Notes
“You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind* and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person died for no reason.”
- Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast

Honestly it's SO HARD to find a playlist that so perfectly reflects their relationship, both the sweet and the melancholy. This is gold! ⃠

I asked a friend for a playlist prompt and she asked for songs John and Sherlock heard in the autumn when they were young. Songs that may hauntingly echo what they would experience in the future. A mix of melancholy nostalgia. I came up with this.
