Since you're gone my empty arms have nothing left to hold

Meeeh this was supposed to be here yesterday. X__X anyway I figured out what was wrong with my computer/my photoshop so I should be able to catch up fairly soon. For now, have a fanmix! :D

Spoilers up to AFFC (and pretty heavy so if you aren't there yet pass on this for now).



( lyrics/full covers/zip here )

Okay, this is two on four. Next two that I still have to post will be up next week but for now have the other uber-angsty one.

Title: let me forget about today until tomorrow
Fandom: Supernatural
Character/pairings: future!Castiel, implied future!Dean/future!Castiel though it's kinda canon.
Type: fanmix
Warnings: language, most songs deal with drug use and sex more times than not.
Notes: originally made for a fanmix challenge at spnland like when S5 was still airing or something close to it. Also basically this totally shows that I can't leave future!Cas alone.

Or, I have four mixes I made for spnland and never posted, so I figured I could start doing it, y/y?

Title: life gave me up and I have no control
Fandom: Supernatural
Character/pairings: Jimmy Novak (implied Jimmy/Amelia, if you want to see some very passive/aggressive Jimmy/Castiel in it be my guest)
Type: fanmix
Warnings: 95% grunge music, therefore very angry lyrics and possibly language.
Notes: originally made for the fanmix challenge at spnland, and I'm using it for my spnsupporting Jimmy Novak square. Mostly I've been wanting to do a Jimmy mix for ages but I never found enough songs because I went and looked at the wrong genres. Then it happened that this thing became 95% grunge music or grunge related but heck, it apparently worked, so. XD

Okay, this is the crazy mix and the last spamming for today. It probably shows my degree of obsession.

Title: And I Ain't Got No Halo Hanging Over My Head
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Castiel
Type: double fanmix
Warnings: I think that statistically the most recurring word in the lyrics is baby. I warned you.
Notes: this is my last contribution for dc_fireplace. It's 30 songs, all either Bon Jovi or solo Jon Bon Jovi and/or Richie Sambora. You can either blame this on me (because BJ is my favorite group and Dean can say all he wants, they're awesome) or on the two/three people who know who they are and totally didn't try to dissuade me. Thanks to _izu_ who gave me a hand with the pink sparkly cover and its pixel issues.
Notes part II: The first part is mostly serious songs (yeah, BJ can do serious ;) ), the second is utterly unrepentant cheesy songs which, imo, fit the pairing in spite of the cheese (or maybe also because of it). Goes unsaid: the second part and the first cover should probably not be taken too seriously. ;) Enjoy!
Notes part III: okay, this is the last thing. I have a bunch of demos in here but one, Backdoor To Heaven, is the only one never officially released so while the quality is good for being a demo it might be lower than the others; each final song in each part is a live cover because I thought it was neat. This probably lacks uber-famous songs with a few exceptions. And you've been spared most of the hair metal. Okay, that's definitely it. ;)



( all the three real covers plus songs plus lyrics plus links under the cut. )

FL who isn't here for SPN: sorry in advance for the major Dean/Castiel spamming I'll subject you to today. ;)

Title: You Already Won Me Over In Spite Of Me
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Castiel
Type: fanmix
Notes: today is my day at dc_fireplace for which I have one fic and two fanmixes, and I'm starting it with fanmix #1. #2 is way, way crazier. This one isn't supposed to cover specific eps and I tried to make it as happy-ish as possible. Which meant also using country-ish stuff for half of the mix but I swear it's nothing embarrassing. ;)



( full cover and back + songs + lyrics + zip under the cut )

Okay, I hit enough of my wordcounting for today. I'll post this and get back to it.

Title: I Found God And All His Devils Inside Him
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Castiel
Type: Fanmix + 9 icons + 3 wallpapers [all music by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds]
Spoilers: mostly for the art, up until 5x04
Notes: okay, so, this is also onlyechoes' fault because when I threw it out she didn't tell me I was crazy. Mostly I realized that Nick Cave + Dean/Cas = OTP. IMO, at least. Some lyrics are probably sorta morbid. And, I completely went crazy with this meaning that I also made icons and stuff out of the covers. Which I had never done before but I was kind of liking how it was coming together, so I just figured I would. And now I'll shut up. The title is from Do You Love Me?. The first thirteen songs are supposed to follow canon, the last two should have pretty much general coverage.

