A Pirate's Life for Me Chapter 3

Summary: Captain Bucky Barnes and his crew on the Armored Star are the most fearsome pirates in the known world. They’ve given the British fleet a run for their money as they try to free the enslaved and take from the rich, but they could have never guessed how the British empire would retaliate against them. When a new pirate ship appears and lays waste to all in its path, will Bucky and his crew be ready for the wrath of a woman scorned?

Warnings: piracy, pillaging, sexual assault, death/murder, blood/gore, violence, smut

*manbo: voodoo priestess

Previous chapter Next chapter

The Armored Star sailed along another shipwreck. It was the third British ship they’d come across in the last week. The charred remains of the ship were sticking up from out of the sea, some parts of it still on fire and smoking. It looked like the ship had been torn in half, and British sailors’ bodies were scattered along the ship and out into the water, staining it red as sharks circled.

“How the hell?” Steve, Bucky’s first mate, breathed as they stared at the two halves of the ship.

“Multiple guns? A double attack on either side?” his second mate, Sam, ventured a guess.

Bucky narrowed his eyes at the splintered wood that had what looked like claw marks etched into the planks before they ripped. “Whatever it was, let’s steer clear,” he said, moving back to the wheel and steering them away.

The crew watched on in curiosity and worry as they headed further away from the watery grave. As they made it into deep sea territory their barrelman, Peter, called down to Bucky. “Captain! A ship following us sir!”

Bucky looked up at him in confusion then looked behind, back from there they’d come. The ship was still a long way off, but the fact that they were following them wasn’t a good sign. “How long?” he yelled back up at Peter.

“At least the last mile,” Peter said. “I had to make sure they were actually following us.”

Bucky took out his spyglass and walked to the furthest point of the helm, bringing the glass up to his eye and looking at the ship. Steve walked up next to him as Bucky stared for a long while. “Emerald hull with a mermaid figurehead,” he said under his breath to Steve. “I believe we’ve finally run across Dido’s Lament.”

Steve hummed. “Well, they’ll have a hard time catching up to the Star, sir.”

“Either way, keep an eye on them,” Bucky said, giving Steve the spyglass. “From what I’ve heard they only attack the British, but let’s be wary if we’re the ones they choose to change their minds about.” He turned to the crew who was waiting down below for instructions. “Ready the cannons! Stock the guns! Arm yourselves! We don’t know what we could be facing if they catch up!” The crew immediately sprang into action getting everything ready. He felt an anxious pull in his gut, but tried to ignore it. Surely Dido’s Lament wouldn’t catch up to them quickly. They still had the wind on their side, and the sun was setting, so they could change course in darkness if need be.

Hours later Peter had lost sight of the ship as night fell, and Bucky felt they were in a good place to change course, heading further north than they normally would. They usually tried to steer clear of Barataria Bay, but he wanted to make sure they lost the ship. Not everyone knew where Barataria Bay even was with how small it had been, and now it was a mere ink blot on the map. In the early morning hours as the sun arose over the horizon Peter couldn’t find any trace of the ship, and Bucky thought they were safe, until he heard an eerie creaking sound.

“Is that us?” Steve asked, looking down at the ship.

“No,” Sam said, looking around. The entire crew was baffled, looking around themselves. A few of them looked over the railing, down at the water.

“It’s…coming from beneath us,” Steve said, looking at Bucky in shock.

Before Bucky could say anything there was a rumble that made the entire ship vibrate and shake, then a huge swell of water surged high in the air next to them, dousing the Armored Star and everyone on it. It knocked the ship sideways, Bucky gripping the wheel as the ship righted itself before toppling over. He looked to where the swell came from and his eyes widened, his mouth falling agape. It was Dido’s Lament emerging from the depths of the sea, the ship twice as large as the Armored Star. At the front the mermaid figurehead he saw wasn’t a mermaid but a siren, her upper body looking like it was going to spring from the ship, her long taloned hands outstretched and her mouth open wide, with sharp teeth and angry, menacing features. As water poured from the emerald green hull a lone figure appeared at the helm, staring across the short distance of water at them.

