✩♬₊˚.🎧Five songs I'm into right now!⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧▶︎
Tagged in one of my fav type of tag games by the marvelous @iron-sparrow and @dragonsongmakhali! Ty both so much for thinking of me!! I live to share tunes! (And partake in all the good stuff everyone else shares when these come around!)
(Also, I nicked your idea, Iron, and added the lyrics I liked too c': thanks fren! hahah )
I've included YouTube and Spotify links for folks who use both platforms. I am into a few songs atm! Not all Blorbette related. If they appear on the playlist I curate with my husband for our ragtag bunch of OCs I have marked them with a ✩ c:
Take Me To The River - Lorde's cover of Talking Heads Spotify | YouTube
Sixteen candles, there on my wall. And here I am, the biggest fool of them all.
Talking Heads are one of my all time favourite bands. Last year I read David Byrne's book about music and it was amazing! Anyway, I absolutely love when new artists I love cover old bands I love. Turns out Lorde (and others) just released a whole tribute album to one of the best albums of all time, Stop Making Sense. Lorde has been a big mainstay for me since 2012! Most of Lorde's covers bop too and this is absolutely no exception.
New Love - Ziggy Alberts✩ Spotify | YouTube
But if I stay like this what could become of everything dear that I've done? Like damming rivers that lead to seas, I've got to trust that some new love will find it's way back to me.
This song was just released last week! I was so happy! I love Ziggy, he's one of my fav young Aussie artists! It was a joy to be able to put him on the playlist for the Blorbettes. Like many of the songs husbo and I throw on there, it's not lyrically perfect for a setting like XIV. But it's got the right vibes.
War Pigs - T-Pain✩ Spotify | YouTube
Yeah time will tell on their power minds, making war just for fun (yeah) Treating people just like pawns in chess. Wait 'til their judgement day comes. This particular one is a Cal/Leon number and not related to the Blorbettes . But. When my husband played me this last year after adding it to our playlist, it absolutely blew me away and I have not stopped listening to it almost daily since. Even Ozzy agrees about it being the best cover of War Pigs ever, so I feel justified.
Eurus - The Oh Hellos Spotify | YouTube
But still the bait hanging from the string is calling my name. And like the wind it slips again, out of my fingers.
This is probably an all time fav song. It's on one of my non XIV writing playlists and so it has been on heavy rotation in my head and my heart for a long, long time now. And probably will be forever c': What I love most about it is the length and the way it builds and stops suddenly. It's a short song, that is very full, right until the moment it's over. A lot like the message in its lyrics!
Rings - Aesop Rock Spotify | YouTube
Shapes falling out of the fringe. All heart though we would have made cowardly kings. They will chop you down just to count your rings.
I am a big Aesop Rock fan. My husband got me into him many years ago and although he has many more recent tracks than this; including some wicked 8-bit tunes, this is probably my favorite song of his. It's also very vibes for me atm because work related shenanigans which I shan't give my precious blog space to any more than that c':
I thought about tagging some moots, but actually guys, I love music so much I'm leaving this as an open tag to all of you! I'd love to know what all the folks in our tumblr neighbourhood are listening to! Recommend me tunes! <33

Jeremy Jordan masterpost (part 2!)
Well that certainly took longer than I was expecting. Part 1 is here.
I also realized that it’s absolutely crazy to try and cover all his concerts, so these are just the ones that I have personally listened to/watched. Since I’ve listened to them, I also included some of my thoughts (if you care for that kind of stuff 💀).
Again, the shows in blue (which should be most of them) are the ones that I have a version different from the one I linked below. Like the last post, if you want access to that, dm me—I’m willing to gift each person up to two!
Without further ado, let’s start :D
Concerts
Breaking Character (2014):
His first cabaret style show! Personally still one of my favorites. Love the guests he brought on. This is the only one of his shows (that I know of) where the setlist fluctuates depending on the specific show.
Highlights: Fun songs he hasn’t really done since such as Anthem, Chipotle, Maybe I’m Amazed.
Original Songs: Good Enough (+ deleted rap verse depending on the show), Revelation, Underwater
Pretty much the full show (with Ashley and Krysta): https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLr-KiuMoSWPGioEdNHEbAJCbvG6p6fiqP&si=IDddaYii8eZYFpfc
If anyone has the recording of the show with Keke Palmer, I’ve been looking for that one
Jeremy’s T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E.! (2015):
Honestly this show made me a little uncomfortable 💀. It’s in a “game show” style and is actually really fun in the beginning (there are audience questions and JJ trivia), but it then takes a bit of a weird personal turn (although he said in an interview that he wanted that part to come out of nowhere so 🤷‍♀️. Had me squirming in my chair a bit).
Highlights: Everyone’s Come Here to See Me (one of my favorites of his openers), the audience questions, the ‘I don’t want to sing that’ medley, Under the Sea (Jeremy’s version)
Original Songs: Breathe Again, a song about facing his greatest fear (I’m just gonna call it ‘everyone’s naked’ haha, iykyk)
Everyone’s Come Here to See Me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7_pU05G9GA
Breathe Again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8B1QE_RbXvU
London - Hippodrome (2016):
This show seems to be a mix of Breaking Character and Jeremy’s T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E.!. Works a little better than Jeremy’s T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E.!, in my opinion. A pretty fun show overall!
Highlights: audience questions again, ‘Take Me or Leave Me’ with Ashley, the most EPIC medley ever
Original Songs: Good Enough (new lyrics), Hold On (A BOP), Memories of Loving You (one of my favs <3)
Here are some of the songs: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxsnvbhJ7KZPknZrui1vqsWybt340BGMa&si=vhvnmLhfy-Ee-Dwp
If anyone has the pro-shot or recordings from different days (I know they’re out there!), I am looking for those!
Elsie Fest (2017):
Love this set! I rewatch it almost monthly 💀.
Full set: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUizICzFhgU
Starring Opposite of You (2018):
Such a fun show! This is his and Ashley’s joint concert, and they do lots of fun medleys together!
Highlights: past shows medley (where they reverse roles), Jeremy’s old songs, musical duets medley
Original Songs: Guitar Medley, Memories of Loving You
Almost the full show: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiHqD-T4otnAentv3OPKM3cxxa6BbH8Mc&si=zGyqLpZHRvDvecAg
Cadogan Hall (2018):
Love this show! He sings a bunch of songs he doesn’t normally sing because he had to reschedule multiple times. Honestly, probably one of my favorites of his concerts.
Highlights: Raise a Little Hell, LET ME MAKE YOU PROUD (I’M SO HAPPY HE ACTUALLY SANG FROM TANGLED THE SERIES. unfortunately the audience doesn’t seem as enthused), Schmuel Song, It’s All Coming Back To Me Now (!!), honestly so many
Original Songs: Undertow (love this one), Guitar Medley, Underwater
Full show: https://soundcloud.com/no-1481/sets/cadogan-hall-1-9-18?si=574334f4e6f2415999efe787ba662994&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing
Shows with Seth Rudetsky (2018 + 2019):
Pretty fun shows! Half concert, half interview style, so very interesting, as well.
Highlights: that bonnie moment, his proposal story
2018 show: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiHqD-T4otnAp8cxF1XNgDcy_HUJIkTEl&si=6gQWqnnvE9QB3w4R
2019 show: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgJNsjoixqObyeUvYiXPUn9-eyarTPqh4
If anyone has the show they did at The Herbst, I’m looking for it!
Modern Broadway w/ Betsy Wolfe (2019):
Not my favorite, but there are some fun songs and duets.
Highlights: She Used to Be Mine (Betsy), Waving Through a Window (Jeremy), Suddenly Seymour (both)
Carnegie Hall (2019):
He royally messes up ‘Moving too Fast’ and forgets the beginning of ‘Oh, What a Beautiful Morning’, but everything else and the orchestra are great.
Highlights: Undertow with full orchestration
Original Songs: Undertow
Here are some songs: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiHqD-T4otnBoMy4jbPimGN8HCA1V0pnz&si=-k_u-7MrETj0pg0c
Moving too Fast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wd5wzCs2su8
Medley w/ Ashley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XuKEdFuEj4
Cadogan Hall (2019):
He makes it a trend to do new stuff at his London shows, so lots of fun material at this concert too! The crowd cheers so much that he comes back out for a second encore.
Highlights: Princess Jeremy Medley (debut), The Greatest Showman Medley (debut)
Original Songs: The Sun
Princess Jeremy: https://thebookofkate22.tumblr.com/post/188718478707/jeremy-jordan-cadogan-hall-261019-disney

