Daniel Humphrey, Professional Yearner: A Playlist

Here it is folks, my fandom magnum opus. There is truly nothing I love more than going through my music library and projecting all over it.

Here is the link to the youtube playlist

Track listings and color commentary under the cut.

We Shall Not Overcome - Frank Turner the thesis of hipster boi from Brooklyn

Because the bands I like / They don't sell too many records / And the girls I like, / They don't kiss too many boys / Books I read will never be bestsellers, / But come on fellows at least we made our choice

Next Up Forever - AJR ah, yes, the Gifted Kid anthem. Major Inside arc vibes

I wanna be next up forever / Find a way to never hit my peak

Crashin' - Jack's Mannequin self-described by the songwriter as a "fuck you writer's block!" song

And even if your voice comes back again / Maybe there'll be no one listening

Crimson and Clover - Tommy James & The Shondells I'll give you three guesses as to what scene this song is about.

Ah, now I don't hardly know her / But I think I could love her

Tumbling Dice - The Rolling Stones as long as this is a place to share my Daniel headcanons (of course it is, this is my tumblr!), this is one of the first things baby Dan learns to play on guitar. this and Tim Buckley. guitarist!dan my beloved.

Say now baby, I'm the rank outsider / You can be my partner in crime

Talk - Hozier It's that vibe of "I am very very into you, so I am overcompensating with intellectualism" while still being heartwrenchingly sincere and these LYRICS. I have to share the whole verse. i have to.

I'd be the voice that urged Orpheus / When her body was found / I'd be the choiceless hoping grief / That drove him underground / I'd be the dreadful need in the devotee / That made him turn around / And I'd be the immediate forgiveness/ In Eurydice / Imagine being loved by me

Dark Blue - Jack's Mannequin we are in the Derena chapter of first love where everything is beautiful and overwhelming and maybe it hurts but in like, a Good way.

Dark blue, dark blue / Have you ever been alone in a crowded room / When I'm here with you?

Can't Take My Eyes Off of You (I Love You Baby) - Ms. Lauryn Hill nothing you can say will convince me that Vanessa DIDN'T get Dan into Ms. Lauryn Hill. Cotillion Vibes.

You'd be like heaven to touch / I wanna hold you so much

Butterflies - Samsa this whole song is just so delightful. and it fuels many a highschool derena hc for me

And I’m not a glass half full kinda guy / Shipwrecked, flags half-mast hull kinda guy

gold rush - tswift this may be a hot take, but this is a daniel song for me, namely, bc of the lyric below.

I don't like that falling feels like flying till the bone crush...My mind turns your life into folklore / I can't dare to dream about you anymore

Brooklyn, You're Killing Me - Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness I had to. also this has that like, summer before senior year vibe in s2

My hand is a braindead magnet / So I keep waking up on fire / Beneath this low rise second city / That's turning good men into liars

Lights - Journey that scene of Dan and Vanessa on the rooftop? yeah.

So you think you're lonely / Well, my friend, I'm lonely too

All I Want - Walk the Moon *john mulaney voice* I think Dan Humphrey is a Bisexual.

Maybe if I went out less on the weekend / Maybe if I just didn't exist / Maybe if I was straight, maybe if I was vegan / Maybe if I still had you to kiss

Hold of Me - Dean Lewis we're really getting into the peak of pining!Dan. aka, 4b/5a Dan.

Then you said, "I need nothing from nobody" / I can see it on your face you're hurting, grab a hold of me

If You Ever Want To Be in Love - James Bay Wanted to ask if we could have been / But my tongue wouldn't break the seal

Bring It On - The Gaslight Anthem "It wouldn't to me."

Rock & Roll Romance - Frank Turner You and I could have a rock ‘n’ roll romance... / .... Leave all the loveless lonely behind

Biloxi Parish - The Gaslight Anthem I will eventually haunt you or you'll eventually be my queen / And I'll be with you through the dark / So that you do not go through the dark alone

Do I Wanna Know? - Arctic Monkeys Big Dylan/Claire staircase sex energy here

Maybe I'm too / Busy bein' yours / To fall for somebody new

Moon Song - Phoebe Bridgers Thee song for 5x10 & 5x11. And like—the Eric Clapton AND Jimmy Stewart references????? Makes me go Feral every time.

