Tagging @lavenderandvanilla before I’ve said another word, because she’s awesome at this. ❤
I’m making a list of Valentine’s prompts that can go free to good homes. I want to include a section of songs that are particularly suitable for the two of them.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Huge thanks for the help!
(looks at the three pages of song drabble ideas in my notebook, thinks that you are going to regret asking…)
Let’s start with Greg singing ‘Something Stupid’ by Frank and Nancy Sinatra.
Or ‘At Last’ by Etta James.
Or if you like the eighties, how about ‘How Will I Know?’ by Whitney Houston or ‘What’s Love Got to Do With It’ by Tina Turner.
‘My Life’ by The Beatles
‘Thinking Out Loud’ by Ed Sheeran
… should I go on? :”)
Ohhh that’s mine.. I should just get out of the bed.. but I’m lazy today…
-truly, madly, deeply -Savage Garden ( old)
– i need you tonight-inxs (old)
– cover me – Depeche Mode (new album)
-i wil always love you- Whitney Huston ( hi @meredelicious )
-kiss me – ed sheeran
– walking in my shoes – Depeche Mode (old)
-somebody- Depeche Mode (old)
-Inner smile- Texas (old)
I’ve got tons of songs.. i’ll add more in a few hours
@daynaan I see your ‘Truly Madly Deeply’ and raise you ‘I Knew I Loved You’ by Savage Garden
And may I throw in ‘I Think I Love You’ by the Partridge Family and ‘We Belong’ by Pat Benatar. ‘Or To Sir With Love’ by Lulu. Or ‘I Want To Dance With Somebody’ by Whitney Houston.
Actually, if you ever want to collaborate on a Whitney Houston fic, I am game. 😉
You two @meredelicious and @daynaan are,fantastic. I am listening to all these songs now.. .
Makes a playlist with every song @meredelicious and @daynaan said… God thanks guys 😂👍🏼
Yes! Awesome suggestions all @meredelicious and @daynaan. (I second every Ed Sheeran suggestion strongly.) I have a Mystrade play list on my AO3 site. I’ll try to recreate it on Spotify. But in the mean time I want to point up:
“Then I met you” by The Proclaimers. I dare you to listen to it and not think of Mycroft singing the first verse and Greg the second.
“Dark Side” by Kelly Clarkson and “When You’ve Got Trouble” by Liz Longley must be listened as a pair. Listen and you’ll know why.
For Excultus fans might get some matching feels with “This Kiss” by Faith Hill, “Don’t Blame Me” by Taylor Swift and “King of Hearts” by Taylor Swift.
More Ed Sheeran suggestions are “Give Me Love”, “One”, “How Would You Feel”.
More Taylor Swift suggestions are “Everything Has Changed” and “You’re In Love”.
But the song that kicked this off for me is DNCE’s “Cake By The Ocean”. (I leave it to you to decide who’s Naomi and who’s Diddy.)
@antheas-blackberry I know you have a play list too. Any suggestions?
And here is the Spotify playlist with Lav’s wonderful additions!!
