Twister City: Season One OST
No, seriously this time. I even did cover art.
1. Ludo - "Topeka" (opening theme)
I found God in a catalytic converter in Topeka on a Monday night
Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future
So you know what keeps me hangin' around
No you can't keep a good man down
2. Tom Waits - "Shake It" (from 1x01 - "Stormbourne" [The music sounded a bit too much like a confused marching band being wrung through a steam engine for Cain's liking...])
You know I feel like a preacher waving a gun around
Shake it, shake it. shake it baby!
3. Bjork - "Earth Intruders" (from 1x04 - "Balance Struck" [The perp, of course, turned and ran. She cursed and followed.])
With our feet thumping
With our feet marching
Grinding skeptics into the soil
4. The Killers - "Shadowplay" (from 1x07 - "Needs And Misdeeds" [Topeka had a pulse, one just needed to grope around a bit to find it.])
To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you
5. Depeche Mode - "Enjoy the Silence" (from 1x09 - "The Crooked Frame" ["Just have to stay one step ahead."])
Words are very unnecessary
They can only tear apart
6. Shiny Toy Guns - "Le Disko" (from 1x12 - "Glam" ["Tacky" was putting it mildly.])
So what's it gonna take?
Silver shadow believer....
Spock rocker with your dirty eyes
7. Badly Drawn Boy - "Everybody's Stalking" (from 1x12 [There were bad ideas, there were horrible ideas, and then there was this idea.])
It might take a little time
Got all the time we need
I'm not here to try and fool you
Just trying to break down through you
8. Bob Dylan - "Subterranean Homesick Blues" (from 1x13 - "Z" [First of all, he was a business man who very much enjoyed his work.])
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows
9. Azure Ray - "Don't Make A Sound" (from 1x14 - "Like A Lion" [She'd lost everything in those months when she lost herself.])
The sun is out but happiness
Only reminds you of the people you hurt
Mistakes that you made when you were down
10. Jimi Hendrix - "Are You Experienced?" (from 1x17 - "By A Thread" ["No, you've gotta hear this in stereo."])
If you could just get your mind together
And then come on across to me
11. Arcade Fire - "Wake Up" (from 1x21 - "A Storm Is Coming, pt. 2" [The four of them descended the capitol steps as unlikely heroes.])
Children, wake up
Hold your mistake up
Before they turn the summer into dust
12. Kansas - "Dust In The Wind" (bonus track)
Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy
...the degree to which I need to shut the hell up about all of this is absurd.