You couldn’t have / Stuck your tongue down the throat of somebody / Who loves you more

You are sick and you’re married / And you might be dying / But you’re holding me like water in your hands

Blue - Joni Mitchell "I've tried to make it go away, but how do you kill a feeling?"

You know I've been to sea before / Crown and anchor me / Or let me sail away

I've Told You Now - Sam Smith "I don't want to be your friend, Blair. I want more. I want you."

You know what I mean / It's like walking in the heat all day with no water

Jackie and Wilson [Live in America] - Hozier I like this live version better because there's this excited, giddy kind of energy in how mr. hozier plays it live that I think is very Dan.exe has stopped working (end of 517 and beginning of 518)

'Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done / I need to be youthfully felt 'cause, God, I never felt young

Cosmic Love [Unplugged] - Florence + the Machine the fact that they had Florence on the show and used her as background noise for b*n d*n*v*n is a CRIME. anyway this poetry is so Dan

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes

Good Feeling - Violent Femmes Won't you stay with me / Just a little longer? / It always seems like you're leaving

If You Don’t Wanna Love Me - James Morrison You can’t push me too far / There’s no space in my heart / Where I don’t wanna love you

I’m Ready - Jack’s Mannequin the song for Daniel Humphrey, self-saboteur

Get Hurt - The Gaslight Anthem Have you come here to get her? / Have you come to take her away from me?

And maybe you needed a change or maybe I was in the way

Lover, You Should've Come Over - Jeff Buckley nothing makes me feel like this bridge does.

My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder... / All my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her... / All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter... / She's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever

Fool for Love - Lord Huron I was born to lose 'cause I’m a fool for love

Silver Springs - Fleetwood Mac I couldn't make this without at least one spiteful season 6 Dan song. like. I MEAN:

You'll never get away from the sound / Of the [one] that loved you

Broken Heart - Motion City Soundtrack this song is a nod to scorned Dan turning evil in s6

I'll devise the best disguise / A brand new look and take them by surprise / They'll never guess what's not inside

Chaos and Clothes - Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit Lovers leave chaos and clothes / In quiet corners where you rarely ever go / One day you find proof she was real /Despite your struggle to forget

Never Going Back Again - Fleetwood Mac She broke down and let me in / Made me see where I'd been

Writer in the Dark - Lorde added at a rec from an anon because they absolutely right

I am my mother’s child, I’ll love you ‘til my breathing stops

Even If it Kills Me - Motion City Soundtrack I'm really not as stubborn as I seem / Said the knuckle to the concrete

Like a River Runs - Bleachers And I've played the victim for a long long time / And I wanna grow up / From the rhythm of a young, from the rhythm of a younger heart / It leads just like a river runs

Surrender - Walk the Moon And tell me how it ends / I'd do it all again / For one more minute / One more night

Halloween - The Gaslight Anthem how to not paste ALL the lyrics to this song? It’s Dan Humphrey, scourge of high society, and Yearning, and locking eyes across the crowded room, and just…these lyrics make me insane.

And I hate these things but I always attend / A little sip of something to take off the edge / And I make my way through the ghosts in the room / Trying to crack a smile

I think I saw you for the flash of a moment / Your broken heart and the body that holds it … I’ve never been right, have you ever been lied to? / I think I just saw the same scars upon you

Hostage - Jack's Mannequin I don't want your ransom / Just say you'll never leave

Let Your Heart Hold Fast - Fort Atlantic To believe I walk alone / Is a lie that I've been told

Love, it will not betray you / Dismay or enslave you, it will set you free / Be more like the man you were made to be

Umpqua Rushing - Blind Pilot another recommendation from anon. It SO fits.

