.ZIP A little intro: A lot of the song choice for this mix at time have less to do with the lyrics but more with the fact that the songs sound like I think the relationship between Sif and Loki feels like. There's lyrical take to them that's a little hard and a little sad and a lot sultry which is not the word i want to use because what I'm thinking off is quietly sexy? Seductive, maybe? Sensual. They just have this feel of being so sharp and jagged but then there's a quiet edge that curves just so where they bend just so and that's where they fit together. That sliver of highlight just at the edge of shadow. The centre point to this fic is The Kills song "U.R.A. Fever" because when I heard it soon after seeing the film and shipping sif/loki all i could think was i want to make this their song and i want to make a fanmix for them with this song because when the song says you are fever, i am fever, we are fever it's like this inner monologue of their feelings I hear, and it looks like i did? tbh this mix has been sitting in my media library for months and months but I held off because I wanted to add it to my
het_bigbang but as writing it went in the end the fix doesn't fit the whole fic as much as fits for the couple, save the one song that I pretty much used as Sif's internal anthem. Also
pandoera asked for sif/loki for the tumblr meme so here I am giving a whole mix.
tl;dr! ENJOY THE MIX, FORGET MY WORDS!
01 | these trees | david's lyre*
over thrown
longing for the doves
that flit these trees
just to return
move to dust the flame
that flame these trees
i won't watch it buren
02 | playground love [air cover] | phoenix
your'e the piece of gold
that flushes all my soul
extra time on the ground
you're my playground love
03 | salt skin | ellie goulding**
i've got the salt skin
running to where he is
never going to give in
even with the strength
he's stealing salt skin
telling me i'm winning
04 | she | louie says
she bends and she bows
she's cold, but she melts like snow
she bends, she breaks
05 | U.R.A. fever | the kills
we are fever
we are fever
we ain't born typical
06 | sinister kid | the black keys
that's me that's me
the boy with the broken halo
07 | what starry eyes know (two door cinema club vs. ellie goulding) | neon hitch
i can tell just what you want
you don't want to be alone
you don't want to be alone
handle bard, then i let go, let go for anyone
take me in, and throw out my heart and get a new one
next thing we're touching
you look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
but you've known me the whole time
yeah, you've know me the whole time
08 | unbalanced pieces | soulsavers
i'm crawling mother, mother, mother, in vain
absent frame
the twilights kneeling
and the chessboard still has two unbalanced pieces
09 | night | zola jesus
come up close
come to me
coz in the end of the night i can feel you breathe
and i'll come closer to you
cuz in the end of the night when all we have is gone
yes in the end of the night when i can be with you
10 | in our nature | josé gonzález
open your doors
let down your gaurd
it's in our nature
11 | all i need | radiohead
i'm all the days
that you choose to ignore
you are all i need
you are all i need
i'm in the middle of your picture
lying in the reeds
12 | bloodstream | stateless
They can cut you open
And the silence surrounds you
and hunts you
I think I might’ve inhale you
I could feel you behind my eyes
*i couldn't find the official lyrics online so
