QaF Finale song and spoilers... steer clear, virgins!

[exsequar]

I've been listening to a song from QaF 513 over and over and over again (thanks theaeblackthorn *hugs*) and I just paid attention to the lyrics for the first time and realized how fucking perfect the song is.


Never thought I'd see her go away
She learned that I loved her today
Never thought I'd see her cry
And I learned how to love her today
Never thought I'd rather die than try
To keep her by my side

Now she's gone
Love burns inside me (x3)
- from "Love Burns" by Black Rebel Motorcycle club

That plays over BJ's LAST SEX ScENE *nearly has a heart attack from saying that* and it's just.... so appropriate. I think that's why they chose it even though it blatantly and repeatedly says "her," because it's just so damn appropriate. Just as Brian finally learns to admit his LOVE, Justin goes away. Through Brian's loving consent of course, but still. He's GONE. *sniffles* I think it's another case of the show saying what's unsaid with the lyrics (case in point: PLEASE DONT TAKE MY SUNSHINE AWAY) because even though Brian is letting Justin go and they're on very positive terms, he's still burning inside with this feeling that he's just admitted to himself, but Justin is... gone. It's saddening and makes me feel for my poor Brian, but at the same time it's heartening because it's saying that their flame is burning bright (like Em! hee) and will definitely not die any time soon. This is a B/J ending that holds hope and promise for the future, and this song upholds that I think.

I am trying SO HARD to be positive here, as you can tell. But regardless, it is a LOVELY song. I'll probably upload it later, when the finale has aired.

ETA: I uploaded it now! http://s43.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=02C3VHS7HB45S2W9IHSW2IKUD8 Sooo good...

The "her" kind of annoys me actually. But it IS damn perfect, thematically. VERY perfect.

Why the hell am I still awake?

I don't know, why the hell am *I* still awake?? We should go to bed! Silly us!

The song is so good that the her doesnt even bother me any more. I just had it on repeat for like an hour and didn't notice or get bored cause it's that good.

I totally don't remember what it sounds like. I may have downloaded it like a month ago, though. Err.

Yes, sleep. Sounds fun. I WAS TOO TIRED TO BE AWAKE WHEN I POSTED MY 508 RAMBLE 3 HOURS AGO OMGWTF.