I’ve been a forest burning no direction / I tried to hold you, I tried everything but running

Graceland Too - Phoebe Bridgers I would do anything, I would do anything / Whatever you want me to do, I will do / Whatever she wants

Baby Talk - Mick Flannery feat. SON Real is in the feeling, baby / Nearer then to thee

Heart heavy in the wind / Blown back to you again

You're True - Eddie Vedder Nothing ever goes my way / But with you here, that all will have changed

Etta James - Brian Fallon Now Etta James, hit that symphony / 'Cause she drifts through my blood like a remedy... / Like Etta said, my love has come along

Rainy Girl - Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness obligatory dilf!dan song!!!!

Sometimes when I'm falling in my dreams / I can feel you falling next to me / I guess we're going everywhere together

Kathy's Song - Simon & Garfunkel I know that I am like the rain / There but for the grace of you go I

Persephone in “Persephone The Grateful” (Goddess Girls)

Here’s a blast from the past for me! I think my first ever Persephone Project post was about the first two Goddess Girls books featuring Persephone, although admittedly, I didn’t do much analysis on those. There’s not much to analyze with these late elementary chapter books but they are fun. The first one, “Persephone The Phony,” was about Persephone and Hades meeting and the second, “Persephone The Daring,” was a retelling of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth. 

From the cover of this one I knew it would be about the Minthe myth, but it was actually a combination of both that and the Pirithous myth. Basically, it’s Persephone and Hades both deal with unwanted crushes.

At the very beginning Hades introduces Persephone to Minthe and she gets a vibe that the girl is crushing on her crush. Then we go back to Mount Olympus Academy and find that there is going to be a competition where the kids will have to travel around to four different locations with clues on scrolls. Persephone ends up with Theseus and Pirithous on her team, mortals who are just staying at the academy for a while to visit Theseus’ cousin, Hercules. Pirithous immediately starts flirting with Persephone, and she’s not into it even though she’s cool with him as a person.

The last location in the competition is the River Cocytus where Minthe appears angry to hear Seph dissing her smelly river and starts talking about how she’s better and prettier than her. Seph’s team mate, Antheia, jumps to Seph’s defense with a savage take down and Minthe retaliates by trying to drag her into the river. To save Antheia, Persephone turns Minthe into mint. She also spends a little time agonizing over whether she did it purely to save her friend or because she was jealous.

Meanwhile, Theseus and Pirithous have fully ignored the warnings about mortals not entering the Underworld and have gotten themselves glued to the Chair of Forgetfulness, which in this case is a bench by the River Lethe. Hades lets Hercules (who has arrived with his team) come in and pull them off while he and Seph go to restore Minthe. Seph at this point has learned a lesson about trying to see things from other’s perspectives and feeling bad for Minthe, asks her where she would rather live. Minthe picks the fountain at the Academy and the book wraps up with her getting a reciprocated crush on one of the bully characters. Also, Pirithous was cheating during the competition so screw that guy.

Overall, this is a pretty good attempt at smoothing over the non-kid friendly aspects of the two myths. Ultimately, the Pirithous myth is not much changed in spirit. Instead of going into the Underworld to try to kidnap Persephone, he still has a crush on her but is a bad dude for other reasons. The changes to the Minthe myth definitely cast Seph in a more forgiving light by motivating her with more than just jealousy, but it also sheds light on the fact that she might have overreacted because of jealousy.

Good work, people! Although shame to the editor(s) of this book. I found like six errors and I wasn’t trying to.

Soo... in the crushing stage, what would the ROs do if they found themselves in a "oh no there is only one bed" situation? *wiggles eyebrows*

And i hope you forgive me if i end up flooding inbox with asks

Oh nooo, only one bed, what to dooooo??

(Also you are MORE than forgiven, I see that Hades icon and I LOVE IT, EURYDICE HAS MY HEART!)

Alexia - Wouldn’t understand why only one bed is an issue and just squishes onto it with the MC and completely misses the point. MC may wake up with her snuggling them. 

