The Likes of You and I [a Vastra/Jenny fanmix]
Full album art, tracklistings, and download links under the cut.
Right, so I've got eight different very-nearly complete fanmixes on my computer, but have I used my free time finishing any of those? Nope. This happened instead.
I simply fell in love with these two while watching A Good Man Goes To War. But honestly, who could blame me? They are interspecies victorian space wives! VICTORIAN SPACE WIVES. With katanas! They are female Holmes and Watson! FEMALE HOLMES AND WATSON. (And I think a good lot of you know how I feel about Holmes and Watson.)
I had wanted to write fic to accompany this, but unfortunately real life has now left me with no time to write and I just really wanted to get this out into the world because the world needed more victorian space wives and yeah. Run-on sentence. Sorry about that. In my defense it is two am and I always ramble at two am. Where was I? Oh yeah. Right. Basically, even if there is no fic, I hope my hypothetical backstory for these two still comes across while you are listening to this mix.
Enough babble, on with the fanmix! I really hope you all enjoy it. The mix has a few artists that I don't normal listen too on it, but those tracks really work for them I think. Like, it has Katy Perry on it. (The only Katy Perry song I have on my computer, actually.) But it just seemed perfect and I REGRET NOTING. Also, it has t.A.T.u. Also, It has Tori Amos doing a Chas and Dave cover. I've officially made a mix with a Chas and Dave song on it. I don't know if I'll ever be able to top that. And I'm rambling again. Sorry about that. Stopping now.

The Likes of You and I
a Vastra/Jenny fanmix
1. Clogs - Tides of Washington Bridge
[Instrumental]
2. Alexz Johnson - Voodoo (Orange Lounge Version)
[Jenny]
But I can see your glory
I wanna write your story
Somebody’s voodoo’s got me binded to you
3. Rasputina - In Old Yellowcake
[Vastra]
Under the window
Covered by curtains
All lacy and splattered with blood
We find crutches in the corner and bullets on the shelves
Which I dismiss at once as being equivalent
Irrelevant, in and of themselves
Oh, won’t you be there with me for it tonight?
In this hut-to-hut witch hunt
Down the tunnels of Old Yellowcake
Where all the souls in the city go drowning by starlight
Where each choice you make is a fierce firefight or a new mistake?
4. Ellie Goulding - Guns and Horses (Demo Version)
[Jenny]
I left my house
I left my clothes
Door wide open
Never knowing
You're so worthy, you are
5. Vyvienne Long - Seven Nation Army
[Vastra]
And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone
6. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps (ATLAS Remix)
[Jenny]
Wait
They don't love you like I love you
Wait
They don't love me like I love you
7. Anna Ternheim - Come Fly With Me
[Vastra]
Come fly with me
Let's float down in the blue
8. Lissie - Bad Romance
[Jenny]
You know that I want you
And you know that I need you
I want it bad, your bad romance
9. Halia Meguid - Love Don’t Roam
[Vastra]
Well, I've roamed about this Earth
With just a suitcase in my hand
And I've met some bog-eyed Joe's
I've met the blessed, I've met the damned
But of all the strange, strange creatures
In the air, at sea, on land
Oh, my girl, my girl, my precious girl
I love you, you understand
10. Ellie Goulding & Ben Lovett - Service Bell/Two Dancers II
[Jenny]
I keep a service bell in my room for you
Let the others do what they do
I will hold on, hold on, hold on
Oh, do you want my heart between your teeth?
Your hands are curling up like floating leaves
11. Sarah Slean - Notes From The Underground
[Vastra]
It's all right love
You're in good hands
Still out on the roof
Howling at the moon
Exiles
Another exile in the kingdom
Still out on the roof
All I need is you
Exiles
Oh, we are exiles
We two
12. The Good Natured - Be My Animal
[Jenny]
I want some more
Give me some more
What are we made for?
Oh, be my animal, hunt me down
13. Tori Amos - London Girls
[Vastra]
Some people sing about Deutsche girls
And girls from California
They might be alright for a night alright
But I don't trust them I warn ya
I've been to the east and I've been out west
And I've been the world around
But I ain't seen no one anywhere near
A girl from London town
14. Katy Perry - Electric Feel
[Jenny]
She got the power in her hand
To shock you like you won't believe
Saw her in the Amazon
With the voltage running through her skin
Standing there with nothing on
She's going to teach me how to swim
15. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll
[Vastra & Jenny]
Dripping with alchemy
Shiver stop shivering
The glitter's all wet
You're all chrome
The men cry out
The girls cry out
The men cry out
Oh no
Off with your head
16. t.A.T.u. - Not Gonna Get Us
[Jenny & Vastra]
Starting from here, let's make a promise
You and me, let's just be honest
We're gonna run, nothing can stop us
Even the night that falls all around us
BONUS TRACK
Lily Bee - It’s Not Easy Being Green
[Vastra]
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why
But why wonder why wonder
I am green, and it'll do fine
It's beautiful, and I think it's what I want to be
