#... but he likes instruments better

[r-aindr0p]

Probably how the song cover yuu au would start, it branches from this headcanon post nothing too interesting as he mostly does it while alone but I figured I'll draw a little introduction in case I do random doodles of this little au.

Basically, he tries and sings >regrets it >posts the song >regrets it again >it gets shared >oh no >oh please no no no >ah fuck it, might as well film a clip for a cover at some point >not showing his real self tho

He labeled the songs as lost media as an excuse but he's not wrong and not right either, somehow... Since the songs are not from twisted wonderland they were never lost, but rather never existed but he can't tell this so yeah.

#twisted wonderland #twst yuu #don't ask where the mic went when the keyboard spawned idk it's magic #first cover is decent he'll get better gradually though I don't think his vocal range is crazy he's just a lil guy after all #so he probably adapts some instrumentals according to his range 'cause yeah vocaloid songs go so high sometimes pls miku let us keep up w/ #no idea what song he makes covers of probably weeb stuff but with a slight accent #through the fire and flames is out of the question but maybe lilia could nail it death metal style #dude would probably cry if asked to sing in public so he is probably not suspected for now #i cringe at my own au but hey cringe is in the eye of the beholder just like art so it varies from person to person

Daniel (stopwatch) is a band kid change my mind

#he needs to hold his breath to use his powers #how better to practice than playing an instrument #like the tuba for example #except he doesn’t play tuba he plays trombone #because I play trombone #and I’m projecting on him so hard #starkid #team starkid #nerdy prudes must die #npmd #tgwdlm #the guy who didn't like musicals #starkid black friday #hatchetfield #nightmare time

I often think about Bucky using ballet as part of his recovery process / art therapy but this week I have specifically been thinking about Bucky and music.

Bucky recovering his voice through singing, and especially through playing musical instruments (for days when his voice won't come), because it would also be a great way for him to get used to seeing his prosthetic as creative and beautiful rather than destructive

#bucky and music #bucky barnes #ficbunny #stuckbunny #question is... if bucky could play any musical instruments before serum and if so which ones? #and does serum mean he's even better at playing it now?? 🤔 #idk sth about bucky being in an amateur band and that's part of his therapy #like imagine bucky singing and learning guitar #also I feel like hawkguy is one of nature's natural drummers so them being disabled-band-bros #bucky and dance #bucky and song #amateur sexyrockband frontman veteran bucky is the vibe #yet each man queues the thing he loves #bucky recovering

#simblr #ts4 legacy #valentine gen 4 #fun fact for context on why i care so much abt him finally choosing to play the piano on his own #but it's gonna get Long so strap in #basically. the guitar he used to have had been with him since he was like...... my god. probably about 15 #he bought it at a yard sale for pennies from an older woman #it belonged to her late son originally and it wasn't even . supposed to be a part of the sale in the first place. she just took a liking to #devin and figured that really it's better in the hands of someone who would use it than for it to collect dust in her garage forever #and he couldn't really practice at home. his parents... are not exactly the kindest people you've ever seen #he was too afraid of them destroying or throwing it away so he'd sneak off to god knows where and learn how to play it from old #youtube videos on his busted up phone #it quickly became Everything to him. his most prized possession. and it wasn't a shitty guitar either. the son was a professional musician #that's how ellie and devin met in the first place. he was playing at the market she used to sneak out to in the evenings to #and she instantly knew . this boy is going places and really they might as well go together #enough backstory of the backstory. long story short: he was struggling to make rent eventually and was out of vinyls to pawn off #so he had no choice left. it was either that or he'd get kicked out along with his sister. who was still struggling a lot w/ addiction #so he sold it. and it broke him. he's literally just not been the same since losing it #his sister stole him a guitar from a music shop she'd go to sometimes but it just wasn't the same and he had not played an instrument since #until now anyway #still not a guitar. but maybe someday #or he can find his old one and buy it again......... #lmfao if you made it here congrats. you win nothing bc im broke but i do respect you

gale is ambition, so he has both crippling self doubt and debilitating pride in his work.

gale is ambition, so if a character tries to undermine him by one-upping him, he'll think he's not nothing left. more else can the orb destroy that it hasn't already?

gale is ambition, so if a character tries to undermine him by one-upping him, he'll vehemently deny that. he's the wizard of waterdeep. he was mystra's chosen. he was her lover. who could be any better than that?

gale is ambition. it's his greatest flaw and his greatest asset.

