Nothing in the world is mine for free (their love for me) but my love mine, all mine, all mine (my love for them)
i reached my peak in media analysis when i and every other army was scrambling to analyze the hyyh era music videos
cigarettes after sex fans freaking out when they put out a new song that sounds exactly like the rest of their discography with yet another random b&w photo as the album cover
The irony of listening to a song criticising academically rigorous universities and the pressure they and society put on students while studying for my exams at an academically rigorous university🗿
“If you’re so very entertaining, then why are you on your own tonight” from MORRISSEY?? god what a slap in the face
Mitski writing Nobody about her time in Kuala Lumpur is so personal to me
“We live the same life. And have to become number one”
“A good house, a good car, will these things bring happiness? In Seoul to the SKY (korea’s top three universities), would your parents be happy?”
“It's either number one or a failure”
“Adults tell me that hardships are only momentary. To endure a little more, to do it later”
“Outside, there are so many kids like me, living the life of a puppet. Who will take responsibility?”

There are certain mitski songs and lyrics that everyone who likes her music seem to relate to and I do too but these ones?? me. em coded:
“You say you love me. I believe you do. But I walk down and up and down this street. ‘Cause you just don’t like me. Not like you used to” — That’s Our Lamp
“And if I break, could I go on break? Be back in my room, writin’ speeches in my head. Listenin’ to the thousand hands clapping me in the dark” — When Memories Snow
Literally ALL of I’m Your Man (I think this is the most relatable song of hers to me - rn at least)
Literally all of Why Didn’t You Stop Me
“‘Cause I need somebody to remember my name. After all that I can do for them is done. I need someone to remember me. I need something bigger than the sky. Hold it in my arms and know it’s mine. Just how many stars will I need to hang around me. To finally call it heaven?” — Remember My Name
“Just don’t leave me alone. Wondering where you are. I’m stronger than you give me credit for” — I Don’t Smoke
shoji meguro I owe everything to u🙏🙏🙏

swimming at night while listening to beach house, slowdive, & cocteau twins is peak actually

SO MANY MUSIC THOUGHTS. I really just want to do a full deep dive into currents by tame impala, what a masterpiece of an album fr, one of my favs oat (yk what I actually technically wrote an article abt it before but it was just basic stuff not lyrics or anything). And since I’m talking about albums, laurel hell by mitski and why it’s underrated and honestly just the trajectory of her entire discography- how I’ve seemed to heal with her yk? (parasocial of me ik). The song labyrinth by mondo grosso being just perfect and the mv being one of my favs. And I just wrote smth abt lost lamb from the catherine full body soundtrack, a song that’s been there for me for ages, god I love some simple piano with a beat.
currents by tame impala is THE album for transitional periods, literally every song hits. everything lost, everything rebuilt
