barkinmadI have made an Inception fanmix. It started out as Arthur/Ariadne, but then the mix firmly put it's foot down and informed me that it was in fact all about Cobb/Mal. I conceded. But I still really liked what I had so far for Arthur/Ariadne, so I figured I could sort of release it as an EP. (Sorry for the repeat for those of you on my flist.)
I was honestly surprised with how many of these songs had at least one reference to sleep in all of them. Some are obvious, but others not quite so much!
Each song is uploaded individually and then in the full mix .zip at the bottom.
Hope you guys enjoy it!
1. Bookends Theme - Simon & Garfunkel
Time it was, and what a time it was, it was
A time of innocence, a time of confidences
Long ago, it must be, I have a photograph
Preserve your memories; They're all that's left you.
2. The Prettiest Thing - Norah Jones
So why does it seem
Like a picture
Hanging up on someone else's wall
Lately I just haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind.
3. Golden Slumbers - The Beatles
Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home.
4. If You Can't Sleep - She & Him
And in your dreams
I'll touch your cheek
And lay my head on your shoulder
Goodbye shadows
Goodbye shadows
5. Mr. Curiosity - Jason Mraz
Mr. Waiting, ever patient can't you see?
That I'm the same the way you left me
In a hurry to spellcheck me
And I'm underlined already in envy green and pencil red
And I've forgotten what you said
Will you stop working for the dead and return?
6. If You Are But A Dream - Frank Sinatra
If you are but a dream
I hope I never waken,
It's more than I could bear
To find that I'm forsaken.
7. Helplessly Hoping - Crosby, Stills & Nash
Love isn't lying
It's loose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And choking on hello.
8. Wedding Song - Bob Dylan & The Band
You gave me babies one, two, three, what is more, you saved my life
Eye for eye and tooth for tooth, your love cuts like a knife
My thoughts of you don’t ever rest, they’d kill me if I lie
I’d sacrifice the world for you and watch my senses die.
9. No Room to Bleed - Ben Lee
Wait on the landscape that I'm breaking
Watch as I burn my bridges down
And I've tried to run but now I'm all done
You leave me no room to bleed.
10. Different Names for the Same Thing - Death Cab for Cutie
Alone on a train aimless in wonder
An outdated map crumbled in my pocket
But I didn't care where I was going
'Cause they're all different names for the same place.
11. Exit Music (For a Film) - Radiohead
Breathe, keep breathing
Don't lose your nerve
Breathe, keep breathing
I can't do this alone.

1. I Don't Know Enough About You - Peggy Lee
I read the latest news, no buttons on my shoes
But baby, I'm confused about you,
You've got me in a spin, oh what a spin I'm in,
'Cause I don't know enough about you.
2. Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect - The Decemberists
And try one, and try two
Guess it always comes down to
All right, okay, guess it's better to turn this way.
3. Completely Pleased - Semisonic
I want to see you smiling
Weak in the knees.
4. The Way I Feel Inside - The Zombies
Should I try to hide
The way I feel inside?
5. Brand New Colony - The Postal Service
I want to take you far from the cynics in this town,
And kiss you on the mouth.
We'll cut out bodies free from the tethers of this scene.
6. A Kiss To Build A Dream On - Louis Armstrong
Give me a kiss to build a dream on
And my imagination will thrive upon that kiss.

..Hope you enjoy the sulking?! Haha, yeah, these probably aren't the happiest mixes I've ever made. But thank you so much!