If anyone has the full 10/27 matinee show, I’m looking for it!
UCPAC (2020):
Pretty standard show, some overall with the 2019 Cadogan Hall show.
Highlights: Princess Jeremy, At Last
Original Songs: The Sun
Moving too Fast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InaR0nkcBe0
She Used to Be Mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OotBKr3SUhE

The Scientist/Yesterday/So Far Away: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keiBHJfxKq0
At Last: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUwC0CNl4gw
Carry On (2020 + 2021):
My favorite Jeremy show ever! I think it’s very well directed and cleverly designed. Definitely on the more serious side (there are fun moments), so not your typical JJ show. I think this is a much more successful version of what he tried to do with Jeremy’s T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E..
Highlights: I literally can’t pick, the whole thing is so good—but I think the shows he did with live audiences packs a bigger punch (the pro-shot is amazing too though, and slightly different from the 2020 version).
Live Version:
Broadway, Here I Come: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJa5bpH4FAA
Santa Fe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP5OnYXoSRQ
Princess Jeremy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_Sz4UZcARE
Pro-Shot (thanks, @personinthepalace!):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMbraZrrh1o
I am always looking for recordings of the shows he did before COVID and will probably trade very unfairly for them!
The Seth Concert Series (COVID 💀):
Pretty fun shows, similar to the other Seth shows but with different songs.
Highlights: HURRICANE (I love death note), Donny Novitski, he talks about tangled in one of them!
Bonnie & Clyde Medley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVyK-YJlwPQ
Past Shows Medley w/ Ashley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRLyNN6znJ4
If anyone has his first TSCS show (I’m not actually quite sure how many there are), I’m looking for it!
Drury Lane (2022):
Another London show (which are always the best)! It’s definitely feels like a level up, lots of guests (Mikael from AOM, Frances Mayli Mccann, Andy Mientus (for one show)), and a sneak peek (at the time) of some AOM songs. Also, Ben tries to get him to sing Let it Go throughout the whole show and finally succeeds in the end.
Highlights: All the guest stars, Frozen II Medley, THE ENCORE IS SO SO GOOD (I love Jeremy’s version of Meant to be Yours)
Original Songs: Unfortunately he kind of stopped singing originals after COVID, but the AOM songs I guess
Drury Lane Medley: https://musical-treasures.tumblr.com/post/694059841368506368/jeremy-jordan-drury-lane-medley-drury-lane
When We Were Young: https://musical-treasures.tumblr.com/post/694134704948101120/jeremy-jordan-when-we-were-young-adele-when-we
Bonnie & Clyde Medley w/ Frances: https://musical-treasures.tumblr.com/post/694059561774186496/jeremy-jordan-and-frances-mayli-mccann-bonnie
AOM set: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2P75zO_Y-E
What You Own w/ Andy: https://musical-treasures.tumblr.com/post/694058609967005696/jeremy-jordan-andy-mientus-what-you-own
Frozen II: https://musical-treasures.tumblr.com/post/694058947225829376/jeremy-jordan-frozen-ii-medley-29th-august-2022
Encore: https://musical-treasures.tumblr.com/post/694058885053661184/jeremy-jordan-roles-i-could-play-in-the-london
They must release the pro-shot of this (please I’m begging). But if anyone has the second day, I’ve been looking for it!
The Cabaret (2023):
His most recent fully recorded concert (I believe). Pretty standard show. It’s not Ben at the piano, but actually his MD from the Broadway Cruise—they make a pretty good pair too!
Highlights: Princess Jeremy (yes, I just love this medley), erm this is embarrassing but I actually can’t quite remember much else standing out from this show (might change later if I listen to it again)
Bring Him Home: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxsdFG4zqFE
She Used to Be Mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx-gWWau4kA
Santa Fe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlcMZp0TlRU
West Coast Tour (2024):
Most recent concert series :))). I think the setlist changed a bit between shows, but it looked really really fun. Fun fact, this is the first concert he’s done since I became a fan (minus a couple one-offs), so I was definitely hyper fixated on it hehe. We’ll see if more content crops up in the future.
Highlights: JJ and Ben: A Decade of Song, Newsies in Ten Minutes (aka my favorite vid on the internet right now)
Shiksa Goddess: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdCs3039SLI&t=5s
JJ and Ben Medley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKWZEEH3YRg
Newsies Abridged: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sytv1huDms4
Santa Fe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCDInP-2dLo
If you went to this show, I’m so so jealous. But if you happened to take a recording, I would be forever grateful and will trade very unfairly for it 👀
Well, those are all the concerts that I’m aware of (that have been recorded in some way), if you happen to have one (a recording) that I missed, please dm me! I would love to trade!
Now that I’ve basically fully revealed myself as a *pirate* (rip), I will see you in my next post hahaha…