Ren - Flushes deeply, goes immediately to the farthest corner and claims it has his and insists that the MC take the only bed and no, no, if you try to argue, he’s just going to pop out of existence and then you’ll never find him (hint: he’s probably on the roof, it’s the easiest out of the way place to teleport to)

Calla - Sees the bed. Looks at the bed. Sits on the bed. Stretches out on the bed. Makes a suggestive joke. And then, if she gets the right vibes and the MC consents, seduces the MC.

Mel - Insists the MC take the bed and that he doesn’t need to rest, he was planning on staying awake anyway, he has things to do, and besides, if they’re crammed into a room with only one bed, chances are they’re up to something dangerous and people may be following them and they’ve bitten off more than they can handle and someone needs to keep watch, right? 

Bonus Aeran (under a cut for a reason, if you clicked I’m not responsible for any tears):

Waits as long as possible with growing tension before admitting his feelings, possibly consummating the relationship, and then fucking everything up with the MC because of underlying trust issues and he’s having trouble processing his trauma.

Hiiiiii I’m back, Awful Sound (Oh Eurydice) and It’s Never Over (Hey Orpheus) by Arcade Fire!!!!!!! As you can probably tell by the song titles, there’s a LOT of destielish content. They really are the greatest love story ever told.

Hello!!! omg okay so I compiled all of urs into this one post (I hope that’s okay, i love them as always)

starting with this one though because. the eurydice and orpheus vibes will never cease to be perfect and also: painful

Just take all your pain, just put it on me So that you can breathe When you fly away will you hit the ground? It's an awful sound I know there's a way, we can make them pay 

Think it over and say, "I'm never going back again" I know there's a way, we can leave today Think it over and say, "I'm never going back again"

&

And if I shout for you Never doubt Don't turn around too soon Just wait until it's over Wait until it's through 

It seems so important now But you will get over It seems so important now But you will get over And when you get over When you get older Then you will remember Why it was so important then

ugh I’ve been in my s8 feelings recently too :( mutually self-sacrificial idiots who are SO in love UGH 

(rest under the cut)

Arcade Fire is one of those bands that just like. consumes me, listening to Arcade Fire is an activity by itself the only thing I can do is stare straight at the ceiling and all of their songs have such strong energy 

The king's taken back the throne The useless seed is sown When they say they're cutting off the phone I'll tell 'em you're not home 

No place to hide  You were fighting as a soldier on their side You're still a soldier in your mind Though nothing's on the line 

I know no matter what you say There are some debts you'll never pay 

Working for the church While your family dies You take what they give you And you keep it inside Every spark of friendship and love Will die without a home Hear the soldier groan, "We'll go at it alone" 

s4-s5 cas omg....soldier!cas who isn’t sure what he’s fighting for....still loyal to heaven but not to the people who lead it....into s6 where in his desperate attempt to save Heaven from Raphael he does irreparable damage..............i love this so much

okokok continuing w/ Arcade Fire first (has anyone informed them that they keep writing Supernatural songs bc I think they should know)

Dear God, would you send me a child? Oh God, would you send me a child? 'Cause I wanna put it up on the TV screen So the world can see what your true word means Lord, would you just send me a sign? 'Cause I just gotta know if I'm wasting my time! Now the war is won How come nothing tastes good? You're such a sensitive child! Oh, you're such a sensitive child! I know you're tired but it's alright I just need you to sing for me tonight You're gonna have your day in the sun; You know God loves the sensitive ones

obviously anything that has religious themes immediately screams “supernatural” to me but the themes of a father exploiting his kid for fame (i think literally televangelist fame...? the internet says it’s about joe and jessica simpson?) has v unsavory “john forcing his kids to hunt/dean to be a parent while being convinced it was the right thing to do” vibes

Waiting For the Snow:

I used to make mountains But then they grew bigger than me I thought that I'd climb my way up high But what if I tumble?

