[undead-knick-knack]

So light a candle for me

Let it burn slowly

This is our chance

Give me just one last dance

And I'm coming home, I'm coming home

Under the pale moon

You look just like you used to

This is our chance

Give me just onе last dance

we'll burn it & we'll build it again - a mix tape I made a few days ago. Just for myself! Because I wanted to!

I spent as much time making the art/insert for the case as I did making the tape itself. First I printed a coloring page of Spider-Punk, then colored it, scanned it, resized it, and reprinted it. Then I collaged it along with the speech bubble and the ransom note-style letters.

The tape doesn't really have anything to do with Spider-Punk, it's just that I saw Across the Spider-Verse on Monday and am now obsessed with one Hobie Brown, aka Spider-Punk. I did throw on a few songs as a specific nod to him; namely "Lean Times for Heroes," "Save Your Generation," and "Young, Gifted, Black, in Leather." And I think he'd dig most of the music on here. Cuz it's really good.

I made a YouTube version in case anyone wants to give it a listen. (And the full track list is under the cut, below.)

Side A

The Prodigy - Firestarter

Idles - Car Crash

Mandy, Indiana - Drag [Crashed]

Gender Warfare - Commodity (GW Version)

Backxwash - Sound of Sinners (feat. Sad13 & Ada Rook)

Yves Tumor - God is a Circle

Fun Boy Three & Bananarama - It Ain’t What You Do

Catbite - Police Man (Kick Me in the Head)

Bedouin Soundclash - Walk Through Fire (feat. Aimee Interrupter) [this is the song from which the mix tape's title originates]

The Spitfires - Blaze of Glory

Redskins - Kick Over the Statues [thanks for turning me onto this band, @neoretrobibliomartini-x - they're fantastic!]

The Clash - Clampdown

Spiritual Cramp - Nah, That Ain’t It

Side B

LIFE - Big Moon Lake

Nape Neck - Kiss Me Boy, I’m Dying

Self Improvement - Crashing

Power of Dusk - Queer, Angry, and Violent

[wonderlandmind4]

The people and “fans” thinking this is Taylor’s worst album and wishing she’d “ditch jack” and write good songs again and “put effort into her music again”……like. What the fuck are you listening to?

Clearly not the same album. It honestly must be so so nice to never have felt depressed, broken in pieces from more hands than a romantic relationship but also feeling betrayed, backed into a corner of a promising shiny life only for that promise to chew you up and spit you out.

This woman was going through hell; feeling used in her love she gave for 6 years when all she wanted to be was loved. Being and feeling depressed from someone you thought and believed and viewed as your world only to betray trust and love. For the industry to accept her as a fresh innocent young artist, drag her through shredder, write horrific things and believe people like *Aimee* and cast her aside, always waiting for her toe out of line. And on and on.

This album is beautifully and tragically breathtaking. It’s real and raw and vulnerable. It’s mad woman descending from the gallows as they tried to hang her, its escapism to the delusions of simpler times when really even those times weren’t good and all it was cracked up to be. It’s about feeling lonely in your love, saying goodbye to things that were once a home and comfort. It’s about trying your best to put in a smile and perform in front of thousands of people even though you want to die. It’s about feel crazy at times in your own mind, mourning youth that was gone too quickly. It’s about closing this certain chapter of your life as you move on, stitching up those wounds. Being raw and sharing your most inner and sometimes dark and invasion thoughts to the world and yeah, maybe that makes me crazy or feel crazy but this story isn’t mine anymore it’s yours.

And that’s her manuscript, laying bare all her bones.

Also please look up and understand what metaphors and symbolism means.

Heather decides to listen to the songs on Eva's MP3 player after stealing it, expecting some loud death metal or some shit because Eva likes to get pumped up for a workout and then she's like "Why the fuck is it just Aimee Mann songs on here?"

TTPD: Ranking

My personal ranking of the songs on The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology.

I love all the songs on the album!! The sound is very 1989/Midnights for the first half and then quickly shifts into a very Folklore/Evermore vibe in the second half (thank you Aaron Dessner) which I absolutely adore. So all in all, I love the mix of the songs. Some of them I like more than others, however.

The songs, in chronological order, with what I personally rank them on a scale from 1-10 (and technically 13 since a few of them I had to give an even higher score than 10 lol)

Fortnight - 9 stars (Great opening for the album honestly)

The Tortured Poets Department - 8 stars

My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys - 7 stars

Down Bad - 10 stars (this is a fucking banger)

So Long, London - 8 stars

But Daddy I Love Him - 6 stars

Fresh Out The Slammer - 9 stars (my little lawyer heart loves this obvi)

Florida!!! - 9 stars (another banger)

Guilty as Sin? - 7 stars

Who's Afraid of Little Old Me? - 11 stars (this is absolutely fantastic. My fave songs are always when she sings about herself, also why I love Anti-Hero so much. This feels the same to me and I love everything about it)

I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) - 9 stars (the ending of this one is abosolutely perfect and exactly what I hoped for)

loml - 11 stars (absolutely beautiful piece)

I Can Do It With a Broken Heart - 11 stars (THIS IS AWESOME. We did theories before listening and it lives up exactly to what I had hoped which just felt very, very nice. The song is fun and beautiful and the beat is great and her outtro is just the best thing ever)

The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived - 9 stars (absolutely haunting)

The Alchemy - 9 stars (this was adorable)

Clara Bow - 7 stars

The Black Dog - 7 stars

imgonnagetyouback - 8 stars

The Albatross - 7 stars

Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus - 9 stars

How Did It End? - 8 stars

So High School - 10 stars (This made us all so giddy, I adore it)

I Hate It here - 12 stars (THIS IS PERFECTION. And too relatable honestly)

thanK you aIMee - 10 stars (This was so cunty and I adore it and I heavily relate to Andrea's feelings on Kim K, just saying)

I Look in People's Windows - 8 stars

The Prophecy - 11 stars (BEAUTIFUL. My Folklore heart was SOARING)

Cassandra - 8 stars

Peter - 9 stars

The Bolter - 13 stars (MY FAVORITE ON THE ALBUM. This hit WAY too close to home for me and I legit started sobbing and needed a moment after finishing. This hit me right in the gut. If you don't already know why then you can probably imagine LOL)

Robin - 6 stars

The Manuscript - 10 stars (this was gorgeous, and it definitely made me think about All Too Well and the manuscript for the music video and that made the lyrics even more profound to me)

[greenerteacups]

Merry Swiftmas! I saw your note at the end of the most recent chapter. What are you Tortured Poet Department thoughts and feelings?

Literally just got back from a listening party so this is all coming in VERY fresh and unprocessed but first reactions:

The unfortunate exigencies of Industry Shit have kind of hurt Swift creatively because (1) she's been taught she can have her cake and eat it too with the Grammy-winning 15-track sonically cohesive tone album if she just drops it separately as the first act of a 30-song behemoth deluxe edition/multiverse of bonus tracks, and (2) the Vault Tracks have taught her that fans actually do want to hear every single thing she writes, even if she (rightly) might have thought it wasn't release-quality 5-10 years ago. Long story short there is a good album in here but it needs to be TIGHTLY pruned out because a lot of these songs are either underwritten or underdeveloped or both. She should've focused her energy on improving a smaller set (i.e. cleaning out some of the clunker lines, tightening melodies, giving each song its own identity) and cutting like, more or less the last third of the tracks. That being said! I did like a lot of it.

I also think some people fail to understand Swift is a pop artist making pop music. When we say she's a good lyricist, we don't mean she's fucking Samuel Coleridge, it means she uses the medium of a pop song successfully to communicate a mood or an emotional experience. Pop is vernacular; it's supposed to evoke the kind of language you hear every day. Not surprisingly, I find her at her best when she's not trying to affect some kind of heightened poetic mood. Songs like "Would've, Could've, Should've" straddle this line pretty well for me, because it's not affected, it's just... intelligently thought-through. It's a single metaphor, taken from multiple angles, explained well, and set to a great melody. It's not trying to impress you, but it still does. Anyway.

