Music for Zaylor video....

[armanya]

Mmmm, I have a buttload of clips I didn't use in my last video(s) that I want to make a video from. But I'm having some trouble finding a song that really inspires me to do so...

Soooo, just thought I'd ask if someone here who doesn't make videos themselves have a song they've always thought would be great for a Zaylor video? If so let me know and if it inspires me I might make it for you. :)

Well, I actually put together a whole list of songs that remind me of Zaylor (or at least, Zaylor as I imagine them in my short stories) and posted it to my fic journal a few months ago (http://heartturnsblue.livejournal.com/13654.html).
A few others on my "Zaylor" and "slash" playlists...

Bad Romance -- Lady Gaga (or 30STM cover of it)
Kiss With A Fist -- Florence + The Machine
Undisclosed Desires -- Muse
Button For Punishment -- Everybody Else
Unintended -- Muse
Delicate -- Damien Rice
Lovers in a Dangerous Time -- Barenaked Ladies

I'm sure there are more, but those are some of my favorites for Zaylor.

Oh nice thank you! I posted my own list a while back but some of them have already been used by others and the rest... I didn't find fitted the mood I was going for with this. I'll have a look through yours and see if it helps any! :)

Delicate is one of my favourites for Zaylor too. <3333 It seems so perfect for them. That, and accidental babies (at least for pre Tay marriage era).

And I love Button For Punishment so much but I've actually never thought about it in a Zaylory way. But wow. Could work too!

Well a lot of the ones on that playlist are very sexual, but that's what I was going for to fit with my series of oneshots that sort of tell a story (or they will, once there's more than four of them).

And yes, Delicate! Basically, Damien Rice has a good song for any fic, I think. I have one of his songs on almost every fic playlist I have.

Actually Button for Punishment is a little bit more Zarricky, but it works for Zaylor too. It makes a nice combo with Use Me Up, though, for the Zarrick-ness.

Omg I had that exact thought about Use Me Up and Button for Punishment! I keep thinking it's funny how Carrick and Zac wrote songs on more or less the same theme - Use Me Up is more cryptic than Button For Punishment but to me they are about the same thing, just written completely differently.

Damien Rice is amazing writing music. I even wrote a fic based on a song but I think he is in my writing playlist constantly. Him and Joshua Radin. Such nice, relaxing music too, apart from having gorgeous lyrics.

I can't believe I didn't realize the Use Me Up/Button For Punishment connection sooner, since Button was all I listened to while I was writing that Zarrick oneshot I did. Which ended up being titled after a different EBE song, lol (Best Friend, which is a very Zarrick song to me too).

I usually like more relaxing music to write to, so Damien Rice is just perfect for that. Volcano and Rootless Tree were on the playlist for the het story I just finished. So beautiful.
