mixtape part 1: Merlin fandom
slashy_lady, I made new tag for mixers. ...Don't laugh too hard at my covers, I fail at Photoshop -_-
Two mixtapes, both for ArthurMerlin pairing.
Individual links are all in MF, the mixtape itself is in MU. The lyrics are in the zipped mixtape, and contains translation if the song is non-English. If you fall in love with one (or many) of the artists, I'm cheering you to buy their music ;D Tell me if the download is not working. Comments about what you think about the mixtapes will be loved ♥ I hope you enjoy~
For chaosmaka, prompt:"Who's the boy you like the most?". Spins it so that the songs told about wanting to be chosen by someone.

01. Love you Much Better - the Hush Sound

I can love you much better
If you can't see it you're blind
I can love you much better
And you know someday I'm going to make you mine.
02. To be With You - MR. BIG
classic, rock
Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
wake up who cares about
Little boys that talk too much
I've seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you
03. Birthday - the Bird and the Bee
indie, electronic
Hold on, hold on
Keep holding on to me
I will love you from the bottom
No one holds you better than me
Hold on, hold on
Doing the best we can
I will love you on your birthday
I will love you better than them
04. I Think You're a Contra - Vampire Weekend
indie, rock
Never pick sides
Never choose between two
But I just wanted you
Never pick sides
Never choose between two
But I just wanted you

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true.
Nothing that I wouldn't do.
Go to the ends of the Earth for you,
To make you feel my love
06. Let Me be the One - the Carpenters
classic, pop
Let me be the one you run to
Let me be the one you come to
When you need someone to turn to
Let me be the one
07. Let Me be the One - Sasha
pop
You are all I ever need
And I still wonder what I'd be
Without you to hold me when I call
Would I be anything at all
Sometimes I wonder what a fool I've been
please open up your arms and let me in
08. Dia Millikku - Yovie & Nuno
Indonesian, pop
dia untukku, bukan untukmu
dia milikku, bukan milikmu

let me get close to her

itai yo
mikata dakedo aishitenai to ka
mamoru kedo soba ni irenai to ka
nigai niritsuhaihan
ima sugu TACCHI MII
unmei naraba tsunagasete
kimi wa dare to KISU o suru
watashi sore to mo ano ko
kokoro yurasu kotoba yori
musekinin ni daite genkai
It hurts
I'm on your side, but you don't love me
I'll protect you, but I can't be by your side
It's a bitter self-contradiction
Immediately, touch me
When it comes our destinies, make them connect
Who will you kiss?
Me or that girl?
Rather than the words that shake my heart
I'll irresponsibly embrace the limit
10. Side - Run the Red Lights
indie, rock, alternative
Don’t go playing with my heart
I don’t know which side you’re on
I won’t keep waiting I can’t go on like this
I don’t know which side you’re on right now
For dyaoka, no prompt.
After pooling the songs, most of them could be fitted into one single story, so I decided to cut back some songs so it could form said story.

01. Entrusted Hope of the Dragons - Noriyuki Iwadare
instrumental, game soundtrack
02. Kyuuseishu (Savior)~ Hanashiro - Akiko Shikata
instrumental, celtic, game soundtrack
03. Not While I'm Around - Jamie Cullum

No one's gonna hurt you,
No one's gonna dare.
Others can desert you,
Not to worry,
whistle, I'll be there.
04. Knock Knock - Lenka
indie, pop
When life had locked me out I turned to you
So open the door
'Cause you're all I need right now, it's true
Nothin' works like you
05. They Long to be (Close to You) - cover by Gail Blanco
jazz
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
06. You Needed Me - Boyzone
90s, pop
You gave me strength, to stand alone again
To face the world, out on my own again
You put me high, upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me
07. Secrets - Good Charlotte
rock, punk
In the back
In the closets of your mind
That's where skeletons and dirty secrets hide
And I'll rip out my insides
And leave them on display for you tonight
08. In Between - Linkin Park
rock, alternative
Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to regain your trust was harder than it seemed
And somehow I got caught up in between
09. No Reply - voc. Steve Conte comp. Yoko Kanno
rock, anime soundtrack
Here lies my life
It never felt that real to me
You'll always mean so much to me
And there's no reply
And there's no reply
You'll never know how much you meant to me
10. War - Poets of the Fall
indie, rock
If I can let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field
When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me a reason to try
11. Black and Gold - Sam Sparro
electronica, pop
and the stars fell out of the sky
and my tears rolled into the ocean
now i'm looking for a reason why
you even set my world into motion
'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
'cause if you're not really here
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold
12. Exit Music (for a Film) - Radiohead

Wake from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today we escape
We escape
Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before all hell breaks loose
13. Dream of Another Time - arr. Mustin, comp. Yasunori Mitsuda
jazz, rearrangement, game soundtrack
14. What I Did for Love - cover by John Barrowman

Kiss today goodbye
The sweetness and the sorrow
We did what we had to do
But I can’t regret
What I did for love, what I did for love
15. I'll Hold My Breath - Ellie Goulding
indie, pop, electronica
Tell me that we're still too young,
That we're still too young and I'll hold my tongue
Until you see me in your dreams
We'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Thsoe fears we'll blow them all way
16. King of Fools - Poets of the Fall
indie, rock
Could you hold us up if I would drag us down?
Resurrect emotions from our past
N' if they had a king for fools would you wear the crown?
Build us up again and make us last
17. Remember Me - Edenbridge
symphonic metal
The writing's on the wall
You're by the way to fall
So take your final curtain call
Until kingdom come remember me
Take me back into the sheen
A bag of dreams one final reverie
The seamy side of life unseen
18. Finale ~Working Together - Allegro Vivace - Miwa Sato, comp. Yoko Shimomura
instrumental, piano, game soundtrack, rearrangement