#baldur's gate 3 #gale #gale dekarios #gale of waterdeep #gale bg3 #bg3 gale #spoilers #bg3 spoilers #rex rambles #obvious take is obvious but i've been ruminating on his reactions to sorcerer tav/tav generally undermining his experience and expertise #it's the same principle if anyone's every played an instrument and you see a 5 year old playing music better than you #who has had 20+ years of study and practice #it's humbling; it makes you feel like shit; it incenses you to try harder to get better #that's ambition. it's both the self doubt and the pride #of course gale is going to be petty back; you've literally just stepped on both the pride and self doubt at the same time #ruminating on the bg3 cast a little too late but it's fine lmao. i think he's neat and i like him a lot #i'm very obsessed with my own drow war cleric though. oh no he's hot ig lmao #i also have some thoughts about the soundtrack which ar very interesting to me

the shizu-chan song

just discovered the shizu-chan song by none other than johnny yong bosch. help me

id transcribe if i didnt have a final in 10 hours. maybe when i get back

oh nvm someone already wrote them out

this has similar energy as the bro duet song but like. in reverse bgskjdghjkgsd the no homo is for real

plus an animatic version and amv version because holy hell this is old

#i hear there's another shizuo song by johnny yong bosch according to the comments from 2017 but ill have to wait until yt recommends me it #anyway this makes me want to make a bro duet animatic for shizaya #which would be hilarious because. they're not bros #the ship dynamic of 'two guy best friends who maybe kiss sometimes' is very good but very not shizaya #so the spontaneous love confessions just come out of fucking nowhere during one of their fights #it would be really funny. trust #and probably better than the angst and self-denial festival i would make animating the actual shizu-chan song #i can already see the half-smiling-to-himself half-looks-like-he's-about-to-cry pining semi-regretful izaya face at the last shizu-chan #also. izaya guitar player headcanon hello #if someone can make an artist hobbyist izaya au i can make a guitar hobbyist izaya au #tbh izaya's more spontaneous and i feel like he wouldnt like all the hard work and practice time that goes into learning an instrument #like his main hobbies like parkour and switchblade throwing are stuff he gets to put into practice all the time and are more 'useful' #but instrument practice it's just him and his thoughts and callused hands for hours at a time #feel like he'd get frustrated pretty easily in that way #anyway wouldnt it be hot if izaya played the guitar LMFAOO fuck my characterization and let that man play fingerstyle #izaya playing piano is a somewhat popular headcanon anyway #god i have the worst habit of putting the entirety of my post into the tags. must be the incorrect lov joke bits spilling over #shizaya #shizuo heiwajima #izaya orihara #durarara #Youtube

so wait, since i was just reminded of the recorder thing donna talked about in the giggle, i now have a question for uk ppl: do yall learn the recorder in school? like in a music class? and like how much do yall have music class over there?

#this is a very interesting topic for me as a music educator from the us #ik a guy from ireland and he said there was no music class in schools for him and like not the same country BUT same island #(as northern ireland. not the others in the uk but still) #and its so wild and fascinating music education is a fascinating field and the way we do it in the us seems to be largely vvv unique to us #for clarification on how things are different so ppl have a better idea on how to answer my question lol: #in the us music class is standard in elementary schools and most places have general music until abt 5th/6th grade (year 6/7) #(general music = basics- music games learn recorder SOME notation-reading; often classroom instruments eg boomwhackers claves maracas #orff instruments if you're lucky/from a school district that isnt poor. also some world music) #its less standardized after that and not every school will have music after middle school but concert bands and choirs are both huge here #choirs start right on the heels of general music classes (sometimes start earlier + students elect to be in choir instead of general music) #bands USUALLY start in 4th grade (year 5) but sometimes can be later 5th/6th (year 6/7) or even 7th (year 8) (WAY less common) #depends on the state generally 4th is most common i think (choirs start at around the same time i think so probs 4th but choir isnt my area #orchestras are weird bc theyre a lot less common but can commonly start younger bc of one of the big approaches to music ed (suzuki method) #so like maybe 3rd grade (year 4) maybe 4th w/ band (year 5) but i have a friend who teaches at a private school #& said they have 1st/2nd graders (year 2/3)!! orchestra is also not my area though #also marching bands: vv common! usually just in hs (starting 9th grade / year 10) bc it supports the football team at games #but starting in 8th grade (year 9) is also common (sometimes even 7th / year 8) #theres two different styles: collegiate/show band and competition. former is very rah rah pop music etc; competition is more abstract #show bands are clearly designed to entertain whereas competition is designed to be more impressive and tell a story #so more impact moments abstract shapes/lines on the field and has movements - opener ballad closer (fast-slow-fast)