it is Time
for the post no one asked for but which i shall write nonetheless
now that Voyage has had time to settle, i am ready to put my thoughts into words that make some kind of cohesive sense, for my own benefit and hopefully some enjoyment for others
these are impressions gathered from the previews that Apple Music had available prior to album launch, my first listen-through during the twitch livestream with JD, as well as how all that has gelled over the last week and a half.
The Llandoger--first heard on the Jingle Jam stream and then the JJ concert, this one continues to be sheer fun. the Robbie energy is off the charts, the warmth of that refrain "we'll all be well tonight" really hits in the recorded version with the full chorus echo effect and feels like I'm hearing it live in a concert with the audience singing around me (which. will be made reality in less than three months AAAAH), there will be DANCING.
Whiskey Is the Life of Man--the banjo and the harmonies in this one are driven and intense and I really like that, but the overall sound is more growly and hard-drumming than my tastes generally lean toward. the "recording" sound effects in different places are pretty cool, and did i mention the harmonies. as;lkdjf for being my last favorite song if i were forced at plank-walking-point to rank them, I still admire the craft that went into it!
Proud Mary--this was one of the songs they did a YouTube version of that I would have been clamoring to be on the Kickstarter-unlocked studio sessions album if it hadn't already been on the Voyage tracklist, and the Voyage version is even richer. Instant head bopping, 10/10 no notes very excited to have this on my Spotify playlists now <3
Leaving of Liverpool--starts with a bang and loses zero of that energy. Some great a capella sections and again, very dancy. HYPED to hear this one live!
Mutiny--when I heard the preview on Apple I was happy for another comic Robbie song, and the full does not disappoint. Delightfully ironic, classic waltz with definite Sea of Thieves vibes (I say knowing only the SoT songs they've covered). I don't have a lot of words for this one but it's one of my favorites. Simply darling.
Skadi's Hammer--the Apple preview did NOT prepare me. I thought it was going to be a weird little dark song I wouldn't particularly care about beyond being happy for Andy's songwriting credit and. well. we all know how THAT turned out. you've already heard my livestream-night frothing at the mouth and I have since mostly overcome the full-body petrification that would strike me the first several times I listened to it, but AAH. the swooping shh and the drum and the harmonies and the imagery it's SO COOL if they're all going to be entirely immersive sensory experiences i need more andy songs in my headphones STAT please and thank you.
John the Red Nose--we joke about BIG HATCHETS AND CLEAVERS but that's really so fun and then the way it softens down for the last verse, giving the spare ribs to the poor? CHEF'S KISS BEAUTIFUL STRUCTURE the building and building and climax and then that gentle bit of kindness and charity als;kdjf again the ARTISTRY in the songs that couldn't even fit into my top say five or whatever is mind-blowing. the fiddle background is wonderful and the cold winter forest vibes are settling in properly after Skadi's harvest time.
Greenland Whale Fisheries--new harmonies! more deaths! a breath of fresh sea air after our visit to the forest! all good things in their familiar a capella trad style we love to see it
White Frontier--and now the seas have turned cold and the wind has picked up and the drums drums in the deep wait sorry wrong lore. the chorus absolutely slaps despite being about a lot of death. this doesn't quite hit my top tracks when I sit down and think about it, but it sure gets stuck in my head more than you'd expect for all that...xD
One Hundred Feet--a;sldkfjas;ldkfj;sadlk skadi's hammer hit me physically, but this one hit my feels. classic TLJ vibes. a pleasure to the ears, a wringing of the ol' heartstrings. i'm in love. there's something so comforting about Robbie's sad singing, isn't there? and the harmonies on that one change-up bit in a chorus near the end are absolute perfection. can't sing this one's praises enough.
Willie Taylor--girlboss time ft. some fun sound effects! dally dilly dumm dilly dumm dum dum dum dally dilly dum dilly all the wayyyy. a little funky for my tastes in places but not much more than Bonny Ship the Diamond which I sometimes have a hankering for regardless. I'm not clear on whether she killed Willie's new bride-to-be or not but I'd rather not know. Nicely eases you out of sad feels and gets you ready for funtimes.
Maggie's Ship--I believe this is what the people call a 'banger'? heavy on the cymbals but the slap bass goes hard. cacophonic in places, especially the end but. survivable. And a fun character sketch, Dave's lyric work here is delightfully twisty!
Shawneetown--what can I say. harmonies. stompability. pure joy. never gets old love love love.
Paddy West--THE closer of closers. restful without a jarring drop of momentum, engaging and funny to keep up the positive vibes of the last few songs, and the gradual attenuation at the end is BEAUTIFULLY done.
Overall I really admire how there's songs for such a variety of tastes on here, the artistry on display within that variety, and how structured the flow of the songlist is. It feels just like its name--truly a voyage in song.

