Medium: Television
Fandom: Torchwood
Subject: Jack/Ianto
Title: A Thousand Years Time EP
Warnings: Major angst; Major spoilers for Children Of Earth.
Notes: My post-children of earth fanmix.






a thousand years time, you won't remember me.
yes i will. i promise.



future & a thousand years time;
translation - if i walk from the alive days/the sun and the moon behind me/i'll only need thoughts from my life/tears sorrowfully on my heart



the death;
it was used on the ianto montage in the children of earth declassified. the song was basically written for them. i can't help but get the feeling that james blunt knew about what happened somehow.



the death & future;
i made a video of this, without any knowledge of ianto actually dying. now it just makes even more sense.
'remember me.'



the death & future;
one of the first songs i always wanted to put in a fanmix, if i ever were to make one, post ianto's death. jack had left ianto in the past; it was ianto's turn to do the same, but he will never come back.



day five & future;
jack needs ianto but he is gone. i'm very certain that if ianto hadn't died jack wouldn't have used steven; he would've found another way, even if ianto did give his permission to do so. he'd have hope and stability, in which ianto was. he would do anything not to use his grandchild; ianto didn't break him. he'd be alive and there for jack.
ianto had just died and jack needed him, but he wasn't there. there was nothing else; he had nothing left to lose.



day four & five;
jack's numbness and the tradgedy of children of earth.
the song laces the events with anesthetic and makes you feel numb; it makes you imagine the quiet times between jack and ianto before it, and the end slowly brings you down and just breaks your heart all over again with an almost happy tune.



a thousand years time;
the song just fits jack. i think it's mostly because of the music and the vocals, but the lyrics help as much. and the title just screamed CHILDREN OF EARTH and JACK.



the past & a thousand years time;
it goes back to when jack and ianto met to ianto's death. i've seen new angles of their relationship with this song.