Oh dear. I'm so nervous about this one.

Title: It's Fun To Lose And To Pretend
Fandom: Lost
Character: Nirvana!Jack (plus light Jack/Sawyer and Jack/Juliet implied)
Rating: er, does hard PG-13 exist? Look at the warnings.
Warnings: Heavy spoilers for the S3/S4 finales. Anndd.. there's drug use, alcohol, abundance of grunge music, ghosts, delusional fantasies and musings about dead grunge singers which aren't necessarily of the sane kind.
Summary: It starts just because he needs something loud enough.
Tracks/Words: 13 tracks, 4850 words.
Notes: for Queen alliecat8 at lostsquee, who asked for Jack love. Errrr. This is so not happy or fluffy or anything else but when you commented somewhere that you used to like Nirvana a lot and then you asked for Jack I had to dust this off. Because I had like three sections written since ages and I never brought myself to go forward, but I always wanted to actually write something regarding why the hell does Jack like grunge music so much and I swear it was done out of pure love. I ♥ Jack like, a lot. And I have a bit of Jack/Sawyer in there too, even if sorry again, nothing of the HAPPY! sort.
Notes #2: if I ever wrote something music-inspired where the music is an integral part of the whole thing, this is it. So I used box.net because it should give you the possibility to hear stuff without downloading if you open the link in another window, either from the direct one on the song or from the widget I put in the bottom. And I sincerely hope it didn't end up being cryptic or something. I'm so nervous about this really. Also, the Uncut copy really exists. I own it. And I know that Janis Joplin isn't grunge, it's just that IMHO her song fits. ;) Uh, and Scentless Apprentice and Gouge Away were the ones in the actual show. Okay. I'm shutting up.



( He might try with pills and alcohol, but they won't shut his father up anymore; after a couple of weeks, he realizes how much of a hopeless cause it is. He'll appear anyway; Jack will have to listen to him anyway.  )

Title: Closest Thing To A Friend
Fandom: Lost
Pairing: Jack/Sawyer
Type: Fanmix
Notes: Late (sorry!) gift for the most lovely Queen invisiblelove at lostsquee who wished for Jack/Sawyer. Sadly my fluff muse wasn't cooperating at all yesterday and I couldn't come up with anything original, but I hope this is a good alternative! ♥ PS: the last song is because I can. ;) ;)



( covers + lyrics + links etc. )

Er, yeah, I'm multitasking again. And yes, during study breaks I put fanmixes together.. *cough* and I'll answer comments this evening I think. Or at least I hope.

Title: We Can Be Together
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Castiel
Type: Fanmix
For: for martyred_wings at the Dean/Castiel co-op swap exchange. Yes, another of those again.
Prompt: '60's music, eg the Animals, the Kinks etc.
Notes: er. It has the Animals and the Kinks. And then it's also kinda crazy because it ended up mixing (sorta) folk, pop, rock and semi-psychedelic stuff without any sort of logic, or maybe it has some logic but it's hidden somewhere.

ETA: the individual song links are expired (I'll update them asap), but the comprehensive zip is available.


( lyrics + covers + zip )

Well, I guess I'm the queen of multi-tasking since I put this thing together while reading a book and making a concordance. I just hope it doesn't show, lol. And er, yeah, D/C fanmixes are becoming my crack.

Title: I Am A Renegade
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing: Dean/Castiel
Type: Fanmix
For: neierathima at the Dean/Castiel co-op swap exchange.
Prompt: A fanmix of Dean/Castiel charting their relationship over each episode. That is, have a song (maybe two) for each episode sort of summing up the tone for that ep.
Notes: well, I had two songs for each episode except one which has three because I seemingly like it too much and I make favoritism (which is also the reason there are two Bruce Springsteen songs even if I tried not to repeat people, but it happened that they fit). Also, er, the first song for episode #2 is deliberately there for crack value. Hope you like it!

ETA: the individual song links are expired (I'll update them asap) but the comprehensive zip is available.
