Roy Walker Fanmix (The Fall)

♦ A The Fall mix; it's pretty much entirely from Roy's point of view. ♦

= Feel free to snag the songs. I've uploaded them singly and in a zip so go for it. Just let me know if you are taking anything.
= This fanmix is my second ever, so any comments on graphics, song choice (please no negatives on this aspect), quotations, presentation, etc. is greatly appreciated.
= Rec: Some inspiration came from Youtube vids of "The Fall," particularly this beautifully compelling and stunning "Where Butterflies Never Die." Please go check that out as well and the vidder some feedback. :)




 
He's very sad; he's lost his girlfriend. The problem is not his back; it's a broken heart.
Frank Sinatra - Bang Bang (She Shot Me Down)

Bang bang, she shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Carl Mendes - Hope

And hope...
Hope is only a word
Hope is just like a bird
Flies away from us all


 
Are you trying to save my soul?And live as half a man? He couldn't do that. He gave up.
Shannon Wright - They'll Kill the Actor in the End

Everything must come to an end
Let's stay as long as we can
Everything must come to an end
They'll kill the actor in the end
Josh Groban - Let Me Fall

Someone I am
Is waiting for courage
The one I want; the one I will become
Will catch me
 

 
I don't want you to die. Don't kill him. Let him live. Let him live. We're a strange pair, aren't we?
Broken Iris - Where Butterflies Never Die

It's all the same
For the dreamers
It's all the same...
For us...
Yann Tiersen & Shannon Wright - Something to Live For

Now I can't explain
The path is newly paved
And sorrow hides its face
I've found someone to live for

Thank you for the feedback. I hope you like the songs.

I can't take all the credit for that. I think I passed by a vid on YT using that song for the movie. ;) I can't remember though.

Lovely, I especially like the art for the last track.

[identity profile] turquoisetumult.livejournal.com 2009-07-30 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! (And that final track gave me a lot of trouble. Just didn't know what to do with it, so I'm glad it works!)

Hope you enjoy the songs!

The art work is amazing! Getting the songs right now.

Btw, I love your Angel banner. That quote is just gold.

Thank you! I hope you enjoy the songs! :)

Thanks so much! That quote IS honestly amazing. They just don't write fictional heroes like they used to. :(

I really like this concept! I'm glad you used the Frank Sinatra version of that song. It feels like it is on the same wavelength as the movie, so it goes really well. :)

The art is really great for all of the songs, as well. XD

I'm taking all, thanks for such a great mix. :D

Well, to be truthful, I wanted a version that was sung by a man since this is from Roy's POV, but yes, it's definitely a plus that Frankie sings it, thus making it very old-fashioned and perfect for the time period of The Fall. :)

Thanks so much for the compliment on the artwork. I'm glad you like it!

Thank YOU for the feedback! Hope you enjoy it!

Really fantastic work. :)

You've seen "The Fall?" Fantastic film, innit?

And thank you so much! I'm glad you like it and feel free to snag the songs. :)

A little late, but love this movie, love this fanmix -- definitely downloading. :) Perfect song choices.

I ♥ this movie like no other as well! Seriously, the best thing I've seen in a looong time.

I'm glad you think the song choices work! Thank you so much for the feedback (better late than never! ;))

Tardy to the party, but this is gorgeous.

Aw, thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it (glad to see more people who have seen this amazing movie!)

And tardy comments are even awesomer than early comments. :)
