#anyway anyway! love the chorus on this song
Note
AITA for filming parts of concerts? I love going to see live music whenever I can, and before recently, I was very much of the opinion that there was no point in filming the songs you're listening to because they wont be worth listening back to anyway bc the quality will be so bad, so you're just wasting your time not enjoying the music when thats what you paid so much money to go there to do! But now I have a better phone that actually does manage to capture the moment pretty well, I really like recording sections of songs to listen and watch back later on. I post them on my private instagram, but they are really just for me. It's really nice to be able to go back and not just remember that moment that you were there better, but also feel the energy of the crowd and stuff like that and relive it just for a moment, and any time I haven't captured part of a concert I've been to I've regretted it later on.
Thing is, I also agree that there is literally nothing worse than standing in a crowd and not even being able to see the damn stage because all you can see is phone screens! It's really disruptive and takes you out of the experience. So I try and strike a healthy balance with it. I only record like, one chorus, maybe at /most/ a minute of the song (but even then I feel cheeky), and I do not do it for every song, like maybe 3/4 out of the set list, just my favourites or the most popular ones. I dont want to be standing there recording the whole song anyway, I have moshing and jumping and ugly scream singing to be done that can't be done when I'm recording.
But I do wonder if even recording this much makes me a horrible hypocrite and an asshole full stop. Like I said, those people who stand there recording the whole concert start to finish literally make me want to tear my eyes out (i've stood behind people like this before and spent the whole concert trying to dodge around their phone screen). The last concert I went to, I was recording the opening section (along w/ many many others) and some guy behind me screamed at everyone to put down their phones and I had a bit of a come to jesus moment bc I'd literally done /exactly that/ a few concerts ago and it made me wonder. Honestly even if I am an asshole for this, I probably wont stop :') . But I at least will accept that I am a little bit of the very person I hate. So is life.
So AITA for recording small parts of concerts to watch back later on?

Soooo the song you guys have been waiting for!
I know it's terrible so I don't get why you guys have been so interested in it but thanks I guess I really hope it doesn't disappoint you all hahaHA 🤡
Anyways heres a quick key
Indented and italics = chorus, bold and italics = bridge, normal = verse!
The prompt I used was ✨sky✨ so I'm hoping that you can see the links
And it is absolutely *awful* (laughs nervously)

Anyways, I'll cut the waffle and get to it! Introducing my most awful song which I don't know what to name!
(under the cut so you only see it voluntarily)
The sky was blue when we arrived
i’ve never seen you more alive
The sunlight danced over your face
you said, “this is our place
this is our home”
above our heads clouds floated by
and we sat, watched them for a while
we braided each other's hair
and we found something rare
a world of our own
we’ll watch the sun rise, just us two
we read and write and live our truth
because we’ll be together
together
together with our -
outside our window the rain poured
but your company kept me warm
we read poetry and held hands
tales of love and other lands
of friendships and thrones
we’ll watch the sun rise, just us two
we read and write and live our truth
because we’ll be together
together
We’ll smile and laugh, and break and cry
but we know we will be alright
because we’ll be together
together
together with our skies
sunsets sunrise, im by your side
every time, everytime
dew drops rainfall, you are my all
every sky, every sky
sunsets sunrise, im by your side
every time, everytime
dew drops rainfall, you are my all
every sky, every sky
We’ll smile and laugh, and break and cry
but we know we will be alright
because we’ll be together
together
together with our skies
together with our skies
together with our skies
dew drops rainfall, you are my all
every sky, every sky

