When you get this, you have to put 5 songs you actually listen to, publish. Then, send this ask to 10 of your favourite followers <3
Aw, thank you!! I feel honoured 🥰
I know that wasn't the task but I gave myself a theme to follow. See if you can guess it 😊 (just kidding, it is super obvious) I might not have listened to all of those songs in the last week but I have all of them downloaded onto my phone. Which is reserved for songs I listen to at least semi-regularly.
Friend - Bukahara
Hug all your friends - cavetown
Liebe Freunde - Dota
Gute Nacht, Freunde - Reinhard Mey
Friends 'til the end - Shipwrecked, Dylan Glatthorn
Also, I can't shut up, so you're getting explanations on why I love those songs under the cut :)
Friend - Bukahara
This song is kinda what decided the theme because I just had to pick it. It is beautiful and it sounds so much like dw to me. Especially thoschei but actually all the Doctor's friendships. I keep listening to it and thinking 'this is them. it's so them'.
You said look up even when the nights are long
'cause you will never be alone my friend
You will always see my light shining on
'cause I, I will soon be home again
Oh and no one knows what really happened on that day
Well some people say the saw him up there flying away
You know, when 9 or 10 are convinced their friend is gone together with Gallifrey? Looking at the stars and missing them, remembering the days at the Academy? Tracing a scar on their knee they got as a child and that has stayed with them through the regenerations? This is the soundtrack for that.
(@marvellouspinecone so... about not writing/planning fics based on songs. Apparently, I do that after all. I'm a liar. Or maybe talking to you about it has jump-started it. Idk)
2. Hug all your friends - Cavetown
I haven't listened to this one in a while but it is the song that really got me into cavetown, I think. It is just ADORABLE and whenever I miss my friends I put it on (might have been one of my most played songs 2020). There is also a wonderful music video for this on yt in which Robbie is shown hugging a bunch of friends. But tumblr won't let me put it here😑
And I don’t care about my sleeping routine
I fucked it up as it is but we got so much time to kill
As the night rocks me to sleep
Life's too short to worry about things that we got wrong
So hug all your friends and let them know you're not letting go
No I won't let go
3. Liebe Freunde (Dear Friends) - Dota
This video seems to not exist either, so here is the spotify link in case that works better:
It's in German anyway, but I love it so so much because it reminds me of my German friends. You can translate it perfectly to our situation, just that usually I am the one staying over and being asked again and again to just stay a while longer, you can take the next train, then, when the last train is gone: you can take the bus and then you can take the first train in the morning.
I need my sleep and I do have enough of social interaction rather quickly but I just feel so loved whenever they plead that I stay a bit longer.
Das Rauschen des Festes ist leiser geworden,
in der Küche gibt es nur noch Schnaps und Chips.
Und ich find ́s schön, so schön, so schön,
dass es euch egal ist, dass die letzte Bahn grad fährt.
Ich find ́s schön, so schön, dass ihr da seid. Ich fühle mich geehrt.
(The sounds of the party have died down, there is only schnapps and crips left in the kitchen. And I find it beautiful/great/wonderful/lovely, so lovely, so lovely, that you don't care that the last train is leaving right now. I find it lovely, so lovely that you are here. I feel honoured.)
Also, the ending is my favourite for obvious reasons:
Schön, dass ihr da wart. Gute Nacht.
Ach, ihr fahrt Fahrrad.
Vielleicht solltet ihr schieben.
(Lovely that you were here. Good night. Ah, you're taking your bicycle. Maybe you should walk and push it along.)
🚲
4. Gute Nacht, Freunde (Good night, friends) - Reinhard Mey
Reinhard Mey was the favourite artist of my great-grandmother (who I was lucky enough to know as a child). So this song is already dear to me because of that. It also has a similar feeling to the Dota song, about not wanting to leave a friend's place at night.
I especially love that he changed the lyrics 'everything that is left to tell you takes the time of one cigarette' to 'NO cigarette' in the video above. I assume it is because of the moderator. They're friends and the moderator is very anti-smoking. Idk I just find it touching and fitting that he presumably changed his song about friendship for his friend.
Für die Freiheit, die als steter Gast bei euch wohnt
Habt Dank, dass ihr nie fragt, was es bringt, ob es lohnt
Vielleicht liegt es daran, dass man von draußen meint
Dass in euren Fenstern das Licht wärmer scheint
(Thank you for the freedom who lives at your place as a constant guest. Thank you for never asking what it is worth, if it is worth it at all. Maybe that is why one thinks, when standing outside, that in your windows the light is shining more warmly)
5. Friends 'til the end - Shipwrecked Comedy, Dylan Glatthorn
Okay, this one is mostly hilarious. But it is my favourite Shipwrecked video and I have listened to the song often enough to know it by heart. Also, it's about telling your bestie she's too good for her man because he is
A) too boring
or
B) a bloody vampire
and I find that important.
- Dearest Mina, I know just how you feel
When it comes to Jonathan I don't see the appeal
Because my man is where it's at
Last night he turned into a bat
We danced in the moonlight
He's colder than frostbite
- Wait - did you just say he turned into a bat?
- Yes, he gives a mean backrub
He's pale as a bathtub
-Bathtub... uh, so I guess we're just moving on from that?!
