I was so fortunate to get two mixes for my story, and both are truly exceptional! Don't forget to check out the link to the other when you're through here, if you haven't already.

The title itself is actually perfect for the fic! The mix is just so incredibly eclectic and wonderful. So, so awesome. Bands I know, bands I don’t. Bands I’m about to get to know! Lol. There are also bands on there that are mentioned in the fic, to really give it that soundtrack feel, which it really does have!
About the Cover Art
Look at Gerard’s gorgeous eyes! And the two boyfriends who love him! I don’t know why, but I never would have thought of using that. I would have done the two Gees. But this is so amazing! Thank you, tygermine!
Tracks That Stood Out
Numb: So, so, so, so Gee in the bar with his drink. Just perfect, and beautiful and haunting.
Open: How fun is this song? And the main line is "Open up my heart this time." HI, GEE, HI! Lol. Also, this:
So how can I not care,
about where we take this thing from here?
and this:
My mind has torn my heart in two
And though I know not what to do
I know that what I want is you
Yes.
Bad Karma: Makes me giggle, and yet totally fits. Awesome.
you took me outta my money
you messed up my love life and my career
you better believe in karma
guess it's gonna start getting weird right here
Fits perfectly, doesn't it? The whole song makes me laugh with gleeful revenge, but my favorite? Is this part:
You better believe in voodoo babe
I got a long list of your sins
There's a word you may have heard of
Called payback and I'm runnin' out of pins
I’ll be your Man: Frank’s POV, at least in my head. Which is awesome. I never would have thought to do that, and it speaks so well to Frank's patience in waiting for Gee to come around.
How You Know it’s Love: PERFECT SONG! Look at these lyrics!
I have to admit,
you make me giggle with your super sharp wit
and then I sweat when you get me unzipped
and I can't resist
If that isn’t our Frank and Gee, I don’t know what is. :)
Thanks, tygermine, for the amazing mix!
