Remember Me Fanmix
I know I should be posting new icons. I will soon plus a few new texture sets. But I wanted to post this so badly. It's been sitting in computer for months now because I haven't had the time to post it.
Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler.............................................. I read the script to Memoirs/Remember Me several months back and was moved to tears. It's such a well written profound script and it never leaves my thoughts. I can't wait till the movie comes out. I hope they don't change too much especially the ending. And they also better leave in the EZ Bake oven and "The Slut" among other ones. This is made from the script so there might be things that are different from the movie.
1. The Only Living Boy in New York
Simon & Garfunkel
Hey, I've got nothing to do today but smile.
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da here
I am The only living boy in New York
Half of the time we're gone
but we don't know where, And we don't know here.
I just really like the vibe of this song.
I can see Tyler walking down the streets of New York City smoking a cigeratte.
2. Sad Woman Blues
Bobby Long
This is Ally's song. She's living her life with the constant reminder of her mother's murder and a grieving overprotective father.
[ALLY
It's always about her, dad....
SERGEANT CRAIG
That's enough.
ALLY
It's always about her, everything
we do and don't do is about mom...
SERGEANT CRAIG
That's enough, Allison.
ALLY
She's dead, dad. You have to--
SERGEANT CRAIG
I said that's enough.
SMACK! He slaps her, hard. Silence. Ally stands there holding
her cheek, tears welling. Craig looking at his hand like he
can't believe what it just did. No one moves or speaks.]
3. Loneliest Girl in the World
Cary Brothers
You Are The Loneliest Girl In The World
Taking Your Hits As They Come
You Are The Loneliest Girl In The World
And Tonight You'd Fall For Anyone
This reminded me of little Caroline. She lost her oldest brother, her father ignores her, she doesn't have many friends at school. Her only joy comes from her brother Tyler whom she worships. Tyler is the only one who sees her and understands. This song can also be Ally's song as well.
4. Sometimes I Forget
Loudon Wainwright III
No, we can't meet for lunch at the usual place
The place where we always would go
And there was something I wanted to tell you so bad
Something I knew that you'd want to know
I could go by myself to our old haunt
That seems like such a strange thing to do
The waiters would wonder what was going on why weren't you there,
where were you
Why weren't you there,
where were you
Very sad song. Tyler still grieves for his brother. He even goes to the same diner they used to go to together.
5. Four Kicks
Kings of Leon
You with your switchblade posse,
I'll get my guns from the south,
We'll take to the yard like a cock fight
Four kicks who's strutting now?
This party is overrated,
But there ain't shit else to do
Great song about a fight. Perfect for the fight Tyler gets into with the tunnelers.
6. All My Days
Alexi Murdoch
Just a great song I thought fit Tyler's journey.
7. So Long My Brother
David Rice
I was only and I was afraid
I was the promise we used to make
He was the dreamer, he had it made
He was the mirror, I was the face.
So long my brother.
So long my brother.
Another sad song. It reminds me of Tyler missing his brother and his need to put him on a pedestal.
8. First Day of My Life
Bright Eyes
Yours is the first face that I saw,
Think I was blind before I met you,
And I don't know where I am, I don't know where I've been,
But I know where I want to go,
And so I thought I'd let you know
A great song to begin with but I think it fits Tyler and Ally. Tyler had no intention of falling for Ally. She was just a way to get back at her dad for beating him up. But when he saw her and got to know her everything changed.
9. Falling Slowly
The Frames
I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Great song! Tyler and Ally getting to know each other.
10. Paperweight
Joshua Radin andd Schuyler Fisk
Been up all night staring at you
wondering what's on your mind
i've been this way with so many before
but this feels like the first time
you want the sunrise to go back to bed
i want to make you laugh
mess up my bed with me
kick off the covers i'm waiting
every word you say
This song makes me think of the ease they began to feel with each other. And how they were helping one another with their grief.
[The sheets have been torn loose from the mattress. Ally lies
asleep, curled in the comforter. Tyler lies awake beside her,
he smokes a cigarette, he stares out the sky just starting to
brighten seeming both content and regretful.
Tyler gets out of bed. Grabs his journal.]
11. Everything'll Be Alright
Joshua Radin
Way down, in New York town
Thinking about the way she loved me
There's a hole in my pocket
That's about her size
But I think everything
Is gonna be alright
Yes I hope everything
Is gonna be alright
How he felt after she forgave him.
[Tyler watches her lying there. Then whispers.
TYLER
If I said I love you... what would
you say?
ALLY
I love you.
TYLER
I love you too.
Tyler kisses her. Then heads out into the...]
12. Nothing Like You and I
The Perishers
We spent some time
Together crying
Spent some time just trying
To let each other go
I held your hand so
Very tightly
And told you what I would be
Dreaming of
There's nothing like you and I
Nothing like you and I
I threw this song in because I thought the lyrics fit Ally and Tyler.
13. Heaven Was Needing a Hero
JoDee Messina
I guess heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up
For what you believe
And follow it through
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero
Like you
This is Caroline trying to understand why Tyler was taken away from her. Tyler, despite it all, was pretty heroic when he wanted to be--helping the outnumbered kids who were getting bullied, standing up to his father over his sister, and the scene he made in his sister's classroom after a nasty girl cut Caroline's hair. He was Caroline's hero.
[Suddenly, Tyler grabs the desk. THROWS it through the air.
Pin-drop silence. The students sit paralyzed. Tyler stares at
the Chubby Girl. Her arrogance gone. She's been reduced to
the child she is. Tyler takes his place behind Caroline, who
stares up at him, awestruck.]
14. Remember Me As A Time of Day
Explosions in the Sky
Instrumental
