Even though this world is fractured, I will protect it. Because you are here.

i've been listening to a lot of music lately, and i have some random thoughts!
Yena's Smartphone -- I didn't love how quiet Yena's vocals sounded in the chorus of "Smartphone" at first listen: it prevented the song from hitting as hard as it could have for me, but I adjusted to it very quickly and haven't stopped humming the chorus since. I really like how the song leans so heavily into noisy pop-rock (probably because of the popularity of "Lxxk 2 U" earlier this year!). I've also been listening to "Lemon-Aid" from the album, and it's exactly what I wanted but didn't quite get from "Loveade" by VIVIZ, which has me predicting that "Lemon-Aid" will become a favorite of the summer!
Lizzo's Special -- I've listened to about 3/4 of the album, which I was really looking forward to because I thought "About Damn Time" was super fun, and so far I've added "2 Be Loved" to my playlists because WOW that chorus does something to me! I think Lizzo doing retro was a fantastic idea--her vocals sound especially strong over big 80's pop arrangements, especially those "Out of Touch"-sounding synths in "I Love You Bitch". Unfortunately, this album also reminded me that I don't really enjoy her voice when she raps (which is strange given that I tend to enjoy rappers who are considered obnoxious) so I'm not sure how many songs here will have staying power for me.
MUNA's MUNA -- I put off listening to this album for over a month, despite how much I've liked their past work, but once I finally checked it out, I made up for lost time with obsessive replaying of "Silk Chiffon". The album feels conceptually the same as Saves the World, their last album, half big emo synth and half soft sad guitar, but I don't mind that because, well, the formula is awesome, and the songs on MUNA weigh just as heavily on me as their predecessors. No, that isn't normally what I want from music, but to me it's really not a MUNA track if I don't gasp when the chorus hits and mumble the verses in a state of deep melancholy for days afterward! If you're looking for songs with especially vicious intensity, I would recommend checking out "No Idea" and "Runner's High" first :)
Hyuna's Nabillera -- I feel like Hyuna is the only artist who took everyone's complaints about noise music to heart, and I'm so sad about it. Like NO HYUNA ITS OKAY WE WEREN'T TALKING ABOUT YOU YOUR LOUD OBNOXIOUS MUSIC HAS ALWAYS BEEN FUN ITS OKAYYYYY. But I think the backing track to "Nabillera" is really interesting, despite how much softer it is than my favorite songs of hers, so I bet this one, and maybe even some of the album tracks, will start to grow on me!
Woo!ah!'s Joy -- I have never become this attached to an entire woo!ah! release, despite my intense love for some of their other songs, and I can't really explain why this specific one works for me. Maybe I'm missing Twice and (*sobs*) Gfriend this summer, and woo!ah!'s saccharine vocals fill the hole they've left in my heart while I anxiously await Twice's comeback later this month. There's also some absolutely stunning instrumentation in this album, especially in "Go Away" (that simulated choral effect paired with the beat drop is super cool!), so I'm hopeful about how these tracks will age!
Majiko's "Kosaten" -- Very meh :( I enjoy listening to it well enough, but I forget pretty much everything about it once it ends. I'll just keep listening to "Fantasy"!
And, finally, exciting news! Loona's "Pose" has fought its way from the lowest category in my song-ranking system to the second-highest! Turns out I really, really like it!

🎬 + barbie
thanks for the ask nat!
3.5/5 ★ it was a fun film, but not something that i've gone back to or thought about honestly. it's definitely greta's weakest work to me but i'm impressed with how much creative control her and noah were able to maintain. while it looks great, i don't think the commentary and themes about womanhood and patriarchy were particularly cohesive.
send me a 🎬 + a film and i’ll rate it.

Songs of 2022, 2
[my considerations in choosing these songs!]
Princess by Majiko (November 16, 2022)
Majiko needs to stop doing this. Two years in a row, now, she's swept in at the last minute and made me question my formerly secure Song of the Year choice. She didn't win either battle, but both songs are still absolute classics (2021's "Fantasy" is the other!). So here's "Princess," in second place but practically interchangeable with my top choice.
Sonically, "Princess" understands what's good about the weirdest f(x) songs. It builds tension with the best of them (read: "Nu ABO"), and Majiko's emotive vocals play against the dry, hissing buzz that defines the song's most intense sections in the same way the clear, sweet vocals of the f(x) members elevate their most unsettlingly robotic instrumentals. To be clear, Majiko sounds decidedly strange on this track, almost grating for most of it (especially the chorus), and I don't think it will be for everyone. But the same tidal wave of feeling hits me every time she screams those high notes--I love her performance here, for all its eccentricities.
Lyrically, "Princess" meets me right where I, unfortunately, found myself for most of 2022. I'm good at hiding it, but I'm stubborn and unreasonable, especially when it comes to romance. I want to be saved, and since I decided a few years ago that love will save me (after academics, my former savior, failed me one too many times), I've become someone I hate when infatuated, a wreck by the phone waiting to be loved with the same desperation I love my obsessions with. And this song gets that. The speaker knows her relationship is over (if it ever even started), and she's angry as hell about it. But she still hopes love is a game she can win, that she can suppress her anger at the lover and earn her happy ending with begging or with tears or with fawning--with anything. Anything. I want to "win" love, too, and, when it came out, I took in the sharp edges of "Princess" and saw in them the way my own love is bitter-tasting and manipulative because I'll do anything to win, even when the prize is someone I've come to dislike or even hate. Love is infinite; it's okay if it's broken. I want my happy ending and I want it now, and I'll ruin myself for it because I'm sure, somewhere deep inside me, that I'll be saved once I earn that magical love, that it won't matter how broken I became in the process once that cure-all is in my hands.
As melancholy and reflective as this song sometimes inspires me to be, "Princess" mostly just makes me feel so, so powerful. When that gritty beat kicks in, I feel like Majiko in the music video, a queen of hell, not proud of my feelings but not unbearably ashamed of them, either. I hope not to spend my life as the speaker in "Princess," but for now the song meets me where I'm at, where I've been stuck for years and, quite possibly, will be stuck for a while longer. I start to feel absolutely grand when listening, too, like I can be a princess all on my own, like maybe being saved is less important than putting on my pretty leggings and my favorite hat and half-strolling half-strutting to the store, looking and feeling glorious as "Princess" soundtracks my step. And I always need something from the store, it seems, so this fantasy never feels too far off.