Bucky’s eyes narrowed at the figure that climbed up onto the railing, holding onto a rope as they peered back at him. The figure started singing:

“The king and his men stole the queen from her bed…”

Bucky ran to the side of the ship when he heard the voice. It couldn’t be. The figure had their head down, their hat and hair covering them.

“And bound her in her bones…the seas be ours and by the powers, where we will, we’ll roam.”

The figure looked up and showed their face, making Bucky gasp. It was Y/N. Multiple other people started to show up along Dido’s Lament’s side railing, and Bucky recognized them as the crew member’s wives and lovers they all thought long dead. Steve let out a pained cry when he saw his wife, Peggy, the other crew member’s starting to call out to them.

“This can’t be real,” Steve said, running his hands through his hair.

All the women started singing:

“Yo ho, all hands, hoist the colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars, never shall we die!”

As they finished the phrase their voices got louder until they were screaming, and another swell of water arose from the depths. Bucky covered his head as it doused the Star again, then he felt a hard smack to the side of his body. He went flying back into the helm, looking up to find an actual siren crawling its way toward him. She looked just like the figurehead on Dido’s Lament and he scrambled back, grasping his sword and standing as she reached him. He tried to swipe the blade at her, but she merely dodged it then grabbed his hand and twisted it, making him cry out and drop the sword. There were shouts and sounds of swords falling to the ground, a few guns going off with accompanying screams that were unearthly. The siren he was facing forced Bucky to his knees, her long tail wrapping around his lower half so he couldn’t move, wrenching his arms behind his back with an iron hold. Bucky looked around as best he could to see his other crew members either fighting or being forced into the same position with a swarm of sirens flopping around the deck, their otherworldly hisses and noises filling the air as they overtook them easily.

The siren holding him used one of her webbed hands to grasp at his jaw and make him look up as Y/N and her crew members boarded the Armored Star. Y/N slowly walked over to Bucky as the other women went and found their husbands and lovers amongst the crew members. She looked down at him, a look of pure disgust on her face that he’d never seen before. Her gaze left him to look at the siren. “Thank you, Mira,” she said, reaching a hand out and caressing the siren’s face. “Whoever doesn’t have a woman next to him, you may take.” She leaned over Bucky to the siren and nuzzled her nose on hers, the siren making a chittering noise in her throat before releasing her hold on Bucky. He fell forward on his hands as the siren moved away and spoke in a language he couldn’t understand to the other sirens aboard. They all spoke back to her then released the men they were holding except for seven of them, who they started dragging off the deck. The men screamed, begging for help before the sirens holding them launched themselves overboard, diving back down into the sea, the remaining sirens following them with strange laugh-like sounds.

Y/N suddenly kicked Bucky backwards, taking his gun and the knife he had hidden in his boot and throwing them as hard as she could overboard. The women on the deck followed her lead, then they all took their own guns and pointed them at their husbands. Y/N took out her gun and pointed it at Bucky’s face. “Hey Captain,” she sneered at him.

“Y/N,” he whispered, trying to reach for her. “My treasure–”

Y/N backhanded him with the gun, making him cry out and fall back. “Don’t call me that!” she yelled. “You lost your treasure the day you left!” She stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar and dragged him from the helm down the stairs to the deck, throwing him near the captain’s quarters. She was surprisingly strong and he felt like he was in some kind of weird fever dream. “Do you wanna know what happened after you left us?” she called out to all the men. They each had shocked faces as they stared at their wives holding them at gunpoint, glancing at each other and at Y/N and Bucky. “The British came two days after you left,” she said loudly, pacing back and forth as Bucky wiped at the blood falling from his brow where she struck him. “Just as I thought they would. Just as I TOLD YOU THEY WOULD!” she screamed in Bucky’s face, making him wince and cower before her.

“Y/N please,” he begged, trying to reach for her again. “We didn’t know. I didn’t know! The scouts checked–”

“SHUT UP!” she screamed. “Do you wanna know what they did to us when they came?” Bucky shook his head, afraid of what she was going to say. Y/N pointed at Peggy, who was already crying as she stared at Steve in pain.

“They raped us,” Peggy said loudly. Steve looked at her like she’d stabbed him, his face crumpling in sorrow. “They raped us…over and over again, for weeks. Said it was our punishment as lovers of pirates.”

