Well, I'm a weapon of mass destruction; got no apologies for a hyper-concussion.
"It's important to you, being special?" "It's important to everyone." - Mr Bennet and Sylar, Fallout (1:11)
"I would say we both have a desire to be valued. My desire to be valued is manifested in cultivating relationships with my friends and family. Sylar's desire to be valued manifests itself... well, in a murderous rampage." - Zachary Quinto, EW.com
gossy16 provided me with the former quote and instructions to "DISCUSS." I found the second after completing the mix. I think it worked out. Ish.

GABRIEL GRAY
the coral | calendars & clocks
resent your past, repent at last
we are only lines on a map
calendars and clocks and hickory docks (tick tock).
death cab for cutie | this temporary life
the glass is full, the glass is broke,
and every day dissolves and there's no hope
of ever leaving this temporary life.
of ever leaving this temporary life.
the beatles | nowhere man
he's a real nowhere man,
sitting in his nowhere land,
making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.
ani difranco | grey
the sky is grey, the sand is grey, and the ocean is grey
i feel right at home in this stunning monochrome, alone in my way
[...]
what kind of paradise am i looking for?
[...]
maybe some tiny shiny key will wash up on the shore.
ALL CHANGE
aimee mann | amateur
i'm told the case is now closed
so i can come to my senses
[...]
i was hoping that you'd know better than that
i was hoping, but you're an amateur.
the arcade fire | wake up
with my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
i can see where i am go-goin’
you'd better look out below.
green day | brain stew
my mind is set on overdrive
the clock is laughing in my face
[...]
on my own, here we go.
SYLAR
the libertines | the man who would be king
another secret for ya
i've been told if you want to make it in this game
you got to have the luck
you got to have the look.
louis xiv | louis xiv
well, i'm a weapon of mass destruction
got no apologies for a hyper concussion
i might swipe your identity
take your love and turn it into obscenity.
[...]
ah, me me me me is all you say that i care about
me me me me is all i ever want to talk about.
avalanches | frontier psychiatrist
it's the opinion of the entire staff that dexter is criminally insane
that boy needs therapy.
arctic monkeys | brianstorm
so kind of you to bless us with your effortlessness
we're grateful and so strangely comforted
and i wonder are you puttin' us under?
'cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination
well, see you later, innovator.
METHODS OF MADNESS
the beatles | got to get you into my life
ooh, you were meant to be near me
ooh, and i want you hear me
say we'll be together every day.
ani difranco | names & dates & times
this time you've got my interest
this time you've got the floor
why don't you go and tell me something
i don't already know
give me something to remember you by
when you go
talking heads | (give me back) my name
something has been changed in my life
something must be returned to us.
modest mouse | ocean breathes salty
your body may be gone, i'm gonna carry you in.
in my head, in my heart, in my soul.
POWER TRIP/GOD COMPLEX
andrew bird | fake palindromes
my dewy-eyed disney bride, what has tried
swapping your blood with formaldehyde?
what monsters that talk, monsters that walk the earth
[...]
and i'm gonna tie your wrists with leather
and drill a tiny hole into your head
aimee mann | frankenstein
say hello to your new creation
now it's better than real
it's a real imitation.
ryan adams | i see monsters
colours inside your head go spinning around
like a ferris wheel
exploding and falling to the ground
oh, people are screaming, people are screaming.
delierium feat. sarah mclachlan | silence
passion chokes the flower
'til she cries no more
possessing all the beauty
hungry still for more.
Perhaps a failing of this mix (and the more general (sorta) Heroes mix) is that I went for lyrics first and musical flow second. Additionally, I could've cut out at least one song per section (in hindsight, "Got To Get You Into My Life" is a tad cracked out) but, yanno, I didn't want to. Call it selfish. And in case anyone cares, my favourite is the "Sylar" section. "Louis XIV" is hilarious.
Edit: Now with added cover "art"! WOW.
Comments (criticisms?!) would be nice, to say the least.