#like minds #murderous intent #like minds 2006 #nigel colbie #alex forbes #nigel colbie x alex forbes #having a normal one 🤡 idk just something small #i mean as much as i love clowning on the fact that 0.2 seconds after nigel took alex to the room #the most insane batshit stuff ever just came pouring from his mouth. 10/10 on the flirt game #it is kind of sad when you consider the idea that nigel sees himself as having no inherent worth outside of being something to be used #i mean he describes himself as the pike in the dynamic; the implement for killing #the weapon; the tool to be used #the idea that his only purpose is to serve as an instrument for someone else to achieve their destiny ? #and that night in the trainyard where he decides the best thing he can do is die so that jack can be born????? #are you listening greg ??? because this is exactly why it would've been better for the movie to affirm nigel as alex's maraclea #take notes greg okay #because if nigel positions himself in the role of maraclea?? then it all falls into place and now you've got this guy who thinks #that the best thing he can do. that the ONLY thing he can do. the reason he was put there in the first place #is to die and help alex become everything he was born to be #i stand by what i said on the earlier post that the night at the train yard was their consummation ..that the birth 9 months later was jack #beyond telling greg he can pry this idea from my cold hands #if he wants me to admit i'm wrong he can fight me for it in the car park of an aldi #sorry to anyone who followed me after the cannibalism web weave but this is a like minds blog first and foremost

okay okay so. what if. Popular Kids band au. who's with me.

[thekidsare-not-alright]

it's funny when people are trying to put pete down by insulting his bass skills or whatever and they're like "he didn't even write fob's most iconic bassline!!!" (which I'm assuming is dance dance ig idk) and it's like. buddy, pal, friendofmine. sibling dearest. I'll do you one better: I can't name a bassline he has written.

great news! it doesn't matter. I'm not suggesting he's a good bassist either, because I've never really seen anything that really supports that idea. but he's not in the band to be the world's best bass player. it's a means to an end. he's a fantastic lyricist, he's a good frontman, and the three other members of fob wouldn't want to be in the band without him. I think that's all you could ever truly ask of him. nice try though

#fall out boy #fob #pete wentz #people have this assumption that bands and musical acts come together solely to be the best at their respective instrument or something #and that the art they create must be the pinnacle of success in a time period #but when you know that this band exists because two guys wanted a break from the rest of the scene #and they've stayed together for 20+ years because /they're just having fun/ #it becomes clear that this isn't about being the epitome of greatness or whatever #BTW. DISCLAIMER. #this is ONLY about people trying to tear him down in General. #if you're comparing bassists and skill then like. oBvioUsLy him not being a great bassist matters #it just doesn't matter to me in the grand scheme of things #like. in any other capacity lol #like ik some mcr fans are annoyed that pete and mikey get compared a lot or something #and idk what mikey's skill level is at but I'm pretty sure he is better than pete just cause I've heard he's got that underdog story going #on w/ him not having played bass til mcr but coming soo far as a bassist #and I'm sure that that's frustrating so rip. but there's no reason to insist that pete is Super Skilled because dude that's not why hes her #it was never the point!! ashdhsgj #you don't need to be freakishly good at something to partake in it! #I also think it's weird how obsessed some people are with this #like. why do you wanna tear him down so badly huh? what's your deal #stfu #I didn't think I'd ever become a pete wentz defender tbh #but yknow. hdfshg

guys guyg uys the monkie kid soundtrack would have such a stranglehold of me if they actually released it i need the soundtrack out now

like the score is an essential part of so many of the most iconic parts of the show it adds so much emotion and gravity to the scenes

and i would honestly listen to it on its own on repeat is so good sounding with the melding of different genres of music

i know nothing about how music works but i’d really like to analyze all the the leitmotifs and sounds associated with all the characters and it would be a whole lot easier if they officially released it

anyways look at this please

tldr muisc goob pls giv eitt o us aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

