Lay It All Down: A Beloved Fanmix

1. Shelter From the Storm – Bob Dylan (m4a)
[Amy Denver]
I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail,
Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail,
Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."

2. On Love, In Sadness – Jason Mraz
[Baby Suggs, holy]
Sing about that oh love it's a brittle madness, I sing about it in all my sadness,
It's not falsified to say that I found God so,
Inevitably, well it still exists, so pale and fine I can't dismiss,
And I won't resist and if I die well at least I tried.

3. That’s the Way Love Is – Marvin Gaye
[Paul D.]
I know you're walkin' down a lonesome road,
And your heart is carryin' a heavy load,
I know you feel like you ain't got a friend
And your whole world's cavin' in
Ah, but now is the time to be strong
You better forget him now that he's gone

4. I Me Mine – The Beatles
[Beloved]
All through the day, I me mine
I me mine, I me mine
All through the night, I me mine
I me mine, I me mine
Now they're frightened of leaving it,
Everyone's weaving it,
Coming on strong all the time,
All through the day, I me mine.

5. Smile Like You Mean It – Tally Hall
[Sethe]
And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant,
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in.

6. Tortured, Tangled Hearts – Dixie Chicks
[Sethe/ Halle]
Well, a blast of confusion coupled with delusion
Makes the best made plans sometimes fail,
They wined and they dined, had peace of mind,
She bought a gown and he rented tails,
But the mighty cloud of destiny came driftin' through the gates,
And busted up what could have been a perfect, hopeless case.

7. They All Laughed – Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong
[Sixo]
They laughed at me wanting you,
Said I was reaching for the moon,
But oh, you came through,
Now they'll have to change their tune.

8. My Little Corner of the World – Yo La Tengo
[Denver]
You'll soon forget that there's any other place,
Tonight, my love, we'll share a sweet embrace.

9. Sugar Magnolia – Grateful Dead (m4a)
[Brother/Choke Tree]
She's got everything delightful,
She's got everything I need,
A breeze in the pines and the sun and bright moonlight,
Lazin' in the sunlight, yes indeed.

10. I Want You (She’s So Heavy) – The Beatles (m4a)
[Paul D.]
I want you,
I want you so bad,
I want you,
I want you so bad,
It's driving me mad,
It's driving me mad.

11. The Secrets in the Telling – Dashboard Confessional
[Sethe/Beloved]
We love in secret names
We hide within our veins,
The things that keep us bound to one another.

12. Paint it Black – The Rolling Stones (m4a)
[Baby Suggs]
I look inside myself and see my heart is black,
I see my red door and it has been painted black,
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts,
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black.

13. One Too Many Mornings – Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash
[Sethe]
From the crossroads of my doorstep
My eyes start to fade,
As I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid,
An' I gaze back to the street,
The sidewalk, and the sign,
And I'm one too many mornings
An' a thousand miles behind.

14. The Fox in the Snow – Belle & Sebastian
[Denver/Stamp Paid/Beloved]
Girl in the snow, where do you go
To find someone who will do?
To tell someone all the truth before it kills you?
They listen to your crazy laugh,
Before you hang a right
And disappear from sight.

Bonus Track
15.Pet Sematary - The Ramones (m4a)

I'm snagging some songs when I get home... this looks great!

Thanks!

I love fanmixes, so I am very excited about this! Plus, it reminds me of my anger that the library used to have "I Me Mine" (George's autobiography) and now they do not. I did not know that it was a song, and now I must download it (and all of the rest of them, well.. except for Paint It Black and I Want You (She's So Heavy) and that Mraz business!) Yay! New music!

Also, why is this tagged "homework"? Who do you think you're fooling with that business?

[barkinmad.livejournal.com]

Yay! I didn't know you liked fanmixes especially mine. It is! I really like it, although it's not in my top three. I reserve those spots for "Across the Universe", "Because" and "Something". And hey! That Mraz song is actually REALLY good and relevant to the book! It's probably one of his best.

And it's tagged homework because I actually made the mix for English class. We had to do a ~*creative*~ assignment, and I was a fanmix mood, so I made one. I actually wrote on one of the pages "Beloved Fanmix", but...oh well, hopefully he won't notice...

[jimmiefearsylar.livejournal.com]

Yes. I am all about the fanmix, as it is free music gives me a chance to hear stuff that I have never heard before. I am always looking for new stuff to listen to, so to get a whole cd of new stuff at a time? Excellent!

I don't know what my top three are. Right now I am really into "I Am The Walrus" (I am listening to it now!) and "A Day In The Life", but I think my overall favorites are "Something", "Get Back", "Come Together", "Helter Skelter", "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". That is along list, but I can't choose between them, so do not try to make me! LOL tangent...

Oh, so it's about the book? See, I had no idea about that. I mean, the thought crossed my mind, but then I was like "it seems I would have heard of that." But I have been missing a lot lately, so I will blame it on that. Okay, I will get the Mraz song too, but that is because I was very late noticing the Full CD link.
