Fanmix: An End Has a Start - An Exiles Soundtrack

Oct 22, 2008 21:05

I made this fanmix for sea_thoughts, author of the fabulous Sailor Moon fanfiction The Exiles. sea_thoughts is not only one of my very best fandom friends, but she is one of my favorite authors in any fandom. Her story takes the Shitennou redemption arc to a new and deeper level. The story unfortunately is not complete, but I'm certain that it's destined to become one of ( Read more... )

AHHH, oh my God!

Thank you sooooooooooooo much! Oh my God, I LOVE the Isamu/Rei song already, and I haven't even heard it yet! Also, I love your Usagi song, because it is so nice and the Usa/Mamo song is completely appropriate and OMG, the Xavier/Setsuna song is SO perfect... *babbles incoherently*

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Yay! I'm so happy you like it. :D I'm so sorry it was like a month late; I'd bought some of the songs on iTunes, so I wasn't able to distribute them until I got some blank CDs to copy them. This turned out to be a much bigger project than it should have been. ^^;;

Let me know what you think of the other songs!

Pieces of Sky - Beth Orton
First time I listened to this, I hardly realised it was on before it was over! Which I kinda take as a hint about the Isamu/Minako romance. :P It's a good description, though. Striving for a connection but the wrong one, and everything dissolving like clouds.

First Love Is Forever - Hourly Radio
I had never heard this before, but it's so epic and passionate, full of disappointment but the love remains. It reminds me a little bit of Sway, actually, in the sentiment, but angrier. People still drawn together by that memory and the wonder.

Liar, Liar - A Fine Frenzy
I was right, this is SO appropriate. "Sick and tired of this mad desire", yes, yes, definitely. Nothing changes, but the feeling is completely addictive, just like a siren song. And he would gladly drown in it, as he's done twice before. My own personal song for this relationship is I've Got A Fire In My Heart For You by The Super Furry Animals.

Love Is A Losing Game - Amy Winehouse ( ... )

Pieces of Sky - The song does have that quality. I also occasionally think of it and go, "Wait, what does that sound like?" and I can't remember until I go listen to it. I usually don't have that problem, and I find it weirdly interesting that my Minako/Isamu song is like that ( ... )

I think you wrote a little fic about them where coats or umbrella were mentioned in the narrative, and for whatever reason, that stuck with me, so I always associate them with those objects.

I think you mean this one: http://sea-thoughts.livejournal.com/13309.html#cutid4 And I'm so happy that little story lodged in your mind! They are appropriate items for the relationship, because they're both about protection.

Yeah... poor Ken.

I actually thought that as well, but it was still the best song for them I could find out of my stuff. And besides, Xavier is super nice (unlike his cousin).

I agree, it is hard to find a song that's just about pure friendship and it does describe him very well. He is a genuinely good man; not simple like Ken, Xavier has a lot of complications, but he also has a lot of tenderness and empathy in his heart.
