The art is really beautiful! But is this just an S6 mix? Or can we use songs which'd fit them in S5 too? Also, please add Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits! I've been thinking about some more, will post soon.

EDIT: I'm unsure about After The Storm by Mumford and Sons. It doesn't ~scream 'this is a song about Rich and Grace' but it makes me think of the way Rich retains hope after Grace's death, and this paragraph works well for their relationship, showing how much they benefit from love whereas other characters on Skins are shwon to suffer:

And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.


'Get over your hill and see what you find there' reminds of Rich at the beginning of S5, when he originally puts up boundaries against Grace. I also like that the lyric 'with grace in your heart' is used :')

This makes me think of Rich after Grace's death:

And now I cling to what I knew
I saw exactly what was true
But oh no more.
That's why I hold,
That's why I hold with all I have.
That's why I hold.


And then obviously the entire song is about both death and love (as many of M & S' songs are.) What do you think?
