Songs that are so Thomas Andrews x Rose Andrews DeWitt Bukater coded in my head:
“king of the world, pt 2” - Ben Platt
Reason: it mentions Titanic…so yk.
“And he tells you you're the king of the world
That's just love on the Titanic
When you think you found forever
'Cause it seems like you can never get enough”
“In Your Love” - Tyler Childers
Reason: it’s a “star crossed lovers” anthem even though these two lived a long happy life together in my head
“We were never made to run forever
We were just meant to go long enough
To find what we were chasin' after
I believe I found it here
In your love”
“Top of the World” - Hunchback of Notre Dame the Musical
Reason: listenlistenlisten…just imagine the “Jack! I’m flying” scene but with Thomas and Rose, and these are Rose’s thoughts
“Seeing life from the top of the world
Nothing needs fighting
And no one needs pity
Thanks for giving this moment to me
When just for a moment things stop
Here at the top of the world”
“So Will I” - Ben Platt
Reason: HELLO? this song is so gentle, and Thomas is a gentle man, and the calm to Rose’s storm. And this song is just…so soothing for my anxiety.
“You say, "What if I don't catch the dreams
That I've been out there chasing?"
"What if when my fears show up, I'm too afraid to face them?"
Well, I can't fight your battles
But I sure can hold your hand and promise you
That the sky will still be up there
And the sun will always shine
The stars will keep on fallin'
For the ones who wish at night
The mountains won't start moving
And the rivers won't run dry
The world will always be there
And so will I”
“A Safe Place to Land” - Sarah Bareilles, John Legend
Reason: they are both each other’s safe place to land. that’s it.
“The ocean is wild and over your head
And the boat beneath you is sinking
Don't need room for your bags, hope is all that you have
So say the Lord's Prayer twice, hold your babies tight
Surely someone will reach out a hand
And show you a safe place to land”
“Remedy” - Adele
reason: the first part is Rose’s pov for sure, but the rest of the song can be either.
“I remember all of the things that I thought I wanted to be
So desperate to find a way out of my world and finally breathe
Right before my eyes, I saw that my heart, it came to life
This ain't easy, it's not meant to be
Every story has its scars
But when the pain cuts you deep
When the night keeps you from sleeping
Just look and you will see
That I will be your remedy”
“Make You Feel My Love” Adele
reason: okay so sorta takes place during that scene where Rose is like “Jack leave me alone” in the workout room but it’s Thomas Andrews and he is…yea.
“When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I will never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong”
“Run Away” - Ben Platt
Reason: yes. another Ben Platt song…I have a weak spot for any song that I can picture Mr. Andrews reassuring Rose that she can let her guard down.
“I love you more and more each day
To love is not to leave
So, hear me when I say
"I may not be wise
And I won't save the day
But look in my eyes
And know I'll always stay
And I won't run away"”
