Buffy/Giles Soundtrack
Consider this the soundtrack to the epic Buffy/Giles story I'll never get around to writing. It follows the story of the Watcher and Slayer after the destruction of Sunnydale, their difficult and awkward reconnection in London to fight the next big battle, and the realization that they are meant for each other.
1. Bloc Party - Pioneers
If it can be broke then it can be fixed, if it can be fused then it can be split
It's all under control
If it can be lost then it can be won, if it can be touched then it can be turned
All you need is time
We promised the world we'd tame it, what were we hoping for?
2. Magnet - Hold On
I see your face on every corner, on every street
You spend your days just waiting for your next defeat
Well, I can only tell you what I know
And all I know is that I just don't know
And it feels like it's tearing me up
Yeah, It feels like it's tearing me down
3. Ryan Adams - Wonderwall (Oasis Cover)
And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how
Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me?
And after all
You're my wonderwall
4. Depeche Mode - Precious
Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
5. Ida - Late Blues
If I get lost along the way to meet you
If I'm more than a little late
If I get caught up in circles chasing my own tail
If I trip up and fail you
If I let you down
If I let you down
I can see that injury that accompanies the passage of you
I can try to rationalize the accumulation of fear
And the dreams that draw a song in pursuit of the end of time
And the grace that illuminates the past
6. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Modern Romance*
Don’t hold on go get strong well don’t you know there is no modern romance time,
time is gone it stops, stops who we was I was wrong it never lasts and there is no
this is no modern romance and time, time is gone it never lasts stops who we was
well I was wrong it never lasts this is no there is no modern romance
*Hidden Song
Baby, I'm afraid of a lot of things
But I ain't scared of loving you.
And baby I know you're afraid of a lot of things
But don't be scared of love.
7. Aimee Mann - The Scientist (Coldplay Cover)
Come up to meet you,
Tell you I'm sorry,
You don't know how lovely you are,
I had to find you,
Tell you I need you,
Tell you I set you apart,
Tell me your secrets,
And ask me your questions,
Ah let's go back to the start,
Running in circles,
Calling tails, heads on a silence apart.
8. Frames - Love Will Tear Us Apart (Joy Division cover)
When the routine bites hard and ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed, our respect run so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again
9. Nine Inch Nails - We're In This Together
You and me
We're in this together now
None of them can stop us now
We will make it through somehow
You and me
If the world should break in two
Until the very end of me
Until the very end of you
10. Viva Voce - Alive with Pleasure
Give it some time
Give it some time
You'll make it with me
We'll be just fine
11. Kings of Convenience - Once Around The Block (Badly Drawn Boy cover)
Trying to outrun your fears
You're running to lose
Heart on your sleeve, your sole in your shoes
Take a left, a sharp left and another left
Meet me on the corner, we'll start again
