Song Title / Lyrics Fic Titling Meme
So there's a meme going around where you list all your fics that have been titled after a song title or lyrics from a song, and I do this so much it's ridiculous. I kind of wanted to throw a list together just to have one! Reverse order because I'm too lazy to start from the last page and go forwards!
For Blue Skies - Song of the same name by Strays Don't Sleep.
Your Ex-Lover Is Dead - Song of the same name by Stars.
what stays and what fades away - A line from "No Light, No Light" by Florence + The Machine.
This Year, To Save Me From Tears - A line from "Last Christmas", originally by Wham!, though the cover I worked from was Billie Piper's.
You and I - Song of the same name by Ingrid Michaelson.
would they see a poor boy? - A line from the reprise of "One Jump Ahead" in Aladdin.
A World of Laughter - A line from "It's a Small World After All". This fic was very nearly titled either "It's a Small Universe After All" or "Meanwhile, at Disneyland Clom" thanks to the Tumblr post that inspired it, LOL.
i will be your safety - A line from "Don't Leave Home" by Dido; never mind the song's about drug addiction!
Before You Break My Heart - Of course, a line from "Stop! In the Name of Love" by The Supremes; the phrase altogether was the prompt.
The Stars Are Brightly Shining - A line from "O Holy Night".
the ships have come to carry you home - A line from Annie Lennox's gorgeous "Into the West".
She's Not There - Song of the same name by The Zombies.
'Cause I am me, the universe, and you. - A line from KT Tunstall's "Universe & U".
For a Lover of Long Ago - Mildly bastardized version of the title of Justin Vernon's "Song for a Lover of Long Ago".
Didn't We Almost Have It All? - Song of the same name by the late Whitney Houston.
a little dream of me - Another bastardized title; this one from the five million versions of "Dream a Little Dream of Me".
i'm the hero of this story - A line from Regina Spektor's "Hero".
Voices on the Radio - A line from Sebastian Pigott's "Alien", the song used as Kai's in the show.
And In the Ocean We'll Hold Hands - A line from The Killers' "Bones."
Falling In and Out of Love - A line from The Fray's "Never Say Never". The 'verse and planned sequel, The Way It Hurts, are titled after a line in Eminem and Rihanna's "Love the Way You Lie".
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out - Song of the same name by The Smiths.
Almost Everything I Wish I'd Said the Last Time I Saw You... - Album/song of the same name by Wakey!Wakey!
Just a Little Late - A line from The Fray's "You Found Me".
I'm Looking Through You - Song of the same name by The Beatles.
Ghost - Song of the same name by Robyn Dell'Unto.
A Mark, A Brand, A Scar - A slightly bastardized version of a Dashboard Confessional album title.
Across the Universe - Name of the 'verse; song of the same name by The Beatles. Should I ever expand that snippet, it will be titled after Ben Broussard's "Hitting the Ground".
Look After You - Some of the same name by The Fray.
Itch to Scratch - A line from "Touch-a Touch-a Touch-a Touch Me" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
All of you should do this one if you've got fics of your own titled after songs or lyrics--I'd love to see your lists! :D