Song of the Day: March 15
“Over Yet" by Hayley Williams
#song of the day#very exciting to have one of my brothers tell me entirely unprompted that he's enjoying the current playlist#a very big win#I spent most of my work day today doing what I've been thinking of as 'evil rubber-ducking'#where the IT guys throw me the especially Difficult faculty members--the ones who can't be helped because they won't listen--#and I trick them into actually talking me through what they're doing so we can find the problem and fix it#(eternally amazed by people who request help and then refuse it. you called me bud. you submitted a service request ticket on purpose.#oh you can't do your job without connecting to the vpn? that's great we can't fix it until you tell us what's fucking stopping you)#mostly this 'tricking' takes the form of me being a sweet young butter-wouldn't-melt Southern girl in over my head with mean IT guys#bless them (derogatory) these folks who won't let IT even attempt to start working through the 'have you tried' scripts#because they know they're getting something wrong but are too angry-embarrassed to admit they don't know what#are still delighted to mansplain the idea of a remote connection to me#--that's not fair. I shouldn't mischaracterize them it's mostly not mansplaining.#the two today were yankee-splaining me. city-splaining maybe.#what would a hick like me (y'all is one person. all y'all or some'a y'all for multiple people) possibly know about enterprise networks--#anyway they were using the wrong login credentials and were so sure of themselves they'd never even tried the other set just to see#bless. their. hearts.#(IT owes me so many little favors like this now. the latest database tweak I asked for got done live while I described it to them)#anyway anyway! love the chorus on this song#'to get out of your head yes break a sweat / baby tell yourself it ain't over yet'#makes me move my head every time

I feel like we as a society sleep on the lyricism that exists within the JATP soundtrack.
Like "I feel your rhythm in my heart. You are my brightest burning star. I never knew a love so real. We're heaven on earth. Melody and words. When we're together we're in perfect harmony", "Consider me the pearly gates to your new favorite thrills", "The rain don't blind the rising souls, they got too much to see", " "If I could take us back, if I could just do that, and write in every empty space the words "I love you" in replace, then maybe time would not erase me.", " The words I most regret are the ones I never meant to leave unsaid", "Love me as I am. I'll hold your music here inside my hands", "When all the days felt black and white, those were the best shades of my life", "Wake up if it's all you do. Look out, look inside of you. It's not what you lost, it's what you'll gain, raising your voice to the rain", "Life is a risk but I will take it, close my eyes and jump", "And I use the pain, 'cause it's part of me and I'm ready to power through it", "Keep dreaming like we'll live forever, but live it like it's now or never"

it's sad how many reviews and stuff around tmbg seem to centre linnell as the sole dark and creepy writer of the band, never really crediting flansburgh too. do "hide away folk family," "dirt bike," "rabid child," "black ops," "cloisonné" mean nothing to them, smh.
#tmbg#this rigid dichotomy they tend to get forced into even tho linnell has written some happier songs and flansburgh plenty horrific ones#I'll be honest tho. I fully went into tmbw-interp-tab conspiracy when I first heard ''sleeping in the flowers'' lmao#I thought that song was about somebody getting murdered#the title seemed like a euphemism to me#it's actually. according to flansburgh. just about getting high in central park#and it's inspired by itchycoo park by the small faces which I knew and loved before and it's GREAT go listen to that. it's '60s psychedelia#so the lyrics are prob fantasising about spending time with the crush and essentially playfully talking sweet nothings together#bc they're stoned and in love#but honestly I thought ''you proclaim that you're an island. I proclaim that I'm one too''#''I declare that I am england. you declare that I have drowned''#sounded to me like someone trying to get away and be alone but the other person not getting the hint#esp bc the narrator introduces themself as not wanting to be ''known as the creep''#the part about getting a ride home with a drunk guy ''who showed me how to spin my head round and round''#sounded like the driver helping them get their story straight/take their mind off it#and the narrator feels they came across as ungrateful about their advice in their shocked state#plus the way the instrumental between the verses and chorus changes from fuzzy and gritty to lighthearted brass#like it's catching you off-guard#but it's not about any of that it's about being high#anyway none of that is an example of a genuinely creepy flansburgh song but

everyone keeps making fun of taylor for the 1830s line but given that she literally goes on to say she knows she is being stupid what they should be making fun of her (an american) for is associating the 1830s with palaces. like put in the work guys. if something’s worth doing it’s worth doing right

