ATTF: YOUR CLINTASHA PLAYLIST  
Hello Best Bar EVER. Today I am your host for all things Friday. Today's topic has to do with my favorite thing to do in fandom....listening to songs and assign them to characters and ships.

Seriously I could be listening to Pandora at work and all of a sudden a song comes on and I am like AHA this is perfect for Sparky or 11/River. Usually these songs inspire me to write fics and do vidlets to them....so I am gonna share with you songs I think are perfect for our favorite Couple along with the lyrics that fit the best!. Just warning if you some of the songs may same too heavy rock for you....but is the only genre I like XD with some exceptions....here we go


1) Just One Yesterday - Fall Out Boy
Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name

If heaven’s grief brings hell’s rain
Then I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I’m bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
Oh, I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I’d trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I’m bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
For just one yesterday


2) Come As You Are - Nirvana
Come as you are, as you were,
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, as an old enemy.
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend, as an old memoria
Memoria

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun


3) The World is Not Enough - Garbage
People like us
Know how to survive
There's no point in living
If you can't feel the life
We know when to kiss
And we know when to kill
If we can't have it all
Then nobody will

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start...my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart...my love


4) Skyfall - Adele

Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know I'd never be me
Without the security
Of your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we'll stand

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall


5) Without You - Breaking Benjamin
Sing something new
I have nothing left
I can't face the dark without you
There's nothing left to lose
The fight never ends
I can't face the dark without you


6) Closer - Kings of Leon
Drivin' by the strangle of vain
Showin' no mercy I'll do it again
Open up your eyes
You keep on crying, baby I'll bleed you dry
Skies are beneath me
I see a storm bubbling up from the sea
And it's coming closer


7) Forever - Firelight
I know that You can tell
When I start to let my hope fade away
I need to catch myself
Open my ears to hear You calling my name
Been fighting way too long
But I hear Your voice
You had me all along
Oh, tell me You're here
That You will watch over me forever
Oh, take hold of my heart
Show me You'll love me forever


8) Blinding - Florence + Machine
Felt it in my fist, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids
Shaking through my skull, through my spine and down through my ribs

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone
No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world


9) Wonderland - Natalia Kills (Okay yes its an upbeat pop song but it's perfect for them!)

When I lay my head down
to go to sleep at night..
My dreams consist of things
that'll make you wanna hide.
Don't let me in ya your tower.
Show me your magic powers!
I'm not afraid to face
a little bit of danger, danger!
I want the love,
the money and the perfect ending
You want the same as I, I.
So stop pretending!
I wanna show you how
good we could be together..
I wanna love you through the night,
we'll be a sweet disaster

I don't believe in fairy tales..
I don't believe in fairy tales..
I don't believe in fairy tales,
but I believe in you and me!


And there you have it my Clintasha playlist. Anyway if you have any questions on WHY I chose a certain song then please feel free to ask!

Now go ahead and post what songs you think are perfect for our assassins. It can be from rock to bubble gum pop. Hell even leave some MUSICAL PROMPTS. But remember to follow the rules.

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Oh, Clint and Natasha AND hard n heavy rock? We must be kindred spirits and will be getting along famously! Let me get some lyrics together and be right back.

Excellent topic!

I foresee a new LJ friend in the future.

Thank you!!! I thought this would be a great topic cause EVERYONE I know in the fandom world does this XD

Echoing this sentiment. I love it when rock makes playlists :) Also, every shippy playlist needs at least one Florence + the Machine song. It is law :P
[identity profile] hanorganaas.livejournal.com on November 2nd, 2013 05:56 pm (UTC)
I know Florence is completely Universal
[identity profile] spyforaday.livejournal.com on November 1st, 2013 05:37 pm (UTC)
I'm being pulled a thousand different directions today, so I'll have to do this piece-by-piece instead of an entire list. Hope that's ok. Here's my first suggestion: It's called "My Demons" from Starset. It's a rockin' tune and I love the picture it paints of Clint and Natasha's dependency on each other to get through the post-mission physical and emotional trauma(s).

Mayday! Mayday!
The ship is slowly sinking
They think I'm crazy but hey don't know the feeling.
They're all around me,
Circling like vultures
They wanna break me and wash away my colors.
(Wash away my colors!)

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything OK.
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away.
Save me if I become
My demons.

I cannot stop this sickness taking over
It takes control and drags me into nowhere
I need your help I can't fight this forever.
I know you're watching,
I can feel you out there

Take me high and I'll sing
Oh you make everything OK.
We are one in the same
Oh you take all of the pain away.
Save me if I become
My demons.