summer 2022.
well fam...has it been a minute or what? i realized i was getting more anxious to upload, because it seemed all too daunting. i have accepted that this will inevitably be a subpar rewind just because oh so much happened. and after this year i hope to get back to more frequent posts. any waayyy...
music.
‘world’ by seventeen. AKA SONG OF THE SUMMER. AKA OWNER OF MY HEART. AKA THE BESTEST TRACK EVER. it literally is full of sunshine and rainbows. it cures any ailment. i freaking love this, fills me for breakfast, lunch and dinner. it is the absolute best track. and it fills my heart. 10 out of 10 recommend.
Tumblr media
seventeen. literally their whole discography. i had the immense pleasure to see them live during their north american tour. all i can say is that it was such a unique experience. listening to their music since debut, watching their survival show, and seeing them grow. it was wild to just see them, because when i first got into k-pop i never thought i would be able to experience a live show without going to korea. then to see the first group that got me into k-pop, host an arena tour…i was so emotional seeing them in real life. like we are talking ugly crying level. 
‘slam the door’ by ciipher. a complete an utter bop. thank you to ‘yoshified’ on youtube, because dang this person really recommends the best tracks. and i would never have had a complete summer playlist without this. 
‘scared’ by p1harmony. let me start by saying this was noisy but it an absurdly good way. like oh my goodness they just came for me like that.
nayeon. our queen. ‘pop’ and ‘no problem’ on repeat. we stan. (p.s. ready for jihyo’s solo) 
monsta x. ‘whispers in the dark’ and ‘if with u’ also on repeat. all the time. 
onlyoneof. the single tracks that they’ve released. i am in love with ‘be free’ by KB, and ‘begin’ by yu jung. and the music videos and the intertwining storylines, like yes please and thank you. 
newjeans. ‘you got me looking for AATTTTEEENNTTTIOOOOON’ catch me screaming their lyrics at the top of my lungs. the way they dropped their singles, like woah hold up. ‘hype boy’ definitely a favorite track. and ‘cookie’ is never played it makes me immensely uncomfy. i hope they stick to chill appropriate concepts, because come on hybe…
Tumblr media
blackpink. the queens have returned and this album…controversial opinion….the title tracks were not it, but the B-sides. fammmmm these slayed it. catch me crying in the bathroom, i love them. 
‘after like’ by ive. how can they always release bops, and the b-side ‘satisfaction’ like come on stunning. 
’24/7’ by DKB. this track. i love that it comes in with the chorus. i freaking love it. 
‘my type’ by brb. this is a new group i discovered and love them. technically not k-pop, it’s in english, they are from singapore but i couldn’t not include because the vibes are there. and it sounds heavily influenced by k-r&b and i am here for it.
youtube
‘excuses’ by twlv. another chill bop. like this dude has an incredible voice, and he could sing my grocery list and i would love it. 
‘sexy nukim’ feat. RM by balming tiger. FAM. when this song dropped i was like WOOOAHHHHH. these artists’ style and groove, i can’t get over it. thank you namjoon for collaborating with them and putting them on my radar, because they pass the vibe check. 
Tumblr media
‘us’ by moon jong up. randomly stumbled upon this gem, and i am so sad that there is not more content from this stunning human. 
‘mascara’ by XG. it’s a bop, i scream it. ‘baby girl don’t you ever be wasting your good energy’ like amen honey!
‘talk that talk’ by twice. it’s twice you know its gonna be a bop. the dance addicting. 
dramas & movies *spoilers ahead*
my mister. i would give this drama a 9 out of 10. we follow dong-hun who is really going through it, like bad. like his wife is having an affair with his boss, and his family is a mess. his brothers live with his mother, and they are kind of subpar not doing the most. he meets ji-an a young girl in a difficult situation, she is being harassed by loan sharks. things get shady when she comes to find out about the affair, and uses it to blackmail the vice president and she has to get dong-hun to leave the company. she obviously doesn’t go through with it, but fates get tangled, and i would be lying if i said i was upset that our main actors didn’t get up together. but i understand why, they learned a lot from each other. it was tragic, raw, and everything you want in a melodramatic drama. 
Tumblr media
tomorrow. fam i started this drama for rowoon, but i finished it for soohyuk because dang….we follow jun-woong who is struggling to get a job after school but ends up in a coma and meets grim reapers. they come up with a plan to get him back to the world of the living by helping the crisis management team. this team’s goal is to save suicidal people. i loved the dynamics between the team, and i loved the ending of this drama. i would give this drama a 9 out of 10. i loved the style of it, each episode being a new situation and issue to solve. this was a difficult drama to watch at times, it obviously covers the trigger topics of suicide, domestic violence, and depression. the concept was unique and i loved how they offered reasonable ways to overcome and get necessary help. i loved the relationship that was unpacked between koo ryeon and joong-gil because it went so far back, and his choice to completely forget it because the situation pained him so much. but she remembered it all. i recall my heart breaking into a million pieces as their story unfolded towards the end. like there were not enough tissues to rescue all the tears.
Tumblr media
like literally look at the way he looks at her. let me weep.
Tumblr media
sh**ting stars. this drama was a 10 out of 10 cute fun summer drama. we are in the entertainment world with our girl han-byeol (lee sung kyung) as our leader of the PR team, and she actively manages gong tae-sung (king young-dae). he is the top actor, and their relationship is everything. she starts the drama unable to tolerate him, because she has known him since college. we come to find that he has always had feelings for her, and little misunderstandings had driven them apart. but my goodness you know that by the end of the drama they were together, and sooooo stinking cute. i loved their interactions. i also freaking loved how everyone ended up happy! like our second male lead was no second male lead, he got his own happy ending. and i loved the coworkers that ended up together in this drama too. like yes we stan character development all around! it was great!
Tumblr media
sound of magic. i don’t know what i expected, but dang it was a musical and outright wild at times. i gave it a 9 out of 10. yoon a-yi is a high school student working hard to support her sister. she doesn’t have a supportive father because loan sharks drove him out of the home. na il-deung (hwang inyeop) competes with her to be top of the class. he likes her (obviously). our girl stumbles upon an amusement park and meets a magician there. he encourages her to believe in magic, and a quite odd relationship ensues. definitely not going to lie it was on my radar because my hwang inyeop is in it, and literally anything and everything he touches is gold to me. but it was incredible, and i loved all that they did in this drama, though it was short lived, i hope they will continue this story. 
Tumblr media
yumi’s cells 2. i was hyped fam. really hyped about it. like yes ba-bi (jinyoung), he is our man. we stan, we love. men fail. he failed us, and i’m not going to lie did that bump my rating down to a 7…yes. yess it did. once again we follow our girl yumi, in her life through work, pursuing her dream of writing. achieving her goals. and seeing ba-bi be absolute trash. so yeah. i hate ba-bi and if anyone asks i never liked him. i am ready for season 3 to come through and give us a happy ending. i am deserving of this after surviving this long, only to be betrayed by ba-bi. 
Tumblr media
dear m. FINALLY i got to see this gem after waiting forever (only) to see it. so sad about the delayed release because it would surely have taken over everything if it was a live drama. i loved the concept of always trying to figure out who ‘M’ was, and it looking like it was anyone and everyone. we follow joo-a who has been besties with min-ho (jaehyun) for forever, and they are at university together. we follow their university struggles as they get through the semester, and we meet their roomates, who are all great. and i loved that we got to see all their personalities develop and grow. there was also immense growth from joo-a, which we love to see. i loved all the characters we got to meet. and seeing jaehyun freaking slay, i stan. i would rate this an 8.5 out of 10.
Tumblr media
weathering with you. this was an anime that i watched and it was stunning. i loved the concept. a high schooler runs away from home to tokyo. he befriends a girl who has the power to control the weather. it wrecked me emotionally and i loved it. i would give it a 7
Tumblr media
studio ghibli: my neighbor totoro, ponyo, howl’s moving castle, spirited away. not me rewatching these studio ghibli titles. they are always a 10 out of 10 recommend. 
why her. once again hwang inyeop. my man coming through with the dramas that will make me cry. in this drama, we follow oh soo-jae a freaking boss lawyer. like the youngest partner at the best law firm in korea. she is driven out and gets demoted to be a professor at a law school. gong chan is a student there and it turns out they had met in the past. he was wrongly accused of murder and she was his public defendant, she was the only one who believed in him. but it turns out that she didn’t give the case her all as the defendant. but he knows her true intentions, and how she was blackmailed by the political moves happening. they all work together along with other students in their law clinic to uncover the truth. it was really frustrating/infuriating at times, because the head of the law firm is absolute utter garbage and the things he did were AWFUL. but overall i loved this drama. a 9 out of 10 recommend. 
Tumblr media
the uncanny counter. i loved this one. we follow so mun who gets possessed by a spirit that rescues people on the verge of death, to hunt down evil spirits. these fellow counters operate out of a noodle shop. and we meet our crew of unlikely heroes here. i loved how they were a found family, and they all come together in various situations. there were so many hilarious laugh out loud moments imbedded in this quite sad theme. se-jeong is the best and i picked this one for her. i would rate it an 8.5 out of 10.
Tumblr media
extraordinary attorney woo. if there was ever a green light drama this would be the one. a 10 out of 10 recommend. it was so precious, and i loved all the characters that we met. we follow woo young-woo an incredible bright individual who happens to be on the autism spectrum. she starts working at a law firm, and this brings about the best and worst in others. each episode was a new case, and we got to see her unique perspective on conquering each case. we also saw her relationships with others in the hanbada office. freaking fell in love with lee jun-ho, and her bestie from university yoon-kyung. they were always looking out. and we loved the character development that happened with their coworker joo jong-hyuk. this one shall get it’s own recap. because i have so many feelings and favorite moments. 
Tumblr media
alchemy of souls. when i say i didn’t know what to do with my life when this gem of a drama ended, i literally did not know what to do. it was a top tier drama for me. like the characters, the set design, the world building. it has it all. it shall too have its own recap, because dang, too much happened and i am not emotionally ready for december. i would 10 out of 10 recommend. we follow jang-uk from a noble family, rejected by the skilled teachers. he stumbles upon mu-deok, who happens to be naksu an elite warrior/assassian trapped in mu-deok’s physically weak body. she decides to be his master and teach him fighting skills. a lot of crazy nonsense goes down, and so many plot twists happen. and i freaking loved it. i loved the character development especially from out naksu and wanting to put others around her first. like yes queen.

I'll try to keep this short ❤️ I love this album so much 🥺 And I think I told you that Alone would destroy me and it really did... And it's also my favorite from the album. I can't really explain what I feel when I listen to it, but I always have this tightness in my chest. I had it when I first listened to it and I had a feeling the lyrics would make me cry and they did. It really brings me back to my quarantine days... and not to the better ones. It really has that choking, depressing feeling that quarantine had. I really love his singing in the song too 🥺 He sounds amazing, so gentle, so soft, and yet very strong (I'm literally contradicting myself but anyway)
I really liked Like Crazy too. The mv was amazing, and I read so many theories. Most of them were kinda the same, you know with the woman also representing him. Both the English and Korean versions were done so well 🥺 interlude: dive ❤️ his introduction from the busan concert❤️ oh, and the transition between the songs? Him having a drink at the end of dive, and then like crazy having this "being intoxicated in a club" vibe, and alone starting with an alarm clock... I'm obsessed with this. Also I'm SO SAD letter is only on CD 😭😭 Like I understand why, but Jimin 😭 It's my second favorite from the album, and after listening and crying to Alone, I cried to Letter too 💔 The parallels with blue & grey 😭 Shivi, the urge to get a lyric tattoo from alone or letter 😭
Also I still don't know if he's singing "please me" during Like Crazy and we will never know and it will bother me forever 😂 But anyway. He did such an amazing job, I'm so happy he could finally release this album. And I'm so happy he said he got to overcome and heal from these feelings.
Ps. Let Jimin curse on TV okay thanks that's all ❤️ -🦋
putting it under read more bc i rambled lol <3
i love it so much too 🥺 oh and same, alone took me back to my own quarantine days 😭 i was stuck at a relative's place for three months and my aunt wasn't very good to me. i used to cry alone a lot and that was when i had found bangtan :( they really saved me :( and alone took me back to all of those feelings i went through back then before I found bangtan 😭 everyone's stories are so different but im sure so many people related to alone 🥺 (and no i get what you mean by gentle and soft yet so strong, and i agree) i absolutely LOVED face off too. his voice in face off his so addicting and those high notes damn 😭
and like crazy is a fckin bop ✋🏼 RIIIIGHHTTTT i loved the mv too the colours in the mv .. *chef's kiss* (this is me speaking from a gifmaker perspective btw, i thought the mv would be impossible to colour properly but I had so much fun colouring it and I was satisfied w the results gdhfhdjhfdj ANYWAY thats not the point fghdjfhj) AND PLS TEH THEORIES. SO GENIUS. AND THEY MAKE COMPLETE SENSE TOO. yes yes yes you're so right the transition and connection between the songs truly genius 😭😭😭😭 ALSO LETTER!!!!!!!! YES !!!!!!!!!!!!! im obsessed please it is SUCHHHHH a beautiful song 😭😭😭😭 i cried to letter too 😭 its my new song that i fall asleep to 😭 it was with you before this hdjhfjd. its so beautiful and jikook's voices go so well together and they sound so beautiful 😭 and god it being a hidden track and starting at 6:13 of like crazy english version on the cd just .. it just feels sooooo personal and full of love 😭😭😭 i really wish it was on spotify too but I downloaded the song and added it to my playlists through local files thing on spotify 💖 omgomgomg anon you should definitely get the tattoo!!!! <333
i will believe it is "please me" and run with it 🧘🏼‍♀️ and me too 🥺 the album is so so good im so proud of him 🥺 right, im happy this album helped him to let go of those feelings 🥺
pls you know when they reviewed face off alone and like crazy three days ago and said face off wasn't eligible (?) i thought they totally dropped smf from music shows bc 1. they didn't review it along w the other songs 2. and i thought maybe they didn't review it bc it was already known that it has cussing and i got SO SAD that they wouldn't perform smf 😭 and i was confused too bc bighit did say in the notices that he would perform the prerelease track and the main track. but i was relieved yesterday when they said he performed smf 😌 anywayfddh im dumb. i can't wait to see the performances heheh <33

