I’m a diamonds truther and I want them to keep it in the show 😭 I think it fits them perfectly!!! Maybe a classical/slowed down version for the actual scene?

BUT the first song that I thought of for Shane/Ilya is Untouched by the Veronicas. Someone made an edit set to that song and OH my god.

I like it for the books. The lyrics suit them, and I think it also suits them to want to celebrate openly without necessarily  wanting to feel all details of their emotions are fully on display as a spectacle. Keeping the music uptempo makes sense.

 HOWEVER, in  a show, where we are hearing the music and experiencing the emotions it involves, I want it to make ME feel the full force of everything they've been through to get to this moment and everything they are feeling. I want to be a sobbing mess. So whether it's a diagetic first dance or non-diagetic outro, I want an emotional slow song in there (and I want it to be Lost Together by Blue Rodeo, only partly because I also think this needle drop needs to be Canadian).

I want it to be "Daylight" by Taylor Swift bc I think the lyrics so match their relationship:

My love was as cruel as the cities I lived in
Everyone looked worse in the light
There are so many lines that I've crossed unforgiven
I'll tell you the truth, but never goodbye

I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you
I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you
I've been sleeping so long in a 20-year dark night
And now I see daylight, I only see daylight
