I Really Enjoy Talking About Myself Wheeze Lol - Tumblr Posts

1, 5, and 9 for the music asks

who is the first artist you remember loving?

ok, i am kind of embarrassed by this one, but it makes sense for a grade school-junior high girl: Owl City (if you know his song fireflies, it was a semi-big hit for a while)

i think he is a decent artist, but mostly i can't listen to his stuff anymore partly bc of mild cringe feelings from that time in my life partly bc of some trauma as well ahaha

occasionally some of his stuff will get stuck in my head though and it's not always unwelcome so

5. which song always puts a smile on your face?

oo this one's hard...

top contenders maybe.. (in no particular order)

the sun and the rain by madness

roundabout by yes (on a kick with this one lately)

songs from souvenir by eric johnson (forever yours, i'm finding you, virginia)

from tones by EJ again (emerald eyes, bristol shore, victory)

songs on machine head by deep purple (the opening guitar on maybe i'm a leo!!, pictures of home, lazy)

9. which artist has been the most life changing for you?

augh another hard question!! you are asking all the hard ones lol

owl city is a strong contender for this one to probably if i'm being honest lol

but i really wanna say... maybe eric johnson?

like i've always loved his stuff growing up, but the start of my senior year of high school i just had an epiphany like,,, I too, could learn to play the guitar???? and play songs like him??? i mean obvs he's like a prodigy etc so i either will never play like him or won't be able to for like 30 years or whatever lol

but i think the inspiration that came to me from his music, to want to learn to play has been something special for me these last few years and i hope to continue to pursue my dream! (sounds corny but fr)
