From “I’m still on that tightrope, I’m still trying everything to keep you laughing at me” in mirrorball to “my spine split from carrying us up the hill… I stopped trying to make him laugh” in So Long, London I can’t take this
If I can't have what these 2 have can I at least have a fraction of their intelligence 🥺
- me, a struggling college student, often wondering how the hell Rachel gets 4.0 GPA with her multiple lives. What a time management master.
But then again of course, cuz she's Rachel Amber.
I NEED A proper "Rachel studying hard" art to motivate myself 😭 so far I only have one where she's sleeping on her desk 😅
Intelligence aside it's really her effort and diligence that I admire. Probably only Chloe and Rach's "parents" saw how much effort she put in to live up to that "gifted child" image. An efficient learner!
Finally, a song that describes someone whom "every time their heart breaks it entertains us" -- by Taylor Swift
"I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try."
"I'll show you every version of myself tonight."
Just screams Rachel Amber to me.
One day, there'll be a Rachel Amber (vulnerable version) inspired song list coming your way. Just you wait.
Secret Santaswiftie for @mirroball
★ FOR ALLIE FROM @SPEAKNOWTV 💜
I know these past few weeks have been tough for you and in these times I find it nice to have some kind of little reminder to steady you. I hope these lockscreens I have created with your favourite songs and favourite colours in mind can give you a little reminder of the good moments and at the least make you smile <3
aaaah just got my first tattoos ever! I’m so in love
if you can’t tell I love Taylor Swift so much and her songs mean a lot to me but mirrorball and august just hit! folklore album will forever cherish and own my heart that album was made FOR ME !!!!!
I don't understand why people, mainly Taylor, pretend not to see that Augustine knew about Betty.
I mean, how could she sing "cause it was never mine" if she didn't know that James was hanging out with another girlS in plural?????
It's obvious for me that she knew about Betty. Otherwise, Inez wouldn't have told Betty about what James was doing.
And let's be honest, here EVERYONE knows that James and Betty weren't "serious" mainly because in cardigan Betty says that he was eyeing other girls, that's why she probably talks about sensual politics and the hand under her sweater. It means that James wanted physical contact, and she probably didn't give him what he wanted, so he tried to find it somewhere else.
Mirrorball, of course, is about Betty "You'll find me on my tallest tiptoes
Spinning in my highest heels, love
Shining just for you"
High heels are cited in cardigan, so it makes me think that Betty is talking about the prom night.
Mirrorball also tells us that she breaks in a million pieces, that is she's a cardigan, because when she breaks she can transform herself in whatever she needs to fit in be loved.
She also says that she can show James every version of himself, but you can only show someone all his versions knowing him very well.
May I offer music quotes that remind me of Laerryn and Quay, some of which are in the playlist I made. Sorry, this is so long but I just had to include a bunch that been plaguing me.
If I was born as a blackthorn tree
I'd wanna be felled by you
Held by you
Fuel the pyre of your enemies
But we're the greatest
They'll hang us in the Louvre
Down the back, but who cares—still the Louvre
I was told to put my job in front of you,
But it won't hold me like you do
But I do it for the love,
Waiting on the gold rush
Boy, you're a sight to see, kinda somethin' like me
I love the light in your eyes and the dark in your heart
You love our permanent chase and the bite of our bark
We know we're classic together like Egyptian gold
We love us
I'm only cryptic and Machiavellian 'cause I care
We are surrounded by all of these lies
And people that talk too much
You got the kind of look in your eyes
As if no one knows anything but us
One of these days, maybe your magic won't affect me (hmm)
And your kiss won't make me weak
But no one in this world knows me the way you know me
So you'll probably always have a spell on me
Forget the ache of yesterday
And why don't we go dancing in the rain
I know you think that I should change
But nothing in the world could sway my way
And when I'm standing in this mirror after all these years
What I'm viewing is a little different from what your eyes show you
I guess I didn't see myself before you
Moving forward
I know they said the end is near
But I'm still on my tallest tiptoes
Spinning in my highest heels, love
Shining just for you
Hey baby, we don't mind all the watching, hi
'Cause if they study close, real close, they might learn something
She ain't nothing but a little doozy when she does it
She's so fly (she's so fly) tonight
In the mornin', you'll be dancin' with all the heartache
And the treason, the fantasies of leavin'
But we know that, when it's over
In the mornin', you'll be dancin' with us
I won't tell you I'm lonely
'Cause it may be selfish
I won't ask you to hold me
'Cause that won't mend what's helpless
And when you think of me am I the best you've ever had?
Share one more drink with me, smile even though you're sad
I'm walking the long road, watching the sky fall
The lace in your dress tingles my neck, how do I live?
Aren't you somethin' to admire?
'Cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
And I can't help but notice
You reflect in this heart of mine