Idea shamelessly stolen from @queenoftherodeoo, my top 15 albums 2022 ✨
1.     Wet Leg – Wet Leg
36 minutes, 12 tracks, not 10 seconds of filler on the entire thing. Feral bubblegum perfection.
2.     MUNA – MUNA 
It’s just everything you want in a pop album. Sad. Thoughtful. Queer. Full of bops.
3.     Tropical Dance - Charlotte Adigéry and Bolis Pupul
Slinky disco with big beefy beats, just impeccable, sophisticated vibes from start to finish.
4.     We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong – Sharon Van Etten
This is probably my favourite album of hers yet. It’s dark and moody and hopeful and ethereal all at the same time.
5.     Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Cool It Down
Love the way this album veers between classic YYY stampy audacity and sounding a bit like Goldfrapp.
6.     Sudan Archives – Natural Brown Prom Queen 
TLC vibes mingled with 90s classic hip-hop like Jurassic 5, layered with whip smart lyrics. 
7.     Confidence Man – Tilt 
This is so 90s, just pure Dee-lite/Saint Etienne nostalgia with a sprinkling of savage lyrics. See. Them. Live. You will have the absolute time of your life. 
8.     Beth Orton – Weather Alive
Has Beth Orton ever released anything that didn’t feel like peering into my own soul? This is so fragile in places and yet also underpinned by the classic Orton steel that drew me to her on Trailer Park. 
9.     Charli XCX – Crash
Hooks for days and deeply infectious. Each track makes me go ‘this is my favourite’ only to be replaced immediately by the next one. 
10.  Father John Misty – Chloe and the next 20th Century
Just an impeccable collection of layered retro sounds--from grandiose lush soundscapes that wouldn’t be out of place in old Hollywood movies to pseudo-70s soundtracks with someone staring wistfully out at the rain.  
11.  Amber Mark – Three Dimensions Deep
Kept hearing this song that had such a next level low-key sexy funk vibe, I was convinced it must be a Prince cover. Imagine my delight on discovering no, it was Amber Mark and she’d made an entire album like that. 
12.  Pre-Pleasure – Julia Jacklin
Love the slacker turned sweet vibes here and she always delivers on the lyrics. 
13. Profound Mysteries III - Röyksopp
Every track is its own mini movie soundtrack. Just a completely immersive record.
14. Léon - Wildest Dreams 
Her voice. I want to take a bath in it. That’s it.
15. Beebadoobee - Beatopia 
Smart and funny with melodies for days, I love everything she does but this album is the most cohesive and consistent thing she’s done so far. 
I threw my top three tracks from each plus my favourite 25 songs this year into a playlist if anyone fancies some new tunes.

hello! the amazing @callouiee tagged me in their post spelling their url with songs they like for me to do the same if i wanted and i thought it would be fun! they made theirs l&h/larrie related but i have such a long url that i think I’m going to use my favorite songs as well! this will also give me an excuse to gush about some of my fav songs
so i wrote the above paragraph and then tried to find and narrow down songs which proved to be very difficult lol. i probably made it harder on myself than needed bc i wanted to choose best and most perfect songs but there are just too many. this is the best list i could come up with, but i feel pretty good with it! if anyone ever wants to talk music, i’m so down i have so many favorites.
p.s. i really truly did gush about every song i’m so sorry for how long this is
s- Satellite (Harry Styles) this song is my baby. i love her with every fiber of my being. i have dance parties by myself in my apartment when this song comes on i literally can’t get enough of it. i honestly thought matilda would be my fav song off harry’s house cause like... it’s matilda, but this is the song i come back to most often from that album.
u- U.N.I (Ed Sheeran) okay so i have so many distinct memories listening to this song on the bus to/from middle school. anything from ed’s + album was my favorite. his stuff from that time used to be my favorite music along with 1D. i thought i was so cool when i memorized the rap part lol
n- No Children (The Mountain Goats) i will admit i did find this song through the tiktok trend but i absolutely loved that trend, i thought it was so cute. i listened to the full song shortly after discovering the song and it shortly became my second most listened to song of last year. w/o getting into too much detail, this song holds a special place in my therapy journey lol 
f- Fine Line (Harry Styles) what is there to say about her? she probably holds the biggest spot in music related to my healing journey. i fully annotated her once through the lens of my own therapy and healing journey. she means a lot a lot to me
l- Like Real People Do (Hozier) i am a hozier slut and i’m not afraid to admit it. i love anything this man puts out. sometimes i listen to his music like i’m a thirsty begger and his music is the only water that’s been offered to me in weeks. i could have put any of his songs on this list and you would have gotten the same reaction out of me. he makes me feel feral and ethereal at the same time.
o- Outer Space/Carry on (5SOS) god this song will never not get me. this song was my fine line of my middle school/high school years. if i ever see this song live i’m pretty sure i’ll die on the spot. i have a half-ish sleeve tattoo planned around this song. there’s like five songs on this list that i have tattoos planned around but none of them as big as this one. everything about this song is just perfect.
w- Written All Over Your Face (Louis Tomlinson) do i even need to say anything about this one? it’s been on repeat since the album came out. it’s literally so good and i know it’s everyone’s favorite but it’s for a damn good reason. have you heard louis’ voice?????? literally perfection absolute bop and i can’t stop listening to it. this is louis’ sound and i’m so proud of him
e- Emotions (5SOS) any time i make a new playlist of things i’m currently listening to to have one shuffle/repeat, i put this entire album on there. i feel like the more i listen to it, the more addicted i get. also, Liz told me this song was very me codded and i feel like that’s so true. i’m always in my emotions lol. also also, that little clap/slap that happens every so often in this song gives me an unnecessary amount of serotonin. 
r- Right Now (1D) i also could have put any one direction song on this list but there’s something about this song that has always had a grip on my brain. immediate performance mode whenever this song comes on. they’re my boys. my babies. i’ve been a fan for a decade now which is absolutely wild. i miss them
s- Spaces (1D) this might have to be in my top 5 favorite one d songs. i don’t know if i even have an actual top 5 but if i did, this song would be in it. i feel like i’m ascending whenever i listen to this song; it’s similar vibes to satellite in dance party mode for me if that makes sense lol i can’t help but move whenever i hear this song
o- Only the Brave (Louis Tomlinson) again, does this need any explanation? there was a while when i couldn’t listen to this song bc it hurt my closeted heart too much. it still makes me sad but also very optimistic. i hope i can hear this song live one day surrounded by fellows queers who’ve also found their family through the boys. it doesn’t make it a solo song anymore then does it? we’re a family; more of a family than any church i’ve been a part of. 
m- Mum (Luke Hemmings) another album where i could put literally any song on this list bc i love them all so much. this song, however, beats the others out ever so slightly as being my favorite. i’m noticing a pattern with my favorite songs: satellite, spaces, mum. they all have a really big build up to an absolute cathartic release later on in the song. mum does give me church song vibes but in the least song ruining way possible. this song actually inspired me to make a playlist of songs that make me feel like im ascending whenever i listen to them
e- Egg and Soldier (Cosmo Sheldrake) okay okay okay i know you’re thinking that this song came super duper out of left field and is really weird and i definitely agree but here me out. all of his songs are super fun and kinda weird but so so cool and unique and unpredictable. i have yet to come across a song of his i don’t love. they all make me feel so connected to my inner child/the creativity i pushed away for so long.
t- To Be Alone (Hozier) again, i’m a hozier slut. this might be my favorite song of his but i’m unsure if i can even pick a favorite hozier song. that slide on ‘feeeeeels good’ gets me every single time. i’m weak in the knees i’m obsessed. the grungy, dirty electric guitar???? i can’t it’s too much 
i- If I Could Fly (One Direction) i couldn’t not add this one. it’s iconic and makes me cry maybe half of the time i listen. who let them write, record, and release this song? it’s literally so raw and vulnerable and i know i’ve written some pretty raw poetry but i don’t think i’ve ever written anything on this level. like ?????? i forget this song is a real song they released and not something a fanfic writer made up
m- Matter of Time (Ashton Irwin) god this album destroys me in the best way possible. and this song???? literally speaks to me and my soul. this is another one i want to get a tattoo of. it’s just like a warm hug from an older sibling/older friend. everything’s gonna be okay bud
e- evermore (Taylor Swift) I do love me some good taylor swift, especially folklore and evermore. i don’t think this one is my favorite, that’s probably the lakes, but i do remember hearing it for the first time and absolutely loosing it at the word switch at the end of the song. it still holds a special place in my heart for the hopefulness it’s able to give me whenever i don’t have a lot of it.
s- Sunflower Vol. 6 (Harry Styles) and we’re ending on the song that i wish i could be. if i could have the vibes of any song it would be this one. i’m one of those obnoxious people that make sunflowers their whole personality and whenever harry released this song i went feral for it. i love her so much and i hope i grow up and make her proud.
okay now that i’ve written more than anyone wanted to read, i want to tag some recent mutuals to do this too! Obviously there’s no pressure to do this or to write as much as i did, simply just putting a song is enough lol