“They killed the children!” another woman called out, pushing her gun against her husband’s forehead harshly. “All of them! Left their little mutilated bodies all over the village. I found our son in pieces! All your babies are DEAD!”

Bucky cried heavily as woman after woman recounted what happened those days after they left them behind. The British had tracked them without them knowing or realizing, the scouts somehow not seeing what Y/N had seen, and attacked their families as retribution for their piracy, then set the Bay ablaze, abandoning the remaining women. After they all said their piece, Y/N leaned down to Bucky, gripping his jaw tightly and shoving the gun against his temple as she got closer to his face. “You said you would never let anything happen to me,” she whispered, blinking back the tears building in her eyes.

“Y/N–”

“You said we were safe,” she grunted, shaking his face in her hand.

“Please–”

“You said we would be fine!” she yelled, slapping him hard across the face. Bucky’s head whipped to the side and he cried harder.

“I know I did, I thought you were safe,” he said, peering up at her pleadingly. “We came home and the Bay was in ruins. We thought you all died. We’ve been mourning you all for the last year!” He grasped the lower hem of her jacket. “Please, lovey, I’m so sorry! If I had known I would have never left–”

“I TOLD YOU!” Y/N shouted at him incredulously. “I begged you to believe me, and you just laughed.” She looked at the women around her. “He laughed!”

The women all started screaming, their sorrow, pain, anger, and grief manifesting as they each stared at the men in front of them. The men all winced, some of them covering their ears. The screams rivaled the noises from the sirens. It was the worst thing Bucky had ever heard.

“The sea heard our cries and answered the call for vengeance,” Y/N said. “The sirens came to us. And we have used our newfound power to sacrifice all those who hurt and killed us to them and the sea. You hurt us. You hurt me. Why should I give you, any of you, mercy?”

“You’re right, I didn’t believe you. I didn’t trust your judgment. And I’m sorry!” he cried. “Please, my love, have mercy on me, on all of us. I have suffered pain like I never could have imagined since we saw the Bay was destroyed. My guilt has been my punishment, and will forever be until I die. I told you I love you until worlds end,” he said. “And I meant every word. If today is my world's end, so be it. But please, don’t let this be it.”

The other men all echoed similar sentiments to their wives, pleading and crying with them for mercy. “Peg please,” Steve begged next to them, bending down and kissing her feet. “My sweet Peggy. Knowing you're alive is enough, and if you decide to punish me to death at sea, I will accept my fate. Just know I love you, and if you can forgive me, I will never leave your side again.” He started to slowly stand up, cupping her face in his hands.

Peggy paused as she looked up at him, her gun still pointed at him, but then her hand shook, and she sighed heavily before pointing it downward. “Steve,” she cried, and he quickly hugged her.

Y/N watched in disbelief and frustration as the other women around her all forgave. She looked down at Bucky, and he could see the war in her eyes. There was a deep anger and abandonment, but a hesitation in her full wrath and fury that he most rightfully deserved. Bucky held his hands up in surrender as he slowly stood. “My treasure,” he whispered, taking a step closer to her. She flinched, one foot stepping back and she raised her gun again, nudging it into his forehead. “I’m sorry,” he continued, and let his hands fall to his sides. “Whatever you choose, please know I love you…until worlds end, and beyond.”

Y/N started to cry, her hand holding the gun shaking. She shook her head, her teeth gritting as she glared at him. Peggy then came and stood behind her, then another woman, then another woman, then another, until a small group of her crew were surrounding her. Peggy slowly lifted her hand and gripped Y/N’s shoulder. “We’ve done what we set out to do. The sea helped us avenge ourselves. Now it’s time we heal,” Peggy whispered to her, leaning in and kissing the side of her head. “Come away dearest,” she said, glancing at the gun, “come away…”

Y/N started breathing heavily, shaking harder, until she screamed then dropped the gun at Bucky’s feet. She folded in on herself and Peggy and the other women caught her before she fell, helping her to sit on the deck as loud wails and choked cries fell from her mouth. As she clung to Peggy, Bucky kneeled before her, reaching a hand out and touching her knee. “Y/N,” he called to her. She peered up at him from where she’d buried her face in Peggy’s collar. He let go of her knee and held his hand out to her in offering. Y/N looked back and forth from his hand to his face, then looked up at Peggy, who nodded in encouragement at her. She looked back at him and slowly sat up, extending her hand out to him. He didn’t move, letting her take her time. She hesitated, still afraid and unsure, but took his hand. Bucky let out the breath he didn’t realize he was holding and smiled at her. “My treasure,” he said, his lips trembling as he kept crying. He leaned down and kissed her knuckles, and she stifled another loud cry. Bucky slowly started to stand and helped her stand up, the women around her getting up with them. He stepped closer, and this time she didn’t step away or flinch. She stared at him with a look of hurt and yearning.

