Who, me?

No, I know what you're talking about:

Gasoline Believer (Halsey x Imagine Dragons) by Gingergreen

Halsey & Imagine Dragons - Gasoline Believer (GINGERGREEN Mixed Mashup) by GINGERGREEN 'returns

Coming back to the remixes I found while 2020 was wrecking us all, I recently recalled this one and remembered I wanted to share it with you! It’s a mix of Halsey’s “Gasoline” and Imagine Dragon’s “Believer,” and I really like it. More than that, I kind of associate it with my Fallout of Darkness verse! I’ve featured “Gasoline” on here before as a song for Malkavian!Alice, but I’m not QUITE sure what about the “Believer” part of the remix makes me think of Sole Survivor!Victor. I think it’s the general feel of trying to make your way in a world after suffering trauma. . . *looks up the lyrics on Genius Lyrics* Yeah, this does feel like a rather Victorish song, I mean, look at this bit:

“I was chokin' in the crowd Building my rain up in the cloud Falling like ashes to the ground Hoping my feelings, they would drown“

That feels like Victor to me! Both in the literal “he doesn’t do well surrounded by lots of people” sense and the more metaphorical “he doesn’t feel like he fits in with others a lot” sense (pre-War, Victor was not a fan of the government and often felt like the only reason he didn’t get “disappeared” is because of his rich white father). And I like the beginning with “I’m fired up and tired of/the way that things have been, oh-hooo” -- makes me think of a Victor starting to embrace the freedoms that come in the Commonwealth after the War. It’s good stuff!

Panic! At The Disco - Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time Megamix ft M&tD Lana Mel top Halsey Troye by GINGERGREEN 'mashups

So the minimix I featured last week (which is NOT MINE, btw, there was a little confusion on that point) turned out to be pretty popular!

What do you guys think of a mix that features fourteen different songs?

Yup, it’s time for a MEGAMIX, courtesy of Gingergreen here (again, not me). I stumbled across this right after finding last week’s mix, and -- well, I was blown away. How on earth do you get fourteen songs to play so well together?! I was, am, and remain thoroughly impressed, and I want to share it with all of you. It’s just -- the perfect combination to get up and dance to. Which I think is something we all need a little more of during this hell year.

If you’re curious, here’s the fourteen songs, taken from the video’s description:
