Fanmix: the subtle grace of gravity

[coyotesuspect]

Title: the subtle grace of gravity
Subject: Anna/Ruby
Summary: A gift!mix for familiardevil at the spn_fs_exchange . Basically it's the story of "What if Anna and Ruby had- after much snark and theological angsting- hooked up and combined forces to stop the Apocalypse?" It's a little angry and a little sad and a lot hopeful. And made with love. Lots of love.

Dear familiar, you consistently amaze me, and I adore you. I hope you enjoy.

Fanmix includes front and back cover, eight individually uploaded songs, and a zip of all the songs together. Feedback is good karma. Happy listening.









(1) Raised by Wolves - Voxtrot
I was going hungry and lazy here
When you stopped me in my tracks
I was going crazy; I was desolate and ready to kill
But maybe I believe in another place
If you go, you won't look back
And anywhere you go you know
The ugliness will follow you still

I don't know if you've got another place
Where you bury all these things
I don't know if you can see the shadow
That you cast on the ground
But maybe I can see through the lonely face
Loose your feet and loose your waist
Anywhere you are, you know the freedom there
Is dragging you down

And you break me into lines
We can shake our bodies
And wreck our minds
I’m a bitter man, I know,
But listen, honey, you're no fun

I will never love like you
But you will probably hate like me
Oh lovelessly, and empty
Full of god, and god makes plenty.
You will go on searching
For someone to keep you killing
And oh, don't you wanna love?
And don't you wanna feel?

(2) Rebellion (Lies) – Arcade Fire
People say that your dreams
are the only things that save ya.
Come on baby in our dreams,
we can live on misbehavior.

People try and hide the night
underneath the covers.
People try and hide the light
underneath the covers.

Come on hide your lovers underneath the covers
come on hide your lovers
underneath the covers.

Now here's the sun, it's alright!
(Lies, lies!)
Now here's the moon, it's alright!
(Lies, lies!)

(3) Fast Blood – Frightened Rabbits
let's get paralyzed down both sides
snake hips, red city kiss
and your black eyes roll back
midnight organ fight
yours gives into mine
it's all right
and the fast blood
hurricanes through me
and then it rips my roof away with her fire heads
this is the longest kiss
good night

oh--

and now I, I tremble,
because this fumble
has become biblical
I feel like I just died twice
was reborn again
for all our dirty sins

(4) Halo - Florence + the Machine
Remember those walls I built
Well baby they're tumbling them down
And they didn’t even put up a fight
They didn’t even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standin’ in the light of your Halo
I got my angel now

It’s like I’ve been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin’
Its the risk that I’m takin’
I ain’t never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I’m lookin’ now
I’m surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your Halo
You know you’re my saving grace

I swore I’d never fall again
But this don’t even feel like falling
Gravity can’t begin
To pull me to the ground again

(5) Perfect in my Mind – Gold Motel
I don't have forever, but I'll live like I do
Feels like endless summer with the light shining through
All I have is borrowed, my skin and my bones

I don't have a reason, but I live like I do
The sky could crash into the ground, and we like the view

Every thing is just fine
Every thing is just fine
So long as I'm by your side
It's perfect in my mind

No one needs to save me
I'm already saved
No one needs to save me
I'm already saved

(6) You Are the Moon – the Hush Sound
The subtle grace of gravity, the heavy weight of stone

You don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear
It floods the sky and blurs the darkness like a chandelier
All the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seas
The shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe

I will bring a mirror, so silver, so exact
So precise and so pristine, a perfect pane of glass
I will set the mirror up to face the blackened sky
You will see your beauty every moment that you rise

(7) Gospel – the National
Let me come over I can waste your time I’m bored
invite me to the war every night of the summer
and we’ll play G.I. blood, G.I. blood
we’ll stand by the pool
we’ll throw out our gold medals

Darling can you tie my string
killers are callin on me
my angel face is fallin
feathers are fallin on my feet
darling can you tie my string
killers are callin on me

Stay near you, stay near your television
set it up outside
and hang your holiday rainbow lights in the garden