He lifted his hands and cupped her face, watching her carefully. Y/N’s hands held his wrists tightly as he slowly leaned in so his forehead was pressed against her forehead. “I thought you were dead,” Bucky whispered.

“I did die that day,” Y/N whispered back. “I don’t know who was born in my place.”

Bucky smiled at her. “A pirate,” he answered her.

Y/N’s eyes flicked back and forth between his eyes, and a small smile started to grow on her face. “A pirate,” she repeated.

Another rumble came from the sea beneath them, and they all braced themselves. An ear-splitting horde of screams reverberated through the air as sirens surged from the depths to Dido’s Lament. They ripped at the ship, the splintering wood flying as they shredded it. Y/N walked to the side railing as the siren from earlier, Mira, looked back at her as Dido’s Lament cracked in half and started to sink, the torches on board breaking and setting fire to the parts still above water. Mira chittered at her, and Y/N chuckled a watery laugh and blew her a kiss. Mira tapped her chest then spoke to the sirens, and they all dove back into the sea, the ship humming under the pressure as the ocean bubbled and swallowed it whole. The pact was broken, the call of vengeance appeased.

Bucky joined Y/N at the railing, watching Dido’s Lament sink with her until he reached a hand out and caressed the side of her face. Y/N looked up at him, and they stared at each other for a moment as the sounds of sweet rendezvous behind them drowned out the unsettling sinking ship in front of them. Bucky’s other hand joined the first and he traced the features of her face, memorizing her. Her eyes fluttered at his soft touch, and after a moment she leaned her head into his palm, closing her eyes as she let him feel her. “Can I kiss you, treasure?” Bucky asked quietly. “I still can’t quite believe you’re real…that you’re here.”

Y/N inhaled deeply at his request, still looking hesitant. Bucky knew it was going to take a long time for her to fully trust him again, and he was willing to wait, to be patient, but he hoped she would say yes to just this one thing. She nodded. “Yes,” she whispered.

Bucky smiled softly, then slowly dipped his head, nuzzling her nose with his nose first, then kissing her gently. The kiss was healing for him, melding together the fractures in his heart and his mind. Y/N barely moved, her lips kissing him back but not with the same fervor or passion she used to. It hurt Bucky, but he knew it would take time. He pulled away and smiled at her, kissing the tip of her nose. “Thank you, lovey.”

Songs from my playlists that represent how the 141 loves you (+bonus König)

Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley:

“Wasteland” by Woodkid

Most of what I used to be had vanished in the waves/The memories of the boy I’ve been were drowning and you saved them/Now I remember the joy and the meaning of the fate/The color of the truth and the sound of sunny days

You have reminded him what it’s like be human again. When you look at him, he is Simon. He’s your Simon. He’s the man whose cheeks you’ve held countless times, kissing the corners of his eyes, tasting the paint on your lips but you couldn’t care less. Your small hands reach out time and time again and pull him back from the edge. And he’ll always take your hand, he might fight you at first, insistent that he’s too dangerous and that you’ll get hurt if you stay. But you always fight back. You’ll always fight your way back to him. You make him feel wanted, safe, human.

John ‘Soap’ MacTavish:

“Everlong” by The Foo Fighters

Breathe out/So I can breathe you in/Hold you in/And now/I know you've always been/Out of your head/Out of my head, I sang

He’s such a hopeless romantic. You became his entire world, the light in his eyes, and when you two first met it was like coming up for air after being submerged for so long. And he never wants to let you go, he feels like it’s always been you. You’re the mile marker along the highway of his life, there is a ‘before’ and then there is only a ‘with you’. Nothing is as good when he’s on his own, but with you? The sun’s out, the birds are singing their stupid songs, the flowers are in full bloom, and he can breathe again.