KOOKIE I HAD THE BEST DAY TODSY WTF?!
OK FIRST I HAD MY FIRST FULL PERIOD WITH MY SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER
OMG HE’S SO GIRLBOSS 😤😤😤😤😤 HES A FEMINIST, ANTI RACIST, ANTI SEXIST, ANTI HOMOHOBIC, ANTI MISOGYNY 🤧🤧🤧🤧 NOT TO MENTION HE HAS A PRIDE FLAG WITH ALL THE COLORS AND A BADASS SNAKE TAT 🤭🤭 🫶🏽
He’s Asian American, or half Filipino and half American. AND HE DOESNT SUGARCOAT HOW BAD AMERICA IS LIKE TWO MINUTES AFTER WE WALKED IN HE STRAIGJT UP SAID “WE STOLE THIS LAND FROM NATIVE AMERICANS AND I WILL NEVER FORGIVE AMERICA FOR THAT.” LIKE HELLO?! YES STAN!!!
He’s so SOCIALLY AWARE about cultural incompetence and appropriation!!! He appreciates black brown and Asian communities so fucking much and it’s like, yes!! FINALLY!! He also has so many Roe v Wade posters BECAUSE HE BELIEVES ABORTION IS A HUMAN FUCKING RIGHT‼️‼️‼️‼️ he talked about how rock and roll is literally from Black women, a church sister moved really fast on her guitar and BAM ROCK AND ROLL and he outright admitted that white people appropriated the heck out of it and made it a “white thing” 😨
Since he’s half Filipino, he has this fish hook (?) necklace and tattoo because it honors his leadership. And he said when people ask him “omg u have a Maui necklace” he feels bad because his culture is reduced to a cartoon character!!! And I made so many connections with him in terms of cultural disrespect. I said that it’s sort of like jasmine bc I said “when I complain that there’s no south Asian representation in media someone and their mother has to tell me ‘what about jasmine/Aladdin’ these media are never culturally accurate. Bc aladddin is literally made of Turk, Desi, and Arabic culture mixed in to one to give white people “ a taste of south Asians 😜😍” and I said that and he was like “RIGHT, ITS SO FRUSTRATING BEING REDUCED TO SOMETHING THATS NOT CULTURALLY ACCURATE.” AND I WAS LIKE?! HELLO HE’S SO AWARE ABOUT CURRENT MEDIA LIKE MY OLD HISTORY TEACHER COULD NEVER 😩
NEXT WE WERE READING THESE POEMS AND THE TOPIC KF MISOGNy and you wanna know what he told the boys?!
“All you little boys here, if you wanna be a REAL man in the future then being a REAL man is not putting down women. Women have to right to speak up and put you in your place if you’re being rude, which men have a long history of doing. If you ever disrespect a woman gouge your eyes out and be ashamed. I don’t wanna see that Andrew Tate behavior in my classroom. I also don’t thing your mothers will be happy you spend your life on sexism and misogyny, so If you don’t wanna explain your actions to your own mother, i demand you change your mentality if you haven’t already.”
LIKE HELLO?! HE KNOWS ABOUT ANDREW TATE?! I JUST KNOW HE WOULD EAT UP THAT H0E IN SECONDS

