sort of lost; songs for sherlock & john
A few words of explanation: Essentially this mix is the development of Sherlock and John’s relationship set to music - starting with John’s return to England and his first encounter with Sherlock, and culminating with the aftermath of the Fall. Initially I didn’t intend for the mix to be so Reichenbach-centric but it just sort of... happened (kind of like Sherlock and John’s friendship, I suppose!). Although, to me personally, the Fall is the pivotal moment in which we really see Sherlock and John show just how much they mean to one another to one another, so that the mix should focus on The Reichenbach Fall is probably quite apt.

Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within.

sort of lost
Overture: Gabriel Fauré - Pavane, Op. 50
[instrumental]
1. Ed Sheeran - The City
This city never sleeps / I hear the people walk by when it’s late / Sirens bleed through my windowsill / I can’t close my eyes
"nothing happens to me."
2. Muse - Knights Of Cydonia
Come ride with me / Through the veins of history / I'll show you how god / Falls asleep on the job
"the address is 221B Baker Street."
3. Lykke Li - Window Blues
But don't strain yourself for me / Don't break yourself for me / Don't lose your selfish ways for me
"I'm wasting my breath."
4. José González - Heartbeats
One night to be confused / One night to speed up truth / We had a promise made / Four hands and then away
"people might talk."
5. Noah and the Whale - My Door is Always Open
I will only, let you down / I will only, let you down / But my door, is always open / Yeah my door, is always open
"do you ever wonder if there's something wrong with us?"
6. Birdy - Shelter
Maybe I had said something that was wrong / Can I make it better with the lights turned on?
"I’ve just got one."
7. Mumford & Sons - Roll Away Your Stone
It seems that all my bridges have been burnt / But you say that's exactly how this grace thing works / It's not the long walk home that will change this heart / But the welcome I receive with the restart
"now people will definitely talk."
8. Florence and the Machine - Never Let Me Go
And it's over / And I'm going under / But I'm not giving up / I'm just giving in
"nobody could be that clever."
9. Tom Baxter - Icarus Wings
I'm too high, too close to the sun / I'm too high, my curious Icarus wings melt from my skin
"you could."
10. Warpaint - Elephants
I know that you're not here, that you're not here / Sort of lost without you
"I can’t go back to the flat."
11. Nick Drake - Cello Song
And if one day you should see me in the crowd / Lend a hand and lift me / To your place in the cloud
"you told me once that you weren’t a hero."
12. Laura Marling - Goodbye England (Covered In Snow)
You were so smart then in your jacket and coat / My softest red scarf was warming your throat / Winter will leave us, left the end of my nose / Goodbye old England until next years' snow
"I was so alone, and I owe you so much."
13. A Fine Frenzy - Whisper
But if you keep real close / Yeah, you stay real close / I will reach you
"one more miracle."
