meridian_rose | V: Unholy Trinity

From the initial realisation of the problem (Track 1), the mix explores all of the possible pairings (Tracks 2—11), culminating in one last attempt to ignore their feelings (Track 12) and when that fails, well, what's wrong with a threesome between friends (Tracks 13-15)?

1. Ever Fallen In Love With Someone (You Shouldn't've Fallen In Love With)? / BUZZCOCKS watch at Youtube
Jack/Erica/Hobbes
Jack's supposed to be celibate, Hobbes and Erica are supposed to be on opposite sides of the law. None of them should be looking to be in love with either of the other two.

Ever fallen in love with someone?
Ever fallen in love?
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love? (Love…)
In love with someone
You shouldn't've fallen in love with

I can't see much of a future
Unless we find out what's to blame
What a shame
And we won't be together much longer
Unless we realize that we are the same

2. Missionary Man / Eurythmics watch at Youtube
Erica/Jack
She's strong and independent and should know better than to corrupt a priest

My mother told me good
My mother told me strong.
She said "be true to yourself
And you can't go wrong."
"But there's just one thing
That you must understand."
"You can fool with your brother -
But don't mess with a missionary
man."
…
Well the missionary man
He's got God on his side.
He's got the saints and apostles
Backin' up from behind.
Black eyed looks from those Bible books.
He's a man with a mission
Got a serious mind.
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree.
The missionary man he was followin' me.
He said "stop what you're doing."
"Get down upon your knees."
"I've got a message for you that you
better believe."

3. I Don't Know How To Love Him / Marti Webb watch the Sarah Brightman version at Youtube
Erica/Jack
She never thought she'd fall in love again after Dale and now she's not sure how to approach him

I don't know how to love him.
What to do, how to move him.
I've been changed, yes really changed.
In these past few days, when I've seen myself,
I seem like someone else.
I don't know how to take this.
I don't see why he moves me.
He's a man. He's just a man.
…
Don't you think it's rather funny,
I should be in this position.
I'm the one who's always been
So calm, so cool, no lover's fool,
Running every show.
He scares me so.
I never thought I'd come to this.
What's it all about?

4. What Would Happen / Meredith Brooks watch at Youtube
Erica/Jack
Between her relationship with Dale and the fact he's a priest, Jack is her forbidden fruit but that doesn't stop her fantasising

What would happen if we kissed
Would your tongue slip past my lips
Would you run away, would you stay
Or would I melt into you
Mouth to mouth, lust to lust
…
Forbidden fruit
Ring on my finger
You're such a moral, moral man
You throw it away, no question
Will I pretend I'm innocent

5. Like a Prayer / Glee Cast - watch at Youtube
Jack/Erica
He's falling for her, even if that challenges his faith

Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone.
I hear you call my name and it feels like
Home

When you call my name, it’s like a little
Prayer. I’m down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour, I can feel your power
Just like a prayer, you know I’ll take you there

I hear your voice, it’s like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice, feels like flying
I close my eyes, oh God, I think I’m falling
out of the sky. I close my eyes
Heaven help me.

6. Can't Help Falling in Love / Hi-STANDARD watch at Youtube
Jack/Erica ; Jack/Hobbes.
A divorcee on hand or a man on the other; either would be a sin according to his faith even if he weren't a priest but he can't help himself. (This is a punk cover of the Elvis song)

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

7. Desperado / THE EAGLES watch at Youtube
Jack/Hobbes
Hobbes is a loner but Jack tries to persuade him to settle down

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses
You've been out ridin' fences, for so long - now.
Oh you're a hard one.
I know that you've got your reasons.
These things that are pleasin'you
Can hurt you somehow.
…
Desperado, Oh you aint getting no younger.
Your pain and your hunger,
They're driving you home.
And freedom, oh freedom.
Well that's just some people talking.
Your prison is walking through this world all alone.
…
Desperado,
Why don't you come to your senses?
come down from your fences, open the gate.
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you.
….
You better let somebody love you -
before it's too.. late.

8. Anybody There / The Script watch at Youtube
Hobbes/Jack
He knows better than to trust his emotions, he knows he's a sinner, but this feels so right

My head keeps saying "no"
But my heart keeps giving in
So hard to let it go
When it's there, under my skin.

Well if this is the face of a sinner
And if heaven is only for winners
Well I don't care
Cause I won't know
Anybody there

Thought that I'd let it slide
But it's me that's slipping in
Thought that I'd go for a ride
Before this crash I'm dying in.

9. I Don't Want To Fall In Love / SHE WANTS REVENGE watch at Youtube
Hobbes/Erica
She's his equal in so many ways, but he's bad for her and besides he can't risk falling in love and being distracted

I would like to tell you, I would like to say
That I knew that this would happen
That things would go this way
But I cannot deceive you, this was never planned
I know that you're the right girl but do you think that I am the right man?

1...2...3...4,5,6,7,
Right face wrong time, she's sweet
(But I don't wanna fall in love)
Too late, so deep, better run cause
(but I don't wanna fall in love)
Can't sleep, can't eat, can't think straight
(I don't wanna)

You say it's not a problem, You say it's meant to be
But love is not an option, our love is never free
And things are not so easy, so cold and we've been burned
I know that I'll have regrets but that's the price of one more lesson learned

10. Toxic / Britney Spears watch at Youtube
Erica/Hobbes
He's the bad boy her mother warned her about but that just makes it all the more enticing

Baby, can't you see
I'm calling
A guy like you should wear a warning
It's dangerous
I'm falling

There's no escape
I can't wait
I need a hit
Baby, give me it
You're dangerous

11. Poison / Groove Coverage watch at Youtube
Erica/Hobbes
He's a mercenary, heartless when necessary, and not the sort of man she should love but she can't help feeling an attraction

Your cruel device
your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill...

I wanna love you but I better not touch
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
Your poison running through my veins

12. Temptation (1992) Brothers in Rhythm remix / Heaven 17 watch at Youtube
Jack/Erica/Hobbes
Lead us not into temptation; it's a little late for that…

I've never been closer
I've tried to understand
That certain feeling
Carved by another's hand
But it's too late to hesitate
We can't keep on living like this
Leave no track
Don't look back

All I desire
Temptation
Keep climbing higher and higher
Temptation
Adorable creatures
Temptation
With unacceptable features
Temptation
Trouble is coming
Temptation
It's just the high cost of loving
Temptation
You can take it or leave it
Temptation
…
Keep us from temptation
Lead us not into temptation

13. Bizarre Love Triangle / NEW ORDER watch at Youtube
Jack/Erica/Hobbes

Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind
But there's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of the fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
well every day my confusion grows

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say

I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

14. Triad / Jefferson Airplane watch at Youtube
Erica/Jack/ Hobbes

You want to know how it will be
Me and him OR you and me
You both stand there your long hair flowing
Eyes alive your mind still growing
Saying to me--"What can we do now that we both love you",
I love you two-- I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three
You are afraid--embarrassed too
No one has ever said such a thing to you
…
So you see--what we can do--is to try something new—
If you're crazy too—
I don't really see
Why can't we go on as three.

15. Love With The 3 Of Us / Stereo Total watch at Youtube
Erica/Jack/ Hobbes

What I love
is to make love
with the 3 of us
it's absolutely out
I know it's hippieshit
but I say it loud
with the 3 of us ... I love it

What I love

crazy, eccentric
animal, romantic
it is communistic
