ASOIAF: Ned & Robert Fanmix
Download all | Preview all
This was done in a total rush because I'm terrible with deadlines (cover art = 12 minutes tops) and honestly it's kind of the leavings of about three other fanmixes mixtapes (it sounds so much more - wait for it! - authentic). It's not particularly shippy but you can see it that way if you so choose!
01. Ragged Wood - Fleet Foxes
Harrenhal; eighteen and carefree /// Come down from the mountain, you have been gone too long * The spring is upon us, follow my only song * Settle down with me by the fire of my yearning
02. Black Water - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros
The war drums beat after Lyanna's disappearance /// Black water drippin' down your face * Mountains in reconstitution's embrace * Guns and steel, and the germs of love * Blow for blow, in the world of mud * Guns and steel, and the germs of love * Toe to toe for my aching heart
03. Royal Things - Begushkin
War is hell /// Take my hand * That filthy black mass * Fetch me a pail and pour me a glass * These are the things * Murder by kings * Yo brother, I'll tell you a tale * A tale of waste and thunder * A crown of fortune we hail * And a lifted arm for plunder [ I don't know if these lyrics are correct, they're the best I can make out! ]
04. Mykonos - Fleet Foxes
Parting ways after the murder of Rhaegar's children /// The door slammed loud and rose up a cloud of dust on us * Footsteps follow down through the hollow sound, torn up * And you will go to Mykonos * With a vision of a gentle coast * And a sun to maybe dissipate * Shadows of the mess you made *** When I'm walking brother don't you forget * It ain't often you'll ever find a friend
05. Rosebud - Ryan Adams & The Cardinals
It was Lyanna's death that brought them together again /// When I pick up my guitar * This is the song that always comes * Don't know what I'm singing 'bout * Don't know what for * I think about you * And I think about Rosebud * Wish there was a song to sing to bring you back * But you can't get here from nowhere I guess
06. What Became Of The Likely Lads? - The Libertines
Fifteen years later /// The blood runs thicker, oh * We're as thick as thieves, you know * If that's important to you * It's important to me *** Oh, what became of the likely lads? * What became of the dreams we had? * Oh what became of forever? * Oh what became of forever, though * We'll never know
07. Some Riot - Elbow
Ned to Robert /// A friend of mine grows his very own brambles * They twist all around him 'til he can't move *** I think when he's drinking he's drowning some riot * What is my friend trying to hide? * Cause it's breaking my heart, it's breaking my heart
08. Nobody's Fault But My Own - Beck
Robert to Ned /// Treated you like a rusty blade * A throwaway from an open grave * Cut you loose from a chain gang * And let you go * And on the day you said it's true * Some love holds and some gets used *** Who could ever be so cruel? * Blame the devil for the things you do
09. This Old Dark Machine - James Vincent McMorrow
Where they came, from where they started /// What a statue to our greatness * What a story all will tell * They'll remember us forever * They'll remember where we fell * This old dark machine, it shakes and it shudders * Pulls to the left, then dies near the gutter
10. Brothers In Arms - Dire Straits
At the end you keep the things that meant the most (it's metaphorical mkay?) /// Now the sun's gone to hell * And the moon's riding high * Let me bid you farewell * Every man has to die * But it's written in the starlight * And every line on your palm * We're fools to make war * On our brothers in arms