Inspired by ZAYNs recent post (which if you haven’t seen by now what are you doing go watch it right now) i have decided to share some of my headcanons on the house of anubis characters feelings towards One Direction. With the show being set during the peak 1D years i’m surprised i haven’t seen a post like this before (maybe there are some but i just haven’t come across the because i’m not very good at social media) Prepare for a very long post as I have thought about this thoroughly.
Amber and Alfie - Definitely obsessive stans. Amber knows all the songs, all the key information about each member and absolutely adores Zayn. She had a full on meltdown when he left the band and had to be consoled by Nina for like a week. Patricia made fun of her (but she was also low-key hurt when he left, more angry than upset because of the stuff that he went through in the band but still sad). Alfie full on vibes to all the bops and gets super emotional when his shuffle plays the sad songs. He goes from 100 - 0 real quick and really gets in his feels.
Joy- A stan also, but more of a low-key stan. Loves them just as much as Amber but isn’t as obsessive as her. She shows her love all the time by having frequent sing along sessions with KT in their bedroom and is always updating people on the 1D news. She was upset when Zayn left, but thought it was right for him and was happy he did what was best for him. She fully supports all the boys in their solo careers.
KT- Isn’t a stan, but loves all the songs and all the boys. Can’t decide whether she has a soft spot for Niall or Louis, but i’m leaning more towards Niall. it just feels more right.
Mick and Fabian - Both aren’t stans and are not even really fans, but they know some songs. They don’t always recognise that a certain song is a One Direction song, but bop to them whenever they’re played. Mick is completely clueless as to who is who in the band and it drives Alfie INSANE. Mick just refers to each of them by their most notable feature. Jerome also gets infuriated by this, but has to hold it in, because he’s a secret stan. Jerome sometimes accidentally exposes himself tho because micks cluelessness just infuriates him too much not to say anything.
Nina- Likes their accent and finds them all adorable. Appreciates their songs. Prefers the slower songs to the bops.
Mara- She has a love hate relationship with them. She thinks they’re very talented and likes some, but not all of their songs. She prefers the more angsty ones, but also likes some of the bops and sometimes sings along sat on her bed while Kt and Jot have their sing along dance sessions. BUT she hates the obsessive fans. She absolutely despises the way some of the act and although she loves Amber hates the love she has for One Direction because of this. She was indifferent when Zayn left and when they broke up. She still has some of their songs on her playlist after they broke up.
Jerome - 2 words. SECRET STAN. This boy is a One Direction stan through and through. He hides it though and would never admit it to a single soul. He was there from the very beginning. He watched their entire journey. He frequently rewatches their journey as a band during X Factor just to feel something. Always makes fun of others in person when they talk about how much they love the band and the songs. He was shattered when the band broke up but hid it well. He frequently searches the bands hashtags on TikTok and Twitter.
Willow- This one was hard because she’s a character thats really hard to pin down so i don’t have much to say on her other than m she definitely doesn’t hate them. I would say she’s just a low-key fan. She like their music and the boys but just casually.
Patricia - I found her a bit difficult too if i’m honest. The biggest thing i would say is she does like them. She’s definitely not a stan or an obsessive fan, but vibes with their music and likes all of their albums. She sometimes (be it forcefully) gets involved in Kt and Joys sing along sessions and by the end gets very into it, although she forces the others not to tell anyone about it. She m has also had a few karaoke sessions where she has sang a One Direction song. She has a special connection with the angsty songs and the ones that have more meaning to them. As well as an extra special connection with ‘ready to run’, because of all the trauma she faced with Rufus and her trauma in regards to feeling locked up, claustrophobic (not in the physical sense) and feeling like she doesn’t have her freedom. She was upset when Zayn left and she definitely had things to say about it. When the band broke up she was upset, but not distraught. She has a dedicated playlist for her favourite 1D songs
Eddie - I left my boi last of all the kids because i have A LOT to say about him. He isn’t a stan, but he’s definitely a big fan. He doesn’t hide it to the extent Jerome does, but he downplays how much he actually likes the band. He definetly makes fun of the obsessive fans, because he just doesn’t understand how someone could be so obsessed with 5 boys that don’t even know they exist. He understands the appeal behind the obsession, because he appreciates that the boys are amazingly talented and that their songs slap, but doesn’t quite understand the obsession. He tries to convince people he only likes the Midnight Memories album and some of the songs from the Four album, because these are the albums that have the stereotypical ‘cooler’ sound but it’s a complete facade. He loves the first two generic pop albums the same way he loves the others and listens to them on repeat. He also has, in the privacy of his room ofc, shed a tear to some of the slower songs. When he first caught himself doing this he made a promise to himself that he would never listen to these particular songs in public in fear of being seen crying to a One Direction song. He has to hold back tears when these songs come on in public when he’s around a group of people. Despite his love of the band and the boys their is one thing he despises about them. He absolutely hates that Americans obsess over the fact their british.
Now to the adults:
Victor - The songs are too upbeat for him and too loud. He’s not a fan, but has some respect for some of the songs. He appreciates some of the lyrics and the boys voices.
Trudy - Not a stan but a fan. a big fan. Finds the boys adorable and definitely has a soft spot for Niall. Definitely definitely jumps in on the sing alongs with Joy and Kt when she’s walking past their room. She consoled Amber with Nina when Zayn left and when the band broke up. She made Amber a special breakfast both times and doted on her. She chastised anyone who made fun of Amber during these, in her words, troubling times. Trudy’s the one person in the house who listen to all of Amber rants about the boys and always gives her the time of day for this no matter what she’s doing.
Mr Sweet - A stan. Plain and easy. One of those older stans who frequently dad dances to their bops and always sheds a tear during their sad songs. He will be front and centre at concerts, waving flags to show his support. Eddie despises this ofc and when in a social setting with his Dad begs people not to play One Direction songs. But Jerome always takes the chance to play the boppiest songs just for the chaos, but he also gets the added bonus of getting to listen to the song himself without letting others know he wanted to. Jerome has to ofc physically restrain himself from dancing, but he has been seen a few times to be tapping his foot along to the song. Mr Sweet was very very upset when Zayn left and didn’t understand how the band could continue, but they did and he was all for it while still holding out hope that Zayn would return. He was very very upset when the band broke up and announced it on the school speakers whilst choking up.
That was fun. Now Anubis fandom and 1D fandom unite.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my absolute favorite person!
this year i decided to do a little something different. we’ve shared a lot of music with each other over our two year friendship and sharing new artists and songs with you has only made me enjoy and appreciate them more. so this year, i made you a series of playlists curated especially for you...

throwback : a soundtrack from your high school years. we’ll pretend that these songs aren’t as old as they actually are. it’s painful for both of us, tbh.
writing : instrumental versions of your favorite songs as well as some instrumentals from movies to get you in the writing mood. 
best friends : songs about besities for my bestie, my absolute favorite person and best friend for life.

11 and 17!!
11. tell me about your least favourite band or artist
Once again going the musical theatre route here to say as much as I love “Phantom”, “Cats”, and the “School of Rock” musical, Andrew Lloyd Webber can die in a tire fire. Truly a horrendous person all around, and I could write a full essay on why that is, but the cliffnotes:
- is almost singlehandedly responsible for the “Phantom of the Opera” movie turning out as badly as it did, because he insisted on being given an extreme amount of creative veto power with absolutely no knowledge of film as a medium or what makes it good. (Some responsibility does certainly go to Joel Schumacher, but people REALLY underestimate the impact ALW had on this film.) 
- has fucked over SO many actors, INCLUDING the great Patti Lupone, who, long story short, was contracted to play the main character in the original run of “Sunset Boulevard” in London and New York, but had her contract ripped out from under her so the New York role could be given to Glenn Close, who had been cast in LA (after they had refused to let Patti do the LA show herself). There was also a VERY recent debacle with the new Cinderella musical on the West End, where they closed the show early and then he blamed the cast, when in actually the production was fucked from start to finish and it wasn’t at all the cast’s fault. That one is particularly heinous because much of the cast is very early in their careers, and can’t hold their own the way a legend like Patti Lupone might be able to
- sooooo much plagiarism. I can’t even begin to list it all. He’s been taken to court so many times
- questionable relationships with young female ingenues. The phantom in “Phantom” is reportedly a self-insert which... tells you a lot about him, none of it good
- “Love Never Dies”, which is such a nightmare and largely the product of ALW refusing to know when to quit. Also does some really questionable things with the character of Christine that give me some bad vibes. It also gave us “The Beauty Underneath”, which is notable for technically being a song where the phantom realizes this kid is his bastard son, but, uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...... Out of context it is EXCEEDINGLY questionable. That was entirely a case of really badly thought out lyrics and over-enthusiastic performances by both actors (along with a few acting choices that are truly ?????????????), but it is genuinely wild to watch and realize that it went through workshops and months of rehearsals and apparently no one said anything???? WILD. Kind of a bop though, and the staging is pretty cool. Anyways definitely watch it but also don’t say I didn’t warn you
This is a HIGHLY incomplete list, just the things I could remember off the top of my head with minimal fact-checking. Love his music but this dude sucks. 
17.  what song in your playlist sounds like this 💖❤️🥰🤩💘💕 but the lyrics are 🖤🩸⛓💣🗡
Ooh, another one that I think kinda fits this is “Roaring 20s” by P!ATD. It’s got kind of an upbeat energy, but is about anxiety and insecurity and feeling overwhelmed and out of place. It’s also got some really interesting instrumental arrangements, and I think might be my single favourite P!ATD song.

