Well, here it is--my official playlist for Children of the Apocalypse.
No, some don't make the slightest bit of sense, I'm sure. Others are very important and involve particular characters. Many will look very familiar from other soundtracks, lol. Sorry about that.
- If I Fall ~ Tara MacLean
(This is like the official theme song, or would have been if I actually made CotA a TV show
and got the rights to place the song to the opening credits.)
- Here With Me ~ Sarah Brightman (yeah, it's the song by Dido)
(Since when have I written something that didn't use that in the soundtrack?)
"I am what I am//I'll do what I want//But I can't hide"
- Duvet ~ Boa (either acoustic or normal version...another fave of mine, lol)
"And you don't seem the lying kind//A shame that I can read your mind//
And all the things that I read there//Candle-lit smiles that we both shared//
And you know I don't mean to hurt you//And you know that it means too much//
And you don't even feel a thing."
- Do What You Have To Do ~ Sarah McLachlan
(Will be very relevant later)
"I know I can't be with you//I do what I have to do"
- The Blower's Daughter ~ Damien Rice
(A break-up song, kind of obsessive, therefore very relevant to my angsty story, lol)
- (I Hate) Everything About You ~ Three Days Grace
"I hate everything about you//Why do I love you?"
- Only One ~ Yellowcard
- Breathing ~ Lifehouse
(C'mon, this one just SCREAMS Levi loves Sage, lol)
- There Is ~ Boxcar Racer
(This always struck me as the type of song that plays in the background when two young-love-ish characters
get down to confessing their feelings and kissing)
- Innocence ~ Chihiro Onitsuka
(Lyrics are all in Japanese, so I'll find you the translated lyrics sometime)
- Walk On the Moon ~ Dayna Manning
(Genevieve and a love interest song)
"Don't tell me who will stay, or who will walk away//
Don't tell me who to love, I'll love you anyway"
- Even In Death ~ Evanescence
"Even in death, our love goes on."
- I Can't Take My Eyes Off of You ~ Melanie Doane
(I always saw this as a Sage/Hayden song)
- Crazy Love ~ Van Morrison
(Sage and Hayden's song...seriously, it's in the story)
- Pretty Life ~ Jakalope
- Stupid ~ Sarah McLachlan
(Hmm, a foolish affair in someone's future?)
"How stupid could I be?//A simpelton could see//That you're no good for me//
But you're the only one I see"
- Sometimes Want To Die ~ Joydrop
(About Gen and her longtime crush, Janine...I suppose. I just like that song.)
"I still don't even know you//I still wish that I could hold you//I sometimes wanna die"
- Bizarre Love Triangle ~ Frente
- How ~ Lisa Loeb
"I didn't come this far//for you to make this hard for me"
- Control ~ Poe
(Hmm, I'd probably also consider this as a possible theme song)
- Haunted ~ Evanescence
- Disarm ~ Smashing Pumpkins
"The killer in me is the killer in you"
- Twilight ~ Boa
- Sympathetic Character ~ Alanis Morissette
(Kind of Gen/Michael in that mutual dislike thing, lol...I dunno, just always reminded me of them)
"I have as much rage as you have//I have as much pain as you do//
I've lived as much hell as you have//and i've kept mine bubbling under for you"
- Alone In the Universe ~ David Usher
- Outside ~ Staind
"I'm on the outside//I'm looking in//I can see through you, see your true colours//
Inside you're ugly//Ugly like me//I can see through you, see the real you"
- Strong ~ Velvet Chain
- Breathe Me ~ Sia
- Constant Lover ~ Magneta Lane
- Walking Wounded ~ The Tea Party
- Infection ~ Chihiro Onitsuka
(A nice twisted love song...wonder who's that for...)
- This Love ~ Sarah Brightman
"This love, this love is a strange love"
- Temptation Waits ~ Garbage
- Believe Me ~ Moist
"I'm burning up your pictures//Lay you in this shallow grave"
- I Love You ~ Sarah McLachlan
"I forgot to tell you I love you//The night's too long and cold here without you//
I grieve in my condition//For I cannot find the words to say I need you so"
- I'll Remember ~ Sophie Zelmani
- Eden ~ Sarah Brightman
- Fade ~ Staind
- My Way Out ~ David Usher
- Release ~ The Tea Party
"Don't want to hurt you//I need to make you see//If I desert you now//It's just to make you see//
I want you to be free//I want you to be free from me"
- Just Another Girl ~ Pete Yorn
- Precious Illusions ~ Alanis Morissette
- Sandalwood ~ Lisa Loeb
- Charge ~ Angie Hart
- Straight, No Chaser ~ Bush
- Tonight and the Reast of My Life ~ Nina Gordon
"Down to the earth I fell//With dripping wings//Heavy things won't fly"
- Beautiful Blue ~ Holly McNarland
- Leave It Alone ~ Moist
(A funeral song, end of Part One)
"I'd walk the water to get back to you//And when I was complete"
- Hell & Bliss ~ Majandra Delfino
(Love this song--glad I finally have a ship to use it with, lol)
- Pick Up the Phone ~ The Notwist
- A Way With Me ~ The AM Project
(Merri & Thad's song)
