To celebrate Quicksilver’s return we made playlists :)Listen to the Quicksilver playlist on Spotify@theseavoices will be posting a drawing soundtrack next. Find Will’s playlist here, Hannibal’s here, and Bev’s here.Track list and sleevenotes under the read more link - you can also find this on AO3 along with the rest of Quicksilver.Manip is by @theseavoices for Quicksilver - the original is hereThis one is a mix of songs for the series as a whole, a slightly easier task as several of the stories have titles taken from songs. I’m not entirely sure why I started to do that - I don’t usually like quotes and things as titles but it just seemed to make sense at the time. Generally I prefer songs with female vocalists for Quicksilver and there’s a particular sound which makes a song ‘Quicksilver’ for me, but I’ve never been able to articulate what it is. Here’s a selection anyway :)*Sour Times ~ PortisheadBrilliant, brilliant song. This one opens the playlist as it contains the title of the new fic… Deadly Valentine ~ Charlotte Gainsbourg… but I very nearly opened with this one as, well, thematically this is the essence of the new fic :) :) :)(Love is Like A) Heat Wave ~ Martha & the VandellasI had this one in mind for a possible title for ages - I thought it was probably destined for a summer-set sequel to I’ll Be Your Mirror but that was before I realised I needed to finish the series off with a great big standalone fic. So I used it as the title for an a/b/o Quicksilver AU instead (it was just asking for it, really).I’m In Your Hands ~ Mary LoveGorgeous, gorgeous soul record (which is absolutely *great* for lip synching to) and provided me with a great title as well :)Ruler of My Heart ~ Irma ThomasThe Soul Queen of New Orleans belongs in a Quicksilver playlist. This was another possible title which never quite made it - it was reinterpreted by Otis Redding and released as Pain in My Heart.Les Fleurs ~ Minnie RipertonThis was the track which started the song title theme - tbh, it’s the quintessential Quicksilver sound. I always love the line Inside every man lives the seed of a flower / If he looks within he finds beauty and power. Beauty and power - that’s Will :)I’ll Be Your Mirror ~ The Velvet Underground & NicoNico is a wonderful vocalist for Quicksilver, sounding simultaneously grave and naive, innocent and experienced - these are the themes I’ve been playing with as I’ve developed the series and some of the key ideas underpinning the new fic. I’ll be your mirror / Reflect what you are, in case you don’t know are lines which could be said by either Will or Hannibal to the other.Laisse tombe les filles ~ France GallA yé-yé French pop classic, written by Serge Gainsbourg (which is pleasing as his daughter has also found her way into this playlist). Yé-yé girl singers were sexy in a deliberately contrived naive way so we’re back to innocence and experience again - see pretty much every drawing TheSeaVoices has ever made of Will, though arguably there’s several layers of subtle meaning piled on top of those drawings simply because of who Will is and who Hannibal is. Lay In The Sun ~ Ezra FurmanFurman’s second appearance in the playlist series - this is an anthem about running away and not looking back. Make of that what you will :)A Case of You ~ Joni MitchellI very, very, very nearly called the new fic this but it became clear as I got towards the end it didn’t fit after all. One of Will’s inheritance tracks and it’s been on my list for a long while - Joni is a favourite of his mother.You’re in my blood like holy wineYou taste so bitter, and so sweet ohI could drink a case of youAnd I would still by on my feet -- source link
