Good Omens Song of the Day

we know what's to blame!

I can't see much of a future

Unless we find out what's to blame, what a shame

And we won't be together much longer

Unless we realize that we are the same

this bastard

Lyrics

You spurn my natural emotions

You make me feel like dirt and I'm hurt

And if I start a commotion

I run the risk of losing you and that's worse

Ever fallen in love with someone

Ever fallen in love, in love with someone

You shouldn't have fallen in love with

I can't see much of a future

Unless we find out what's to blame, what a shame

And we won't be together much longer

Unless we realize that we are the same

Ever fallen in love with someone

Ever fallen in love, in love with someone

You shouldn't have fallen in love with

You disturb my natural emotions

You make me feel like dirt and I'm hurt

And if I start a commotion

I'll only end up losing you and that's worse

Ever fallen in love with someone

Ever fallen in love, in love with someone

You shouldn't have fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love with someone

Ever fallen in love, in love with someone

You shouldn't have fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love with someone

Ever fallen in love, in love with someone

You shouldn't have fallen in love with

Fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love with someone

You shouldn't have fallen in love with

Neil's picks for Aziraphale & Crowley's Angelic Playlist were Cry Me a River (Julie London), The Book of Love (Peter Gabriel), and The Show Must Go On (Queen).

Three songs. Two about the aftermath of a break up, and one about coming together in love. So very clearly, we can infer a Crowley POV song, an Aziraphale POV song, and a song for the two of them and their happily ever after. (Song lyrics for all three after the cut for reference.)

The Book of Love is a perfect wedding song. It's a song to play under two people declaring their desire to spend eternity together. With lines about dancing and reading and it's perfect. It's originally a Magnetic Fields song that was released in 1999. Peter Gabriel recorded a cover in 2004 for the movie Shall We Dance about which I know nothing but the Wikipedia summary. But since we know how movies are important here... It's a standard rom-com with a bored Richard Gere secretly taking up ballroom dancing after following a pretty lady from the train (J-Lo). His wife (Susan Sarandon) thinks he's cheating, turns out nope, just dancing, drama ensues, he gives up dancing but eventually his wife becomes supportive and he realizes he loves his wife. And dancing. And they live happily ever after, with both of them getting what they want. Maybe we can draw some parallels here? But I think the song speaks for itself better than its connection with what sounds like a standard early 2000s romcom.

The individual songs are where it gets interesting.

Cry Me a River was first released by Julie London in 1951, but became popular after she sang it in the 1956 film The Girl Can't Help It starring Jayne Mansfield as an aspiring rock 'n roll singer. Again, relying on Wikipedia here, but there is an interesting bit about a blossoming forbidden relationship, wiretapped phones, and someone editing the recordings to keep the love affair secret. But again, it's probably a stretch to look too deeply into the movie.

The song has a very classic jazz feel. It's from a decade and a half later, but if you were, say, an angel who enjoyed Moonlight Serenade or A Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square, it has a similar feel. You definitely wouldn't say it's bebop. The lyrics are about someone who was in love and had their heartbroken. Their former love (who never shed a tear over the break up) has returned and wants to make up. The singer essentially says "you love me? Prove it. Cry me a river like I cried when you left." Which, fair, but in our context, ouch.

The Show Must Go On is a Queen song, and we know how much Queen we hear in association with Crowley in particular. But this just isn't any Queen song. It was written by Brian May about Freddie Mercury's struggles as he neared the end of his life, and it was recorded in 1990. (Coincidentally or not, the year Good Omens was published, a book co-created by friends, one of whom would die too soon, and the other of whom would reflect on his friend's end of life struggles as the story was told more fully. Yes, I'm crying about this.)

In the song, the singer is fighting to reach a place of freedom, away from empty spaces and heartbreak. They are fighting with pure will, and even though their heart is breaking they smile and carry on because the show must go on.

What I really appreciate here with the POV songs, is that they are cross-coded. Queen is Crowley-coded, but the song about someone fighting through heartbreak to achieve something vital, while forcing a smile for the audience? That's absolutely Aziraphale in Heaven. And the 40s/50s jazz ballad is absolutely Aziraphale's style, but the jilted lover who may be willing to give their love a second chance but needs to see proof that the lover cares as much as they do is Crowley all the way.

It's almost like... Well it's almost like even in their separation, they are each carrying a piece of the other. The book of love has music in it, indeed.

The Book of Love

The book of love is long and boring No one can lift the damn thing It's full of charts and facts, and figures And instructions for dancing But I I love it when you read to me. And you You can read me anything.

The book of love has music in it In fact that's where music comes from Some of it's just transcendental Some of it's just really dumb But I I love it when you sing to me And you You can sing me anything

The book of love is long and boring And written very long ago It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes And things we're all too young to know But I I love it when you give me things And you You ought to give me wedding rings

Cry Me a River

Now you say you're lonely You cry the whole night thorough Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry For bein' so untrue Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river I cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head While you never shed a tear Remember, I remember all that you said Told me love was too plebeian Told me you were through with me and

Now you say you love me Well, just to prove you do Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river I cried a river over you

The Show Must Go On

Empty spaces, what are we living for? Abandoned places, I guess we know the score, on and on Does anybody know what we are looking for?

Another hero, another mindless crime Behind the curtain, in the pantomime Hold the line Does anybody want to take it anymore?

The show must go on The show must go on, yeah Inside my heart is breaking My makeup may be flaking But my smile, still, stays on

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance Another heartache, another failed romance, on and on Does anybody know what we are living for? I guess I'm learning I must be warmer now I'll soon be turning, round the corner now Outside the dawn is breaking But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free

The show must go on The show must go on Inside my heart is breaking My makeup may be flaking But my smile, still, stays on

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies Fairy tales of yesterday, grow but never die I can fly, my friends

The show must go on The show must go on I'll face it with a grin I'm never giving in On with the show I'll top the bill I'll overkill I have to find the will to carry on On with the show Show Show must go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on

These are my two Good Omens playlists (other than the soundtrack itself).

