Note: I was experimenting on a few of the icons so there is a reason why some of the coloring looks a little different from the other icons arounds them and why there are a few doubled pictures. I am also not really sure if I like all of them, but here you go. Please enjoy!

Now, I don't normally do pormotions but there are two new Pirate communities that could always use more memebers. And I recently became a mod for elite_help so I had to include the banner below.
rum_awards - A Pirates of the Caribbean Awards Community (we just put up voting for round one).
pirate_lims - A Pirates of the Caribbean Lims Community

He's A Pirate
Note: This fanmix does contain a few spoilers to Dead Man's Chest.
After seeing Dead Man's Chest I became hooked on the Jack and Elizabeth pairing. I'm not even really sure if any of the songs truly describe the pair, but with each song I have added a reason why I choose each song. Each reason is just my opinion. This is my first fanmix so thoughts on it are always welcome. Please comment if you take any of the songs. Also, if the links run out I will gladly upload them again. Each song has an individual link and at the bottom of the page there is a zip with all the songs.
1. [song] Jack Sparrow
[artist] Hans Zimmer
[lyrics] Instrumental
[reason] This song is purely Jack Sparrow, "Why is the rum always gone?"
2. [song] Ride
[artist] Cary Brothers
[lyrics] You are everything I wanted / The scars of all I’ll ever know // If I told you you were right / Would you take my hand tonight? / If I told you the reasons why / Would you leave your life and ride?
[reason] I think this song would apply to both of them. Where Elizabeth is wondering if she would let her past life go and stay with Jack? And in a sense I think it relates to Jack asking the same questions.
3. [song] Leave The Earth Behind You And Take A Walk Into The Sunshine
[artist] Ballboy
[lyrics] Walking home with the sun on your face / And we're drunk again, but you like it that way / Walking home with the sun on our face / And you're drunk again, but we like it that way / Are you happy with your life?
[reason] I think this song describes more how Elizabeth is feeling. The lyrics remind me of the beach scene in Curse of the Black Pearl and later of the Dauntless after she agrees to marry Norrington.
4. [song] Swallowed In The Sea
[artist] Coldplay
[lyrics] All the streets you're walking on / A thousand houses long / Well, that's where I belong / And you belong with me / Not swallowed in the sea
[reason] "Will you be saving her?" I think this song applies to two places. The first being when Jack saved Elizabeth in the beginning of Curse of the Black Pearl and at the end of Dead Man's Chest when Elizabeth leaves Jack to die aboard the Black Pearl.
5. [song] The Past and Pending
[artist] The Shins
[lyrics] Blind to the last cursed affair pistols and countless eyes / A trail of white blood betrays the reckless route your craft is running / Feed till the sun turns into wood dousing an ancient torch / Loiter the whole day through and lose yourself in lines dissecting love.
[reason] I don't really have an example for where this song applies to Jack and Elizabeth. In a way I think it describes their entire relationship.
6. [song] Other Side of the World
[artist] KT Tunstall
[lyrics] All the muscles tighten in her face / Buries her soul in one embrace
They're one and the same / Just like water // Then the fire fades away / But most of everyday / Is full of tired excuses / But it's too hard to say /I wish it were simple
[reason] I found this song more about Jack's feelings towards Elizabeth. I think it's more where he realizes that Elizabeth is like the sea but where society separates them.
7. [song] I Will Follow You Into The Dark
[artist] Death Cab for Cutie
[lyrics] If heaven and hell decide / That they both are satisfied / Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs // If there's no one beside you /When your soul embarks / Then I'll follow you into the dark
[reason] I think song is more about Elizabeth after she chains Jack to the Pearl. I think it deals with her decision to go to the end of the world and beyond in order to be with him.
8. [song] Try Again
[artist] Keane
[lyrics] But I was made the way I am / I'm not a stone; I'm just a man / Lay down your arms and I will lay down mine / Rip back the time that we've been wasting
[reason] Jack's POV showing that he is just a man and not an infamous legend.
9. [song] Paper Bag
[artist] Fiona Apple
[lyrics] 'Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up / I got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold / Hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to love / And I went crazy again today, looking for a strand to climb / Looking for a little hope / Baby said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine, / And a fail to kiss is a fail to cope
[reason] In Dead Man's Chest, Elizabeth's feelings after Jack fails to kiss her aboard the Black Pearl
10. [song] Gravity
[artist] Embrace
[lyrics] Honey, It's been a long time coming / And I can't stop now
Such a long time running / And I can't stop now / Do you hear my heart beating
Can you hear that sound / Cause I can't stop thinking / And I don't look down
[reason] I think this song plays on the time when both, Jack and Elizabeth, realize their feelings for each other.
11. [song] Bittersweet Symphony
[artist] The Verve
[lyrics] Well, I've never prayed, / But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah / I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah / I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now / But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
[reason] I think this song is more about the future. Where they think they know the outcome, but are unsure of where it will take them.
12. [song] The First Single
[artist] The Format
[lyrics] Well do you want to fall apart / I can't stop if you cant start / Do you want to fall apart / I could if you can try to fix what I've undone / Cause I hate what I've become
[reason] I have always loved this song, but last night while listening to the lyrics I realized that it could apply to Elizabeth. I think it describes her feelings on Port Royal society and how she feels, maybe, after meeting a certain pirate.
13. [song] So Says I
[artist] The Shins
[lyrics] you've had some / crazy conversations of your own / We've got rules and maps and guns in our backs but / we still can't just behave ourselves even if to save our / own lives so, says I, WE ARE A BRUTAL KIND
[reason] I think song kind of describes pirates in general. It's about living and going wherever, in an upbeat way.
14. [song] Bristlecone
[artist] Trace Bundy
[lyrics] Instrumental
[reason] I'm not actually sure how this song describes the relationship between Jack and Elizabeth. I do think, however, that the beat of the song kind of represents the roller coaster ride that makes of their relationship.
15. [song] Chocolate
[artist] Snow Patrol
[lyrics] You're the only thing that I love / It scares me more every day / On my knees I think clearer // Goodness knows I saw it coming / Or at least I'll claim I did / But in truth I'm lost for words
[reason] I think this song represents Jack wondering if he really loves someone as much as the sea and a small deal of Elizabeth thinking about regret.
16. [song] He's A Pirate
[artist] Klaus Badelt
[lyrics] Instrumental from Curse of the Black Pearl
[reason] "So this is where your heart lies?"
