"Skookum" Fanmix
For my dear lovely rebop13 who is one of the most amazing, supportive, sweet, talented, silly people around. And when your RL starts acting up, I ain't a happy Ella. So to commemorate the (almost) end of such a fantastic story and all the work you put into it, I made you a little soundtrack to go with it! It's compiled of songs either mentioned in the story (including one of the most beautiful covers of "Into the Mystic" I've ever heard), songs I listened to while reading the story, or songs that made me think of the story :) Hope you like, dear!

1. "Sweet Thing" by Van Morrison
And you shall take me strongly in your arms again
And I would not remember that I ever felt the pain
2. "Miracles" by Matt Nathanson
They dressed him up in rich man’s clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
3. "Fight Outta You" by Ben Harper
The lies you live become you
The love you lose, it numbs you
Don’t let it take the fight outta you
I would rather take a punch than not give you a shot
I’d rather find out who you are than who you’re not
4. "Let's Get It On" by Gavin Degraw
There’s nothing wrong with me loving you
And giving yourself to me can never be wrong
If that love is true
5. "These Days" by Nico
I had a lover, I don’t think I’ll risk another
These days, these days
And if I seem afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It’s just that I’ve been losing so long
6. "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" by the Rolling Stones
Help me baby, I ain't no stranger
7. "October" by Broken Bells
Keys are revving, there’s a dozen locks
Standing in your way
8. "Castles Made of Sand" by Jimi Hendrix
A little Indian brave who, before he was ten,
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
Many moons passed and more the dream grew strong
Until tomorrow he would sing his first war song
And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually
9. "Your Protector" by Fleet Foxes
As you lay to die beside me, baby
On the morning that you came
Would you wait for me?
The other one would wait for me
10. "Trees Get Wheeled Away" by Bright Eyes
‘Cause it hurts when you discover one’s worse and one’s better
To suffer or cause others to
11. "I Know" by Meaghan Smith
It shimmers through in the things you do
I know, I know, I know what you don’t say
12."Down In The Valley" by The Head and the Heart
I saw your face in the crowd and you came out
Just like the sun and the moon and the stars at night
I am on my way back to where I started
13. "Strange Kind of Mirror" by Birds & Batteries
And now you’re singing a song that I knew when I was young
We can only see ourselves
In the people that we love
And it’s a strange kind of mirror
14. "Dance With Me" by Griffin House
Don’t say goodnight, just say you know I’m coming back
Don’t say goodnight, I’ll be all right
Dance with me, make it hard to leave
Oh dance with me and I’ll believe
15. "Wonderful World" by James Morrison
And I know that it’s a wonderful world but I can’t feel it right now
Well I thought that I was doing well but I just want to cry now
I know that it’s a wonderful world from the sky down to the sea
But I can only see it when you’re here, here with me
16. "Living Of Love" by the Avett Brothers
Your heart says, “Not again,
What kind of mess have you got me in?”
But when the feeling’s there
It can lift you up and take you anywhere
17. "Into the Mystic" by Swell Season
And when that fog horn blows
You know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn whistle blows
I got to hear it, I don’t have to fear it
I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will flow into the mystic
