chibirhm | You gathered my dreams in when they all blew away and tricked them back into me.

Well, it took me eight hours, but I finally finished the (un)Official Veronica Mars soundtrack for season 1. What took me eight hours was not making the track list, that's been sitting around as a labor of love for a rather long time - it was making the cover art. I hate cover art. It seems so simple, but in fact it is the devil incarnate. Anyways, the art is very simple, and totally did not take me eight hours, but my creative process needs some help. Or speed. I tried to make the music as true to the kind of music used in the actual show, and I may or may not have failed.

And no matter how much you ask, I will never, ever, ever make a .zip file. I hate .zip files. If someone else wants to make a .zip file, they can. Though if that person is you, you need a life. Just saying.

Hidden Camera Show - Tom McRae // 1x01 - Pilot
If you love, bury it deep
When you talk, know that talk is cheap
Swallow your tongue, this is not your fight
It's braver sometimes just to run
And it's the cars on the highway, it's the drunks singing 'my way'
We're all caught in a hidden camera show
And it's the blink of a shutter, it's the hitman in the gutter
We're all caught in a hidden camera show, and I close my eyes
Turn my face to the sky - I won't smile for your hidden camera show

Belong - Remy Zero // 1x01 - Pilot
Remember how it was when we belonged together
And I thought we were crazy, but we were so strong together
And this world you gave me, I thought we'd go on forever
I know we always belonged together
And isn't that strange -
All these things I thought would never change
And we had it all

Diggin' Your Scene - Smash Mouth // 1x02 - Credit Where Credit's Due
Tell me why we're all gluttons for pain
The girl is totally insane
She doesn't know the meaning of tame, still I can't put out the flame
Hey hey I wanna play on the team that you despise
...
I'm so diggin' your scene
My friends tell me I should run,
They say they think she's got a gun, but that just only turns me on
Right on, right on, right on.

Perfect (Acoustic) - Alanis Morissette // 1x03 - Meet John Smith
I'll make you what I never was
If you're the best, then maybe so am I
Compared to him compared to her
I'm doing this for your own damn good
You'll make up for what I blew
What's the problem, why are you crying?
Be a good boy, push a little farther now
That wasn't fast enough to make us happy
We'll love you just the way you are if you're perfect.

A Lifetime - Better Than Ezra // 1x04 - Wrath of Con
I went to my room and played that disc that you'd given me,
And I shut my eyes, I swear I could hear the sea.
When we were standing on the hood of your car
Singing out loud when the sun came up.
And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind like I thought she would.
And that R.E.M. song was playing In my mind.
And three and a half minutes, three and a half minutes felt like a lifetime.

Forever Young - Youth Group // 1x04 - Wrath of Con
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Can we have sex forever?
Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever,
forever, forever
Some are like water, some are like the heat,
Some are a melody and some are the beat,
Sooner or later they'll all be gone,
Why don't they stay young?

You Know - Athlete // 1x08 - Like a Virgin
You are loved and you know you are
Yeah, you know you know you know you are
And you know you know you know you are
You'll endure and you know you will
Yeah, you know you know you know you will
And you know you know you know you will
But you can't count it on your fingers 'cause there's more than you think
You can't use your head to figure 'cause there's much too much
For our little minds to deal with, so lets get it up.

16, Maybe Less - Iron & Wine // 1x12 - Clash of the Tritons
Call it predictable, yesterday my dream was of you
Beyond the ridge to the west the sun had left the sky
Between the trees and the pond you put your hand in mine
Said time has bridled it's bow, but I remember you too
And now in autumn time, lullaby
Sing our newborn love to sleep
I dreamed that I traveled and found you there
In the woods, morning on Christmas Eve
Waiting.

It's Good To Be In Love - Frou Frou // 1x13 - Ruskie Business
It's good to be in love, it really does suit you
Just like everything
I'm happy your in love, 'cause every color goes where you do
I feel so powerless, I've got to stop it somehow
Oh come on what can I do?
Why's it happening? How's it happening without me?
Why's it happening? How's it happening that he feels it without me?

Family Affair - Abra Moore // 1x16 - Betty and Veronica
When everything's a bust, when everything keeps loosing my trust,
Where do we begin with this unhappy ending?
Where do we begin after all that we've done?
How do we begin to say I forgive you?
And how do we begin to repair this family affair?
I think about the never-ending way that my day never seems to want to end
I think about the loneliness of loosing a friend.
Don't take it away from me,
Don't take away the one love that matters.
And I'll get well, you'll see,
You're all I have, you're my family.

How To Be Dead - Snow Patrol // 1x17 - Kanes and Abel's
Why can't you shoulder the blame
Cause both my shoulders are heavy
From the weight of us both
You're a big boy now, so let's not talk about growth
You've not heard a single word I have said, oh my god.
Please take it easy it can't all be my fault
I haven't made half the mistakes
That you've listed so far.

Beautiful Madness - Bell X1 // 1x19 - Hot Dogs
I lay siege to your fortress, but you'll never give in
No, you'll just change your mind
Your beautiful madness, my beautiful grief
Your dreams are my torture, your dreams my relief
You're mad to burn mad to fly mad to be saved
And I stumble through the darkness looking for the day.

Big Machine - Goo Goo Dolls // 1x21 - A Trip to the Dentist
Now your world is way too fast, nothing's real and nothing lasts
And I'm aware - I'm in love but you don't care
Turn your anger into lust
I'm still here but you don't trust at all, and I'll be waiting
Love and sex and loneliness, take what's yours and leave the rest
So I'll survive - God, it's good to be alive
I'm torn in pieces, I'm blind and waiting for
My heart is reeling, and I'm blind and waiting for you.

Cry - James Blunt // 1x21 - A Trip to the Dentist
Do you see the truth through all their lies?
Do you see the world through troubled eyes?
And if you want to talk about it anymore,lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.

I have seen birth, I have seen death, lived to see a lover's final breath.
Do you see my guilt? Should I feel fright? Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?
And if you want to talk about it once again, on you I depend. I'll cry on your shoulder.
You're a friend.

Ooh Child - Beth Orton // 1x22 - Leave it to Beaver
Ooh child things are gonna get easier
Ooh child things'll get brighter
Ooh child things are gonna get easier
Ooh child things'll get brighter.

Someday yeah, we'll put it together and we'll get it undone
Someday when your head is much lighter
Someday yeah, we'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Someday when the world is much brighter.

Highschool Lover - Air // 1x22 - Leave it to Beaver
