fanmix: what happens in san diego
For 5_4_3_2's mini fanmix challenge.
Some of you may remember at the beginning of the community dans_backhouse, epic fic was written about a fandom crossover between iCarly and Drake and Josh where there was love, sex, and drama between Spencer, Drake, and Josh (and even sometimes Drake, Josh, and Jerry). I loved those fics so very much and so my mini fanmix is inspired by this crossover. Thank you, jannika, stttmsbwa, and anyone else who contributed, for bringing those stories to fruition.
#o1. Doing the Unstuck :: The Cure
.listen.
It's a perfect day for letting go
For setting fire to bridges
Boats
And other dreary worlds you know
Let's get happy! It's a perfect day for making out
To wake up with a smile
Without a doubt
To burst grin giggle bliss skip jump sing and shout
Let's get happy!
"But it's much too late" you say
"For doing this now
We should have done it then"
Well it just goes to show
How wrong you can be
And how you really should know
That it's never too late
To get up and go...
It's a perfect day for kiss and swell
For rip-zipping button-popping kiss and well...
There's loads of other stuff can make you yell
Let's get happy!
It's a perfect day for doing the unstuck
For dancing like you can't hear the beat
And you don't give a further thought
To things like feet
Let's get happy!
"But it's much too late" you say
"For doing this now
We should have done it then"
Well it just goes to show
How wrong you can be
And how you really should know
That it's never too late
To get up and go...
Kick out the gloom
Kick out the blues
Tear out the pages with all the bad news
Pull down the mirrors and pull down the walls
Tear up the stairs and tear up the floors
Oh just burn down the house!
Burn down the street!
Turn everything red and the beat is complete
With the sound of your world
Going up in the fire
It's a perfect day to throw back your head
And kiss it all goodbye!
It's a perfect day for getting wild
Forgetting all your worries
Life
And everything that makes you cry
Let's get happy!
It's a perfect day for dreams come true
For thinking big
And doing anything you want to do
Let's get happy!
"But it's much too late" you say
"For doing this now
We should have done it then"
Well it just goes to show
How wrong you can be
And how you really should know
That it's never too late
To get up and go...
Kick out the gloom
Kick out the blues
Tear out the pages with all the bad news
Pull down the mirrors and pull down the walls
Tear up the stairs and tear up the floors
Oh just burn down the house!
Burn down the street!
Turn everything red and the dream is complete
With the sound of your world
Going up in the fire
It's a perfect day to throw back your head
And kiss it all goodbye!
I feel as a character, Spencer tries to be optimistic and is very spontaneous. Overall, I'd say this song (one of my personal all-time favorites) is generally optimistic and upbeat while mentioning the negative things as well and how they can be overcome with a good day and a good attitude (spontaneity included). To me, this song expresses how Spencer acted with Drake and how he has to "kiss it all goodbye" because in the end, Drake usually picks Josh.
#o2. Get 'Em Outta Here :: Sprung Monkey
.listen.
Well I walked outside into a sunny day
Called some friends to back my play
Went downtown to taste a few
Then over to the coast
To see what kind of trouble we could get into
What trouble we could get into (3x)
In sweet home San Diego
Now over to p.b. the tanning ladies
San Diego girls they drive me crazy
Hooked up on a number or two
I'll call 'em later
To see what kind of trouble we could get into
What trouble we could get into (3x)
Now all of the bad times
Get 'em outta here
To the bum with the cheap wine
Get 'em outta here
To the perps of the hate crimes
Get 'em outta here
Because the owner of a calm hand he is the real man
Punks on the get low
Get 'em outta here
To the fools with their fake gold
Get 'em outta here
To the San Diego po po
Get 'em outta here (2x)
Now I called up zing to hit some spots
Bought a couple of beers to chase the shots
Pacers, platinum until two
Then over to the vu to see what kind of trouble we can get into
What trouble we could get into (3x)
To the nines in the front row
Get 'em outta here
To the swollen tongue coke ho
Get 'em outta here
To the watered down drinks low
Get 'em outta here
Because unless it is a stiff trip
You get no tip
Filly in the peep booth
Get 'em outta here
You got the tweeker with the one tooth
Get 'em outta here
Say poppa on the eighty proof
Get 'em outta here (2x)
Now back home to find my bed
I gotta cool buzz chillin' inside my head
But just before the sun breaks through
I choke a little laugh and think about
The trouble that we get into (4x)
To the busta with the hippy crack
Get 'em outta here
To the gold chain hair backs
Get 'em outta here
To the locs with the swag sacks
Get 'em outta here
Cause unless you got the kind nugs
You get no love
Wannabe pornstars
Get 'em outta here
To the toughs that are so hard
Get 'em outta here
Granny in her sports car
Get 'em outta here (2x)
To the label with the crook deals
Get 'em outta here
To the bands that play with no feel
Get 'em outta here
To the sailor in the high heels
Get 'em outta here
Got the stuffin' that bottleneck
Talk about shipwreck
Itchy faced crackheads
Get 'em outta here
You got the flatulating fat chicks
Get 'em outta here
You got to blast all hypocrites
Get 'em outta here (2x)
I can imagine Spencer going to San Diego to see where Drake lives and grew up and joining Drake and Josh in their usual shenanigans. This song also applies to what can be considered a partier music scene, drinks served at Drake's shows, chaos, and so forth.
#o3. Love You Much Better :: The Hush Sound
NOTE: you must click the specific track once the page loads. .listen.
Why do you sing to everybody but me? Why do I let it go on?
You've got such a music box song in my head all day long.
You fell for a girl with wild eyes, dressed in satin and lace.
She's just an empty diamond mine with moan across her face.
I can love you much better
If you can't see it you're blind
I can love you much better
And you know someday I'm going to make you mine.
You are the daydream in my eyes, there whenever I wake up
But the colors never crystallize and I never get enough
And while you kiss everybody but me, I just sit back and watch
But one day soon, I'm gonna grab you by the collar
and kiss you all I want!
I can love you much better
If you can't see it you're blind
I can love you much better
And you know someday, I'm gonna make you mine.
I can love you much better
I can love you all right.
I can love you much better
And you know someday, I'm gonna make you mine.
In short, this song relays Spencer's plea to Drake that he stay with him rather than going back to Josh.
