I thought this could be a fun exercise, let's post songs & then follow up with a campaign idea inspired by the song.
I'll start out with something easy, a true classic of contemporary music:

Someday when I get to do a Spelljammer-esque transdimensional adventure, I want to use The Sword's Warp Riders album for inspiration. Heck, you could build an entire campaign off of the world and story from that album.
"Warp Riders tells the tale of Ereth, an archer banished from his tribe on the planet Acheron. A hardscrabble planet that has undergone a tidal lock, which has caused one side to be scorched by three suns, and the other enshrouded in perpetual darkness..."
"The story of Warp Riders...follows Ereth as he discovers a mysterious orb and meets the Chronomancer, a being beyond time and space who enlists him in a quest to restore the planet's balance. Along the way he encounters strange warriors, mysterious witches, ancient androids, and a crew of space pirates with a vessel that will alter the course of history... a vessel known as, The Sword."

Yeah that's great! Wasn't the first Sword album supposed to be based on a D&D campaign? The lyrics definitely fit. A real challenge would be to find inspiration from bands that aren't heavy metal or prog rock! A campaign inspired by... smooth jazz?
