With Shadow and Bone right around the corner we thought it would be a good idea to put a some playlists together about some of our favorite characters/ships. After doing Malina, and The Darkling, it’s time for my favorite characters/ship in the Shadow and Bone world: Kaz Brekker and Inej Ghafa. And what if I’ve been playing these on a loop for weeks? That’s a compliment! These two gave me THESE MANY FEELS.
I’m not saying you should come cry with me, but I’m also not saying you won’t after you watch them.
“A Pearl” by Mitski
Sorry I don’t want your touch
It’s not that I don’t want you
Sorry I can’t take your touch
There’s a hole that you fill
You fill, you fill
But it’s just that I fell in love with a war
And nobody told me it ended
“this is me trying” by Taylor Swift
They told me all of my cages were mental
So I got wasted like all my potential
And my words shoot to kill when I’m mad
I have a lot of regrets about that
I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere
Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here
Pourin’ out my heart to a stranger
But I didn’t pour the whiskey
I just wanted you to know
That this is me trying
I just wanted you to know
That this is me tryingAt least I’m trying
“Without You” by Harry Nilsson
No I can’t forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it’s only fair that I should let you know
What you should know
I can’t live
If living is without you
I can’t live
I can’t give anymore
I can’t live
If living is without you
I can’t give
I can’t give anymore
“1001” by One Hope
Yоu рісkеd uр mу рооr hеаrt
Аnd tаught mе hоw tо mеnd ѕсаrѕ
Іf І hаd јuѕt оnе wіѕh
І’d wіѕh tо саtсh thе ѕtаrѕ fоr уоu
Оh thеrе’ѕ nоthіng І wоn’t
Dо fоr уоu
“Iris” by Goo Goo Dolls
And I’d give up forever to touch you
‘Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don’t want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later, it’s over
I just don’t wanna miss you tonight
“Conversations in the Dark” by John Legend
I will never try to change you, change you
I will always want the same you, same you
Swear on everything I pray to
That I won’t break your heart
I’ll be there when you get lonely, lonely
Keep the secrets that you told me, told me
And your love is all you owe me
And I won’t break your heart
“Bits and Pieces” by JP Cooper
Somehow, you found me
And now you’re patching up the cracks and holes
Filling in the gaps with gold
You said you’re never givin’ up on me
I see your fingerprints around my soul
Filling in the gaps with gold
You said you’re never givin’ up on me
Bonus:
When I discussed this playlist on twitter, I got three suggestions I really loved. The first song was suggested to me by Hannah, and it was a song I was very familiar with. Doesn’t mean Hannah doesn’t deserve a shout out for bringing it to my attention.
“Take on the World” by You Me At Six
And just say the word, we’ll take on the world
Just say you’re hurt, we’ll face the worst
Nobody knows you the way that I know you
Look in my eyes, I will never desert you.
And just say the word, we’ll take on the world, we’ll take on the world
And nobody knows you the way that I know you
And nobody knows you the way that I know you
We’ll fight, we’ll crawl into the night
Our world. We’ll go with you by my side
The calm, the storm, we’ll face it all
Then Jul brought up this next song, and talk about an attack. This fandom doesn’t pull any punches.
“Neptune” by Sleeping At Last
I wanna tell you but I don’t know how
I’m only honest when it rains
An open book, with a torn out page
And my inks run outI wanna love you but I don’t know how
I don’t know how
No I don’t know how
I don’t know how
Finally, the lovely Rea suggested a song I’d never heard before, but that absolutely fit Kanej. I wanted to share it with all of you, but she gets all the credit, not me. All I did was take her advice, and drown in feels.
“Never Forgot” by Kendra Dantes
I am made of nightmares
I didn’t care
Before you took her right there and I
Cracked
…
You are made of kind things
Defying
The gravity so you will never
Fall
