This happened to pop up the other day on my shuffle, and I was like, hurray!!! An Ian song!!! I'm not a big fan of including songs THAT obvious/literal, but in this case (since we know what happened to Ian's baby but not to Emily) I think it really works.Tracey R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06775331935448970772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-20782051083908447992010-02-22T13:05:27.585-05:002010-02-22T13:05:27.585-05:00Sirena: totally agree for the need of a kickass wa...Sirena: totally agree for the need of a kickass war drums song for the rescue. I was trying to come up with something contemporary that isn't necessarily taken from the Braveheart or Last of the Mohicans soundtrack....it's very 80s and contemporary pop, but what do you think of "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins? It certainly does have some kickass drumming, and the lyrics are very "Jamie is SOOO gonna kill you":<br /><br /><i>Well, if you told me you were drowning <br />I would not lend a hand <br />I've seen your face before my friend <br />But I don't know if you know who I am <br />Well, I was there and I saw what you did <br />I saw it with my own two eyes <br />So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been <br />It's all been a pack of lies...</i><br /><br />I kinda likee....Tracey R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06775331935448970772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-31302021690947765512010-02-22T08:10:28.217-05:002010-02-22T08:10:28.217-05:00Oh LOVE True Companion!

Wish there were some kickass war drum songs for the scenes where Claire hears the drums in the distance. Thanks to this site, I've grown to really love Playlist.com and have been making my own, but sometimes it's really frustrating when they don't have a certain song! Sinead's Only You I understand since it's new and under the radar, but "Don't Give up"? Grr. I'll keep checking back in to the playlist you're making though :-) love the suggestions :-)Sirenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07622232908141767076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-33003303237742750432010-02-21T21:48:55.452-05:002010-02-21T21:48:55.452-05:00Also have to give major props to a suggestion on K...Also have to give major props to a suggestion on Karen Henry's blog: True Companion" by Marc Cohn.

I'm not ...Don't Give Up is a great song. <br /><br />I'm not sure about the acoustic for Everything's Magic. Why not? For me, it's a song that just whips all the adventures around. They're up, down; it's magic and I like that there is thunder,it's a gasp at every turn. It's crazy and wild and totally unexpected.<br />I feel that as a reader, I'm being pulled into the stones to experience the best and the fastest ride. <br />My playlist actually starts slow with the Royal Scot Dragoons playing the theme to the Last of the Mohicans and then it goes right into Everything's Magic. Then I followed it with So Contagious by Acceptance. I've created my list on iTunes. <br />My daughter introduced me to So Contagious and I loved it as soon as I heard it. It reminds me of Jamie falling in love at first sight and the embarrassment when Claire breaks down and he draws her to him...and...well, you know the rest. It's his pov, and I love his pov. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIii_QRoPo4Nigheandubhnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-73026311815435013962010-02-19T22:35:01.182-05:002010-02-19T22:35:01.182-05:00PS - Nigheandubh - it's not on Playlist.com. ...PS - Nigheandubh - it's not on Playlist.com.

Then I heard his voice and my ears perked up a little... and then I looked up the lyrics and wow - you are NOT KIDDING!!! It's like it's from both of their perspectives! It's like the first part is Claire... and the second is Jamie. Love it. I dig this band, too. I am a child of the 80s and they've got that 80s sound. Thanks for the tip - I'm going to listen to some more of their stuff. <br /><br />PS - what would you think of this song being done acoustically?Purgatory Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04206226666250028550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-942479240330862322010-02-19T18:40:03.808-05:002010-02-19T18:40:03.808-05:00I love the Sinead O'Connor selection.

Thanks for suggesting and posting it. <br /><br />I also bought Run by Snow Patrol and added to my play list. <br /><br />I love play lists. I have a few songs for OL. Here is a song that reminds me of the whole series. When I heard it I just imagined Claire falling through, meeting Jamie, Jamie, wanting to be unknown, reaching for her and promising adventures.<br /><br />Everything's Magic by Angels &Airwaves Even the video reminds me of going through the stones. Here's the link:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE-8kqL-pNE<br /><br />This is the same song without the background screams/noise. <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahcvFMUA49g&feature=related <br /><br />Let me know what you think.<br /><br />I hope you like it.

Great, great choices. <br />I'm sure you have a billion ideas already, but the song played at the end of the film The Young Victoria - Only You, by Sinead O'Connor ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Q629eoZiW4 ) - instantly brought Outlander to mind. Maybe it was a little bit the lyrics, and a little bit the lilt to her voice. Can't wait to see the rest of the songs on your playlist!
