Anyone Fancy an Eurythmics song Fictathon?

[lady_windermere]

Ok, been listening to The Eurythmics, and thinking that two of their songs would really trasfer well to fic or manips...So thought I would host one. Open to all fandoms, all pairings, and OFC or OMC's....what ever you want. In any way you want to interprate the two prompts, got right ahead!


Love is a stranger
In an open car
To tempt you in
And drive you far away

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
Its an obsession

Love is a danger
Of a different kind
To take you away
And leave you far behind
And love love love
Is a dangerous drug
You have to receive it
And you still cant
Get enough of the stuff

Its savage and its cruel
And it shines like destruction
Comes in like the flood
And it seems like religion
Its noble and its brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it wrenches you up
And youre left like a zombie

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
Its an obsession

Its guilt edged
Glamorous and sleek by design
You know its jealous by nature
False and unkind
Its hard and restrained
And its totally cool
It touches and it teases
As you stumble in the debris

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
Its an obsession



Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I wanna use you and abuse you
I wanna know what's inside you
(Whispering) Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Hold your head up, movin' on
Keep your head up, movin' on
Movin' on!

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused


For anyone interested in Buffy!Verse or Torchwood, I do so love Dom or/and Toppy Spike or Captain John, so they would be loved and stored! Just my personal preference, feel free to ignore.

Sweet Dreams is one of my favorite songs by The Eurythmics. I have the cd in my car so I can play it all the time.

Oh yes, me too! I bought it and put it on for my friend to listen to, then found out she had bought it too!

Then Love is a Stranger had fond memories of listening to it on the Old Grey Whistle Test....I loved that programme

You know...I've had exactly the same thought every time I've listened to 1 of the compilation CD's I made that has 1 of their songs on it? I have "Sweet Dreams Are Made of This" on one and "Here Comes the Rain Again" on another. You know, some of Annie's are good, too. "Walking on Broken Glass" in particular would be perfect for a Spike fic, as he's "love's bitch."

Oh yes, I think both these songs would be great for a ficathon. Not great on song ones, but they scream out to be used.
