I'm a little embarrassed to admit this, but I've had a whole Gideon playlist on my phone since the first book. I've got about 40 songs on it, but here are some highlights.

 

The VLA - "When I am Through with You"

It works in a literal sense for all the women Gideon left in his wake, but it also applies to Eva, too, in a softer way.

 

When I am through with you,
There won't be anything left.
When I am through with you.

Oh come back now where did you go?
No need to cower, don't know
If i can even turn your light on

Hello, Daisy, is that you 
Hiding in the grass?
I've come to pluck you, 
I'm gonna pluck you right in half.

 

When I am through with you,

There won't be anything left.

 

 

Another, more obvious choice, Sarah Mclachlin - "Angel"

Not sure if anyone suggested that one yet, but it's so perfect for Gideon.

 

in the arms of the angel

fly away from here

from this dark cold hotel room

and the endlessness that you fear

you are pulled from the wreckage

of your silent reverie

you're in the arms of the angel

may you find some comfort here

 

 

Joseph Arthur - "Honey and the Moon"

So perfect for when Gideon first meets Eva with that whole "I want to **** you" line

 

Don't know why I'm still afraid

If you weren't real I would make you up

now

I wish that I could follow through

I know that your love is true

and deep as the sea

but right now 

everything you want is wrong,

and right now 

all your dreams are waking up,

and right now

I wish I could follow you

to the shores of freedom,

where no one lives.

 

 

I could go on with the rest of my playlist, but I'll spare everyone before this post gets too long!

Mel Carter Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me

Hold me, hold me

And never let me go until you've told me, told me

What I want to know and then just hold me, hold me

Make me tell you I'm in love with you

Thrill me (thrill me), thrill me (thrill me)

Walk me down the lane where shadows

will be (will be) will be (will be)

Hiding lovers just the same as we'll be, we'll be

When you make me tell you I love you

They told me "Be sensible with your new love"

"Don't be fooled, thinking this is the last you'll find"

But they never stood in the dark with you, love

When you take me in your arms

and drive me slowly out of my mind

Kiss me (kiss me), kiss me (kiss me)

And when you do, I'll know that you

will miss me (miss me), miss me (miss me)

If we ever say "Adieu", so kiss me, kiss me

Make me tell you I'm in love with you

(Kiss me) kiss me, (kiss me) kiss me

When you do, I'll know that you will

miss me (miss me), miss me (miss me)

If we ever say "Adieu" so kiss me, kiss me

Make me tell you I'm in love with you

(Hold me, thrill me)

(Never, never, never let me go)

(Hold me, thrill me, never, never, never let me go)

(Fade...)

i love that song

Hi Everyone,

I was thinking about the journey that Gideon and Eva have taken together.  I came across this song and I thought that it might fit Gideon's journey.  It is by Chicago:

 

"You're The Inspiration"

 

You know our love was meant to be
The kind of love that lasts forever
And I want you here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind, in my heart
In my soul

Baby

[Chorus:]
You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you

And I know, yes I know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when we're together
And I know that I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
Always on my mind, in my heart in my soul

[Chorus x3]

What does everyone think?
 

[GiGi]

Hi Everyone,

Another forum member had suggested this song:  I Belong to You by Eros Ramazzoti Featuring Anastacia. 

 

"I Belong To You"

 

adesso no non voglio
più difendermi
supererò dentro
di me gli ostacoli...
i miei momenti più
difficili per te

there is no reason
there's no rhyme:
it's crystal clear
I hear you voice and all
the darkness disappears
every time I look
into your eyes
you make me love you

questo inverno finirà
I do truly love you
fuori e dentro me
how you make me love you
con le sue difficoltà
I do truly love you
I belong to you
you belong to me
forever

want you
baby I want you and
I thought that you should
know that I believe
you're the wind that's
underneath my wings
I belong to you
you belong to me

ho camminato su
pensieri ripidi
you are my fantasy
per solitudini
e deserti aridi
you are my gentle breeze
al ritmo della tua passione
oro io vivrò
and I'll never let you go
l'amore attraverserò
you're the piece
that makes me whole
le onde dei suoi attimi
I can feel you in my soul
profondi come oceani
vincerò per te
le paure che io sento

quanto bruciano dentro
le parole che non ho
più detto, sai...
want you
baby I want you and
I thought that you should
know that I believe
lampi nei silenzio siamo noi
I belong to you
you belong to me

you're the wind that's
underneath my wings
I belong to you
you belong to me
adesso io ti sento
I will belong forever
to you

In the spirit of our love of Italian, I have included both the Italian and English versions.  Enjoy!

Brandon Flowers - Crossfire Lyrics

 

Loved the title of this song ~Crossfire~

 

There's a still in the street outside your window

You're keeping secrets on your pillow

Let me inside no cause for alarm

I promise tonight not to do no harm

I promise you babe, I won't do you no harm

And we're caught up in the crossfire

Of heaven and

And we're searching for shelter

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Watching you dress as you turn down the lights

I forget all about the storm outside

Dark clouds roll their way over town

Heartache and pain came pouring down

Like hail, sleet and rain yeah they're handing it out

And we're caught up in the crossfire

Of heaven and

And we're searching for shelter

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Tell the devil that he can go back from where he came

His fiery arrows drew their beat in vain

And when the hardest part is over we'll be here

And our dreams will break the boundries of our fear

The boundries of our fear

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Lay your body down

Next to mine
