Kimya Dawson - Tumblr Posts
When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky
And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny
In the grand scheme of things and sometimes this terrifies me
how embarrassing is it that ive been listening to (and occasionally adding to) the same "mid-west emo" spotify playlist since i was 11 like wdym it never changes and i retreat back to the safety of McCafferty and the front bottoms and Bo Burham every mfing year

I like to sleep, write, color, fashion, play video games, play violin, and read. I wrote one Fanfic of my husband Arven and i'm working on another one but idk if I'm ever going to finish it. But I do write a lot and I will put my Ao3 under here once I put more stories on it.

TLDR; i hate those type of indie music enjoyers
the title is self explanatory. i hate the indie music listeners who say the band was so much better when they had less listeners. and we all know they don't actually think they're bad now, they just lost their novelty because now the person can't say that some unknown indie artist is their favorite and then be able to shit on someone because they listen to pop.
reason 1, they automatically hate them if they get famous because of a tiktok trend or some shit like that. "tiktok ruins songs!!!!1!!!!" it really doesn't, but if you want to think that, its okay. i know a lot of people when they say this are referring to how a certain song from that artist gets overplayed and annoying, kind of like the radio when they play a popular song too much. but then there are those people who only say this because of the fact they think tiktok is stupid or dumb. you're allowed to not like a social media platform, but please for the love of god, don't let that impact whether or not you like a song. if you like a song, you like a song. that is that. you are going to see this a lot, but kimya dawson said it the absolute best when she sang, "and the music, it doesn't change. no, the songs remain the same. whether there are zero people or there are a zillion people in the world who are listening"
reason 2, thinking you're more important because you're an og listener. i think kimya dawson said it best (again) when she said, "i don't claim to be regina's only true fan just because I knew her way back when" in this, she's saying just because she knew regina spektor way before she got big, doesn't mean she's a better fan. actually, a lot of the time i think the artist would dislike it if they saw someone who claimed to be a true fan being rude to new fans because they think they're better for some bullshit reason.
reason 3, gatekeeping. nobody cares that the artist is small therefore you won't say what the song is because you don't want a bigger fanbase to ruin the artist and influence the music they make. more often then not, you are preventing an artist from growing and being able to supply more than the 20 spotify listeners they have. you are preventing someone from growing and making the money they need to live a sustainable life, so shut up, drop your dignity or the remaining shreds, and tell us the song name because no one gives a flying fuck on a rectangular prism traveling 100 miles per hour towards the moon that you are listening to an unknown small artist. again, kimya dawson fucking rocks and got the idea of being able to share an artist without being angry, "wanting that all to myself would be totally lame (lame!)"
in all, i hate those small artist listeners who refuse to share the people they listen to. you're not different for listening to someone small. lots of people do. dont be such a dick and just tell us the song. and since i dont gatekeep, the song i got these lyrics from is zero or a zillion by kimya dawson.