Well I spent the day hanging up an admittedly insane amount of pride merch in my window and curating a new playlist of gay acoustic music which may or may not heavily rely on several music videos based entirely in my mind starring my comfort characters. But enough about me, how’s your Saturday going?

hello! still dead and still not speaking and today I am feeling sorry for myself so instead I'm going to make a niche post about something I'm super psyched for and is interesting to the target audience of Myself
so total ATDAO plot overhaul equals total ATDAO playlist overhaul and obviously I'm still keeping my old playlist (which needs some sharpening up anyway) but there's also A New One. new shiny playlist time
still lots of the old stuff on it but also new stuff! and some removals. more removals on the way. I'm still tweakin it
and also I forgot the most satisfying part of crafting new WIP playlists which is painstakingly combing through the song list and adjusting them and moving them back and forth and shuffling them about until the order is Exactly 100% Perfect
they don't go in order of plot relevance or anything, they just go In An Order which the universe reveals to me in cryptic prophecies and Just Giving Me The Right Vibe. my choice of what songs go where is utterly incomprehensible even to me and idk what the order will be until I move something and it clicks
but fuck it's satisfying when it's done
PLAYLISTS I spend too much time on them
I'm going back to sleep now, hopefully I will get to messages soon

may, june & july rewind: 2021.
well, the month of may did not hold as many favorites as to have it’s own post. so here we are, mid august because i forgot to post at the end of june and july.
music.
‘butter’ and ‘permission to dance’ by bts. need i say more.
Tumblr media
nct dream. our nuggets released their first album. all the tracks are bops, and we stan. my faves are: ‘dive into you’, ‘my youth’, ‘anl’, ‘be there for you’. lots of faves. 
txt. honestly these kids never hold back and their album has been an constant repeat. hello, ‘anti-romanitic’, ‘0X1=LOVESONG’, ‘magic’, i could just name all the tracks because they are all stellar. the vibe is new for them and they embraced it in an epic way. it has a nostalgic rock feeling, reminiscent of difficult times. and the title track music video conveys that energy.
youtube
‘save’ by nct127. our boys are back with a uniquely nct127 vibe. a dance electronic track that makes me miss our boys.
‘alcohol free’ by twice. a bop that originally i didn’t think i vibed with yet here i am.
‘mixtape: OH’ by stray kids. yes my children you’re killing it. i love it.
‘i want you around’ (feat devita) by yugyeom. yugyeom has found his r&b home. i love this for him and for my playlists. this track and the textures that their voices carry in this track is next level, and i love it.
‘ready to love’ by seventeen. it has been on repeat fam. like all day every day.
steel. this is an artist that came up on shuffle. and my goodness thankful that it did. because this artist is great. i heard a feature with ‘mango’, but i love his latest album with ‘rush’ and ‘bae’ being some of my favorites.
‘right through me’ by day6. it’s day6 even though it isn’t all of them it’s a vibe, and we stan. 
dramas & movies. *spoiler alert*
go ahead. i absolutely loved this chinese drama. it had all the classic moments one loves: the childhood story, unexpected family dynamics, and seeing our couple through their young adulthood. we got to follow the stories of an unlikely group of friends who came together under unexpected circumstances, leading them to become a family. they undergo many tests of their relationships, and some friendships developing into something more. i loved the sweet moments between all of the characters. and i loved that there was extreme character development for the majority of the characters we met. i rate it a 9 out of 10.
Tumblr media
youth of may. y’all. okay ’youth of may’ a TOP DRAMA. incredible, stunning, the storytelling dynamic and raw. the actors brought each and every character to life in every moment we had with them. it’s may 1980, we follow hee-tae, a seoul university med student, who comes back to the city of gwangju for an arranged blind date with soo-ryeon. but he ends up meeting myeong-hee in her place. we follow them as they fall in love and navigate the twists of the city of gwangju falling into turmoil as the government attacks its people. there were so many aspects i loved about the drama, from the medical aspects, that myeong-hee is a nurse trying to provide for her fam and hee-tae overcoming his past trauma to help the people of gwangju. to the all the families stories and how different each treated their children but all wanting to protect them in different ways sometimes hurting them in the end. the various class systems we saw and how hee-tae tried to break it. the heartbreak we all felt when myeong-hee died to say her little brother. and the heartache we felt when they couldn’t find her until decades later, as he still carried her herbal mints with him.
….until the day we meet again, i’ll keep swimming…
it was a stunning story and i am so glad i watched it. i would rate it a 12 out of 10. (these two actors are intensely incredible, and i cannot even express how freaking awesome they are as actors.)
Tumblr media
so i married the anti-fan. this was a cute fun drama. i appreciated how geun-young, our leading lady, was able to see the unique qualities of our star, who joon. and that they ended up together staying true to the title. and the full cheese was present in the finale when he proposed after coming back after reclaiming his glory. we stan a redemption story. they were cute, i loved the funny moments when they were starting to get to know each other. and it was a cute fresh story of hate to love. i would give it an 8 out of 10.
Tumblr media
law school. this one is a little out of my comfort zone. we follow jong-hoon a former prosecutor turned professor at a..you guessed it…law school. we follow a few of his students as they are faced with a unique case surrounding their professor and an administrator who dies while on campus. there are secrets, and grey histories, battered relationships and fragility that i haven’t seen many dramas address. and i haven’t watched a law tv show like this since ‘how to get away with murder’. but it was great and i loved in the beginning of the show they were create the story and lead us to belief that we solved the crime only to have it unravel in the last 3 minutes of the episode. i loved all the twists and turns, but am sad that the lead couple that i wanted to happen didn’t really happen. but you know that wasn’t the main focus of this drama so it is what it is. i would rate it a 7 out of 10.
Tumblr media
doom at your service. y’all this was great, a masterpiece from seo in-guk and park bo-young, we stan. i knew it would make me cry and it did, it was soooo great. we follow dong-kyung an editor who finds out she has a terminal brain tumor, and she comes to make a contract with myul-mang. he is a middle man between god and humans, also know as ‘doom’. we follow them through the initial contract to them developing feelings for one another, to the baffling decisions they have to make. emotionally we had development for our characters and we love character development. we love the unique storyline. we loved the quirky comedic moments. we love the second love storyline between her best friend ji-na and her coworker joo-ik, which needs its own story (i would definitely watch that story) i would give it a 9 out of 10.
Tumblr media
and a gif for our second leading couple that deserve their own drama.
Tumblr media
my roommate is a gumiho. i loved this one, crazy fantasy concept and all i love it. we got woo-yeo our ‘sir’ a 999 year old gumiho, who thinks he collects human energy in hopes of becoming a human in the future. he meets lee dam our girl who is at university studying history. she stumbles upon him literally and comes to behold one of the beads, that woo-yeo let slip. and that is how they came to live together so he can protect the bead. along the way they fall in love and of course in drama fashion everything works out even beating red ties of fate trying to divide them. i loved it, and loved seeing jang ki-yong in this stoic yet quirky role alongside our queen hyeri. side note the cast was stunning: we got kang han-na and kim do-wan from ‘start up’ in completely different roles falling in love in this drama. i love it! i rate it a 9.5 out of 10
