This, perhaps, is not quite in line with the intention of this thread, since the music is not mentioned in a book, but I'll post it regardless. I've been reading Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, in which a young man is inspired to commit murder because he believes in the idea of the Übermensch. The idea also inspired this song, and since it's one of my favourites, I can't get it out of my head:
I'm not a prophet or a stone age man
I'm just a mortal with potential of a superman
I'm living on...
