Title: Hearing Your Thoughts.
Fandom: Star Trek: The Next Generation
Content notes: Fanmix - two graphics, seven songs and selected lyrics.
Fanmixer notes: Streaming here on Grooveshark. Rest of the notes beneath the cut. 
Summary: A Jean-Luc Picard/Beverly Crusher fanmix, inspired by the episode "Attached".



I took the "post a work in a medium or fandom new to you", and did a double - new medium and new fandom! I've never done a fanmix before, so all constructive criticism will be most gratefully received :)
This episode was always a favourite of mine, so I really enjoyed finding songs to fit it. The mix title was taken from two different lines in the episode, both said by Picard at different points:
"Not that I'm tired of hearing your thoughts." and 
"I was beginning to get used to hearing your thoughts and I find that I miss it."

On to the fanmix!






Selected Lyrics:

1. Things I’ll Never Say – Avril Lavigne

It don’t do me any good
It’s just a waste of time
What use is it to you
What’s on my mind
(...)What’s wrong with my tongue
These words keep slipping away

2. Decode – Paramore

How can I decide what's right? 
When you're clouding up my mind 
(...)How did we get here? 
Well I used to know you so well
(...)(My thoughts you can't decode)

3. When You Say Nothing At All – Ronan Keating

Without saying a word,
You can light up the dark
(...)You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all

4. Don't Speak – No Doubt

Don't speak 
I know just what you're saying 
So please stop explaining 
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts 
Don't speak 
I know what you're thinking 
I don't need your reasons 
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts 

5. Ojos de Cielo – El Sueño de Morfeo

Apenas dices nada 
Y nada es suficiente
(…)Sigo tus pisadas 
Aunque a veces me pierdo 
Me pierdo en mil preguntas 
Y siempre acabo huyendo 
Porqué salir corriendo 
Si te llevo aquí adentro 
Hoy te echo de menos 
Pero es que tengo miedo. 

You hardly say anything 
And nothing is enough
(...)I follow your footsteps
Though sometimes I get lost
Lost in a thousand questions
I end up running away
Why do I run away
If I carry you inside me
Today I miss you
The thing is, I’m afraid.


6. So Close – Jon Mclaughlin

And now you're beside me
And look how far we've come
So far, we are, so close 

7. Nos Rendez-Vous – Nathalie St Pier

J'étais en retard, ou toi en avance sur nos sentiments
Est-ce qu'il est trop tard pour une autre danse, une autre romance ?
Je voudrais ce soir que ça recommence mais pour plus longtemps
Plus longtemps... Mais j'ai jamais su ce qu'il fallait faire vraiment

Was I too late or were you too early at our feelings
Is it too late for another dance, another romance?
I would like it to start over tonight, but for longer
Longer...But I never knew what I really had to do

I love the pictures you chose for the covers, and the font is perfect. It goes well with the overall sound of the mix, too. Great job!

Thank you! The font took me ages to figure out install in Ubuntu, but it was worth it :) I'm really happy you liked it :D
