[fst] FFVII - "Soft Mistakes"

[konstantya]

Title:  Soft Mistakes
Fandom:  Final Fantasy VII (OGC)
Characters:  Lucrecia
Rating:  PG (I guess?  Maybe PG-13?  There's no swearing or anything, but things aren't exactly sunshine and honey.)
Notes:  7 tracks, one in .wma, one in .m4a, and the rest in .mp3.  Total run time: 28:00.

For some reason, I’ve always had a soft spot for Lucrecia (and Hojo--maybe just to spite the haters).  She’s just so flawed and tragic to me.  Not evil, just misguided.  In love with her work a little too much.  She made mistakes.  She's human.

And I guess I've always wanted to do a fanmix, so here we go.  My Lucrecia EP, if you will.  (I've got a Vincent LP in the works.)

1. The Flashbulb - "Summertime (Dark)"
Instrumental intro.  Soft, gentle, and maybe even a little haunting.

2. Halou - "Professional"
Full of promise, but perhaps a bit too scientific for her own good.

3. Goldfrapp - "Human"
Unfortunately, there’s no rule that says the person you love has to be good for you.  (Also served as inspiration for my Vincent/Lucrecia/Hojo fic by the same title.  Again, if you happen to care.)

4. Frou Frou - "Psychobabble"
Mr. Valentine...your "love" is starting to scare me.  And stay out of my personal business, please thank you.

5. Björk - "Lilith"
Spooky, trippy, Jenova-flavored pregnancies.  Maybe this was a bad idea after all.

6. Vienna Teng - "My Medea"
Regret gnaws madly and incessantly.

7. Tori Amos - "Spark"
"Vincent...won’t you please tell me?  If Sephiroth is still alive?..."

Link to everything zipped all pretty.

(Best part in my opinion, is that all of them are sung by females.)

Oh yay! I made a ginormous Lu FST ages ago (and "Psychobabble" is a song that I associate with a lot of the old school science team) but this looks AWESOME).

<3!

Ooh, thankee. Hopefully it doesn't disappoint. And hey, you wouldn't happen to be able to dredge up that FST you made, would you? Not the files--I'm just interested in the tracklist. 'Twould likewise be awesome. :D Poor Lu gets so little love.

I happen to keep tracklistings of my major FSTs I make around. XD Lu's is here (http://viniel.wordpress.com/music/psychobabble-soundtrack/), and my main page is here (http://viniel.wordpress.com/music/).

Aw, pshht--if I had known it was that easy, I wouldn't have bothered to ask. Now I feel a little silly, especially since I drop by your wordpress every now and then and you'd think I would have seen that by now. Ah, well, what are you gonna do? XD Thank you for going through the (admittedly small) trouble for me, though. And I actually have most of what you put on Lu's FST! I'll have to track down the few I'm missing and queue it up, hehehe.
