I can see it all from here - a Mix for "Drive You Mild"

Explanation:
I used to love Star Wars fanfiction - writing, reading, and betaing. Sadly, Episode III and my university coursework have diminished my previous passion, but I still hold a soft spot for stories focusing on a certain redhead and a certain oblivious Jedi.

Back in early 2005, [livejournal.com profile] obaona started posting an epic AU called Drive You Mild. The tagline? "How would two powerful, individualistic people unite? Emperor Luke Skywalker, meet Jedi Knight Mara Jade." Subtly romantic, perplexedly philosophical, and full of political intrigue, it's a wonderful read. And hopefully this mix will encourage you to do so!

I can see it all from here - a Mix for "Drive You Mild"


01. Your Good Name - Mychael Danna
(instrumental, from the film Monsoon Wedding)

02. You Are A Runner And I Am My Father's Son - Wolf Parade
I ain't no hero
in the night
I am my father's son


03. Evil Angel - Rufus Wainwright
Evil angel when you're faced with
Hatred's daggers in my honor
You're no match, no scratching hearts that no longer bleed


04. Stronger than Dirt - Tom McRae
You will never get close to me
This is who we are


05. Dark Room - Sarah Slean
(instrumental)

06. Our Swords - Band of Horses
Count on us all stepping on our own toes tonight

07. Temptation - New Order
Please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone
I'll find my soul as I go home


08. Ruler of My Heart - Irma Thomas
When you're alone
The going gets rough
Come back, come back, come back
I've had enough


09. Weather Systems - Andrew Bird
speaking to the back of his head
on the edge of her bed
i can see your blood flow
your cells grow


10. Galaxies - Laura Veirs
When you sing
Stars fill up my eyes


11. The Mist Covered Mountains / Hush Hush - Laura Cortese
Hush, Hush it's time tae be sleeping'
Hush, Hush dreams come a creepin'
Dreams of peace and freedom
So smile in your sleep bonny baby.

--Stock images from sxc.hu.
--I wanted the cover art to hint at the complexities of the story, but now it just strikes me as busy. Oh dear. There is no middle ground, I guess.
--Psst. [livejournal.com profile] gabri_jade has another lovely AU Luke/Mara story, of a different sort, called Infinite Possibilities. You should read it as well.

Enjoy!

Just stumbled across this after looking through the tags at [livejournal.com profile] fanmix. The cover art is brilliant, and the songs look great. If you have time, could you reupload this for me?
