Notes on the mix: The relationship between House and Wilson is a multi-layered one. I can - and often prefer to - see the playful, easy camaraderie, filled with pranks and banter and genuine caring. However, there is also a darker side to their relationship that I find absolutely fascinating: the co-dependency, the lies and deceit, the seeming inability to truly give or accept what they really want and need from each other... This fanmix concentrates on these aspects of the House/Wilson relationship, the ones that are perhaps... less-than-healthy.
Notes on the cover art: Being completely hopeless when it comes to graphics, I wisely asked for help. Two wonderful ladies, Silver and Ruthy, answered my plea. They gracefully donated their talent, putting together two beautiful and distinct versions of cover art. You, the listener, are thus doubly spoiled. Please, please let them know how talented they both are.
Part 1 - House
01. Everything Is Alright by Motion City Soundtrack
Give me a reason to end this discussion,
To break with tradition, to fold and divide.
'Cause I hate the ocean, theme parks and airplanes,
Talking with strangers, waiting in line.
02. Hand In Glove by The Smiths
Hand in glove
The sun shines out of our behinds
No, it's not like any other love
This one is different - because it's us
03. Feel Like Rain by Motion City Soundtrack
We love that game but we never play
'cause we will lose and we wanna stay
the way we are
the way we've been for far too long.
04. Cowboys and Angels by George Michael
Cowboys and angels
They all take a shine to you
Why should I imagine that I was designed for you
Why should I believe
That you would stay
05. We’re Not Right by David Gray
Can't tell the bottle from the mountain top
And now my hands are shaking
But I just can't stop
Can't tell the bottle from the mountain top
No we're not right
06. Sour Times by Portishead
’Cos nobody loves me
It’s true
Not like you do
Part 2 - Wilson
07. Who By Fire by Leonard Cohen
And who by avalanche, who by powder,
Who for his greed, who for his hunger,
And who shall I say is calling?
08. Strange Relationship by Darren Hayes
Is this just a waste of time?
Keep acting like you own me
I keep running, watch me walking out that door
I hear you behind me
09. The Last High by The Dandy Warhols
And I have known love
Like a whore
From at least ten thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last
10. My Oh My by David Gray
It takes a lotta love
It takes a lotta love my friend
To keep your heart from freezing
To push on till the end
11. So Fast, So Numb by R.E.M.
You say that
You hate it.
But you want to recreate it.
I've played this round, I've played your lover.
I've played it out and to the hilt.
You’re coming onto something so fast, so numb
That you can't even feel.
12. Strange Affection by De/Vision
I'm serving you, I'm serving you
As a prey
I'm leaving you, deceiving you
Not today
I can feel no reaction
It's a strange affection
