LA Without a Map Fanmix + Picspam
I've been making this for about a week now because it became a sort of hybrid half-fanmix, half-picspam. But I think it's finally done. We'll see how this goes, because I haven't publically shared a fanmix, well, ever, and it's been about a year since I've shared any graphics. For that reason, and because this is really not a very popular movie, I have no idea if I should try crossposting it anywhere. Advice from the f-list regarding that issue is welcome and appreciated.
01. 500 Miles - The Proclaimers
When I wake up yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door
02. California Dreamin' - The Mamas & the Papas
All the leaves are brown and the sky is grey
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin’ on such a winter's day
Stopped into a church I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher likes the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin’ on such a winter’s day
03. All Day and All of the Night - The Kinks
Not content to be with you in the daytime
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
04. California - Phantom Planet
We've been on the run
Driving in the sun
Looking out for number 1
California here we come
Right back where we started from
…
On the stereo
Listen as we go
Nothing's gonna stop me now
California here we come
Right back where we started from
05. 1-2 Crush on You - The Clash
Standing in a queue of a school canteen
Guys on the corner they were laughin' at me
But I don't mind if they see it all
You know i gotta come clean, I gotta come clean
I got a crush on you
I wanna get serious right away
1-2, I got a crush on you
What you doin' today or any other day?
1-2, I got a crush on you
Just one look and I go insane
1-2, I got a crush on you
06. Drive My Car - The Beatles
Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, can't you see
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
I told that girl that my prospects were good
And she said baby, it's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time
07. The Other Side of Summer - Elvis Costello
The automatic gates close up between the shanties and the palace
The blowtorch amusements, the voodoo chalice
The pale pathetic promises that everybody swallows
A teenage girl is crying 'cos she don't look like a million dollars
So help her if you can
'Cos she don't seem to have the attention span
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf
The other side of Summer
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf
The other side of Summer
08. He's on the Beach - The Lemonheads
He was just a friend of mine I'd run into from time to time
Long before he moved away we used to share a taste for wine
Still I never knew that he was sad back then
He said the time had come for him to take a holiday
And he says it's brilliant there
There's something in the air
And sunshine everywhere
He's on the beach
I know he's changed somehow
He sends those postcards now
I'm not sure where he is
But he's out of reach
…
And I don't blame him
Leaving was the best thing he could do
He longed for changes
I just hope he's happy when he does the things he thinks he has to do
And he tries, and he tries
Yes he tries but he's a little bit hard on himself
Somehow he's trying to be someone else
09. Walking in LA - Missing Persons (with Sen Dog of Cypress Hill)
Look ahead as we pass, try and focus on it
I won't be fooled by a cheap cinematic trick
It must have been just a cardboard cut out of a man
Top-forty cast off from a record stand
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A
10. A Taste of Honey - The Beatles
A taste of honey
Tasting much sweeter than wine
I dream of you first kiss and then
I feel upon my lips again
A taste of honey
Tasting much sweeter than wine
I will return, yes I will return
I'll come back for the honey, and you
11. The Ritz - Office
A kiss near the fountain at The Ritz
Oh yes, it was beautiful
A kiss near the fountain at The Ritz
Oh yes, it was beautiful
Oh yes, it was beautiful
Good morning, good night
My sweet impossible
12. Gangsterville - Joe Strummer
Down in Gangsterville
Where any sane people already crawled under the house
Gangsterville--the television is always thinking about
Real people--especially when it's hungry
13. I'm Not Your Stepping Stone - The Monkees
You're trying to make your mark in society
Using all the tricks that you used on me.
You're reading all those high fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearin' girl are causing public scenes.
I said, I'm not your stepping stone
14. LA Woman - Billy Idol
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
Drive through your suburbs
Into your blues, into your blues
I see your hair is burnin'
Hills are filled with fire
If they say I never loved you
You know they are a liar
15. When I Write the Book - Rockpile
And when I write the book about my love
It will be about a man who’s torn in half
About his hopes and ambitions wasted through the years
The pain will be written on every page in tears
When I write the book about my love
16. Don't Dream It's Over - Crowded House
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page
17. Obsession - Animotion
You are an obsession
I cannot sleep
I am your possession
Unopened at your feet
There's no balance
No equality
Be still I will not accept defeat
…
My fantasy has turned to madness
And all my goodness
Has turned to badness
My need to possess you
Has consumed my soul
My life is trembling
I have no control
18. Everyday I Write the Book - Elvis Costello & the Attractions
Don't tell me you don't know the difference
Between a lover and a fighter
With my pen and my electric typewriter
Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal
I'd still own the film rights and be working on the sequel
And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book
