Frankenmix 13.0 [May 07]
Midnight Predator Mix

Select a book you have recently read, or one of your favorite books. Now imagine it was a movie! Now, pick out (at least) ten songs that would be on that soundtrack.

Midnight Predator, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes

Each song roughly lines up with a chapter from the book, but the "titles" are my addition.

1. The Fight: “This Girl is Taking Bets” – Thea Gilmore
She’s the ashes of the people
That you really meant to be
This girl’s the resurrection
She’s the comeback

2. The Proposition: “32 Flavors” – Ani DiFranco
I'm not trying to give my life meaning
By demeaning you
And I would like to state for the record
I did everything that I could do

3. Midnight: “Symphonie Fantastique – March to the Scaffold” – Hector Berlioz

4. Jeshickah: “Smooth” – Santana
And if you say this life ain't good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you're so smooth

5. Jaguar: “For the Restless” – Tom McRae
So for the restless
Not the peaceful sleeper
This song's for you

6. Feeding: “Crush” – Garbage
I will twist the knife
And bleed my aching heart
I’ll tear it apart

7. Daryl: “Down in the Park” – Foo Fighters
Down in the park
Where the chant is Death, Death, Death
'Til sun cries morning

8. The Courtyard: “I Am Yours” – Tracy Chapman
When all my hopes and dreams
Have been betrayed
I stand before you
My hands are empty

9. The Dream: “Water to Sky” – Thea Gilmore
They dragged her out to the lakeside stones
Take her to the frozen earth, God
And they tore her skin until the light was gone
Take her from the water to sky, God
Take her from the water to sky

10. The Kiss: “Mouth” – Merril Bainbridge
Would it be my fault
If I could turn you on?
Would I be so bad
If I could turn you on?

11. In the Kitchen: “Virgin State of Mind” – K’s Choice
Where can I run to
Where can I hide
Who will I turn to
Now I'm in a virgin state of mind

12. Discovered: “Woke Up This Morning” – A3
You're one in a million
You've got to burn to shine,
But you were born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes.

13. Chained: “The Show Must Go On” – David Brown
I feel everything, but I'm not sure
That I feel anything is just my luck
Everything is just a show
We made our entrance then we go

14. Escape: “Rescue Me” – The Alarm
Running all my life
Running all my day
Running through the night
Seems like forever

15. The Real World: “Better Things” – Dar Williams
Here's hoping all the days ahead
Won't be as bitter as the ones behind you.
Be an optimist instead,
And somehow happiness will find you.

16. Lessons: “Back to the Middle” – India Arie
And now she's been introduced to confidence
She doesn't see, that she is bordering on arrogance
When will she learn, to come back to the middle

17. The Rematch: “Not a Pretty Girl” – Ani DiFranco
I am not a pretty girl
That is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distess
And I don't need to be rescued

18. The Fire: “Amnesia” – Chumbawamba
Burns are red, bruises blue
Out with the old, cheated by the new

19. Daryl Defeated: “Control” – Poe
All those things
That you taught me to fear
I've got them in my garden now
And you're not welcome here

20. Freedom: “Unwritten” – Natasha Bedingfield
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