Have I said too much? Did I love too hard? This steel can't carry me, now that things are rough I used to make mountains But then they grew bigger than me And I used to hunger So what can you offer me When you are all symphony What can you offer me 

Now, what can you offer me? (Wherever you are) This steel can't carry me (Wherever you are) And you can't carry me, carry me

🥺😭 hi okay now I’m thinking about s9 human!cas and just. crying like--he didn’t know what he’d done his family just kicks him out and he used to be an angelic celestial being who is suddenly alone in this tiny frail body now and nobody can REALLY help him because nobody understands and the only people (one person lbr) he thought maybe could have abandoned him 

It’s been so long and I still can’t think about s9 human!cas without crying like that’s traumatic and he had 0 support!!! 0!!! i love dean with my whole heart but I will absolutely NEVER forgive him for like. never explaining to Cas why he had to leave (Cas would have understood) or renting him a few weeks at a motel or giving him a hacked credit card or even buying him a damn toothbrush

JOHN KEATS. the lavender in sunsets / flowers in the rain / sunlight slipping through clouds / lazy summer afternoons / the heavy scent of musk / flickering candlelight reflecting off the gold titles of books / fireflies on a cool summer night / being wrapped in fresh bed sheets / the ache of wanting what you can never have / dripping sunlight like gold / loving someone so exquisite / soft lips & soft whispers / fingers through hair / names of lovers carved in trees / broken glass / the insistence of being perpetually dreamy.

F. SCOTT FITZGERALD. crisp winter skies with cold bright stars / mahogany wood / the solitude of an early autumn morning wrapped in fog / empty bottles on stacks & stacks of books haphazardly placed in a messy room / bruised arms reaching out into the darkness / cigarette smoke just barely hiding the scent of alcohol / a wall of books all poetry & old & weathered / a bad thunderstorm occurring at the end of a beautiful day / the way tragedy strikes in your heart but ends up stopping your breathing for a moment / your favorite sweater / parties spilling into four a.m. with the stars above spinning & dancing / the contrast of blood against snow / a purple split lip oozing blood / black eyes fading to blue to pale skin / the butterflies of falling in love for the first time / the statues falling apart over time in cemeteries / the romanticization of self-destruction.

FRANZ KAFKA. the weight of dread that sits heavily in your stomach when thinking about the future / decrepit houses cloaked in mystery from children telling stories of people who died there / the way not even light can escape a black hole / the rich smell of old books / delicate veins in the wrist / ghosts filling lungs / shattered bones / raindrops on the tongue / rusting metal / nostalgia that aches / the way hope feels like a plastic bag over your head.

H.P. LOVECRAFT. the anxiety felt when staring into an unknown cave / pouring rain & mud / a child’s fear of the dark / thinking so many questions about your existence as you stare at the vast expanse of never-ending ocean / the silence of three a.m. / ouija boards & urban legends.

JACK KEROUAC. the brisk pine air of being on a mountain / travels without a destination / those nights where you’re missing three hours of memory / screaming to a lifeless desert about how you’re so alive / coffee shops late at night / car rides at night spent speeding & laughing in the dark / naps spent in the sun / novels highlighted & underlined with notes & epiphanies in the margins / the way uncertainty sits on the shoulders / ignoring flaws & loving life / wind through hair / depression as fog in the brain / impossible ideals / a quiet sunrise / walks alone / when you think about trying to discover all the secrets to the universe / dazzling people / open lands stretching out into infinity / falling in love with being alive.

EDGAR ALLAN POE. the ocean’s horizon inseparable from fog / hollow bones / a preserved heart held in hands / twinkling stars above an old graveyard / the way everything turns to dust / silent black birds with eyes full of wisdom / self-inflicted flames / perfection depicted as a rotting corpse / death as bricks in the heart / lips barely brushing against each other / glassy glazed eyes / biting into a lemon / heart-shaped bruises / rotting flowers on a grave / dried blood & spilled liquor / the hush of dusk when it begins raining / the intimacy of a secret.
