Fanmix: If I'm Not Right With You; Avengers, Clint/Coulson

[uberniftacular]

Here, finally, is the fanmix I made for avengers_rbb.
Fic: Caught in Death's Shadow by the incredible coffeebuddha.

Pairing(s): Clint Barton/Phil Coulson
Rating: PG-13 to be safe
Universe: movieverse
Warnings: No content warnings, but a mood warning in that some of the lyrics imply a depressive/potentially suicidal mindset
Summary: Clint learns how to trust, and Phil is always there to catch him
Notes: So you'll notice that the songs aren't balanced in terms of number of songs from Clint's POV vs. Phil's POV - I'm pretending that this was intentional and justifying it by saying that Clint talks too much for his own good sometimes, while Phil says less because his words are more carefully considered. Also, this mix honestly took me by surprise while I was making it: I totally wasn't expecting it to have a narrative of its own (it was initially supposed to be a fun little mix about Clint going to see a ska show, but the lyrics I was finding developed their own story). So it's been a fun ride, and I'm excited that I finally get to show it to people!

The Saddest Song – Streetlight Manifesto
And now I'm off to save the world once again
But I don't know how I'll pull it off this time
I think I'm going to drown
Now he's off to save the world once again
But he don't know how he'll pull it off this time
I just know I'm going to drown

Hopeless Case – Less Than Jake
You're giving me perspective.
It's better than mine.
And I'll still be defective
And you're wasting your time.
Truth is that I'm self-destructive,
I'm insecure, I'm out of focus.
The truth is that I've had enough,
But you still help me.
You, you don't see me that way.
You hear the words that I say.
You just tell me my heart's in the right place.
It's the world that's confused.
And it's never too late to save the hopeless case.

The Brightest Bulb Has Burned Out – Less Than Jake
So I'll let you know
If you need, somewhere to go
I'll be listening when you call
And I'll be there if you fall off
If you need someone to believe in you
I'll let you know I will

Cannonball – Five Iron Frenzy
Wind passes right through my skin as I fall down,
This furious speed will only destroy me.
Crippling and devastating momentum, approaching maximum velocity.
And this is how it's going to be, the point of it all.
'Cause this is what was meant for me, recklessly I fall.
And everyone will say it's just an accident,
Like some mishap or a tragedy.
I think that failure has a purpose,
And I don't believe it's chance if I fall.
And I know that if I ever do fall,
He will catch me.

A Better Place, A Better Time – Streetlight Manifesto
I wouldn't let you go
You could run run run run but I will follow close
Someday you will say "that's it, that's all"
But I'll be waiting there with open arms to break your fall
I know that you think that you're on your own
But just know that I'm here
And I'll lead you home
If you let me

Your Love – Less Than Jake (The Outfield cover)
I ain't got many friends left to talk to
No one's around when I'm in trouble
You know I would do anything for you
Stay the night, we'll keep it undercover
Try to stop my hands from shakin'
'Cause somethin' in my mind's not makin' sense
It's been awhile since we've been all alone
Can't hide the way I'm feelin'

Regression – Catch-22
Come take a walk with me
but if you do there is no turning back.
Come take a walk with me
but if you do there is no turning back.

The Big Sleep – Streetlight Manifesto
And if you go, I'll be gone
And you'll be left alone to live your life, as you please
But someday you'll agree that I was always meant for you
You were always meant for me and you will see... that you're impossible
You're impossible

How Do You Do It? – Goldfinger
How do you do it?
How do you put up?
How do you put up with me?
I just want to say I love you
More than I ever have, you know I do
I just want to say I need you
More than I ever have, you know I do

I Know – Save Ferris
But know I'll never ever ever treat you wrong
Been waiting for you all along
And I know
Cuz I said so
And I can’t
Just let you go

Yesterday – Mustard Plug
I know sometimes that in my past
Lost direction had to ask
I know I wouldn't ever last
Without you

Good Thing – Reel Big Fish
I've been so frustrated, bitter, mean, and jaded
I've taken for granted all the things I've got
But now that you are here this anger disappears
And I feel happy too this is sappy but it's true
You know we've got a good thing goin' and I don't wanna see it end
You know we've got a good thing goin' and I don't wanna see it end

Chin Up – Catch-22
Close your eyes real tight underneath the city lights.
You can't hear the noise below your room.
Take a real deep breath and get those feelings off your chest.
We'll work it out and wake up in each others' arms.

Wet Dog – Mad Caddies
I need your touch you're like a siren
Temptation pulls me closer I can't resist
So let me in now, cause I've been waiting
Any longer and I'm gonna explode
So tell me that you want it,
So many things I need to know
You can't hide your secrets and nothing's sacred
When we're here all alone
Tell me that you like it slow
You've gotta let me in now
It's where I want to stay
You're wrapped around me and I'll never escape
From this game we play

Talk Dirty To Me – Reel Big Fish (Poison cover)
You know I never
I've never seen you look so good
You never act the way you should
But I like it
And I know you like it too
The way that I want you
I've gotta have you
Oh yes, I do

Only One – Goldfinger
If I’m not right with you
Then I’m not right with anyone oh
I have to see this through
‘Cause I know you’re the only one
The only one

I Need to Know – Goldfinger
just tell me it's alright
and tell me I'm okay
and tell me that you're
staying here tonight

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY HERE IT IS!

[uberniftacular]

I KNOW, RIGHT? I am ridiculously excited about finally having gotten to post it!

I'm sorry to say that it's been blocked due to copyright violation. It's a pity because it looks to be six shades of awesome.

[uberniftacular]

It has? I just tried the link and I'm not seeing any copyright notices, and it looks like the download would go through okay. That's really weird. Maybe try it again and see if it was a glitch or something? Let me know if it's still not working, and I'll try to re-upload it.

Glad you like. :)

I just tried it again and, unfortunately, got the following: http://www.mediafire.com/error.php?errno=385. I've made a Spotify playlist so I could give it a listen. :) Thank you for pulling the songs together.

[uberniftacular]

Huh, that is spectacularly weird. I could try to re-upload for you if you think you want it later, just let me know. :) Sorry it's giving you so much trouble, I wish I knew what was going on.

Downloading this, thanks! It looks good. :)