(8) In the Aeroplane over the Sea – Eisley
What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all around the sun
What a beautiful dream
That could flash on the screen
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me
Soft and sweet
Let me hold it close and keep it here with me

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all around the sun
And when we meet on a cloud
I'll be laughing out loud
I'll be laughing with everyone I see
Can't believe
How strange it is to be anything at all

LOLOL PSYCHIC TWIN POWERS ACTIVATE

OH HAY YEAH I FORGOT TO PUT THE PART WHERE I APOLOGIZED FOR USING A SONG YOU'D GIVEN ME, BUT I WAS FEELING ~RUSHED FOR SOME REASON (JK ILY MORE THAN ANYTHING) AND DIDN'T.

BUT I WAS SHORT LIKE ONE SONG AND I'D LISTENED TO IT LIKE THIRTY TIMES AND WAS SUDDENLY ALL, HEY THIS REALLY WORKS! AND I ALREADY KNOW FAMILIAR LIKES IT!

[familiardevil.livejournal.com]

gosh the cover is so pretty

[coyotesuspect.livejournal.com]

just like you :*

[cantarina]

Gorgeous art (really, really stunning!) and basically anything with Florence in it can't be a bad thing. I heart fanmixes for this pairing SO HARD. It's all familiar's fault.

[familiardevil.livejournal.com]

>)

[coyotesuspect.livejournal.com]

:D! Thank you! And the Florence song is actually a cover, but it's still wonderful. Also, I love covers of all songs, hence why there are two covers in a mix of only eight songs.

Everything is familiar's fault. This is just trufax.

[scorpiod1.livejournal.com]

YOU ARE AMAZING. HOW DO YOU MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER? The cover is so beautiful and RED. God, I love the red, it's so striking and visually stunning.

Eisley! Florence! YOU ARE THE MOON, FUCK YEAH! The songs are awesome, the lyrics are both so pretty and BADASS. I've never heard Raised by Wolves before BUT OMG, I LOVE THE LYRICS. IT'S PERFECT. YOU ARE PERFECT. *____*

[familiardevil.livejournal.com]

The red really is gorgeous.
Just like her hair.
And her blood.
:,)

[coyotesuspect.livejournal.com]

NO, YOU ARE MORE AMAZING. LET'S HAVE SEX, Y/Y?

AND YES. RED. IT'S THE COLOR I ASSOCIATE WITH THEM, BECAUSE IT'S SO STRONG AND PASSIONATE AND STRIKING, BUT I WANTED YELLOW TOO, AND I AM PLEASED WITH HOW I MANAGED TO INTEGRATE THEM. /ramble

:D :D :D :D Thank you! I'm glad you like! AND OMG RAISED BY WOLVES IS SUCH A GREAT SONG. I actually really love the whole EP it's from. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

YOU ARE PERFECTER

[zempasuchil.livejournal.com]

I'mma chime in and go, OMG THIS ART. this aaaart *_____*

SO THIS LOOKS GREAT :D also I lol'd at the Florence cover of Halo because I used it for my Sassy mix. because. hee. oh that song XD it's about lovin' angels, ya ya ya. I don't know most of this music but Aeroplane Over the Sea = YES. I just obtained that Neutral Milk Hotel album this summer, which was wonderful. so i'm excited to hear the cover.

THUMBS WAY UP :D

[coyotesuspect.livejournal.com]

*happyclap* Thank you bb! Photoshop is still something of a mystery to me, so I am glad you like. :D :D :D

LOL YES. THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE SONG IS ABOUT. Also, I adore Florence's voice, mmm. <3___<3 And I hope you like the songs you don't know.

AND OMG IN THE AEROPLANE OVER THE SEA IS MY FAVORITE ALBUM OF ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME. I don't care if that makes me an unbearable indie kid; it's a masterpiece. Also, the Eisley cover is gorgeous. It's a stripped down, acoustic version. And the girls who sing it have beautiful, haunting voices. I hadn't heard the cover before, um, earlier this week actually, when familiar gave it to me. And then I turned right around and added it to this mix. Because rolling, that is how I do it.

:D :D :D TY TY TY
