Fanmix: Anya from BtVS
While looking through the Buffy tags in fanmix, I was mortified to see how many Buffy/Angel few Anya fanmixes there were. Anya's one of my favourite characters and as as I usually root for the underdog, I decided to take it upon myself to make an Anya fanmix. I've tried to put the tracks in order of the episodes, starting from season 6, with her and Xander going from love > break up > revenge > downward spiral > solace sex > big battle > imminant death. I'll admit that I cried like a baby shed a tear when Joss killed her off. It was also pretty obvious to me that Anya & Xander we still totally in love in Season 7.. *tear.
Anyway, the cover art is based on a screencap from one of my favourite Anya episodes - season 7; Selfless.

Title: Only Human
Spoilers: Only if you've never watched an episode, which then is ludicrous!?
Notes: All 13 songs are in .m4a format and in one MediaFire zipfolder. The cover art is included in the zip. If the zip link runs out, just let me know and I'd be happy to re-upload it.
Shameless Plugging: Track 6, Aaron Reeves. He's a friend of mine who was also the lead guitarist / keyboardist in a previous band I was in called The Arkanes. Aaron's currently unsigned, but writes and produces songs in a couple of bands nowadays including The Apology Line and The CD-Rs.
Tracklisting & Lyrics:
'Only Human'
01. Aimee Mann - Mr. Harris
"Of course I know that we've only got ten years or twenty left, but to be honest, I'm happy with whatever time we get // Sometimes it takes a lifetime to get what you need // And honestly, I might be stupid to think love is love, but I do // And you've waited so long and I've waited long enough, for you"
02. The Decemberists - The Bachelor & The Bride
"But I, said the bachelor to the bride, am not waiting for tonight // No I, I will box your ears and leave you here, stripped bare"
03. Stars - The Big Fight
"He doesn't want her but he just won't let her go // She started breaking but she still wont let it show"
04. Kaki King - Life Being What It Is
"Life being what it is, we all dream of revenge // And if you'd turn it on you'd find, I've written you a thousand times // He'd give up eveything for God knows why // I just can't stay 'til you're gone, I won't wish you well, I won't see you off"
05. Fiona Apple - Red Red Red
"But it's dangerous work, trying to get to you too // And I think if I didn't have to kill, kill, kill myself doing it, maybe I wouldn't think so much of you // What's coming is already on it's way, with a role for me to play // There's nothing else I can do"
06. Aaron Reeves - Help
"Voices inside my head, they tell me to end this life // Won't somebody help? // Cos I am feeling, I'm almost gone // Forget and try to move on"
07. Trespassers William - Far Too Far
"And so, if you don't know, if you can't see anything // You're only wounding me more, maybe if it showed, you'd pity me // And if I know love, the first sting is soft, compared to the end"
08. WarPaint - Billie Holiday
"As I walk this time and I'm bound by the other side and it's for my heart as I look close you never try // Nothing you can say can tear me away from my guy"
09. Sonic Youth - Little Trouble Girl
"If you want me to, I will be the one, that is always good and you'll love me too // But you'll never know what I feel inside, that I'm really bad, little trouble girl"
10. Bright Eyes - Love I Don't Have To Love
"Your hands on me, pressing hard against your jeans // Your tongue in my mouth, trying to keep the words from coming out // Let's just keep touching, let's just keep singing // Life's no storybook // Love's an excuse to get hurt and to hurt"
11. Uh Huh Her - Mystery Lights
"I see the signs, seen the writings on the wall and baby I'm scared // All good people will try and fight, but what they don't know will kill them // You've come too late, there's nothing left"
12. The Cinematics - Human
"My darkest thoughts they stick like glue // Too many hours 'til the daytime comes // I’ve been breaking my back with the weight of your heart // Don't forget, I'm only human"
13. Malcolm Middleton - Fight Like The Night
"On goes the battle, rages the war // When it's darker we're stronger, getting ready to fight // You can be my hero, by not letting me down // Not letting me down again, and being around"
"I'M ELEVEN HUNDRED AND TWENTY YEARS OLD! JUST GIMME A FRICKIN' BEER!"
