I've been casually stalking this community for quite a while since I read Shoebox, and I definitely don't want it to die. Anyways, I made a playlist and coverart. I'm sure half of these have been used in other playlists, but voila.

Maybe the lyrics don't fit perfectly, but this song reminds me of James at a bunch of different bits - when he's got his head stuffed in the chair after countless rejections from Lily, or when he finally gets her to go out with him, or after the funeral, or when he and Lily are living together and he's trying to be all responsible ("Oh dear, James ( Read more... )

"Death and All His Friends" by Coldplay
-Very much a wartime James/Lily song... it goes along with where we are right now in SBP.
No I don't wanna battle from beginning to end
I don't want a cycle of recycled revenge
I don't wanna follow Death and all his friends...
And in the end
We lie awake, and we dream of making our escape

So this is the song I will forever associate with Remus (apart from the first stanza of the song, which is a bit off topic for SBP).

So here is about 2 hours worth of Shoeboxy goodness in music form. This is my first fan ( Read more... )

A song that reminded me of R/S when I heard it today by a fabulous band called "Okkervil River."

I saw them in concert. Before this song, Will said "This song is about being a kid and being in love with your best friend."

I like music of 30-50th of the last century "unfashionably" and "retro", but
I found like-minded persons, created a group and appeared, that our music very befits contemporaneity.
how does it seem to you?

 Hey first post. Well I'm a french-canadian and this french song reminds me so much of Sirius and Remus so here are the lyrics and the translation.

Pierre Lapointe: Moi Je T'Aimerai

J'ai trouvé les mots
pour te dire que je t'aime cachés au creux de tes reins
Qu'importe maintenant
si oui,
si non
si tu m'aimes,car
Moi je sourirai quand même

Let me just say that I'm so excited that this group is here! There has been this one song that reminds me of Sirius/Remus every time I hear it,  but no one I know reads Shoebox and none of them understand why I love it so much. The song's called Brothers on a Hotel Bed by Death Cab for Cutie. I don't know how to leave a link... if I figure it out, ( Read more... )
