Fanmix: Lullabies of the Island (Lost)
This is a fanmix I made for jjverse. My sister gave me the idea of doing lullabies for Aaron from Lost. Instead of making it 'a awwww so cute! mix' I decided to go a bit dark with it at times with songs/lullabies about parents leaving (Goodnight my Angel) and death (Bright Eyes). This is Lost after all! Some of the other songs I picked were sentimental for me because my mother sang them to me as a child (You're Gonna Be A Star and You are my Sunshine). Interestingly, even those are about death or losing someone, lol. Yeah...
Lullabies of the Island:
A fanmix for Aaron
Summertime
(By George Gershwin; Sung by Janis Joplin)
Link to Song
One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
But until that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With your daddy and mammy standing by
Lullabye Goodnight My Angel
(By Billy Joel)
Link to Song
Good night my angel time to close you eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Where ever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away
You are my Sunshine
Link
The other night, dear,
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms.
When I awoke, dear,
I was mistaken
And I hung my head and cried.
Hush Little Baby
Link
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
You are Everybody
(by Driveshaft)
Link
You all, everybody
You all, everybody
Acting like you're stupid people
Wearing 'spensive clothes
You all, everybody
You all, everybody
You all, everybody
Bright Eyes
(From Watership Down by Simon and Garfunkel)
Link
Is it a kind of dream,
Floating out on the tide,
Following the river of death downstream?
Oh, is it a dream?
There's a fog along the horizon,
A strange glow in the sky,
And nobody seems to know where you go,
And what does it mean?
Oh, is it a dream?
Bright eyes,
Burning like fire.
Bright eyes,
How can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.
Mothers and Children
Link (starts about a half of minute in)
Mothers and children from long ago,
Mothers and children from far away,
So many of them, being together,
It's always been that way.
Some of them lived in dusty castles,
Some of them lived where monkeys play.
Each of them caring for the other,
Just as they do today.
Sharing a story, playing a game,
Looking alike, well, almost the same.
In cities, and jungles, and deserts, and farms,
See all the mothers with kids in their arms.
In happy times, sad times,
Hungry times, glad times.
There always have been, there always will be
Mothers and children, being together,
Just like you and me.
You're Gonna Be A Star
Link (Starts about 4 and half minutes in
You're gonna be a star
Somewhere in the sky
Bright and proud, way up high.
You're gonna be a star
Somewhere in the blue
There's a spot just for you!
At night when the sky is clearing
You'll talk with the other stars
I bet you'll be overhearing
What Jupiter said to Mars!
A shiny little star
Is what you're gonna be--
Just you wait and see!
