DPP: Music Monday

I know, I know! It's Christmas, it's crazy out there (Yes you really will be tackling people like a pro line backer!). You still haven't bought the presents for the kids, the school is demanding you still create 3 elf costumes and a Santa beard that looks good. Your mother wants to know when it is ok to come over and do not get started about your

I posted about this recently on my LJ, so some people will probably have seen these already, but for those who haven't, here are 2 vids. I recently made a soundtrack for one of kag523's fics and have spent a while thinking about what songs reminded me of pilots/ piloty moments.

The first is a Kara vid; the music is "Breathe Me" by Sia, which some may recognize as the music playing in the final scene of Six Feet Under. The song is gorgeous and melancholy, and it really fits Kara in my mind. (There's also a sweet Kara/Karl vid with the same music.)



The second is a Kara/ Lee vid; the music is "Set the Fire to the Third Bar" by Snow Patrol featuring Martha Wainwright. I'm not that fond of Snow Patrol, but I love Martha Wainwright; there's a beautiful contrast between/ combination of their musical styles and sounds as heard in this song. The song is full of hope and heartbreak and need (aka pilots, right?).



Enjoy!

OMG!

OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!

I had not heard the Snow Patrol/Martha Wainwright collaboration. LOVE Martha Wainwwright. (And don't even get me started on Rufus. I could go on for DAYS.)

I missed your playlist the first time around, and I must say, I really dig it. Excellent choices. :D

OMG RIGHT?! I am kind of obsessed with this song. I love Martha so, so much, and Rufus too. I got the chance to see them performing with their mom a few years before she died and it was amazing. Martha is phenomenal and Rufus is, well, you clearly know. Here's a little video I took of him in concert once:

Thank you so much, glad you liked the playlist for Karin! If you ever want me to pull together a playlist for one of your fics, I'd be happy to discuss. :D

I LOVE IT! OMG, THOSE LEGS!!! That man can do anything. Oh Rufus. :D

Aww, yay! You know I love a good playlist. I usually always come up with my own, but it's be fun to see what someone else would do. Oh-- you could almost do it like a fic remix-- take existing fics and cut a new playlist for it. Now that's an interesting idea...

I was listening to "Like a Friend" by Pulp yesterday and thinking about how it would be a good Kara/Lee vid. Voila--someone posted this on youtube.

I recently fell in love with this song by Carina Round from American Horror Story, but it totally reminds me of Lee waiting for Kara to come back on Earth. Super haunting.

and LINK cuz I apparently suck...

OMG so many songs. SO many. I always seem to listen to music with somewhat of a pilots filter.

How about an angsty Kara song from my girl Aimee Mann? It's called 'Red Vines.'

My favorite line--
Would it really kill you
Would it really spoil everything
If you didn't blame yourself--
Do you know what I mean?

Ed Sheeran - Kiss Me

Don't have a Lee/Kara vid but heres a link to the song. Everytime I hear the lyric "Kiss me like you want to be loved" it reminds me of Scar when Kara kisses him again before walking out. The way she kisses him....she so wants to be loved in that moment but she doesn't let herself. I also love this part

I've been feeling everything
From hate to love
From love to lust
From lust to truth
I guess that how I know you
So I hold you close
To help you give it up

That just screams Lee/Kara to me..
