Lost Fan Mix: Darkness/Light

Apr 02, 2010 15:45

My first ever fan mix, and why of course it's for LOST! Lots of spoilers for season six episodes.





Darkness/Light: A LOST fan mix inspired by Jacob/the Man in Black




Both of these characters are are so mysterious that the upcoming final episodes of LOST may make this whole mix nonsense or true in LOST opposite world, but for now it's only partly nonsense.
Along with the track list, I included a few LOST quotes (thanks to Lostpedia) and brief notes to explain why I picked some of the tracks.

One side is Dark the other Light!

Side One - Darkness

1. "Meet Ze Monsta" - PJ Harvey

Obviously for this lyric:

Big black monsoon/Take me with you

Man in Black as Locke: I'm sorry you had to see me like that.

2. "Demolition Man"- The Police

3. "Evil Urges" - My Morning Jacket

Evil urges baby - it's part of the human way.

4. "Red Right Hand" - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

He'll appear out of nowhere/But he ain't what he seems.

And this quote, Claire (of the Man in Black): That's not John! This is my friend.

5. "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" - Blue Öyster Cult

For the man in black's mysterious power to create duplicates of the departed and/or to make people see visions of the dead.

6.
"As the End Draws Near [Extended Remix] " - Manufacture feat. Sarah McLachlan

Man in Black (to Jacob): They come. They fight. They destroy. They corrupt. It always ends the same.

Side Two - Light

7.
"The Zero Light" - Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears

This is just a fun song about a cult leader who believes in the "light."

8.
"Sun King" - The Beatles

9. "Ra Is a Busy God" - Happy Rhodes

For the strange ancient Egyptian stuff surrounding the character.

10. "Sail Across the Water" - Jane Siberry

Love is kneeling, above the broken body the ever up-turned face.




11. "Power of One" - Merril Bainbridge

Locke (Man in Black) of Jacob: At some point in your life, James, probably when you were young and miserable and vulnerable. He came to you, he manipulated you, pulled your strings like you were a puppet. And as a result, choices you thought were made, were never really choices at all.

And for the general magical feeling of the song and of course, the references to the power of one person's touch. A bit tongue in cheek (?) but if you want to, you can think of it as a love song/hymn to Jacob. ;)

12. "The Miracle of Love" - Eurythmics

For the theme of rebirth and this quote about the people who are drawn to the Island from episode 06x09:

Jacob (to Richard): And when they get here, their past doesn't matter.
