Date: 2013-07-15 02:20 pm (UTC)I've always wanted fic for Scarborough Fair (either Simon and Garfunkel or not).
Mandoline by Faure, lyrics here
Le Secret (Faure), lyrics here
Schumann's setting is gorgeous and moving, and at the same time the text sets off all my creeper vibes: Du bist wie eine Blume, lyrics here
I'm sure I have a bunch more, I will probably be back...

There are a great many Child ballads I'd like to nominate, actually, Tam Lin, Lady Isabel and the Elf Knight, Riddles Wisely Expounded, but I'm planning on writing those myself for other reasons so I'm not sure I'm actually going to nominate any of them. Though it is not as though there is only one way to interpret any of the ballads...lemme go edit my initial brainstorming comment.

Date: 2013-07-26 02:30 am (UTC)Do you happen to have heard Hannah Fury's "Scars"? It's not "Scarborough Fair" but it's the same tune and related lyrics, and I forgot all about it till just now when it came up on shuffle. And my nominations are already reviewed and approved and unchangeable.

Date: 2013-07-27 05:05 am (UTC)I'm not sure if I'm interested in fic for that (I'll think about it), but now that I know we have EIGHT NOMINATIONS (!) I think I can slip that one in :) (I wouldn't have been able to with four... :) )
