Fanmix for Clarity of Vision!
Sep. 22nd, 2013 11:22 pm
So lately I've discovered the joys of 8tracks.com, which lets you put together a mix and share it with others, and it's fun! You can see the ones I've done at my page, but I thought I'd give more detail about my latest since it's linked to Clarity of Vision, and actually fits very well the moment that series is at--and foreshadows the end quite a bit!
The cover is by the amazing Verit!
i. up on that hill - shawn colvin | In the land where all are mourning/You hear the band, you hear them call/You can be happy
ii. charcoal - the washington squares | The countless gold of a merry heart/The rubies and pearls of a loving eye/The idle man never can bring to the mart/Nor the cunning store up in his treasury
iii. lullaby - rosi golan | What can I give to you but nothing/If nothing is all I have?
iv. sometimes - rhett miller | Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes/The only thing you have is a song/And in these times, in these times/In these lonely, lonely times, I will sing along
v. orange sky - alexi murdoch | Here is what I know now/Goes like this:/In your love, my salvation lies/In your love, my salvation lies/In your love, my salvation lies/In your love, in your love, in your love
vi. flying mountain - golden bloom | One day the clouds got dark and/The sky broke open and/Down it came, I got washed away/I tried to call for help then/I found a shelter from the storm/To keep me warm and safe away
vii. flowers in the window - travis | So now we're here and now is fine/So far away from there and there is time, time, time/To plant new seeds and watch them grow/So there'll be flowers in the window when we go
viii. halcyon - the paper kites | Breathe, it's over now, over now/We can love, we can love/And the birds will sing out song in Halcyon
ix. where our destination lies - benjamin gibbard | I'd say it's safe to surmise there'll be storms at times/Cause you're a wind so blustery and cold/And down our cheeks the rain will run like sheets/Til the sun warms us both
x. after the storm - mumford & sons | There will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears/And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears/Get over your hill and see what you find there/With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair
xi. never-ending road - loreena mckennitt | Here is my heart, I give it to you/Take me with you across this land/These are my dreams, so simple and few/Dreams we hold in the palm of our hands