Take me over the walls below.
Fly forever.
Don't let me go.
I need a savior to heal my pain
When I become my worst enemy

This one makes me think of their early days together. Clint brings Natasha in and they work on moving beyond the negative and, while they're still performing the same acts (like assassinations), there's the perception that it's for a more "virtuous" purpose. Oh, they're trying to fight their attraction to one another, too. So, there's that…

"The High Road" from Three Days Grace

I told you I was hurt
Bleeding on the inside
I told you I was lost
In the middle of my life

There’s times I stayed alive for you
There’s times I would’ve died for you
There’s times it didn’t matter at all

Will you help me find the right way up
Or let me take the wrong way down
Will you straighten me out
Or make me take the long way around
I took the low road in
I’ll take the high road out
I’ll do whatever it takes
To be the mistake you can’t live without

Standing in the dark
I can see your shadow
You’re the only light
That’s breaking through the window

There’s times I stayed alive for you
There’s times I would’ve died for you
There’s times it didn’t matter at all

I love this topic and I love Blinding as a song for them. :) I'll have to come back in a bit with my own playlist once I'm on my home computer.
[identity profile] hanorganaas.livejournal.com on November 2nd, 2013 12:11 am (UTC)
I actually got blinding from this video:



I thought it was freaking perfect for them ever since.
[identity profile] alphaflyer.livejournal.com on November 1st, 2013 08:31 pm (UTC)
I know almost as much about "current music" as I do about the intricacies of the internet, tumblr and all those other modern media thingies -- which is to say, diddly squat.

BUT.

This video is what turned me from an Avengers fan into a C/N shipper, made me write my first Clint-Natasha fic, and contains the song I identify with them -- Placebo's "Blind." Because. :-)

LOL well i was watching this video at work (without sound) and the security guard who we hired after the burglary walked up and started talking my ear off about the Marvel movies and characters. He LOVES Hawkeye (awesome!) but it was still awkward...I was like "yeah, I really love these two characters." Acting like I am totally NOT obsessed with them, but yeah. I think he knows. lol
[identity profile] alphaflyer.livejournal.com on November 1st, 2013 11:55 pm (UTC)
I gave up on closeting my geek. I have a poster of the Avengers over my desk ...
[identity profile] sugar-fey.livejournal.com on November 1st, 2013 11:17 pm (UTC)
My Clint/Natasha playlists change according to what fic I'm writing, but Florence and the Machine's 'No Light, No Light,' 'Howl' and 'Cosmic Love' are mainstays. Natalia Kills 'Wonderland' is also perfect!

I also love Johnny Cash's cover of 'Hurt' for Clint, if I want to write something really angsty.
[identity profile] alphaflyer.livejournal.com on November 1st, 2013 11:56 pm (UTC)
I;m convinced. I will try and listen to these things on iTunes, and maybe buy one ... or two ... :-)
[identity profile] hanorganaas.livejournal.com on November 2nd, 2013 12:16 am (UTC)
That was from another video I saw. It seems so unNatasha because of the fairytale motiff but if you look between the lines you will see its perfect.

Oh hurt is good too...but everytime I hear Johnny Cash I think of Sheppard from SGA XD
[identity profile] sugar-fey.livejournal.com on November 2nd, 2013 12:19 am (UTC)
I actually have a lot of Feelings about Natasha and fairytale motifs, so Wonderland is my perfect Natasha song in a lot of ways.
[identity profile] enigma731.livejournal.com on November 2nd, 2013 01:02 am (UTC)
OKAY now that I'm on a real computer. :)

Music is so important to my creative process that I could easily talk about my writing playlists all day every day, but I'll spare you all. Here's some selections of my main Clint/Nat playlist, which I keep meaning to make an actual posted mix one of these days. For now, links.

Time is Running Out (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfGhlVcrc8U), Muse
You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction
You will be the death of me


Comes and Goes (In Waves) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0LNhIaGAUw), Greg Laswell
This one's for the lonely, the one's that seek and find
Only to be let down time after time
This one's for the torn down, the experts at the fall
Come on friends get up now you're not alone at all


Mission Bells (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oOIwlWFYeM), Matt Nathanson
What kind of fool thinks love's a prison
Or a handicap
Only says goodbye
Sinking fast in the rocky waters of alcatraz
His friends said suicide
The only one that's left to trust
My faithless heart wasted us
I had a dream you died
And I just wanna be with you tonight


Ooh La La (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uco-2V4ytYQ), Goldfrapp
Coils up and round me
Teasing your poetry
Switch me on, turn me up
Oh child of Venus
You're just made for love


(This one's my smut-writing song, in case you couldn't tell. ;) )

Burning Bridges (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0a6wrlLqmY), OneRepublic
I, I keep on running
I’m building bridges that I know you never wanted
Look for my heart
You stole it away
Now on every single road that I could take
Listen, I want you to burn my bridges down
I said, I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on Fire

I'm just commenting to say that I love that you used the word Sparky. That is all. ;)
[identity profile] hanorganaas.livejournal.com on November 2nd, 2013 05:57 pm (UTC)
Sparky is flawless okay ;)
