24 Hours - Athlete

It's not over, it's not over
We've still got twenty four hours


Reel Me In - Aqualung

Don't listen to the TV
Don't listen to the radio
Don't let anybody tell you
That this old ship is going down


Smokers Outside Hospital Doors - The Editors (acoustic)

Say goodbye to everyone
You have ever known
You are not gonna see them ever again


All Those Days Are Gone - Jump, Little Children

All those days are gone
As far as the stars are away
From the mid-day sun


Afraid of Everyone - The National

I'll defend my family with my orange umbrella
I'm afraid of everyone, I'm afraid of everyone


Numb - David Usher

Tell me do you pray for morning?
Tell me does it hurt just waking?
Tell me have you lost the reasons you ever wanted to fight?


Well-Worn Hand - The Editors

Let's lock ourselves away
We'll never, ever step outside
We'll curl up in a ball and hide


Fear - Benjy Ferree

There's a stranger in the lobby
There were footsteps on the roof
But there is no proof or reason not to hide


Sleep - My Chemical Romance

Sometimes I see flames
And sometimes I see people that I love dying


White Flags - Our Lady Peace

We're raising our white flags and holding our breath
But no retreat and no surrendering


Fight Outta You - Ben Harper

Don't let it take the fight outta you
Don't believe the headlines
Check it for yourself sometimes


Soldier On - The Temper Trap

Don't think about it at all
Just keep your head low
Don't think about it at all


Breakable - Ingrid Michaelson

And we are so fragile
And our cracking bones make noise


An End Has a Start - The Editors (acoustic)

You'll lose everything
By the end


Where Are We Going From Here - Blackmoore's Night

But who do you ask, when no one really knows
Where we are going from here

Post-apocalyptic mixes are the best! *is excited* I'm just now realizing that my TWSam mix is pretty much a mash-up of all your themes. Steve, Cas, living in a post-apocalyptic world, Kezef... :D

I am so looking forward to your mix, you have no idea!

And you know I only made so many mixes because I had thousands of songs and couldn't narrow the list down. If I could've put more songs from the other fanmixes into the actual TWSaM fanmix, I would've. Eh, can't complain, though, because I'm very happy with them all.

I always love post-apocalyptic mixes, they make me feel prepared for the unpreparable. Plus it's always nice to find a mix with a few songs I know I like and a few I've never heard of for something new.

Thanks for sharing this. :)

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

Thanks for downloading, and I hope you like the new songs :)

Excellent mix! I think I need some music like this right now, and I only have a handful of these songs. Downloading right now.

And on a totally unrelated note, I love your jumping Santa icon. xD

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

Eee! Thank you! I hope you enjoy the mix :D

The Santa icon is by gypsy_owl and truly made of win.

I finally got around to listening to this, and I have to say I love it! It flows nicely and manages to convey a dreary, hopeless post-apocalyptic mood without being a total downer (especially with more energetic songs like Those Days Are Gone thrown in, as well as some of the song lyrics about fighting back against overwhelming odds). I especially love the use of the acoustic songs.

So thanks again for the great mix! :D And also for the icon maker info, haha.

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

Aw, that's very kind of you! It's really nice to hear what listeners think about the mix.
