Cartographer's Craft - Soundtrack

[sam_storyteller]

Particular thanks to simon for suggesting Aside and inspiring the project.

DISC I

The Cartographer's Theme - The Weakerthans - Aside
Circumnavigate this body / of wonder and uncertainty / Armed with every precious failure / and amateur Cartography

Making The Map - Benny Goodman - Swing Sing Swing
While this was made popular when Lupin used it in the PoA movie, Benny Goodman has long been a favourite of mine. This is a version of Sing Sing Sing remade for the movie "1947".

Marauders At Zenith - Beenie Man - King of the Dance Hall
Im di girls dem sugar dats all / Welcome di king of di dancehall

Twenty Years Ahead - Dan Bern - God Said No
God said time, time belongs to me / Time's a secret weapon, the final advantage

Remus and Tonks - Fastball - Out of my Head
Was I out of my head, was I out of my mind? / How could I have ever been so blind?

Emperors - Sting - Shape of my Heart
He deals the cards to find the answers / The sacred geometry of chance / The hidden law of the probable outcome

Sleeping With Padfoot - Louis Armstrong - A Kiss To Build A Dream On
Oh give me what you alone can give / A kiss to build a dream on

Fourteen Back - Marc Broussard - Save Me
Save me / Give me what I need / You know you can break these chains and set me free

Tutor - Coldplay - The Scientist (accoustic)
Questions of science / Science and progress / Do not speak as loud as my heart

Horcruxes - K's Choice - Virgin State Of Mind
Now there's a key / Where my wonderful mouth used to be

Theme for Ellis Graveworthy - Rod Stewart - Forever Young
And may you never love in vain / And in my heart you will remain / Forever young

Capturing Fenrir - Foo Fighters - Down In the Park
Down in the park / Where the chant is Death Death Death / Till the sun cries morning

Lupin's Pack - Everlast - Who Got the Hooch
The tribal fire's here / and the circle speaks so near / the simple truth so very much clearer

Gaunt Crypt - Tracy Grammar and Dave Carter - Tillman County
Little white houses, eggs on the rocky bed / I am the son of the serpent, I am

The Dementors' Reward - Simon and Garfunkel - Hazy Shade of Winter
Look around / grass is high / fields are ripe / it's the springtime of my life

Harry and Sirius - Merril Bainbridge - Mouth
All the pieces there will fit to make you whole / And I know where they go


DISC II

Serpentshead Welcome - Janis Joplin - Son of a Preacher Man
Takin' time to make time / Tellin' me that he's all mine / Learnin' from each other's knowing

Arcadia the Werewolf - Chumbawamba - Amnesia
Burns are red / Bruises blue / Out with the old / Cheated by the new

Severus in Disguise - Cake - Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps
If you can't make your mind up / We'll never get started

The Sixth Horcrux (Theme for Remus) - Hootie & the Blowfish - Time
Well, tomorrow's just another day / And I don't believe in time

Hermione's Bad Timing - Bon Jovi - Misunderstood
I stumbled like my words / Did the best I could / Damn, Misunderstood

Full Moons - Wolf Parade - Shine a Light
There is an awful sound / This haunted town / And it will not just be quiet

Staunch Weasleys - Grateful Dead - Friend of the Devil
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine / If I get home before daylight / I just might get some sleep tonight

Theme for Regulus Black - Andrew Kerr - Tonight
You can have my soul back tomorrow / but you can't touch me tonight

Glastonbury Goes Up - Screamin Jay Hawkins - Frenzy
When you touch me I warm right up / I'm in a frenzy

Happy Birthday Sirius - Rockapella - Save Tonight
So take this wine and drink with me / Let's delay our misery

Voldemort's Dialogue - Sting - Ghost Story
Afraid to love / Afraid to fail / A mast without a sail

Nagini - Ravel - Bolero
Bolero is popularly considered one of the most erotic songs in classical music.

