year three - playlist explanation
a view between villages by noah khan
"the death of my dog, the stretch of my skin
it's all washing over me, i'm angry again
the things that i lost here, the people i knew"
remus returns to hogwarts. chapter 22.
a window to the past by john williams
the best song from the movie soundtrack to set the scene
the blackest day by lana del rey
"ever since my baby went away
it's been the blackest day"
i bet on losing dogs by mitski
"i always want you when i'm finally fine
how you'd be over me looking in my eyes when i come
someone to watch me die"
my tears ricochet by taylor swift
"and if i'm dead to you, why are you at the wake?
cursing my name, wishing i stayed...
... and i can go anywhere i want
anywhere i want, just not home"
first time by hozier
"these days i think i owe my life
to flowers that were left here by my mother
ain't that like them? gifting life to you again...
... whatever keeps you around, it keeps you around...
... some part of me must have died
the final time you called me baby"
this song has always felt like remus to me, especially as he laments the years he's spent without sirius or any of his other friends. chapter 28 especially.
back to black by amy winehouse
"we only said goodbye with words
i died a hundred times
you go back to her
and i go back to black"
sirius returns
