There's love there,
There's dreams fierce,
There's us and what we let inside,
It's started,
The cascading,
You're tired and it's time.
//
Another empty picture for this collage of mine,
Want to pull it back
And pretend that it's dark,
That we made it here unharmed,
I'm your friend, not your guard.

You're the greatest light, the greatest shade
It means that I can be happy for you, happy for you

If I could marry the guitar breakdown in the bridge of "Liana" by The Joy Formidable, I would.

Okay so I'm gonna type, and this won't make much sense. It's 2:00 AM and I'm pretty drunk. But I'll start by saying I have not played Hi-Fi Rush. It looks like something I'd love, but I don't have anything that can play it. The song "Whirring" by The Joy Formidable features in that game and I'm sobbing because that song means the world to me. Like fr. I had no idea it was in that game and seeing so many people flock to it and talk about it in the comments made me cry. This post makes no sense but I needed to say it somewhere. Idk. Idk..

I thoroughly enjoyed The Joy Formidable last weekend at Riot Fest. As a tribute to their excellent performance, I’m kicking off the weekend with their song, Whirring.

Cos now I see this place was here all along
The more it changed shape
You pull it close
Please pull me closer
Don't fear the move out of the past
Let time take your hand and guide you
It's time to move
Into the Blue once again

@shmreduplication tagged me to post 5 songs I've been listening to, so here goes.
I've been making a conscious effort to listen to more music in the last year because a) I really like it and b) my headphones are so bad I can't listen to podcasts if there is ambient noise.
I paid for youtube premium last summer and it's good for avoiding ads in late night ASMR videos and also for when I get hit with a 7 minute ad while I'm driving and I can't skip it because...I'm driving!
The discovery option can be quite good, IF I go a little bit left field because otherwise it gives me the same songs again and again. For some reason, Metric
I put Apathy - It takes a seven nation army to hold us back into youtube music and before long, I had Jimmy Recard, which as far as I can tell charted at 97 in Australia over a decade ago However, it's relentlessly fun, and works as a very quick musical pick me up for when I'm walking out of work.
JAY
ARR
JIMMY RECARD!
And now the algorithm serves me lots of Aussie Hip hop.
You'll know The Beths from Barack Obama's Summer 2023 playlist. But this isn't that song. It isn't even the smash that they named their last album after. It's A Passing Rain, and it kicks it into high gear
I discovered The Joy Formidable (incredible band name. They belong in a 90s X-Men comic) last year, and was already a decade late to Whirring. Whirring is a towering block rocker that sort of outstays its welcome with a 2 minute outro. But...what if it was a welsh langage acoustic version? Then, it would be Chwyrlio, which strays perilously close to setting up for I'm feeling strangely unsatisfied, which is the sound of hitting a continental plate with a synthesizer. Every time I hear THAT, I get goose bumps.
Because I heard it in a shopping centre, I gave Beautiful Things a go, and it's a lot of country tinged shite wrapped around a solid gold core of PLEASE. DON'T TAKE. THESE BEAUTIFUL THINGS THAT I'VE GOT. I don't care about your insecurities. I am here for you shouting the chorus
and because it was one of the last songs I liked, and the mention of trepannation gives it bonus points, please enjoy Nervous System by Candi Carpenter
Summary:
Drapht - Jimmy Recard
The Beths - A Passing Rain
The Joy Formidable - Chwyrlio
Benson Boone - Beautiful Things
Candi Carpenter - Nervous System
And now I tag @itsbiscuittime, @deadshiftwork, @ronchronchronch, @expertpedestrian, @felrija,