Tom Riddle Again - Rufus Wainwright - Hallelujah
Remember when I moved in you / The holy dark was moving too / And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

The Author - Marc Broussard - Home
I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes / And I disappeared into the groove

You have Bolero on your soundtrack.

...

There are no words to how much I love you right now.

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

*bows* Bolero and Pachabel's Canon in D are the only classical music I like enough to own on mp3, other than some assorted Aaron Copeland. :D

Interesting note: "Sing Sing Sing" wasn't the song in PoA. It was a John Williams song made for the movie 1941 called "Swing Swing Swing". This song was also used in the X-Files episode "Triangle", which is why my Phile best friend and I squealed in shock and joy when Lupin fired up the magical phonograph.

Or, y'know, that's what my research tells me. And finding a version of "Swing Swing Swing" has so far proven impossible. Woe.

[morningfine]

...I have a song labeled Swing Swing Swing, by Glenn Miller, curiously enough. I don't have the DVD and it's been a while since I saw the movie, so I really am not sure, but my friend swears this is the song. Would you like me to send it to you (for further clarification and with no criminal intent, naturally)?

[biscocho.livejournal.com]

Woot! Now I can add this one to my Stealing Harry Sound Track

*bounces*

*Has a "Sam Collection" now omg yay*

[nicefeet.livejournal.com]

I don't suppose you could point me to a track list for that? *beseeches*

[cleversimon.livejournal.com]

Well aren't I just enormously proud of myself right now. :D

[stvincent.livejournal.com]

OMG awesome idea. You will be recieving an email from me shortly. :) (PS: limewire? Is that what I think it is Sounds like a very interesting site. :D) (PPS: I love Simon and Garfunkel!!!!)

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

Limewire's like kazaa, only more effective :D

[littlesquash.livejournal.com]

Hey - Marc Broussard! I just discovered him about three weeks ago and have been listening to his album in my car! There are a couple of tracks I skip over, but most of his stuff is really good - "Home" gives me chills every time I hear it - and his songs are very singable, too (not that I can hit any of those low notes). I think my Southern roots make me genetically predisposed to like this kind of music - especially when there are banjos involved.

On an unrelated note, have you ever seen the video for "The Scientist?' You can view it on iTunes - the end just gives you chills.

I'm off to go and have a listen to "Aside," if I can find it...

[athene-51.livejournal.com]

If you can't find it, reply and I will YSI it. I'm all about spreading love for The Weakerthans!

Sam, you made my day by including that song on the soundtrack! :D

[butterflysteve.livejournal.com]

Oh my god...someone who actually knows who Merril Bainbridge is! I have had such a hard time persuading my British friends that she actually exists!
Good choice of songs though, and if I didn't have the majority of them I would require a download.
Merril-squeeage!

[eyesaintmoving.livejournal.com]

...I had her tape when I was seven, god, looking back on it I can't believe what I was singing!

[wtfbrain.livejournal.com]

For files less than 100MB, you can use Megaupload, where the downloads are unlimited and don't expire. Some people have problems with MU, though, for some strange reason.

[wtfbrain.livejournal.com]

Also, this is really cool! I'd lost the link to the SH soundtrack, but some helpful soul provided the link in the comments above, so I can finish putting that playlist together...

[kismeteve.livejournal.com]

Beenie Man and Dan Bern? Oh, I love this. It took me months to get "Home" out of my head, and now...dammit. ;)

[booklady.livejournal.com]

They do delight the senses! I loved the Stealing Harry soundtrack, and this one looks to be just as good. Are you doing this for all your fics? (In your copious spare time from writing and real life, obviously.)

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

Nah, I just do it for the big ones. I have one for LC years one and two, but it contains spoilers so I can't post it yet.

[behindblue-eyes.livejournal.com]

Ooooooh. I have a thing for soundtracks (and the tremendously awesome fics that go with them).

Can't wait!

[cassyl.livejournal.com]

What an excellent bunch of music. I'm glad I'm not the only person who compiles soundtracks to their own work. I'm also glad this soundtrack features K's Choice and the Weakerthans, groups who I think are hugely underappreciated. Great choices!

