Well, I came across this tv show by accident, and for the last five days all I did in my spare time was watch it. And watch it I did. I finished the whole thing in exactly five days. Besides some plot holes (and general “far-fetchedness”), the story is quite interesting; and it captives. It got me hooked. Anyhow, the connection between Adam, Sarah, Kyle and Jessi was the thing that interested me the most. So, I decided to make this mix. It’s a different concept, I guess, ‘cause the mixes are somehow intertwined. Separately (art-wise) they might not make sense, but together they do. And that’s basically the reason why I think Kyle and Jessi should get together in the present, and also the reason why Adam and Sarah did in the past. Plus, I never felt any mojo between Kyle and Amanda, which is very different when Kyle and Jessi are concerned.
Other things that I wanted to comment with my newfound fellow Kyle XY “watchers” (I haven’t had the time to browse the internet for any spoilers for the new season or read people’s opinions about the show); so, I would love to hear what you think:
1st) Is it just me or other people also think that Jessi is best suited for Kyle? It’s not that I have something against that Amanda girl (aside from her insipid ways, of course), but even that isn’t motive enough to dislike. I simply find Jessi waay more interesting and far beyond cooler, besides, I think that a Kyle/Jessi get together would be more interesting and bring out a stronger connection. I just don’t see a lot of chemistry between the young lovebirds. Am I alone? I can’t be! The fact that I found a community here on LJ for them gives me hope that I’m not alone :D
2nd) Will we have a Adam/Sarah meet in the not so distant future? I would love to see the interaction between those two! There’s so much baggage, and so much issues. It would be great to watch all the awkwardness. Anyone knows if that is in the cards for the new season?
3rd) Which brings to my third and last inquiry… I totally dig Ally Sheedy, don’t get me wrong. I will always hold her in some place dear for “Breakfast Club”, but she doesn’t look a tiny bit like the girl who plays Jessi (sorry, don’t know the actress’s name. Mental note: google her). I was expecting someone totally different! The guy who plays Adam looks so much like the one who plays Kyle (again, don’t know their names either… I’m new to the fandom, please cut me some slack), and Sheedy looks… okay, but the girl who plays Jessi is sooo much prettier. I know that I’m overreacting, but anyone was sort of disappointed too?
I should stop babbling now… Anyhow, I hope you enjoy the goodies!

i. such great heights // the postal service
"i am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
in our eyes are mirror images and when
we kiss they're perfectly aligned
and i have to speculate that God himself
did make us into corresponding shapes like
puzzle pieces from the clay
and true, it may seem like a stretch”
ii. cannonball // damien rice
"still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
still a little hard to say what's going on
still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed”
iii. something // cary brothers
"all your words
it's a lie to yourself, it's a home
there’s so much that you can't see
it’s a bomb that can kill everyone, and it blows
you can't even hear me scream”
iv. warning sign // coldplay
"a warning sign
you came back to haunt me and i realized
that you were an island and i passed you by
when you were an island to discover
come on in, i've got to tell you what a state i'm in
i've got to tell you in my loudest tones
that i started looking for a warning sign
and the truth is, i miss you
yeah the truth is, i miss you so
and i'm tired
i should not have let you go”
v. quicksand // kate walsh
"this quicksand’s pulling me down under
i don’t even see it’s killing me
all these caramel illusions
sinking slowly
why don’t you lay here?
these two suns of mine
are shining for different reasons here
i’ll be a liar for too long
i’m sinking here
but still i care”
vi. the other side // rachael yamagata
"i'm on the other side
of where our lives used to be
and i can feel alright
about whatever's good for me
baby, i wanna go back
you were supposed to come with me
all i ever wanted was to be with you”
vii. unrequited // ani difranco
"i'll tell you, if there is one instinct
i just can't get with it all
it's the urge to kill something beautiful
just to hang it on your wall
are you just too young?
are you too high strung?
to actually follow through
on all the love you said you had
baby, i never lied to you
is all or nothing
the best we can do?”
