Musical 'Shipping

[dazzledfirestar]

So I was chatting away with Leon today and she asked me to give her a song that related to my FF Sue for her new MSV:FF fic (just follow the link, it's fab!) and it got me thinking about how I use music to help me write. Now, I don't have specific songs picked out for each character, and I know a few of you do, and I don't have songs for specific storylines either. Then, it occurred to me... I 'ship musically. LOL I have songs for my pairings. Now, I thought, why not share my little revelation with my friends! (Disregard if you have a distaste for 'shipping... I'm an addict! :D) So there will be many cuts, and a small explanation of the ship (as most of them are OFCs) under each with the video and/or lyrics to the songs. :D Let's start at the beginning of the MSV craziness....

Azalea/Oliver
Gods I love these two. They bitch, they pick, they're totally irrational with each other, but there's love... wonder how long that'll last... lol

Try by Nelly Furtado
All I know is everything is not as it’s sold
But the more I grow, the less I know
And I have lived so many lives, though I’m not old
And the more I see, the less I grow
The fewer the seeds, the more I sow

Then I see you standing there, wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Then I see you standing there wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
Try

I wish I hadn’t seen all of the realness
And all the real people are really not real at all
The more I learn, the more I learn
The more I cry, the more I cry
As I say goodbye to the way of life
I thought I had designed for me

Then I see you standing there, wanting more from me
And all I can do is try
And I see you standing there
I’m all I’ll ever be
But all I can do is try
Try

All of the moments that already passed
We’ll try to go back and make them last
All of the things we want each other to be
We never will be, we never will be

That’s wonderful, that’s life
That’s you baby, this is me baby
We are, we are, we are, we are
We are free in our love
We are free in our love

Next on the list...

Haley/Piotr. Could they be any more perfect? Seriously? If it wasn't for all that emotional scarring... wait, you don't know about that yet... yes. They are the perfect couple. :D And no, it's not going to be Hot for Teacher. :P

Stop & Stare by oneRepublic
This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
"Never glance" is killing me
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see

They're trying to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
Something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, you don't need

What you need, what you need...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see...

And Lastly... *sigh*

Haley/Johnny... gods how I want that to work out... but really... nah... it won't. Or will it... *evil grin* And okay, so perhaps my choice of song for these two was ever so slightly colored by the loveliness of a certain actors lips... but I don't care. ;)

Lips Of An Angel by Hinder
Honey why you calling me so late?
It's kinda hard to talk right now.
Honey why are you crying? Is everything okay?
I gotta whisper 'cause I can't be too loud

Well, my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It's really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It's funny that you're calling me tonight
And, yes, I've dreamt of you too
And does he know you're talking to me
Will it start a fight
No I don't think she has a clue

Well my girl's in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It's really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It's really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

Honey why you calling me so late?
