Well
starwarsland has a
"do a fanmix" challenge so this is my (first) attempt at doing one, for the greater glory of the ironic underdog that is
teamempire . It's a bit... eclectic... but hey, it's an Anakin and Palpatine mix so maybe that's to be expected? I see this as going from when Anakin was nine in
The Phantom Menace to the Vader in
Return of the Jedi.
Most, but not all, of the songs can be found on youtube if you chase them up. It's a real mix of the familiar and unfamiliar.
Please download and listen. This took me all of Sunday afternoon to compile and I think it tells the story.

2. Garden of Shadows (katethegreat19)

EDIT: There are now links to download the wmas in mp3 format. Sorry about the wait, guys. Also I can't put Dream the Impossible dream on there because my CD is missing, the stupid software won't let my convert my wma file and there is no other version I can find which hits the right tone - too much guitar not enough brass... grrr!
