Cuddle Up: a McFleece Fanmix
Cuddle up is a mix of songs that capture the events we see at the start of Rising and hints at a realm of things we didn't... Featuring: songs of a country nature for John; a hint of cheesy 80's for Rodney; titles about pilots and scientists; images of warmth, softness, and cuddling; the obligatory hints of McSheppy angst. and far too much orange to be tasteful. Quotes, cover art and a complete zip of the tracks are all under the cut.

01 - The Scientist - Aimee Mann
I was just guessin' at numbers and figures,
Pulling the puzzles apart.
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart.
~*~
02 - The Pilot’s Song - Neal Casal
All the time you'd spent alone in your room
With all the dreams you'd set aside
They’ve all come back again and none too soon
And some might say just in time
As all your pilots died one by one
Their ashes scattered to the wind
You’ll circle far'n'wide, face towards the sun
You’ll never fly this high again
That’s when you're gonna need someone
~*~
03 - Antarctica - The Weepies
Left behind everything I knew
All the colors but bone-white and sky-blue
Hit the continent running
Engines were humming
~*~
04 - Orange Colored Sky - Natalie Cole
I was humming a tune, drinking in sunshine,
When out of an orange colored view
Wham, bam, alacazam,
I got a look at you.
~*~
05 - Passionate Kisses - Lucinda Williams
Is it too much to ask?
I want a comfortable bed that won't hurt my back
Food to fill me up, and warm clothes and all that stuff
Shouldn't I have this, Shouldn't I have this?
Shouldn't I have all of this,
And passionate kisses
~*~
06 - Cold in California - Allison Moorer
Is it cold in California?
Like I told you it would be
Do you need someone to warm you
Like I warmed you
~*~
07 - Orange Autumn Days - Sean Watkins
(Instrumental)
~*~
08 - Kiss on my List - Hall and Oates
Sometimes I forget what I'm doing
I don't forget what I want
Regret what I've done, regret you?
I couldn't go on
~*~
09 - Just Friends - Jason Reeves
Those two words are bullets in my chest
"Just friends"
~*~
10 - Love me like the World is Ending - Ben Lee
This is the first day of the future,
And all I want is you.
I wear a pair of socks you left here.
But I know nobody could ever fill your shoes.
~*~
11 - Just Hold Me - Maria Mena
If I wanted loneliness I'd choose to go
If I liked rejection I'd audition
And if I didn't love you, you would know
So why can't you just hold me,
How come it's so hard?
~*~
12 - You’ve got a Soft Place to fall - Kathy Mattea
You’ll come knocking at my door
Like you’ve always done before
And like a fool I’ll forgive it all
You’ve got a soft place to fall.
~*~
13 - Back in your Arms - Tanita Tikaram
I find shelter and warmth
but I still feel the cold without you
And I really don't want to feel that you're not here
I would be back in your arms
~*~
14 - Love will keep us Alive - Paul Carrack
I was standing all alone against the world outside
You were searching for a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you've given me the will to survive
~*~
15 - Cuddle Up - Dennis Wilson
The night has come,
cuddle up to me
Keep warm close to me
In dreams we'll dream
Making love to wake
To find we're still one