One for the Season 2 / Hiatus / Season 3 time named "Ineffable Idiots" (mostly sad and yearning and angsty), and the other for their post season 3 South Downs Cottage Happy Ending (spicy headcanon edition).

Does anyone have any more song suggestions for either? 😜

🎵 Ineffable Song of the Day 🎵

I don't know where to find you I don't know how to reach you I hear your voice in the wind I feel you under my skin Within my heart and my soulI wait for you

When the time is right I know You'll be in my arms

If you know where to find me If you know how to reach me Before this light fades away Before I run out of faith Be the only man to say That you'll hear my heart That you'll give your life Forever you'll stay Don't let this light fade away

found another ineffable divorce song.

Good Omens mascot here, the brainrot is real. Still haven't watched season 2, so I'm making guesses about the vibes and feelings as usual. This one is from the Fault In Our Stars soundtrack, Not About Angels by Birdy. [also, if you can, reblog instead of only liking :") it helps spread the sobbing throughout this masochistic fandom]

We know full well there's just time So is it wrong to dance this line? If your heart was full of love Could you give it up?

[Aziraphale knowing that whatever time he has with Crowley was borrowed, his heart breaking even as he takes Crowley's hand and pulls him into a dance. His heart that's filled with millennia of love for someone whom he has to give up to keep safe, because nothing can be allowed to harm Crowley.]

'Cause what about, what about angels? They will come, they will go, make us special, oh Don't give me up Don't give me up

[Crowley begging Aziraphale not to give him up, because whatever the angels have promised Aziraphale has to be a lie. Who cares about them or Heaven or Hell? Crowley wants Aziraphale to make them special, 'we're on our side', they've always been together, different.]

How unfair, it's just our luck Found something real that's out of touch But if you'd searched the whole wide world Would you dare to let it go?

[Both of them torn between the selfish desire to keep the other as close as possible, and the need to stay away to keep the other safe. Because they have travelled the world and travelled time, since before time, lived and loved each other through dynasties. They know that what they've found is real, but how can they ever reach it? How can they dare to try, but also, how can they dare to let it go?]

It's not about, not about angels, angels

It's not about Heaven or Hell or humans. It's not about angels. It's about them, Crowley and Aziraphale, it always has been. It always will be.

Day 8 of Ineffable Husbands Playlist

Romeo and Juliet-The Killers

The play Romeo and Juliet is about two star-crossed lovers kept apart by a feud, not unlike our favorite hereditary enemies. This song also makes several references to movie romance, like how Crowley gets his ideas of love from movies, and Aziraphale likewise from books. The line that really gets me is 'when we made love you used to cry' because it makes me think of how they were both crying after the kiss.

Lyrics:

A love struck Romeo, sings the streets of serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made He find a streetlight, steps out of the shade Says something like, "you and me, babe, how about it?"

Juliet says, "hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack" He's underneath the window, she's singing Hey, la, my boyfriend's back" You shouldn't come around here, singing up at people like that Anyway what you going to do about it?

Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start And I bet and you exploded in my heart And I forget, I forget the movie song When you going to realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same And I dream your dream for you and now your dream is real How can you look at me, as if I was just another one of your deals?

Well, you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin Now you just say, "oh, Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him"

Juliet, when we made love you use to cry I said "I love you like the stars above, I love you till I die" And there's a place for us, you know that movie song When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet

I can't do the talk like the talk on the TV And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you I can't do anything except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be All I do is keep the beat, the bad company And all I do is kiss you, through the bars of orion Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time

Juliet, when we made love you use to cry I said "I love you like the stars above, I love you till I die" And there's a place for us, you know that movie song When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet

A love struck Romeo, sings the streets of serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made He find a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade Says something like, "you and me, babe, how about it?"

Good Omens Song of the Day

I mean, I kinda had to didn't I?

"If love is what you need, a soldier I will be I'm an angel with a shotgun Fighting til' the wars won I don't care if heaven won't take me back I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe Don't you know you're everything I have?"

I just remembered that "Come Away With Me" by Norah Jones exists and it's so painfully Ineffable Husbands coded.

Come away with me in the night

Come away with me

And I will write you a song

Come away with me on a bus

Come away where they can't tempt us with their lies

And I want to walk with you

On a cloudy day

In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high

So won't you try to come

Come away with me and we'll kiss

On a mountaintop

Come away with me

And I'll never stop loving you

And I want to wake up with the rain

Falling on a tin roof

While I'm safe there in your arms

So all I ask is for you

To come away with me in the night

Come away with me

Oh, the sheer amount of longing and yearning in the new playlist is beyond.

Yearning is my absolute favorite emotion. It's hope and heartbreak at the same time, and it's absolutely delicious.

🎵 Ineffable Song of the Day🎵

My first intention was to share a song about stars as a reflection to Crowley's love for the Universe 🌠

But it turn out that is famous song (which talk a bit about astronomy) is so powerful and emotional that I couldn't not share it on this blog. I know most people already know it, but it's a reminder that this song is divine and that Azi et Crow could possibly dance on it one day (I wish) 🕺

Listenning to this song is like stopping time for a moment...

StarlightI will be chasing a starlight Until the end of my life I don't know if it's worth it anymore

⚠️ ought to be listen with the song on max level ⚠️

Our hopes and expectations Black holes and revelations Our hopes and expectations Black holes and revelations Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold You in my arms Far away This ship is taking me far away Far away from the memories Of the people who care if I live or die I'll never let you go If you promise not to fade away Never fade away