Miscellaneous/specific thoughts:

"Guilty as Sin?" is my favorite, it's going to be one of my most played songs of the year, both for reasons of Oh Shit It Me and because I'm just straight up in love with the sound of this motherfucker. No analysis it makes the happy juices in the brain go

Other favorites: So Long London, Fresh Out The Slammer, The Bolter, Daddy I Love Him

"thank you aimee" is a reprise of "Mean" addressed semi-obviously to Kim K/the Collective Nation of Haters of Taylor Swift, which was a weak diss track when it was a teenager singing it and has not improved in the mouth of a 30-something artist

"But Daddy I Love Him" is conversely a very successful ironic reprise of "Love Story," and I'm fond of it because it reads like a love letter to the girls who grew up on that song

Interesting strains of Reputation on "Little Old Me," I feel like there was an earlier draft of this song that went harder on the Bad Blood/Don't Blame Me vibe, but she's still scarred from the critical reaction to reputation and hasn't fully gone there since. Which is why someday I will throttle the Pitchfork editor with my bare hands

Florida!!! feels like it needed some more production besides Jack Antonoff sitting on the synths with a jackhammer but I do like it. The bridge/second half sounds a lot like a Bleachers song (compliment)

"So High School" was sweet and I was surprised by how much I liked that and "The Alchemy," both of which are fun but ultimately simple and sentimental — which is GOOD to be clear I don't go looking for Proust in my pop music, and simplicity can be a virtue

However, I scream-laughed in a full room when I heard the line "you can ball and I know Aristotle," and I look forward to thinking about it once a day for the next forever. Insane. So good. Also, like — Taylor, have you read the Politics? You are legally obligated to tell us now if you have read the Politics.

Hello Eden (is it okay to call you that?)

Do you have any current favourite songs? What kind of music do you generally listen to?

And do you have any favourite books? What kind of books do you like to read?

If you are okay with sharing, no pressure.

Sending you love and strength ❤️

Ah!!! Thanks for this ask @sunnenfinster! What a lovely change of pace.

Eden is fine!!!!!

Ok, so I love music and books!

Of all broad genres of entertainment media, music is probably what I follow least closely. It’s not that I don’t like it; I just am always behind the curve in my tastes. I love listening to most confessional singer/songwriters. I love folk, rock, pop, and rap. I also get a lot of music I like from the background of media like TV, Movies, and podcasts. In general, I love confessional singer-songwriters from any genre.

Fave singers (and the albums I’d recommend from them: songs I’d recommend from that album [notes]):

Jem (Finally Woken: Come on Closer, Falling for You, Just a Ride). All songs on this album rock, to me.

Sheryl Crow (Sheryl Crow: A Change Would Do You Good, [about choosing love over anger and stopping gun violence], Redemption Day [about the Bosnian war], Maybe Angels [could be about aliens or being in a cult idk but it’s a good song about misplaced belief] I love every song on this album tbh. Wall-to-wall bangers.

Missy Elliot (Under Construction: Gossip Folks, Work it)

Suzanne Vega (99.9 F: 99.9 F, Blood Makes Noise, Rock in the Pocket, When Heroes Go Down)

Artists and songs I like in general: Aimee Mann (her voice is like butter and I could listen to her sing forever); Eliza Rickman: Pretty Little Head; Sims: Icarus; Dessa: Call Off Your Ghost; Sifu Hotman: Matches (I know no other songs by this artist but I LOVE this one so much. I’m gonna go listen to it right now); Lorde: Yellow Flicker Beat; Björk: Human Behavior; G Flip: Hyperfine, Gay 4 Me, Killing My Time; Aimee Mann: That’s Just What You Are [I love Aimee’s voice and could listen to her sing the phone book. All songs off her Magnolia Album are amazing too]

And gosh. So many more…

As for books!!!! OMG! I love books so much. I love so many different kinds of books. Some fave genres include: Classic Lit, Magical Realism, Sci-fi/Fantasy/Speculative Fiction; Engaging YA Series, Historical Fiction; Culinary History and Analysis; and Mythological Retellings

Classic Lit Faves:

“To The Lighthouse” by Virginia Woolf [This contains my fave quote in all of literature. This could also never be adequately adapted into a movie. It’s a fascinating look into how people think and how we all process internal thoughts. Must be comfortable with long sentences, semicolons, and allowing sentence clauses to wash over you like ocean waves in order to enjoy this book]

