A song for Eugenides/Attolia...
I realized I don't really contribute that much to this comm, so I decided I'll mention a song I recently found by one of my favorite Christian singers.
It's called The Thief.
The Thief
Your eyes are full
Full of the future of us
The air changes as you look across
At me in that wondering way
It is as if
I knew you before we spoke
Do our hearts know something we don't?
Conspiring, converging without giving us any say
You, sing me to sleep
Talk down my walls
Look through my windows as I wait
You could be the thief
I give the key to
You're ruining me
With secrets and gestures and looks
With sonnets from second-hand books
Playing the chords in me nobody knew how to play
You, sing me to sleep
Talk down my walls
Look through my windows as I wait
You could be the thief
I give the key to
It fits in your hand like the water in rain
It unlocks our two different selves
And shows we are the same
Rather than wait 'til I put me out for the taking
You're breaking
You're breaking into my heart
And I'm letting you
Your eyes are full
Full of the future of us
(I also have the actual download if anybody wants it.)
So yeah, what do you think? I dunno, the title makes it seem like it's too good to be true, but I think the lyrics work. =)
I'd also like to know what other songs remind you of any character or the series in general. =D

I made a fanmix (http://community.livejournal.com/sounis/258216.html#cutid1) for Gen and Attolia a while ago. While I do like all of the songs and I think there are things about them that fit the pairing, there are a few that really scream this series to me: Let Somebody In (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB4cAyPylX8) by The Magic Numbers is SO Attolia, and also The Queen and the Soldier (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JIu_ptKHcI) by Suzanna Vega. The latter is such a beautiful song, and I think the queen in the song is so much like Attolia: young, ruthless, yet polite and soft in a way, and having hidden her humanity.

Oh oh, I've seen that fanmix! And I agree, The Queen and the Soldier really emphasized the character the most. =)

I've been looking all over for fanmixes of those two, and I would really love to listen to yours, but I can't access any of the links. Could you send me a copy or link that would work for me?
Please and thank you!

I suggested this one a few months ago on one of the music posts, too. It is SO SO APPROPRIATE.
