Part 1
Part 2


I was lucky enough to get three amazing mixes from three amazing people. Be forewarned; from this point on, there will be much flailing and incoherency.

Mix by slashxmistress
Available for download here.

Track Listing:
1.Surprise! - Luscious Jackson
"One particular roll in the hay...It only takes one, to get the job done!"

2.Put Your Records On - Corrinne Bailey Rae
"Maybe sometimes we got it wrong- but it's all right"

3.Lucky - Jason Mraz
"Lucky I'm in love with my best friend"

4.Here's my Hand - The Elms
"You told me I was good enough to stand"

5.Rest Your Head - Tonic
"Trust- you know, is not such a dirty word"

6.Keep It Together - Guster
"We're singing a new song now and everything starts today"

7.Apples and Pairs - Slow Club
This one is just so Ryan and Z to me!

8.Asleep and Dreaming - Magnetic Fields
"I don't know if you're beautiful because I love you too much"

9.With A Little help from My Friends - Joe Anderson (Across The Universe sndtrk)
This one's pretty self-explanatory , yeah?

10.Isn't She Lovely - Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
Also probably self-explanatory and a really fun version ;D

Mixer's Note: I hope you enjoy it. It was a bit of a challenge for me- I
didn't want to use anything too sappy as the fic seemed very
understated about emotion- so I tried to capture that kind of
laisez-faire feeling-idk if I did but there you are <3

Author's Note: I love this to pieces, you've no idea. The quoted lyrics for explanation were so amazing and spot on. I just don't even know what to say. I could see where these songs fit with the story the first time I listened to the mix through, it's so fantastic. I especially adore "Isn't She Lovely", I can hear it in one of those end-montage scenes in a movie and it makes me beam. ♥

Author's Note: It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize the title referenced my fic, not going to lie. There are so many things I love about this mix. One being that, at first glance, there are things that made me turn my head sideways and wonder how it was going to work and two being that: it all works. The first song is so perfectly fitting in everyway. I love that you included Under the Sea and Decaydance Lullaby. Basically, everytime I listen to this, I feel an overwhelming amount of love for you and want to read my fic again. ♥

Mix by airporttags here.

3. This Mess We're In // Pj Harvey & Thom Yorke
4. I Know You Know // Empires
5. Apologize // The Honorary Title

Author's Note: Again, I have no idea how to express how amazing this is and how much I love it. The flow is so smooth, and the emotion really comes through in a complicated way that leaves me kind of mixed up similar to how I felt when writing this. Something I can clearly say is that all the songs are beautiful, and I really loved Space They Cannot Touch just-- "my favorite place is me with you" and "a perfect world lies next to me// now I don't need to sleep to dream" really, i want to quote the whole thing. Amazing, amazing. ♥
