SO I PUT TOGETHER AN AMELIA POND FANMIX
they cut your claws out; amy pond (/eleven)
the alter; wye oak
though i am afraid
of what it is to be alone
seventy four, seventy five; shearwater
and he won't come out alive,
with his hands so thin and white
gone, gone from the page,
and then he is gone from your eyes
it hits deep; the veils
now there's nothing keeping
my heart from breaking
song about a star; okkervil river
he’s not there,
that’s just light
that’s not yet dead
wait two hours
and watch what’ll be there instead
putting the dog to sleep; the antlers
you can't keep running out
kicking yourself off the bed
kicking yourself in the head
because you're kicking me too
runaway; the national
but i won't be a runaway
'cause i won't run
no, i won't be a runaway
what makes you think i enjoy being led to the flood?
the ticonderoga; bowerbirds
those claws will get you
those teeth will take your life,
but you won't know what's missing
this gift ain't giving, this wolf ain't worth the fight.
sway; heartless bastards
so, i stumble and i sway into the room and i fade
i hope my darkest day are behind me
i want to stay here in the sun for a while
i hope my darkest days are behind me
austere; the joy formidable
it's mischief to turn,
your ship to send off
puppets and gowns,
we'll ransack this town,
i'd rescue you now
DOWNLOAD Once upon a time, somebody somewhere mentioned Amelia Pond and then I got trapped in a black hole of anger and frustration with her s6 arc and then this happened as a result. Also, obviously I lied because this is kind of an Amy/Eleven mix too because WHO AM I I can't help but view this series in a Doctor/Companion context always. But this is still largely about Amelia Pond and her face and her feelings and me trying to reclaim her arc in a not fucked up way. The first several songs are really closely tied to the first two-parter and Amy dealing with the Doctor's death. And then it becomes about her disillusionment with the Doctor because I want her to be ANGRY ACTUALLY LEGITIMATELY ANGRY at what he's doing to her and keeping from her this series... and then culminates with her leaving on her own terms. So basically everything Moffat will never give me!
ALSO BEFORE ANYONE YELLS AT ME--the Wye Oak song is supposed to be Alter not Altar, SO THERE. And let's be honest, I can barely make out the lyrics but it's all about (to me) discord and dissonant sounds coming together from different directions AND THAT IS SO AMYYYYYY OKAY. Um, this whole mix didn't really turn out how I expected it to, but I am super attached to the Heartless Bastards song. Nothing screams Amy Pond more than bluesy, female-fronted garage rock.
anyway. HAVE I BEEN BLATHERING ON FOR TOO LONG? yes.