viii. i don’t care // david ford
"tear me on down
i am unforgivable
so why don't you just tell me
what you really think of me?
and scream me on down
i am so forgettable
yes, I know
and shoot me on down
don't you think this isn't killing me?
but it's no more than I deserve”
ix. streets of love // the rolling stones
"you're awful bright
you're awful smart
i must admit
you broke my heart
the awful truth
is really sad
i must admit
i was awful bad”
x. disappointment // the cranberries
"a disappointment
oh, you shouldn't have done
you couldn't have done
you wouldn't have done the things you did then
and we could've been happy
what a piteous thing
a hideous thing was tainted by the rest
but it won't get any harder”
xi. we're both so sorry // mirah
"how can i ever apologize? i meant you no such harm
i never knew i could possess that fatal kind of charm
i just wanted to be good to you but i found i was disarmed
by a lifetime of disillusionment and the distraction of the stars
i abdicated now i'm just a prince without a land
my subjects all adore me but for this i have been banned
now could i trade my guilt for a good flogging by your hand?
and hey, i'm sorry 'bout so much baby”
xii. she could be you // shawn hlookoff
"i'm haunted by this photograph
don't know why
everytime i look, i get shivers down my spine
you're such a beautiful face
i know those eyes
they take me back in time
she could be you
i wouldn't even know
she could be you
but that was long ago”

i. got me // she & him
"saw your face
my hand you took
just like in a storybook
and you got me
yeah, you got me
i can't even argue
couldn't, ‘cause it's true”
ii. memories of you // ryan adams
"memories of you
that i just don't have right now
i'll make them up
one cup of wanting you
two cups of hoping somehow
these things come true
while i'm staring at pictures of you
yearning, longing
making up memories of you
for now, your picture will do”
iii. dosify // pedestrian
"here we are
all reflection is dead for the mouth that we fed is now gone
beautiful, you're a flower for the taking
God's great creation undone, done, done, done, done
still you are with your head in a puddle
holding your breath ‘til love comes”
iv. i'm not that girl // idina menzel
"blithe smile, lithe limb
she who's winsome, she wins him
gold hair with a gentle curl
that's the girl he chose
and heaven knows
i'm not that girl
don't wish, don't start
wishing only wounds the heart”
v. the rat within the grain // damien rice
"i wouldn't want you to want to be wanted by me
i wouldn't want you to worry you'd be drowned within my sea
i only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true
in truth, i only really wanted to be wanted by you”
vi. i will possess your heart // death cab for cutie
"how I wish you could see the potential
the potential of you and me
it's like a book elegantly bound
but in a language you can't read just yet
you got to spend some time, love
you got to spend some time with me
and i know that you'll find, love
i will possess your heart”
vii. the wrong girl // belle and sebastian
"i went looking for my darling, i went looking for a sign
and i found her in the morning, somewhere in the back of my mind
i'm not what i could be, i need a true love
i went looking and i found one
the wrong girl
the wrong kind
the wrong hand to be holding
the wrong eyes to go searching behind
the wrong dream to have in my mind”
viii. do what you have to do // sarah mclachlan
"and fate has led you through it
you do what you have to do
and i have the sense to recognize that
i don’t know how to let you go
every moment marked
with apparitions of your soul
i’m ever swiftly moving
trying to escape this desire
the yearning to be near you
i do what i have to do”
ix. c’mere // interpol
"it's way too late to be this locked inside ourselves
the trouble is that you're in love with someone else
it should be me
oh, it should be me
sacred parts, your get aways
you come along on summer days
tenderly, tastefully”
x. here we go // jon brion
"you've gotta hope that there's someone for you
as strange as you are
who can cope with the things that you do
without trying too hard
because you can bend the truth
until it's suiting you”
xi. did you see the moon tonight? // a girl called eddy
"make you remember more
then you might want it to
but i want you to remember me
if you see the moon tonight
i hope it finds you all alone
maybe sitting by the phone
kinda sad and glad to be unhappy
'cause you’re missing me
like i'm missing you”
xii. she could be you // shawn hlookoff (instrumental)
