Tagged by @mariesmh! Thanks, hunny 💕 I've never done this before haha but I have so many music opinions so this is v perfecto

I'm tagging @firefox-official @idecentlydrawnkishiberohan @heyhauntsman @yofukit @im-big-dumb @troiloka @belaroseoli @syliic . Feel free to not do this or whateva

1: A song you like with a color in the title

Pink in the Night by (the one and only) mitski

2: A song you like with a number in the title

99 Luftballoons (I forgot the band name I'm sorry)

3: A song that reminds you of summertime

ohhh I have. So, so many. I listen to 80's Japanese city pop like a plant follows the sun...Remember Summer Days by ??? and Magic Ways by Tatsuro Yamashita are definitely some that give big summer energy

Also, Bullfighter Jacket by Miniature Tigers holds nostalgic summer vibes for me. Reminds me of when my sister and I would sing it on long car rides when I was 9

4: A song that reminds you of someone you'd like to regret

Oh boy...there was this girl I had a silly yet obsessive crush on who, with hindsight, was racist/colorist. She has said that she'd rather die than have dark skin (while next to my dark skinned friend 🙃), said that she thinks all the black people at are school are bad people, and has fetishized Asians. I am so sorry to say she was a BTS fan...it just makes it...so much worse. "Fake Love" hellllla reminds me of her and I hate it bc my sister listens to BTS spiritually...god what a ride

5: A song that needs to be played out loud

Take on Me by A-ha

It needs to be SCREAMED

6: A song that makes you want to dance

Rasputin by Boney M, Gimme Gimme Gimme by ABBA, Like a Record by Dead or Alive, DARE by Gorillaz and Swing by VST and Company make me freaking g r o o v e

7: A song that makes you happy

Doctor by Jack Stauber, Rebel Rebel by David Bowie, and Don't Stop Me Now by Queen are guaranteed dopamine machines

8: A song you never get tired of listening to

Dreams by Fleetwood Mac n cheese, Dress Down by Kaoru Akimoto, Killing Me Softly by the Fugees, I'd Like to Walk Around in your Mind Someday by Vashti Bunyan, and After the Storm by Kali Uchis are The Songs that I have listened to about 48 times in a row before and could listen to 100000 times more because their just so creative and wonderful and perfect and AaaAAAAH I love these songs

9: A song you'd love to be played at your wedding

Two Slow Dancers by mitski would be SO perfect

Lord, this question just reminded me of how my sister used to do photography at weddings and at every single one she went to, they'd always play that one Ed Sheeran song that's just like "baBY weE foun luve rite wheERE wE arre" ajajakamakcjdn gotdam... cishet white folks with names like Jevylynn and Aydynn really be like that, huh?

10: A song that's covered by another artist

Dear Prudence by Siouxsie and the Banshees is so lovely

11: A song you would sing as a duet in karaoke

SUMMER NIGHTS FROM THE MOVIE/PLAY GREASE

It's so fun to sing and mess up on

12: A song that makes you Think About Life

Some Things Just Stick In Your Mind by Vashti Bunyan and the entire Spirited Away soundtrack. Despite being beautiful and very positive songs, it always makes me feel...so much smaller than I am, so much more fragile, ungrateful for the life I take for granted, so...missing out on an adventure right in front of me ya know?

Another song that has a different feel to that which makes me v contemplative is Life on Mars by David Bowie. It's so melancholy and it's what it feels like at the edge of the night after several mental breakdowns, but still having the problem that the mental breakdowns caused and you can't do anything about it, which I sadly relate to

13: A song with a person's name in the title

Dirty Diana by Micheal Jackson

14: A song you think everyone should listen to

Innuendo by Queen

15: A song by a band you wish was still together

And She Was by Talking Heads

16: A song by an artist who is no longer living

I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston

17: A song that makes you want to fall in love

I Want to Dance with Somebody by Donna Summer and Somebody to Love by Queen

18: A song that breaks your heart

Purple Rain by Prince and Love of my Life by Queen

Not even just the lyrics, but the slow and powerful tone of these songs makes them so disheartening, like you just lost someone your whole life revolved around and your reminiscing the memories you had together and getting over how there will never be more no matter how much you want to see them smile again or how much you want them to make you smile again, although they hurt you

AAAAAAH my heart ouch ow oh agh my soul ugh

19: A song you remember from your childhood

Sweet Dreams (are made of this) by eurythmics

20: A song that reminds you of yourself

When I am depressi, I'm Washing machine heart by mitski, but when I'm feeling Gucci I'm Dancing Queen by abba
