INTRODUCTION

We Weren’t Born To Follow – Bon Jovi
This one goes out to the man who mines for miracles
This one goes out to the ones in need
This one goes out to the sinner and the cynical
This ain’t about no apology
This road was paved by the hopeless and the hungry
This road was paved by the winds of change
Walking beside the guilty and the innocent
How will you raise your hand when they call your name?

enjolras to combeferre: beautiful dawn – the wailin’ jennys
teach me how to see when i close my eyes / teach me to forgive and to apologize / show me how to love in the darkest dark

enjolras to courfeyrac:
i never walk alonehuey lewis and the news
it ain’t what you got it’s who you know / we take that with us wherever we go / we stick together and we have our fun / you know we’re taking our days one by one

enjolras to feuilly:
working man imagine dragons
i think that this life is darker than the view / so help me help me help me /be a little more like you

enjolras to jehan:
singpatrick wolf
just sing, from the bottom of your heart / sing, blossom every broken part […] if your voice is vanishing / if your life is shortening / you must sing, sing

enjolras to bahorel:
the fighterthe fray
the lover held her love / she begged him not to go […] but somehow they both know / he’s not coming home, coming home

enjolras to joly:
seagull – bad company
here is a man asking the question / is this really the end of the world / seagull, you must have known for a long time / the shape of things to come

enjolras to bossuet:
forever young – rod stewart
may good fortune be with you / may your guiding light be strong / build a stairway to heaven / with a prince or a vagabond

enjolras to grantaire:
after the storm – mumford and sons
and i took you by the hand / and we stood tall / and remembered our own land / what we lived for / and there will come a time you’ll see with no more tears / and love will not break your heart but dismiss your fears

amyfanmix

1. Amy’s Theme – Murray Gold
[instrumental]

2. Fireflies – Faith Hill
Before I grew up I saw you on a cloud
I could bless myself in your name and pat you on your wings
Before I grew up I heard you whisper so loud
“Life is hard, and so is love, child, believe in all these things”

3. My Imaginary Friend – Reel Big Fish
Maybe there is something wrong with me
I don’t see what they see
Used to fold my hands and close my eyes
And think that you were with me
Now there’s something wrong
It doesn’t seem to make much sense
I just feel so stupid now, how could I believe it?


My imaginary friend didn’t come through in the end
So now I have to find a real one
