Good Omens Crowley and Aziraphale Reunited Playlist
In anticipation of Good Omens Season 3, hereā€™s the ā€œCrowley and Aziraphale Reunited and It Feels So Good Playlist.ā€ We know our favorite demon and angel will be reunited. Take heart, have faith, and keep hope. Crowley and Aziraphale will be together again, like chocolate and peanut butter. This is music Maggie and Nina would put together in a playlist for a party celebrating the Crowley and Aziraphaleā€™s relationship. The songs are about friendship and love.
How ever you as a fan define the love they share ā€“ eros, philia, or agape - we know Crowley and Aziraphale love each other. In the Good Omens universe, angels and demons are sexless and genderless. However, they can have genders and sex body parts if they want to. They can be sexual, asexual, binary, nonbinary, romantic, aromantic, hetero, homo, bi, pan. They can be any expression of the spectrum of identities and orientations. Above all else, they can love each other.
Maggie, Nina, Aziraphale, and Crowley are going to sing a karaoke version of ā€œThatā€™s What Friends Are Forā€ at the party.
Please enjoy this unashamedly, unapologetically romantic, silly, sentimental, and sugary playlist (with extra cheesy goodness).
See note after list on song the selection process.

ā€œYouā€™re My Best Friendā€ ā€“ Queen
ā€œLetā€™s Stay Togetherā€ ā€“ Al Green

ā€œTime After Timeā€ ā€“ Cyndi Lauper
ā€œIā€™ll Be Thereā€ ā€“ Mariah Carey and Trey Lorenz version
ā€œIā€™ll Stand by Youā€ ā€“ The Pretenders

ā€œNever Gonna Give You Upā€ ā€“ Rick Astley
ā€œEverlasting Loveā€ ā€“ U2 version
ā€œ[I Canā€™t Help] Falling in Love with Youā€ ā€“ UB40 version
ā€œLetā€™s Get It Onā€ ā€“ Marvin Gaye
P.S.: Aziraphale secretly loves romantic duets and rock ballads. He wouldnā€™t admit it because his personality is classical music. However, he longs to sing karaoke duets with Crowley. ā€œReunited,ā€ ā€œAinā€™t No Mountain High Enough,ā€ ā€œI Knew You Were Waiting (For Me),ā€ ā€œIā€™ll Be There,ā€ ā€œDonā€™t Let Me Down,ā€ ā€œUp Where We Belong,ā€ ā€œIslands in the Stream,ā€ ā€œEndless Love,ā€ ā€œAlmost Paradise,ā€ and ā€œLeather and Lace.ā€
P.P.S.: ā€œNever Gonna Give You Up.ā€ Crowley unironically loves this song, but he invented ā€œRickrolling,ā€ so Rick Astley would get paid more in song royalties. Whoā€™s laughing now?
P.P.P.S.: ā€œLetā€™s Get It On.ā€ Crowley has experienced all the infinite varieties of human, demonic, angelic, and supernatural being sexuality and intimacy. Like various ā€œsinsā€ thought up by humans (without demonic influence), he has taken credit for inventing some of the more fun, creative intimate activities. He consulted on the artwork in the Kama Sutra. Crowley secretly wants to snuggle under the blankets with Aziraphale on cold rainy days, but he would never admit it because it would ruin his reputation.
Note on song selection:
Yes, the playlist is exclusively classic pop and rock songs. Iā€™m a Gen Xer. David Tennant and Michael Sheen are Gen Xers. Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett are Boomers. This is the music I grew up listening to. These songs make me feel good. They donā€™t write songs like this anymore. Iā€™m a cool college English teacher. My job is to corrupt the youth of the nation. Ms. Myers is going to expose you to culture. Iā€™m a cool spinster aunt. Auntie Amy is gonna learn you about oldies music. I selected songs that thematically fit with the relationship between Aziraphale and Crowley. Listen to the lyrics. They fit. The list flows. You may not like my choices, so your mileage may vary. You can make your own playlist.
You can listen to it on YouTube.

So there's a famous classic song in my country that describes a girl losing her focus due to her overthinking about her lover which says:
"my father asked me to brew him a cup of coffee, I made tea and gave it to my mother"
And it's so adorable to say the least. <3

good omens the book, 1990: see, queen is so ubiquitous in london these days that if you leave a tape in a car for too long, it'll inevitably morph into a best of queen tape. which is why their megahits are playing in crowley's bentley all the time! isn't that a funny and topical joke?
good omens the show, 2019-2023: yeah crowley's car has a hands-free call system and also only plays cassette tapes. yeah it's whatever don't think about it. what's an incredibly earnest and passionate queen love song we can play during this scene where crowley tries urgently to reach aziraphale

ā€œIt's heartbreaking to hear someone say, I wasn't always like this. And by ā€˜thisā€™ they mean their anxiety, their fears, the little things that make them uncomfortable, the songs that make them look away and hold back tears, the way they struggle to trust again. As if ā€˜thisā€™ version deserves any less love and care than all of the people they have been. As if 'this' is something that makes them a burden.ā€

why is it that 90% of criticism of the song of achilles just boils down to not accepting the conventions of romance as a genre and wanting it to simply be a different book than what it is? because seriously if you canā€™t get with the fact that the song of achilles is a queer romance story first and a retelling of the iliad second youā€™re never gonna make a criticism of it thatā€™s interesting to me. if i wanted to read a book that was accurate to the source material then i would just read the iliad. if i wanted to read a queer romance unfolding on the backdrop of a mythical war i would read the song of achilles. if you dont understand the difference between those two things then your beef with that book is just a waste of time to me
