Love Theme

[gingergoldfish.livejournal.com]

All great couples have one, now I think it's only right that our boys get one!!
I want peeps to think of a piece of music that will best suit of young love (or old depending on how pedantic one is!)
I'm thinking the classics, Jeeves would probably blow his brains out if it's wasn't some form of this and I don't want ot comfort the greiving Bertie.

In other news, Ideas for first time fic coming along nicely.....
One hint: "Marriage in another time, place and century..."

I do hope you've considered Any Time Is Slash Time - after all, I wrote it (http://www.livejournal.com/community/indeedsir/56246.html) and lucylou recorded it (http://www.livejournal.com/community/indeedsir/56443.html). ^___^

Oh dear, dear me.

Hee! That would be perfect, but it would be so anachronistic and fourth-wall-breaking. :)

[peak-in-darien.livejournal.com]

Not to mention slightly odd. I can just see Bertie walking down the street belting out "ANY TIME IS SLASH TIME"...

Hehe, I like the lyrics, haven't heared it yet as comp is stupid.

I hope my hint doesn't scare people, Bertie and Jeeves are not going to appear in 2005 and demand that gay marriage be made legal, I'm not that predictable!!

In the old standards category, there's definitely "Someone to Watch Over Me," and, written by Plum himself, "Just My Bill."

I must also, however recommend my favorite Squirrel Nut Zippers song, "Meant to Be," which I have been convinced for some time now is actually J/W slash. Work with me, here:

All the time
I'm finding ways to make things fall in line
I know how tricky things can be
But I really do believe that
You are mine
And all the stars are there before us
Listen here
Some things are meant to be.

Try to take it slow, try to lose control
But I'll tell you what the trick is
What you get is what you have to give away...

The fact that it's crooned (very Billie Holiday-ishly) by a girl's voice only makes it seem more like slash fic. And then the end:

But wouldn't you agree that
Those who know
Will whisper when they see us walking,
"There's a love
That's always meant to be."

I know I agree. *lovesick sigh*

Hehe Billie Holiday rocks and perhaps more suited to the 1930's type era they are in.

It's not classic but I couldn't help mentioning it... "I think I love you" Seems to me like a really slashy song in general. But. That's just me. XD I always think of Bertie and Jeeves whenever I listen to it, though. I mean.. "This morning, I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself
And never talk about it
And didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into my room."

"Believe me
You really don't have to worry
I only want to make you happy
And if you say,
hey, go away, I will
But I think better still
I ought to stay around and love you"

Perhaps not a love theme persay, but just something to think about whenever you hear it.

I think I love you sounds v. much like a song Betie might tinker on the old ivory ;) although It sounds a little more like Jeeves' POV.