#a show with a constantly fire soundtrack must be cherished ok #lego monkie kid #monkie kid #lmk #also characters have multiple leitmotifs judging by the piano cover so i might have to look for that too #but i did notice motifis for flowerfruit mountain mk/swk mei tang pigsy/sandy nezha red son azure macaque lbd and the villains in general #and more #also idk why pigsy and sandy share a leitmotif like i get mk and swk but why didnt sandy get something #ok after rewatching the show again i THINK i might have heard sandy's motif but it isnt played enough for me to be sure and he shared pigsys #like three times already so idk #update again i was just stupid sandy doesn't share with pigsy i was just put off by pitiful creature's combining both motifs #listen sandy's motif is really short and leads from pigsy's really well #also sound cues and associated instruments for a lot of things like the ink curse subodi's training grounds all the characters etc etc #the soundtrack alone could be put under a microscope so you can understand the insanity i feel #lmk advertizing on my blog i know like zero of my followers know wtf im talking about so that better change soon #alttalks

[huntingrays]

i sometimes think about maryse and robert finding out their son is dating magnus

like ignoring their reaction to him being gay, the fact that he’s dating magnus bane must annoy them so much

like… their first child dating this warlock who has probably been a pain in their side for years and also kicked their ass that one time they were in the circle

idk it amuses me to think about

#the mortal instruments #this specifically about the book bc haven’t gotten to that part in the show #but i know what happens bc YouTube compilation #so far show is better but book malec hold a special place in my heart #the shadowhunter chronicles #malec #alec lightwood #maryse lightwood #robert lightwood #magnus bane #reminds me of the markiplier audio where he’s like: #‘action man? who the hell is- oh my god no it’s john wick’ #imagine them being like: out of all the men or male downworlders he could choose… and he chooses magnus bane #it feels like karma to me #and ends up good for alec

#LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wild but okay me #what happens when I listen to pink martini and crochet #also I am overheated maybe I am delirious #but it’s cute bc Bakugo has to watch u sing to sero with ur little back and forths and he’s just playing his lil bass like >:| #I’d want to say pianist or something but I feel like that’s so overdone and contrived #I hate it #tbh it suits Kiri better but I wasn’t abt to give your man the French horn so deal with it (I know nothing about instruments) #but anyway one day sero is absent and u get to do the bit Bakugo and it’s SO SECCY #and he’s blushing spitting out the words at you #in your tight glittery dress blinking at him and he doesn’t even know how much you like him #and have just been friends with sero forever #LOL ANYWAY #I’m leaving to play the crossword and be anxious #shii posts #gen #cello bakugo au

[monty-glasses-roxy]

This might be the illness talking, but I want a 'Monty feeling like he's not as good as bonnie' where Roxy comforts him but it's just Roxy being 100% brutally fucking honest about it.

Monty: I'LL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS BONNIE!!

Roxy: HELL YEAH

Monty: Wh-

Roxy: Bonnie fucking SUCKED!!! It's about time we had a good bass player!!

Monty: Rox what- I thought he was ya friend????

Roxy: Yeah but that doesn't mean he could play for shit.

Monty: ?????????

Bonus if this happens in front of Freddy and Chica and they're a combination of offended on Bonnie's behalf, kinda in agreement that he did kinda suck at it, and just astounded by the sheer balls on this dog for saying it like she did with his bestie and fucking boyfriend in the room.

Roxy and Bonnie were besties but she won't lie for him even after deactivation lmao

#fnaf security breach #monty like 'YA JUST SAYIN THAT TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER' #but she doubles down like 'DID YOU NOT HEAR HIM PLAY EVER??? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT' #chica and freddy put him on a pedestal because he's gone but she did NOT #she loved him too but he was shit and he'd want her to say it loud and proud #she will NOT pretend he WASN'T bad at the bass lmao #Freddy contemplating murder in the background... #lmao anyway #can we spice up the 'never as good as bonnie' situations cause we could be so fucking funny about it #Bonnie's spirit in the wet floor bot nearby laughing his fucking ass off #he takes PRIDE in the fact he sucked at bass thank you #he much preferred the drums smh #but they were strictly a roxy instrument even though she only played them twice ever #nah this mouldy keytar she found in the basement is WAY better trust her she's an expert dhjdjd #roxanne wolf
