I dunno if anyone's said this yet but...Demons by Imagine Dragons.

I went to listen to it cause I like it as a song (and as a Doctor Who song), and I was thinking that it was vaguely Johnlock, but then I really paid attention and it is so Johnlock that I was shocked and wanting to cry because...Reichenbach feels a million times over! The only thing that doesn't fit: I don't thinks Sherlock believes in fate. Other than that, it's hard to believe it wasn't written for this show.

Edit: Okay, someone did say it. Good, I'm not the only one

"Don't wanna hide the truth"....Oh, Sherlock.

Not sure if it can be interpreted that way, but since TEH 'Bonfire Heart' has a completely new meaning to me. 

Here's another one I've just found on my playlist - James Blake "retrograde". Makes me think of HLV and *that* shot.

You're on your own, in a world you've grown
Few more years to go,
Don't let the hurdle fall
So be the girl you loved,
Be the girl you loved

I'll wait, so show me why you're strong
Ignore everybody else,
We're alone now
I'll wait, so show me why you're strong
Ignore everybody else,
We're alone now

Suddenly I'm hit
Is this darkness or the dawn
And your friends are gone
When you friends won't come
So show me where you fit
So show me where you fit

I'll wait, so show me why you're strong
Ignore everybody else,
We're alone now
We're alone now
We're alone now
I'll wait

Suddenly I'm hit
Is this darkness or the dawn
And your friends are gone
When you friends won't come
So show me where you fit

There was a country band in the '90s, known as Diamond Rio, whose songs were on a death-theme kick for a while, and as such, they work for post-Reichenbach (yes, with some Johnlock implied):


"You're Gone," http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/diamondrio/youregone.html

"I Believe," http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/diamondrio/ibelieve.html

"One More Day," http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/diamondrio/onemoreday.html


And this one is not by Diamond Rio. Unfortunately, I think it could sum up John's relationship with Sherlock, and perhaps Molly's as well.

And this one, I suppose they both feel that way about each other, but it's John who believes Sherlock can move mountains:

For the Hiatus years (and may apply to Molly, too): http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/kennyrogers/icantunloveyou.html

These might be appropriate reunion songs:

"Here You Come Again" 

"Heart Over Mind,"

http://www.metrolyrics.com/heart-over-mind-lyrics-lorrie-morgan.html

I realize the references to a guy who romances multiple women don't necessarily work for Sherlock, but that "You can always manipulate me even though I know you well, and I can't say no to you," kind of works.

"After All." I was reminded of the line "We tried it on our own," during the scene where John is trying to do his normal doctor work, and you can tell he SO wants to break down and go get with Sherlock.

"I'd Rather" http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/luthervandross/idrather.html (The "someone else" could be either Mary or Molly.)

And then of course, the "rise from the dead," theme. This song would probably be from Anderson's point of view: http://www.godtube.com/watch/?v=0FF1CCNU (It refers to the singer having done something that was a betrayal or a denial of the relationship...did John ever do anything pre-fall that could be seen as a betrayal of Sherlock, or not believing)?

PARTICLE MAN IS PRICELESS...THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!

Love that vid, Ukaunz.  It's really good and fits perfectly with their relationship. Thanks for posting.

Bringing a bit of contribution, I think this one adheres quite well to Sherlock's POV -from when he stood behind a tree when John was at his grave to when he returned to him. And a bit...yeah "take shot for you"

Apologise -Onerepublic.I'm holding on your rope

Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say, but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say

That it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'd take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it's nothing new, yeah, yeah
I loved you with a fire red
Now it's turning blue, and you say
Sorry like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late, whoa
It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I said it's too late to apologize, yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah
I'm holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground
