“Take My Hand” by Dido

I love this song. There is something about the relentless beat under the soaring melody that seems so urgent. It’s a surprisingly good song to exercise to! And I love the image of Simon taking Daphne’s hand and letting her help him heal.

“Mouth” by Merril Bainbridge

This song fits for so many reasons. Sometimes I feel it is Daphne (minus the part about being famous on TV.)
Note from JQ in 2023: Irony alert! Daphne is now TOTALLY famous on TV.

“God Only Knows” by the Beach Boys

This song makes me tingle. Somehow the emotion really fits the book.

“Pretty in Pink” by Psychedelic Furs

I don’t care how many pink covers I get for my books–The Duke and I will always be my Pink Book!

And now it’s green!
Note from JQ in 2023: it’s no longer green. But it’s also no longer pink.
