I think about it a lot but there's something really really beautiful about the Minecraft soundtrack.
You're in this world where you can do whatever you want, but instead of having adventure music or rpg tunes you get these.. beautiful notes of pianos and all sorts of music that just fills my soul. I've been listening to it for over a decade, and C418 has been my top Spotify artist for 3 years, but I still don't get tired of it.
Volumes Alpha and Beta are examples of genuinely perfect video game osts that bring me unending peace to the point where I went through a period of being unable to sleep unless it was playing.
It's absolutely fantastic and the knowledge that there's a third album out there that just can't be released harms me on a spiritual level.
I've wept over not being able to hear it a few times.
When it comes down to it, Minecraft's original soundtrack coupled with the original gameplay around the Xbox 360/Ps3 edition time period is one of my greatest sources of nostalgia.
This music, and game, has changed my life for the better and I don't see it get enough praise.

One of Us (The Lion King ll)
Born in grief/Raised in hate/Helpless to defy his fate/Let him run/Let him live/But do not forget what we cannot forgive
"This song is just so sad. In the context of the movie it’s Kovu, son of Scar, being exiled by Simba after a whole misunderstanding and trap set by his mom. But even without the context, the song as it is is just a big fuck me up song because it’s a song about exclusion, specifically very incredibly public and embarrassing exclusion. It captures that horrible feeling of isolation caused by discrimination and it makes me want to cry every time I hear this song"
Alpha (C418)
"GOD god this song. haha minecraft end song YOU DONT GET IT. its SO FUCKING GORGEOUS I CRY. when it only really starts to pick up after 3 WHOLE MINUTES. 3:33 fucking floors me every time i listen to it its so fucking PRETTY ok. the slow down the melancholy yet hopeful string lead that dies down and then PICKS RIGHT BACK UP!!! AND YOU GET ANOTHER TASTE OF THE RIFF. and then its back to SAD SIMPLE PIANO. GAH. i will die on this hill. it's a 10 minute song but by god its all really really good. AND THE FACT IT'S JUST A BUNCH OF CLASSIC MINECRAFT SONG LEITMOTIFS TOO. you know c418 knew exactly what the fuck he was doing when composing this masterpiece. it has sad moments it has nostalgia all over it's like a ballad it sounds like what it feels to be running through the grass on a windy day and then the QUIET NETHER MUSIC-Y FADE OUT. GOD. I GOTTA SHUT UP BEFORE I CRY IRL"
"It feels like the end of an era, the beggining of the world, it feels like if trancendence was made symphony. But most importantly, it feels like nostalgia."

༻`` 05 Jan 24 — Friday
100 days of productivity 5/100
Was very productive today in school even though one of the classes absolutely drained me. I'll work on teaching myself most of the course. Plus I have my very first study entry of the year!! (It was a lot more than 15 mins but I don't count it during class). I also pushed myself to walk one of my dogs and I jogged for a very good amount. You can be sure I was wheezing at the end of it, but very feeling happy and proud of myself. I'm so tired now... goodnight everyone :)

Okay, I'm gonna do something funny.
Giving bands I've listened to a number rating
Here's my music playlist for reference:
I'll only be ranking bands or musicians that I have listened to 3 different songs from. So MF Doom will not be on the list, sorry
Queen
Rating: 9/10
Favorite song: Don't Stop Me Now
Notes: I'm pretty sure it's impossible to not have listened to at least 1 Queen song. They're one of the most popular bands out there for a reason.
Daft Punk
Rating: 10/10
Favorite song: Instant Crush or Make Love
Notes: Actually my favorite musical duo of all time. They haven't fumbled the bag with their albums once, and they went out on a perfect high note with Random Access Memories.
Scatman John
Rating: 7.5/10
Favorite song: Scatman's World or Scatman (Game Over Jazz)
Notes: Probably one of the most inspirational guys in media. He took his verbal problems and turned it into his career. I hope he rests in peace.
Pink Floyd
Rating: 7/10
Favorite song: Wish You Were Here or Comfortably Numb
Notes: Weird band, since they can range from high highs to aggressively middling. The good outweighs the bad, though, and The Wall movie slaps hard.
Tenacious D
Rating: 9/10
Favorite song: Wonderboy
Notes: Petition to let Jack Black make a song for any upcoming movie.
David Bowie
Rating: 9.5/10
Favorite song: Blackstar or Starman
Notes: The fact that you can see David's bulge in Labyrinth either convinces me I should watch it or keeps me away from it. Depends on the day.
John Williams
Rating: 8.5/10
Favorite song: Superman theme
Notes: I'm surprised he's still alive at this point.
Ween
Rating: 8/10
Favorite song: Ocean Man
Notes: They made a song called "Waving My Dick in the Wind." Haven't listened to it yet
Toby Fox
Rating: 10/10
Favorite song: Undertale
Notes: If I remember correctly, didn't Toby make some tracks for YIIK? What's he doing in there?
Lemon Demon
Rating: 9/10
Favorite song: Touch-Tone Telephone, Cabinet Man, or Two Trucks
Notes: My mom hates Lemon Demon because of Two Trucks.
C418
Rating: 10/10
Favorite song: Aviva
Notes: N/A
Neil Ciciereaga
Rating: 7/10
Favorite song: Mouth Pressure or Bustin
Notes: The Mouth Albums go extraordinary hard for what are essentially glorified All-Star memes.
Bill Wurtz
Rating: 9/10
Favorite song: the ending or here comes the sun
Notes: hi, you're on a rock, floating in space. pretty cool, huh?
Duster
Rating: 10/10
Favorite song: Inside Out or Me and the Birds
Notes: Just discovered them. Those stupid Sisyphus memes were good for something.
Austin Farwell
Rating: 8.5/10
Favorite song: New Home (Slowed)
Notes: Prepare to rethink everything you've done.
Will Wood
Rating: 9.5/10
Favorite song: "Mr. Capgras," "Love, Me Normally," or "Against the Kitchen Floor"
Notes: The difference between his first three albums and "in case I make it" is the funniest thing I've seen. Bro pulled a 180 (or a 90). Good for him.
Conclusion
Music is cool. Bye
