how the audio gets distorted and staticky from 3:17 - 3:37
The art that accompanies it is phenomenal! How Eleanor Forte stares dead-eyed at the camera is chilling. I especially like the fallen and beheaded Miku figurines in front of the TV (the fact that it’s a 50s style TV is the cherry on top). The entire video just gives me a sense of unease and mystery, like there’s a bigger, more horrific story lying underneath, just like this AU!!!
I can totally picture Alastor saying something like “Vox? Never heard of him. What is he, some kind of virus?”
Gave it a watch, it’s neat. Yes, I imagine Alastor gets immense satisfaction out of all the recent arrivals in Hell having no clue who Vox is and even some of the older sinners starting to forget about him. Condemning Vox to his former greatest fear, irrelevancy, is delicious for Al. For a while, Vox being so out-of-it that he doesn’t even register that he was once one of the most powerful overlords in Hell is delightful for Alastor, but as time goes on, he realizes that Vox being unable to understand the slight just renders it plain-old boring.
Should probably make a YouTube version of the playlist for those of you who don’t have Spotify…

u should doooo bunny!reader x vox 🤭🔮
🔮anon is coming for everyone atp but i have the most perfect idea for this one !!
warnings: bunny!reader is sensitive, vox . . . is not the most reliable with being nice 24/7, not proofread, vox refers to reader as baby, valentino is his own warning, bunny is short as hell
Cry Bunny
“i’m just saying that the little conejita would make a ton of money” vox just blinked at valentino after that sentence. you were sitting on vox’s lap during one of the vee’s meetings. you didn’t much care for the conversations and you didn’t really pay attention to half the things they said. then again vox also distracted you anyway he could especially because when velvette was late, like today, valentino’s attention always was turned to you.
“you’re not making my girlfriend a porn star val.” your boyfriend sighed, you barely were able to be within a couple feet of valentino let alone be able to work with him. especially due to the fact that if you weren’t currently sitting on your boyfriends lap you would probably be freaking out over the fact you’re even in the same room as valentino.
valentino got up and moved from his seat on the other side of the board room table to one next to you and vox. he leaned over so he could be eye level with you, taking your attention away from whatever movie vox put on your phone to entertain you. “conejita, wouldn’t you like to be a star?” you just stared back at the moth before turning your gaze to vox which caused valentino to let out a sigh.
“see! she won’t even answer me she’s too worried about what her little boyfriend wants to answer” vox let out a sigh at this. “val. i don’t control her.” valentino thought for a moment before sitting back up and smirking at vox. “then hand her over. she obviously won’t answer without your opinion if she’s still with you.” vox rolled his eyes before sighing again. “val-” the moth immediately cut him off. “vox you know i’m right.”
vox made eye contact with you as you were still staring at him before picking you up and putting you on valentino’s lap which immediately caused you to reach back out for vox. valentino used one set of hands to move you so you looked at him and another set to hold your hips. “look at me little conejita.”
you looked at valentino, but not for long as your vision started to get blurry due to tears welling up in your eyes. valentino sighed “i forgot how much of a cry baby this little conejita is.” he picked you up and set u down on your feet right in front of vox. who expected you to immediately climb back onto his lap for comfort. but to his surprise when he reached out to you he was met with the sound of a thump.
vox did research on bunnies when he first started going out with you. one of the main things he learned is that when a bunny thumps it’s basically a big “fuck you”. he was glad you never did it to him before so you can imagine his surprise when you thump at him for the first time.
“baby.” your boyfriend said lowly. valentino pissed him off half the time to begin with, but now you thumping at him too? he tried to remain calm but his patience was thinning. “the little conejita has never thumped at me.” he was right, you never would dare thump at valentino, he scared you too much. vox scared you at times too, but you were still upset about him just giving you to valentino that you thumped at him again.
vox didn’t know what to do at this point, you were usually his well behaved little bunny that usually never caused trouble, he’s only needed to punish you once and that’s because he had caught you chatting with the radio demon. so he was quite surprised to see his baby bunny thumping at him. especially when he’s trying to calm down the crying that was still coming from you.
he took a deep breath before picking up your much smaller figure and bringing you back onto his lap. “hey.” he said in a stern but still comforting tone, it wasn’t until he noticed you not paying any attention to him that he got a little louder. “hey!” you immediately looked up at him sniffling.
he sighed before looking over at his business partner and signaling him to leave. “i’m trying to be nice to you here baby, but you’re making it hard when you’re not even paying attention to me.” he said it in his more comforting tone trying not to work you up more as he hates the sight of you crying. “what’s with the thumping? you don’t do that with me i thought?”
you shook your head trying to wipe away your tears but more just came flooding down afterwards “you gave me to valentino. i don’t like valentino.” he let out another sigh before kissing your forehead and pulling you into him. “i know baby, but the thumping is not okay. not with me okay? you wanna thump you can thump at valentino all you want.”
you shook your head again, why couldn’t he understand you were scared and he gave you to the reason you were so scared? vox stood up and set you down next to his chair. you looked up at him confused before you heard a thump. which caused you to just stand there confused.
“see baby? it’s not so fun to be thumped at hmm?” you shook your head at his comment immediately moving to try and get comfort again. grabbing onto his waist as it was level to your chest due to the height difference. vox sat back down and pulled you back onto his lap. “we done thumping now?” you nodded and vox immediately pulled you closer so that your head laid against his chest. “good because i have to deal with valentino being pissy all the time i don’t need my baby thumping at me all the time to add onto that.”
They forgot to tell him
Canon songs that would be altered in the RAMverse:
Stayed Gone – Obviously. The change could be as simple and Val and Velvette taking over Vox's part and the tone being less fun and more threatening, or something more complicated. They wouldn't be going on Vox's propaganda campaign though, they'd just be squaring up to fight before Al starts taunting them over the radio. Might just stay between them and Al, but it could be fun to give Vox a chance to sing too, probably with Alastor.
It Starts With Sorry – Pentious isn't immediately caught in RAM, so if ISWS happens, it's months down the line. Would probably change significantly, since he chooses to defect from the Vees and might be willingly coming clean to Charlie.
Respectless – Val gets a guest verse since he decided to actually show up to the meeting on the off chance Alastor decided to show his face. His part is somewhere in between "bigging up Velvette" and "just straight up threatening Husk."
Finale – Vox is still a part of the hotel crew and sings with them during their verses. Val and Vel might be celebrating Alastor's supposed defeat and preparing to go rescue Vox (until Alastor shows back up at the last minute), or their part might be more serious, like Al's monologue.

Perhaps "I'll sleep when I'm dead" by Set It Off for the playlist?
Oh yeah, that fits!
I'm stuck between the ideas of Vox being able to be shut down by someone else and just... not. If he can't be shut off, then yeah, he'd probably barely sleep– too much nervous energy and the memory loss makes it so he just keeps getting up, forgetting that he's supposed to be trying to sleep. In those situations, he'd definitely need someone there with him to keep him still.
...Maybe that's the compromise between the two ideas? The flatscreen doesn't have an easily accessible off button, but the retro model does? ...We were talking about a song here, weren't we?
This verse gave me a very vivid mental image of Vox on a "I'm completely dissociated from my body and still conceptualize myself as human" day; his human self and demon self are stuck staring at each other and Vaughn fucking hates what he sees.
