006. just a passing moment gone; an ode to the doctor and rose
So no icons or wallpapers this weekend. Sorry. I got a cold, and then found an abandoned dog (! I know! Sad!), so I've been busy. Hopefully sometime this week I'll be able to post everything I've been working on. It's going to be a big post.
Preview ^^
What I do have is a giant Doctor/Rose fanmix I've been working on for months. It's indie-folk-rock-pop music for the most part, and the majority of songs I haven't seen on other mixes. Kind of goes through the moods after Doomsday, but it's a really nice mix to listen to in the morning. It's also pretty subtle, not all the songs would immediately make you think "Doctor! Rose!" but after listening to them, you just get it.
And....it's really long, so there's that. Give it a try, and I think you'll like it. Let me know what you think about it!

1. Four Leaf Clover
by Badly Drawn Boy
I’ll let you borrow my four leaf clover,
come on/take it with you,
you can pass it on/come on
you know I’m not the kind to say that it’s over
we’ll be rubbing shoulders once again in the sun
2. How To Fight Loneliness
by Wilco
How to fight loneliness/smile all the time
shine your teeth to meaningless
and sharpen them with lies/and whatever is going down
will follow you around/that’s how you fight loneliness
3. Calendar Girl
by Stars
I can’t live forever/I can’t always be
one day I’ll be sand on the beach by the sea
the pages keep turning/I’ll mark off each day with a cross
and I’ll laugh about all that we’ve lost
4. Guilty Hands

He’s falling hard/as cities crumble
away into the dark/and he wakes to see the fear in her eyes
oh how he loves those eyes
the blood on his guilty hands is raining on me/it leaves me cold
5. What Happens When the Heart Just Stops
by The Frames
There is a hollow in my chest/the time I won’t forget
there is no comfort in the eyes/they put us to the test
I can’t prepare myself for that/but I work it out in time
there is a love that flows between us
6. World Spins Madly On

it’s harder now that you’re away
I thought of so much more to say

You came onto me/and opened up my heart
I was hollow then/till you filled me in
now I’m empty again/I should have never let it start
9. Unsaid

And we are leaving some things unsaid
and we are breathing deeper instead
we’re both pretty sure/neither one can tell
we seem difficult/what we got is hard as hell
10. I Wasn't Prepared

Oh, when the day is blue/I’ll sit here wondering about you
oh, and I’m falling fast/all around your face in strange yellow patterns

13. I Found a Reason
by Cat Power
Oh I do believe/in all the things you say
what comes is better than what came before
14. White Passing Daisy
by Rocky Votolato
All I wanna do is turn around
I’m going down to sleep on the bottom of the ocean
because I couldn’t let go when the water hit the setting sun
passing white daisies taking turns/close the door
walk into the street/catching raindrops on your tongue
and for a minute it all stops but it won’t last man
it’s just a passing moment gone
15. Days I Had With You

Things begin, things decay/and you’ve gotta find a way
to be okay/but it you wanna spend the day
wondering what it’s all about/go and knock yourself out
19. Big Strong Girl
by Deb Talan
It’s not now or never/it’s not black, and it’s not white
anything worth anything takes more than a few days
and a long, long night/don’t push so hard against the world, no no
you can’t do it all alone, and if you could/would you really want to?
even though you’re a big strong girl/come on, come on, lay it down
20. Bittersweetheart

Well I’ve traveled around the earth/and still I wonder if I’m the first
human being who questions his worth/and ever word that you speak
makes my heart sing when it’s weak/for often this outlook on life can be bleak
21. Life on Earth

Good times come and they go/this life owes nobody happiness
only pain and sorrow/so don’t rely on the starry skies

the salt burns my skin/and your eyes were cold as the ocean
this is our day today/can you find the way back to these arms
24. I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You
by Colin Hay
I don’t want you thinking I’m unhappy
what is closer to the truth/that if I lived til I was 102
I just don’t think I’ll ever get over you
25. Darlin' Do Not Fear
by Brett Dennen
If you have a broken heart or a battered soul
find something to hold on to or to let go
to help you through the hard nights/like a flask filled with hope
darlin’ do not fear what you don’t really know
’cause it won’t last/your worries will pass
all your troubles they don’t stand a chance
and it always hurts the worst when it’s the ones we love the most

But time still goes on/and through each life of misery
everybody’s got a hold on hope/it’s the last thing that’s holding me
