Songs that made me think of my OTP | Top Ten Tuesday

Top Ten Tuesday is a feature hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week is all about music & books. This is such a hard subject for me because I mostly listen to the same songs all the time. To be honest, I think I wrote this post three times. 

I figured out why: I finished Frozen Tides yesterday and can't think of anything but Magnus and Cleo, bookwise. I'll still try to change my mind with Me Before You (I'll think the result will be the same, ha-ha). Funny story, when I started this series, I thought I wouldn't get too involved. But I need the fifth book now. I don't care that it'll probably be released in December, I want it now. Is it too early to preorder?

Anyway, because of that, I choose to do a post about some of my favourite songs that make me song of Magneo, OTP of all the OTPs at the moment. I'm going with seven songs and am totally cheating, but the number seven is for perfection, so it's totally appropriate. When I'm explaining, I'm trying to be vague, because spoilers for people who haven't read this series yet. And should. I think I'm too involved into this. 

1. Listen to Your Heart // DHT

Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

Why? Because of all the denial, since they're supposed to hate each other.

2. You Found Me // The Fray

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Why? Um what about the ending of the first book? Because poor Cleo, she totally needed someone to confort her. 

3. 4 Real // Avril Lavigne

And I just wanted you to knowI don't wanna look backCause I know that we haveSomething the past could never change.And I'm stuck in the momentAnd my heart is openTell me that you feel the same 

Why? Um the past is a serious problem in the first book, because of a murder Magnus committed. But Cleo is healing from the enormous wound and now they can be together. 

4. The Devil's Tears // Angus and Julia Stone

He said, "I am the devil, boy, come with meAnd we'll make many storms"He offered me the universeBut inside my heart there's a picture of a girlSome call love a curse, some call love a thiefShe's my homeAnd she's as much apart for this broken heartBut see broken bones always seem to mend

Why? The devil is obviously King Gaius, Magnus' father, who tried to kill Cleo on several occasions but he's failing, haha.

5. Safe and Sound // Taylor Swift (ft. The Civil Wars)

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

Why? Because they're in an insecure world where everyone is murdered/tortured/wounded. But in a scene they found a little peace. Can it be like that all the time?

6. Demons // Imagine Dragons

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

Why? Magnus did some horrible things and Cleo totally gets it. Even though she tried to stay away, like the song said, she started believing in him, and it's beautiful.

7. Let Her Go // Passenger

You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies
But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Why? I'm thinking of some events in Frozen Tides, tbh.  

Which songs remind you of your favourite books/OTPs?
