Fanmix - Mac +/- Cassidy Generalizations & Realizations  
I started working on the mix quite some time ago. Actually since about the time of the season 2 finale. But it went forgotten, lost in the vast expanse of my hard drive until today. I finally tweeked the song list and made some album art and now I'm ready to share.

This isn't a happy mix, but it isnt an overly angsty one either. I hope I found some sort of middle ground with it.






&. 01 | One Thing - Finger Eleven
// If I traded it all, If I gave it all away for one thing, Just for one thing, If I sorted it out, If I knew all about this one thing, Wouldn’t that be something, Even though I know I don’t want to know. Yeah I guess I know. I just hate how it sounds.
-- Missing Scenes between 2.09 & 2.13 with Cassidy struggling to start a relationship with Mac because of everything that happened to him in the past.

&. 02 | Teardrop - Jose Gonzalez
// Love is a doing word Fearless on my breath. Gentle impulsion Shakes me makes me lighter, Fearless on my breath.
-- The beginning of their relationship where everything was fun and hanging out with each other, especially the way Mac is when she's talking to Veronica about keeping Cassidy company in 2.13.

&. 03 | Lovesong - Jack Off Jill
// Whenever I'm alone with you You make me feel like I am home again. Whenever I'm alone with you You make me feel like I am whole again. Whenever I'm alone with you You make me feel like I am young again. Whenever I'm alone with you, You make me feel like I am fun again.
-- Cassidy's feelings for Mac. She makes him feel things he didn't think he ever could again.

&. 04 | Feeling Good - Nina Simone
// It's a new dawn , It's a new day, It's a new life For me...And I'm feeling good.
-- Both Cassidy and Mac's feelings for each other in 2.13 when they're plotting Dick's demise.

&. 05 | Run - Snow Patrol
// You've been the only thing that's right In all I've done. And I can barely look at you, But every single time I do I know we'll make it anywhere Away from here.
-- Cassidy's feelings during their break up scene. Mac's his silver lining but he doesn't want to hurt her so he leaves her.

&. 06 | Goodnight and Go - Imogen Heap
// Why'd you have to be so cute? It's impossible to ignore you. Must you make me laugh so much? It's bad enough we get along so well.
-- Mac's feelings while she watches Cassidy's attempt to tutor Weevil.

&. 07 | Wasted Years - Cold
// Was it life I betrayed for the shape that I'm in? It's not hard to fail, it's not easy to win. Did I drink too much? Could I disappear? and there's nothing that's left but wasted years. If I could change my life. Be a simple kind of man try to do the best I can.
-- Pretty much Cassidy's entire state of mind on graduation night, both at the party and when he's alone with Mac. He wants to change for her, but he can't get past himself.

&. 08 | Beautiful Disaster - Kelly Clarkson
// Oh and I don't know, I don't know what is after. But he's so beautiful, such a beautiful disaster. And if I could hold on through the tears and the laughter, Would it be beautiful or just a beautiful disaster.
-- Mac and her thoughts on graduation night while lying in bed watching Cassidy after their seemingly failed attempt to have sex.

&. 09 | 30 Minutes - tatu
// Out of sight, out of mind. Out of time to decide. Do we run? Should I hide for the rest of my life.
-- Cassidy's jumbled thoughts after getting the text message from Veronica. What should he do?

&. 10 | Silent Night - Damien Rice
// Silent night, broken night. All is fallen when you take your flight. I found some hate for you just for show. You found some love for me thinking I'd go. Don't keep me from crying to sleep. Sleep in heavenly peace. Silent night, moonlit night, nothing's changed, nothing is right. I should be stronger than weeping alone. You should be weaker than sending me home. I can't stop you fighting to sleep. Sleep in heavenly peace.
-- Mac's entire state of being the summer after Cassidy jumps. She's torn between hating him for the things he's done and loving him for being the guy he was with her.

&. 11 | The Perfect Fit - The Dresden Dolls
// can't you do it for me, i'll pay you well. fuck i'll pay you anything if you could end this. can't you just fix it for me, it's gone berserk...fuck i'll give you anything if you can make the damn thing work.
-- Mac during season 3, reeling from the aftermath and trying her best to put herself back together. In the end she turns to Bronson to fix her.
