āDonāt look, Iris!ā
Iād also like to throw in She Blinded Me With Science, specifically for Barry
Hello there G.L. and everyone else.
The Flash!
Iāll add in my running song as well.
And whatās that Barryā¦ A timeline? Waitā¦ Uh ohā¦ That can only mean one thing.
I completely missed last week and for this week, well, I find it hard to beat āBorn to Runā and āIf I Could Turn Back Timeā for this list. Still, I will offer my somewhat uninspired choices for todayās mixtape:
The fun song (with the oddly appropriate line)
āDonāt Stop Me Nowā by Queen
Tonight Iām gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive
And the world Iāll turn it inside out, yeah
Iām floating around in ecstasy
So, (donāt stop me now)
(Donāt stop me)
'Cause Iām having a good time, having a good time
The other fun song (NSFW should you decide to look it up and listen)
āMarathonā by Dilated Peoples
The first part of the chorus screams Flash and his demeanor to me:
Yo, they go off when they go on
On and on, on and on (Marathon)
Pace yourself so you can face yourself
Run hard, you really only race yourself
The second part describes the whole Flash Familyās powers and purpose:
Yo, they go off when they go on
On and on, on and on (Marathon)
But we donāt run from ####, we run to it
Might run over your #### or run through it
And for a third(!) fun song, one with an oddly Flashpoint-specific bent to it
āEdge of Seventeenā by Stevie Nicks
And the days go by
Like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own
I begin again
Said to my friend, baby
Nothinā else mattered
I also find it kind of funny she has a best-of album called āTimespaceā. Did she know something back then?
Awesome selection! This (and the similarly NSFW Run by Ghostface Killah) used to be staples of my run mix. I should start running again.
I was hoping to see I Ran (So Far Away) here.
One for Barry and Iris, their āLightening Rodā love storyā¦
And the one thing the Flashās Rogues Gallery are always thinkingā¦
In the immortal words of Luz Noceda, "Yes, yes, yes, yes. YEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!
Canāt believe Iām the first one to use this here, especially because Iāve used it before, butā¦
Additionally, if the āRunning Up That Hillā thatās been posted here already is not just a cover of Kate Bushās song of the same name, then my second entry is Bushās āRunning Up That Hillā. But if it is, then my second entry is this Flashpoint-y song:
Once again just going 1st two that pop in. Iām not mad at that tho, go ahead Johnny T.
Shouldāve used that (machinehead) for Cyborg. Whole song fits thoā¦one moreā¦
Thanks for posting this and reminding me this song exists!
