Fandom: Star Trek: The Next Generation
Content notes: Fanmix - two graphics, seven songs and selected lyrics.
Fanmixer notes: Streaming here on Grooveshark. Created for the "performance anxiety" challenge at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fan_flashworks; this work was the final one by which I earned the "Brave New Fandoms" and "Brave New Media" badges, which you can see on my profile :) Rest of the notes beneath the cut.
Summary: A Jean-Luc Picard/Beverly Crusher fanmix, inspired by the episode "Attached".
ETA: I've had to lock comments because this entry was getting hit by absurd amounts of spambots; sorry! If you'd like to leave feedback (and I'd love it if you did), please go to AO3 or the fan flashworks LJ .
I took the "post a work in a medium or fandom new to you" interpretation of the prompt, and did a double - new medium and new fandom! I've never done a fanmix before, so all constructive criticism will be most gratefully received :)
This episode was always a favourite of mine, so I really enjoyed finding songs to fit it. The mix title was taken from two different lines in the episode, both said by Picard at different points:
"Not that I'm tired of hearing your thoughts." and
"I was beginning to get used to hearing your thoughts and I find that I miss it."
On to the fanmix!
Selected Lyrics:
1. Things I’ll Never Say – Avril Lavigne
It don’t do me any good
It’s just a waste of time
What use is it to you
What’s on my mind
(...)What’s wrong with my tongue
These words keep slipping away
2. Decode – Paramore
How can I decide what's right?
When you're clouding up my mind
(...)How did we get here?
Well I used to know you so well
(...)(My thoughts you can't decode)
3. When You Say Nothing At All – Ronan Keating
Without saying a word,
You can light up the dark
(...)You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
4. Don't Speak – No Doubt
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
5. Ojos de Cielo – El Sueño de Morfeo
Apenas dices nada
Y nada es suficiente
(…)Sigo tus pisadas
Aunque a veces me pierdo
Me pierdo en mil preguntas
Y siempre acabo huyendo
Porqué salir corriendo
Si te llevo aquí adentro
Hoy te echo de menos
Pero es que tengo miedo.
You hardly say anything
And nothing is enough
(...)I follow your footsteps
Though sometimes I get lost
Lost in a thousand questions
I end up running away
Why do I run away
If I carry you inside me
Today I miss you
The thing is, I’m afraid.
6. So Close – Jon Mclaughlin
And now you're beside me
And look how far we've come
So far, we are, so close
7. Nos Rendez-Vous – Nathalie St Pier
J'étais en retard, ou toi en avance sur nos sentiments
Est-ce qu'il est trop tard pour une autre danse, une autre romance ?
Je voudrais ce soir que ça recommence mais pour plus longtemps
Plus longtemps... Mais j'ai jamais su ce qu'il fallait faire vraiment
Was I too late or were you too early at our feelings
Is it too late for another dance, another romance?
I would like it to start over tonight, but for longer
Longer...But I never knew what I really had to do

So far, we are, so close
Man, that perfectly sums up their friendship in three lines. =/