It’s fall when Ava comes back. 
Just in time for pumpkin spice season, Ava says with a grin, bounding up to every cafe and restaurant with any sort of pumpkin flavor listed in their window. The late morning sun slants golden across the hoodie - stolen from Beatrice’s closet - barely hanging onto her shoulders, wild hair escaping the confines of her tilting baseball hat, which she catches just before it hits the ground. She laughs, bright and free and it’s hard to believe she had ever been gone. 
Beatrice just smiles, follows at a more sedate pace. Content to watch Ava flit and flirt and stir up a frenzy, only to disappear as quickly as she came. It leaves people breathless in her wake and Beatrice can’t help but give them an empathetic smile. 
Because she knows. She knows all too well how it feels to have Ava in your life so suddenly, so fully, so brilliant, so bright, and then - 
Beatrice hears a yelp, a fumble from across the store. Then, “I’m okay! Everything’s okay. It’s uh, it’s a small world after all, huh?”
She finds Ava with an antique globe in her hands and a shopkeeper next to her with that classic mix of charmed consternation that people often have in the presence of one Ava Silva. It’s an expression Beatrice sees often in others, feels often in her own self. 
Ava spots her and sets the globe haphazardly onto a shelf - the shopkeeper all but dives to catch it before it falls - rambling excitedly about Halloween decorations and costumes and candy. She slots her palm into the crook of Beatrice’s arm, tugging her in yet another direction. 
Come with me, Ava says with her hands, her smile, her eyes, her face as they spend their days going from place to place, alive and unburdened.
Come with me, Ava says with her mouth on Beatrice’s neck and her fingers between her legs, shuddering and gasping into lips and skin - 
Come with me, Ava says, leading the way and Beatrice does what she does best, what she’s been trained to do, what she’s learned to allow herself and what she’s chosen for herself to do: follow, with faith, with her whole heart.  
Yes, Beatrice says in response, answering Ava’s reaching hand, her offer to dance, with her own vow to live: I will come with you; I can go with you, now.

Okay, if I had to simplify my gender into one song, it would absolutely have to be Libiamo ne' lieti calici. Like, I am going absolute feral right now. Do you see this vision of mine.

Song of the Day: February 17
“DYWTYLM” by Sleep Token
#song of the day#Sleep Token really saving my sanity as we navigate this dark and uncertain time without an upgraded sibling singalong playlist#had to go out into the snow on under two hours' sleep to get groceries#(the farmers' market gave me kefir cheese so any amount of suffering would've been worthwhile but I couldn't know that at the time)#and getting into Nick's car knowing there was music I could request that he could play loud as he wanted and I wouldn't want to cry#I mean blessing isn't even a strong enough term. baking a cake for the Sleep Token guy (his name is Vessel) as we speak#anyway this song sounds incredible in the original and then so odd sung acapella. like singing a bass line just a couple beats repeating#polar opposite of my lady indie covers. a song rendered fully unrecognizable when I wander the house mumbling it to myself#the verses do alright I suppose but the chorus is out of the question. the lyrics are so strong too real gut-punch lines#'and my reflection just won't smile back at me like I know it should / and I would turn into a stranger in an instant if I could#and there is something eating me alive I don't know what it is / maybe not that you conceal your feelings they just don't exist'#the whole song is like that it is so so so good. every new Sleep Token song I hear I'm like oh of course yes I see why these are fic titles#(Sleep Token catching up to Fall Out Boy and Hozier in terms of lines I've seen as fic titles. I mean we are really getting up there#and I am definitely not immune. if/when I put up those fanmixes y'all are gonna be seeing some Sleep Token let me tell you)#edit: it stands for 'Do You Wish That You Loved Me' I just realized I never said#didn't even pick lyrics that include it which is nuts when you realize that every verse does twice. whoops
