yesterday, today and tomorrow: a duck/dan fanmix

[phineasjones]

i've decided to act in a hobbitty fashion and give a little something out on my birthday. this is the duck/dan mix i've been working on forever and ever. time to let it go. thanks to many for the inspiration to include some of these songs - especially inkjunket who is the bestest fanmixer ever. she suggested something more than this and and these hands and they are so perfect and necessary. someone suggested ordinary town. was it brooklinegirl? i've been trying to remember but the brain, it no work so good sometimes. 100,000 fireflies is from pearl_o's wilby vid. and i could probably credit every other song to someone too, since i get all my music from you guys.

anyway, here it is. download and enjoy at will.





yesterday, today and tomorrow - individual songs on box.net
yesterday, today and tomorrow - zip file at sendspace


1. ordinary town - tracy grammar and dave carter
This is an ordinary town
And the prophet stands apart
This is an ordinary town
And we brook no wayward heart
Every highway leads you prodigal back home
To the ordinary sidewalks you were born to roam

2. still - foo fighters
If you'd like to walk a while
We could waste the day
Follow me into the trees
I will lead the way
Bring some change up to the bridge
Bring some alcohol
There we'll make a final wish
Just before the fall

3. lulliby - regina spektor
i know that you cannot be here
i know that you are not mine now
looking out the window
at another window

4. something more than this - october project
Whatever you fear, whatever you hide,
whatever you carry deep inside,
there's something more than this.
Whatever you love, whatever you give,
whatever you think you need to live,
there's something more than this.

5. 100,000 fireflies - magnetic fields
I went out to the forest and caught
A hundred thousand fireflies
As they ricochet round the room
They remind me of your starry eyes
Someone else's might not have made me so sad
But this is the worst night I ever had
'cause I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me

6. ache for you - ben lee
In the rain
I'm walking slowly
there's a light
in your apartment
I don't know why
I ache for you

7. ten year night - lucy kaplansky
Open your eyes and look at me.
'Cause I have and hold this love for you.
Before this ten year night is through,
I'm telling you,
Take it from me, take it from me.

8. all these little cowboys - cory branan
Now his boots are caked with stardust
And she's soaked his shirt in tears
All his shit's out on the front lawn
It's the best he's felt in years

Cause now it's home on the range
And it's home on the dash
Nowhere's where the heart is
He just needs a place to crash.

9. into the dark - ben lee
Feelin' Better
Since I surrendered
You can't Climb
'Till you're ready to fall
You're not a land mine
You're not a gold mine
No you're not mine at all

10. my secret - anna ternheim
Today must have been one of the strangest days
I found a place where I could stay
And people say that it will kill me,
But they don't understand
People never do, but it makes sense to me
To be senseless to change my plans for you
It's a new secret I have found

11. and these hands - rose polenzani
These fieldish flowers that I bring to you
and rare coins to fill the vase,
these stones that are smooth from diaphanous lakes
let's lay them down together.

12. I am yours - tracy chapman
When I fall and stumble
Flat on my face
When I'm shamed and humbled
In disgrace
I am yours
If you are mine

13. on the radio - regina spektor
No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
And try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some
Someone else's heart
Pumping someone else's blood
And walking arm in arm
You hope it don't get harmed
But even if it does
You'll just do it all again

14. what a wonderful world - dan zanes and lou reed
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

It was me! quoting Dira's FINE idea of it SO being a WW song, and also that it would feed into Paul Gross' Jesus complex. FTW!

[grey853.livejournal.com]

It looks like a great mix. I took the m4a files, but I couldn't get the mp3s to download. Everytime I clicked, it'd play instead of giving me a box to download and save. Love the graphic and the song choices.

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

huh, that's weird. did you click on the left or on the plus signs on the right? the plus signs should let you dl. will you let me know if you did that and it still didn't download?

thanks!

[grey853.livejournal.com]

I clicked on the left for the m4a and it downloaded fine. I click on the far right to get the mp3s, go figure. Thanks for the hint about trying the right side. It's just weird. *g*

[grey853.livejournal.com]

Well, it's just too weird. I couldn't get it to download the mp3s at all now. Box.net hates me.

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

oh noes! what a pain in the ass. i'll let you know if i have a chance to upload this another way.

[grey853.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'd love to get the rest of your mix at some point. No rush.

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday, and thank you for the mix! (And thanks for putting up a zip on Sendspace - I could not get Box to work for me; it kept saying the folder was empty.)

[grey853.livejournal.com]

For some reason the coding's not working. Must be typing it in wrong, but if you do a search, on _wwsd_ on the Lj users, you should be able to find it.

The sendspace file has expired. Can you reload, please? *g*
