Det blir alltid värre framåt natten   /   But it always gets worse towards the night Långt från alla ljusen, alla skratten   /   Far away from all the lights and all the laughter Ligger vaken, tänker på dig  /  I lie awake, thinking about you Minns för mycket och är ensam /  Remembering too much, feeling lonely [x]

Det Blir Alltid Värre Framåt Natten, Björn Skifs | Sweden, Eurovision Song Contest Concours Eurovision de la Chanson 1978

Last song: Michelangelo by Bjorn Skifs 'cause I recently watched Clark and I love these ABBA' s vibes in the summer

Currently watching: Cruel Summer, a pretty shallow crime TV show on Prime because I don't feel like thinking

Currently reading: La recherche by Marcel Proust because I had to, I just started the second book and I am really enjoying it (in the meanwhile I read something else because I can't spend six months on a single thing, lol, just finished Canne al vento)

Current obsession: I will never stop to be obsessed by skam Italia so I'm basically mourning, last recent things that moved me are The song of Achilles and Le otto montagne. And i consume a huge daily dose of French bulldogs videos for serotonin purposes!

The Masked Singer: S10 E6 (One Hit Wonder Night) Running Commentary

There wasn’t an episode last week because Fox was airing the World Series. (BTW, congratulations to the Texas Rangers on winning their first World Series championship.)

This week four new masks are joining the competition. As always, I post before seeing any unmaskings, so don’t take these as spoilers.

Donut 🍩: The judge immediately remarked on his height, so he might be an athlete. A lot of references to the Wild West and country music. He said he was part of a “megahit” that catapulted him to number 1. We also saw a police bridge, and he’s been around the theater. He said he just had the toughest year of his life. He actually does sound a lot like Bjorn Skifs (the lead singer of Blue Swede, whose song “Hooked on a Feeling” Donut is singing tonight), but I don’t think the judges would know who Bjorn Skifs is, just Blue Swede. My mind is kind of leaning towards the original RoboCop, Peter Weller (who is also an academic in addition to his acting career). The bonus clue: “How Bizarre” by OMC. He says he’s had “hit after hit”. I think Ken’s guess of Jeff Bridges is the most plausible, actually. Jeff Bridges has been in a bunch of hit movies and has a brother named Beau (the bow and arrow clue). As for the country and western clues, he won an Oscar playing a country singer in CrazyHeart (where he did his own singing) and was nominated for Oscars for his performances in The Last Picture Show (which is set in a dying Texas town), the remake of True Grit (set in the Old West) and Hell or High Water (which is a neo-Western film). I’m going with Jeff Bridges for now.

Hibiscus 🌺: Grew up in a large family. We see a gingerbread house, has interacted with Sharon Stone, David Bowie, and Elton John. Has married multiple times. She mentioned a “stint in a hospital”, which means she either had a prior medical career or possibly was on General Hospital, E.R., or Grey’s Anatomy. Bonus clue: “I’m Too Sexy” by Right Said Fred. She says she’s competed in beauty pageants and worn a tiara. I’m a bit stumped here, but I’m leaning towards Kim Zolciak only because she’s attempted a singing career.

Anteater 🐜 😋: I saw some online speculation that this could be John Oates from Hall & Oates, but let’s see the clues first. He’s had a long career. Saw a cougar roaring at him. Went through a dark time and moved onto a farm. We see an eye on a box. Just from the voice alone, this does kind of line up with John Oates. Bonus clue: “Somebody’s Watching Me” by Rockwell. He says he sang in front of 40% of the entire world. My first thought went to Live Aid, and I think Hall & Oates played that show. (Double checked, they did indeed play the Philadelphia part of the event.) But it’s the voice more than anything else. Oates doesn’t sing a lot of lead vocals with Hall & Oates (Daryl Hall primarily fills that role), but if you’ve ever listened to “She’s Gone”, you can hear John pretty prominently in that song singing the lower melody and there’s a rasp that was there in 1973 (when the song was originally released) and I can still hear it in Anteater’s voice.

Candelabra 🕯️: Seen calling Kevin Hart. She began her career at age 12. We see a butterfly 🦋 which means she could have a connection to Michelle Williams from Destiny’s Child. Well, Kelly Rowland has been performing since she was a tween, being a part of Girls Tyme with Beyoncé (which was a forerunner to Destiny’s Child). And of course, she and Beyoncé were bandmates with Michelle Williams. But…we see the state of California, and Destiny’s Child is from Texas. The bonus clue: “Two Princes” by Spin Doctors. “Who needs two princes when you have one Fire Princess?” Nicole’s guess of Brandy is a good one, and Brandy is from California. I’m going to officially say I’m stumped on this one. But I have a feeling she won’t be unmasked tonight.

tightrope - the greatest showman ~ “ some people long for a life that is simple and planned, tied with a ribbon. some people won’t sail the sea cause they’re safer on land to follow what’s written but i’d follow you to the great unknown, off to a world we call our own. ” 

hey - liana flores ~ “  dear, you're full of fear. and i am a little too, but i’m also full of you long as you’re here. ” 

times are hard for dreamers - ameile ~  “  they say times are hard for dreamers and who knows? maybe they are people seem stuck or lost at sea and i might be a dreamer but it's gotten me this far and that is far enough for me. ”

two - sleeping at last ~ “  I know exactly how the rule goes, Put my mask on first. No, I don't want to talk about myself. Tell me where it hurts, I just want to build you up, build you up Till you're good as new And maybe one day I will get around to fixing myself too. ”