[sluggirl.livejournal.com]

This is so great! I found all of them on Limewire except Tillman County, but I will keep looking.

[angelodimusica.livejournal.com]

Wanted to thank you for sending out the link to download the soundtrack. It was an excellent compilation and great to listen to.

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[lamiael.livejournal.com]

I believe the lyric for 'Hallelujah' is /the holy dove was moving too/, but other than that, great soundtrack! :D

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

I thought it was holy dove, too, but it really clearly ends on a K in that particular cover. It's a subject of much debate :D

[andy-star.livejournal.com]

It's scary how much Aside fits with this story. Almost as scary as how much High and Dry fits with Stealing Harry.

[kannnichtfranz.livejournal.com]

I was looking up "Who Got The Hooch" lyrics (while procrastinating from packing) and found that it seems to be by a group called "Everything" and not by Everlast.

Also, there appears to be a very dorky video. I'm amused by the costumes about halfway through. (They have masks! Sort of.) And the pancakes, if that's what they are, at the beginning. :D Warning: obnoxious ads on both sites and I could only view with IE.

Also, I'd like to know what it is they're actually saying in "King of the Dance Hall" when it sounds like they say "Bist du auch verliebt?" in perfect German. Lyrics archives are not making it clear to me. On the bright side, I finally found the Batman line in there. ;)

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the links! And for the proper attribution. That house party at the end is the reason I chose it to represent Lupin's "pack" in the first place -- I love that scene.

As for the Dance Hall song...I don't think ANYONE knows. :D I found the line you mean, though, and I think it means, essentially, "She knows how to fit with me" ("Miss Know how fi dweet" is the line itself)

[madd-hatter1.livejournal.com]

Excellent soundtrack - I had to wait until I was back home to hear it. One of the disadvantages to being on the road for two months. Thats one of thee curses of being in theatre. But great soundtrack almost as good as Jumperkids soundtrack to Stealing Harry. Can't wait to hear a v. 2 to CC. Have a great Holiday.

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun making it -- and I think I will need to have a Version Two :D

[maeritrae.livejournal.com]

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! More pretty music! *loves*

[quean-of-swords.livejournal.com]

<3 you like burning.

Theme for Ellis Graveworthy - Rod Stewart - Forever Young

*snort* Well that kills the image of that song that I got from the diaper commercial with the cute baby animals with their mammas.

I love that you have the Simon and Garfunkle version of Hazy Shade of Winter. I went on an 80s girl music download binge a few months ago (Lorelai music), got the S&G version by accident, and decided I liked the more folky version over the sterile electric 80s sound.

I haven't heard it yet, but the a capella Save Tonight might be Penn 6, Wiffenpoofs, one of those college groups.

thanks much for uploading this! I'l dl when I'm back on my desktop computer.

Uhm, any chance you could upload the SH st? *kisses*

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

Well, S&G originated the song, so I suppose perhaps they understand it better. I've heard the 80s version of well, and while I like it, it seems a bit too...badass. :D

I was thinking possibly Save Tonight was by Off The Beat, but I can't be sure....

Nnnnnghh. *paroxyms of faoijeoiwjrosi* THANK YOU.
*clicky-clicky*

[busaikko]

Oh, lovely lovely lovely! Am downloading all of it now... seems it will take another 5 hours or so.... Your upload program keeps trying to sell me foreign women in Japan. And used cars. But I am just thrilled to be getting this this morning!

[busaikko]

(( contented sigh ))
Have just finished listening and am very impressed. I know so little about modern American music (being a baba now; and living out of the country) but I really enjoy your selection.

Except now I'm gnawing my fingernails again over the ending to CC.

Arigato!

Love the soundtrack, thanks for uploading! However, 'Son of a Preacher Man' is actually by Dusty Springfield. I can easily see how she sounds like Janis Joplin, though :)

[sam-storyteller.livejournal.com]

Is it really? Huh. Never knew....
