Black Sheep Boy & the Pleasure Seeker: A House/Wilson Mix
Only the full .zip is currently available.
If you want/need individual songs, let me know.
Notes: To say that I adore this pairing would be quite the understatement. And while House and Wilson just make 'sense' together, being that they both have more than a few issues, it would be naive and unrealistic to think that it would be easy or even that it would end well. The songs are (more or less) in a chronological-like order. I had a mini-battle with myself over the inclusion of "Delicate," but as I probably would've included it even if it hadn't been used in the episode "Humpty Dumpty" (the section quoted below was featured during a shot of just the two of them, even), it's here. The 'bonus track' isn't meant to be the ending of the mix per se, but rather a possible 'not quite the worst case scenario, but still bad' conclusion to the relationship. And, yes, I do realize that this tops 80 minutes; I just couldn't bare to cut anything out.
This is my first fan mix since 2003's AngstSexLove. Any comments whatsoever would be greatly appreciated and questions about the 'why' behind my song choice would be gladly answered.
+ + 1 + +
Sufjan Stevens - Size Too Small
(House POV; with Wilson/Julie)
I was the best man in a size too small
You were my best friend, going at it all
+ + 2 + +
Brendan Benson - Pleasure Seeker
(Wilson POV; Wilson-centric; Wilson/others)
And it must be a phase that I'm in
'Cause I can't explain to begin
It could be a permanent thing
But it feels like a meaningless fling
+ + 3 + +
Gomez - 78 Stone Wobble
(House POV; House-centric)
'Cause I don't want nobody to know me
I don't need nobody to know
+ + 4 + +
The Frames - Giving Me Wings
(Wilson POV; with House/Stacy)
You're never yourself
Not even with me
+ + 5 + +
Afterhours - There's Many Ways
(House POV; with Wilson/others)
You think you're my private hell's hero
Well, this is just routine
Though you're empty now
You'll fill up again
+ + 6 + +
Aloha - Your Eyes
(Wilson POV)
I know what you've been through
I know you
You've got nowhere to go
You've got nothing to be but alone
+ + 7 + +
Unbunny - Unchained
(House POV)
So, if you must know the truth
You're the only one who knew
That everything must come undone
Before it can be chained
+ + 8 + +
The Standard - Little Green
(Wilson POV)
One kiss from adultery
One decision from staying
One conversation from leaving
+ + 9 + +
Castanets - Bells Aloud
(House POV)
And we could've taken any of these roads
But who knows about this one we chose
And who knows, friend, how far it goes
+ + 10 + +
Snow Patrol - Ways & Means
(Wilson POV; with Wilson/Julie)
Doctor, make it better instantly
You're the only one who can
I've been waiting here my whole damn life
And I've forgotten what I wanted
+ + 11 + +
Damien Rice - Delicate
(Wilson POV)
We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
+ + 12 + +
Loquat - Take It Back
(House POV)
I know what a jerk I am
And what a pain in the ass you are
+ + 13 + +
Flotation Toy Warning - Even Fantastica
(Wilson POV; House-centric)
And everything you ever lost, they kept it here in one big box
And everywhere you look there's birds and trees and hope
And every moment when you shined, they caught it on video just in time
And all your best one-liners are down here on audio cassette
+ + 14 + +
Death Cab For Cutie - Brothers On A Hotel Bed
(House POV; with [perceived] Wilson/others)
You may tire of me
As our December sun is setting
'Cause I'm not who I used to be
No longer easy on the eyes
But these wrinkles masterfully disguise
The youthful boy below
+ + 15 + +
Of Montreal - Noir Blues To Tinnatus
(Wilson POV; with Wilson/others)
The celebration has ended
And now no one will compare
I'll be searching for you in everyone
But you won't be there
No, you won't be there
+ + 16 + +
Lou Barlow - Legendary
(Wilson POV)
Smiling through denial, my specialty
I thought that was a good thing for awhile
+ + 17 + +
Malcolm Middleton - Autumn
(House POV)
Isn’t it funny how all the people I’ve loved
All have in common the fact that I’ve shoved them
Away from me, away from mine,
I’m a no man’s land, and a man with no mind
+ + 18 + +
Okkervil River - So Come Back, I Am Waiting
(Wilson POV; House-centric)
He says, “I am waiting on hoof and on hand.
I am waiting, all hated and damned.
I am waiting - I snort and I stamp.
I am waiting, you know that I am,
Calmly waiting to make you my lamb.”
+ + 19 + +
Elbow - The Everthere
(House POV)
If I loose a sequin here and there
And take my time on every stair
Can I rely on you
When this whole thing is through
To be for me the everthere?
+ + Bonus Track+ +
(a pessimistic, yet realistic, ending)
The Czars - Get Used To It
(Wilson POV; House-centric)
If this is what you want, then get used to destruction
If this is what you need, then get used to depression
'Cause there's nobody here gonna sit around, and listen to your opinion
If this is what you want, then get used to being alone
