This Is Yours To Wear [a Buffy & Faith fanmix]
Full album art, tracklistings, and download links under the cut.
Gosh, this mix has been sitting on my computer, nearly complete, for months & months. I started it after a re-watch of the series with a friend, and before I finalized it I ended up running out of steam. (It is always so lame when that happens!) But a couple of weeks ago I was re-inspired and decided it was time to finish this lovely little mix that follows the journey of our dear chosen two. And so, after some tweaking to the tracklist (and the addition of beautiful cover art by my darling friend mad_teagirl) it is finally finished.
I hope you all enjoy the mix!

This Is Yours To Wear
a Buffy Summers & Faith Lehane fanmix
1. Bat For Lashes - Horse and I
[Buffy]
They sang to me
"This is yours to wear
You're the chosen one
There’s no turning back"
2. Marina & The Diamonds - Starstrukk
[Faith]
L-O-V-E's just another word
I never learned to pronounce
3. Joanna Newsom - The Book of Right-On
[Buffy]
Do you want to run with my pack?
Do you want to ride on my back?
Pray that what you lack does not distract
4. Laura Veirs - Black Gold Blues
[Faith]
And you'll shine, shine, shine
Up, up the wild deep dark
A sliver, a crack of light
Is all you need to see
5. Tilly & The Wall - Blood Flower
[Buffy]
You'd better watch where you're walking
You'd better watch what you're doing
6. Florence + The Machine - Bird Song
[Faith]
I trapped him under a cardboard box
Stood on it to make him stop
Picked up the bird and battled with him
I said "That's the last song you'll ever sing"
Held him down, broke his neck
Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget
But in my dreams began to creep
That old familiar "Tweet, tweet, tweet"
7. Basia Bulat - Sparrow
[Buffy]
One day the one you battle might be me
8. Laura Marling - Darkness Descends
[Faith]
Can I just say I don't feel the light
But darkness descends once more into my life
They're just not like that man of mine
Who visits me from time to time
9. Bjork - Army Of Me
[Buffy]
You're on your own now
We won't save you
10. 65daysofstatic - Climbing On Roofs (The Desperate Edit)
[Faith]
[Instrumental]
11. Clogs - Adages of Cleansing
[Buffy]
Ratio for a piece
10 as to 5 and 5 as to 10
Rub the skin dry and with the hands
Hold and hold and maintain
12. Florence + The Machine - Kiss With a Fist
[Faith]
You hit me once
I hit you back
You gave a kick
I gave a slap
13. Jessica Lea Mayfield - It’s A Shame
[Buffy]
I’m the girl who almost died
I guess that's what it took
To open up my eyes
And I’m everyone's best friend
You may hate me
But I’ll be here til the end
14. Marina & The Diamonds - Guilty
[Faith]
I left it bruised and black and lame
I left it running for shame
Oh I'm a guilty one
And I know what I have done
15. Lissie - Here Before
[Buffy]
Oh, what a gray and hopeless day
I've got a worried mind
The sun's behind the clouds again
And so am I
I ask the sky
Tell me which way to go
How will I know to shine again?
16. Cat Power - Wonderwall (Elements Of Noise Remix)
[Faith]
I said maybe
You're going to be the one that saves me
17. Regina Spektor - One More Time With Feeling
[Buffy]
Everyone takes turns
Now it's yours to play the part
And they're sitting all around you
Holding copies of your chart
And the misery inside their eyes is synchronized
And reflecting it to yours
18. My Brightest Diamond - Riding Horses
[Faith]
I think I like you, yeah
And not just for what you do
Or for what you say
Or for what you were to somebody
Not for what you did
Or for what you may do for me, yes
And I know we've had some hard times
With hard people
19. The Like - Under The Paving Stones
[Buffy]
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
You talk to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
20. Fever Ray - I'm Not Done
[Faith]
So I lost my head a while ago
But you seem to have done better
We set fire in the snow
It ain't over
I’m not done
21. Ellie Goulding - Home
[Buffy]
I look in the window and I gaze on my face
Every line and every abrasion
This took my life to make
22. Sarah Slean - Hopeful Hearts
[Buffy & Faith]
Fiends and devils in the garden
Take their fill and leave me scarred
But I still have my secret weapon
This my brave and hopeful heart