“Cider with Rosie” by Laurie Lee

“All Quiet on the Western Front” by Erich Maria Remarque

“The Portable Dorothy Parker” by Dorothy Parker

“The Odyssey” by Homer, translated by Emily Wilson

“The Iliad” by Homer — both Emily Wilson’s Translation and Stanley Lombardo’s Translation

Magical Realism

“The House of the Spirits” by Isabelle Allende

“Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter” by Mario Vargas Llosa

“Bless Me Última” by Rudolfo Anaya

“Like Water for Chocolate” by Laura Esquivel

SFF Faves:

“An Absolutely Remarkable Thing” and “A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor” by Hank Green

“The Martian” by Andy Weir

The Tiffany Aching line of the Discworld Series by Terry Pratchett (“The Wee Free Men,” “I Shall Wear Midnight,” “A Hat Full of Sky,” and “Wintersmith”)

“The Locked Tomb” Series by Tamsyn Muir (“Gideon the Ninth,” “Harrow the Ninth,” “Nona the Ninth” so far)

Engaging YA

“The Hunger Games” Trilogy by Suzanne Collins

“Grishaverse” Series by Leigh Bardugo

“Shadow and Bone Triogy” (related to the Grishaverse) by Leigh Bardugo [note: I didn’t know until making this list that Leigh Bardugo is an Israeli Jew! Very cool]

Historical Fiction:

“Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistlestop Cafe” by Fannie Flagg [the associated cookbook is very good. Also, you’ll never eat ribs the same again]

“Tracks” by Louise Erdrich [one of the most interestingly written books I’ve ever read. Has two dueling narrators. This is part of a series of books but can be read as a standalone]

Culinary Analysis History

Bree Wilson’s books (“First Bite: How We Learn to Eat,” “Consider the Fork,” and “The Way We Eat Now,” specifically) are some of the best out there. [I didn’t realize until a couple weeks ago that Bee Wilson and the classicist translator Emily Wilson are sisters! They are both extremely smart, engaging writers.]

“Omnivore’s Dilemma” by Michael Pollan

“An Edible History of Humanity” by Tom Standage

“Food: A Cultural Culinary History” by Ken Albala (this one is a Great Courses course, so not technically a book. But it’s available most places you can get audiobooks. And it’s what got me fascinated with this subject)

Mythological Retellings

“Circe” and “The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller

“The Silence of the Girls” and “The Women of Troy” by Pat Barker [TW Rape]

“Norse Mythology” by Neil Gaiman

Genre Defy-ers

(These are some of my All Time Faves that can’t really be confined to any genre)

The “Outlander” Series by Diana Gabaldon [and the related “Lord John” Series by the same author] (TW: for Rape)

“The Anthropocene Reviewed” by John Green

Just Finished Reading

“Breakfast at Tiffany’s” by Truman Capote (Wow it was so good. I haven’t seen the movie in a while but I seriously doubt they adapted it faithfully. It was so surprising!!!)

Currently Reading

“Murder on the Orient Express” by Agatha Christie

Selections From My To Be Read List

“The City of Brass” by S.A. Chakraborty

“Lessons in Chemistry” by Bonnie Garmus

“The Source” by James Michener

“The Secret of Cooking” by Bee Wilson

“Equal Rites” by Terry Pratchett

“A Time Traveler’s Guide to Medieval England” by Ian Mortimer

“What You Are Looking For Is In The Library” by Michiko Aoyama

“The Doomsday Book” by Connie Willis

I also love to read cookbooks from various cultures to gain insight into those cultures in a very tactile way.

Sending you love and gratitude! 💜💜💜💜

I’m always down to discuss books!

Here are five songs picked while being extremely sad and bored on a 2 hour drive through the rain

Never Love An Anchor - The Crane Wives - I really like minor key sad folk music okay, this shouldn't surprise any of you

Some Nights - fun. - Screw all of you, the hipster crap I listened to at 18 was great and I will not hear otherwise.

High on Sunday 51 - Aimee Mann - I enjoy the ambiguity of whether the line is 'let me be your heroine' or '-your heroin' altogether too much. (Also top ten songs I just simply don't believe aren't supposed to be gay)

My Computer - Everything Everything - 'you're in love with the future/I don't know why' is one of those phrases that has just permanently burrowed into my skull

Crazy Classic Life - Janelle Monae - Dirty Computer album of all time