John Price:

“Thank You” by Dido

Push the door I’m home at last/I’m soaking through and through/Then you handed me a towel/And all I see is you/And even if my house falls down now/I wouldn’t have a clue/Because you’re near me

You’re his motivation. You’re what gets him through his long days. Knowing that there’s a home with you waiting for him is what pushes him. He has a picture of you in his wallet that he always looks at, and he’s so fucking tired but he keeps going for you. To see you, to hold you, to kiss you, to cherish you. And when he finally comes home, his bones each weighing a million pounds, and he sees you, it all just melts away. Nothing matters. He tunnel visions and it’s just you. There’s nothing happening outside these walls, it’s just you, and that’s all he needs.

Kyle ‘Gaz’ Garrick:

“Lose It” by Oh Wonder

Downtown we let it go/Sunset high and our bodies low/Blood rush in the hazy glow/My hands, your bones/Looser we break the scene/One step deep as you fall to me/Heart clap, we skip a beat/Count one, two, three

He’s the warmth that flows through your veins, he’s the sun that shines on your cheeks, he’s the rhythmic sound of cars driving on wet asphalt after a storm. And you? Sweetheart, you’re the twinkle of city lights on the skyline, you’re the sound of laughter from a couple caught in the rain, you’re the steady soothing rhythm of a love song. You’re his favorite song. He’ll always move to your beat, hands on your hips, forehead against yours.

König:

“Just the Two of Us” by Grover Washington Jr, Bill Whithers

I see the crystal raindrops fall/And the beauty of it all/Is when the sun comes shining through/To make those rainbows in my mind/When I think of you sometime/And I wanna spend some time with you

He’s so at home with you. When you’re together all his worries melt away. Every thought that gets overplayed in his head start to quiet down the closer he is to you. There’s no one he’d rather be with than you. There is literally no one else in the world. And when you’re sat between his legs, reclined against his chest watching a movie, his heart is drumming in his chest. Only it’s not an anxious beat, it’s a beat that plays for you. It’s a beat that knows you’re the most wonderful thing in his life. You’re the sip of cold water in the middle of the night when his nightmares rip him from his sleep, you’re kissing his sweaty forehead and reminding him that you’re here. That it’s just the two of you. And he’s at peace again.

title: room by laughingpineapple

word count: 1.4k

diane&senorita dido; the way the lodge and otherworldliness is handled here is so good, and diane and the way she comes to exist in this place is perfect

excerpt:

The gramophone’s needle stands still in the room by the sea. Time dissipated along with the fading of the last note and Dido is left with nothing but stillness. Maybe it still flows elsewhere in the house, nested within a maze of eternal corridors, maybe there is a place where the music continues, and a party roars on, affording a beating heart to this place, a mark of the passing of the ages. If it exists, its rhythm is muffled by rows of concrete until all that’s left this far away is unchanging eternity. Even the waves that crash for miles on the rocks below cannot reach the room’s window, which only ever shows the unfathomable sky.

Dido gives a forlorn look at the broken gramophone on the table and yearns.

She waits on the couch. The sky outside remains distant and purple. Not night, not anything. An idea of a sky, real by way of accumulation, the purple dreams of civilizations pressed upon each other. Time passes, elsewhere, years and centuries. She thinks that she remembers another place, from before eternity. A place that can only be perceived in glimpses, the rustling of curtains, and there was always music in the air. A haunting saxophone. Singing. It made you forget you were anywhere at all, between the curtains.

TYRE (in modern-day Lebanon) is one of the oldest cities in the world, dating back over 4,000 years, during which it has been inhabited almost continuously. It was one of the most important, and at times the dominant, city of Phoenicia, whose citizens claimed it had been founded by the great god Melqart.

The city was an ancient Phoenician port and industrial center which, in myth, is known as the birthplace of Europa (who gave Europe its name) and Dido of Carthage (who gave aid to and fell in love with Aeneas of Troy). The name means 'rock' and the city consisted of two parts, the main trade center on an island, and 'old Tyre', about a half-mile opposite on the mainland. The old city, known as Ushu (an earlier name for Melqart), was founded c. 2750 BCE, and the trade center grew up shortly after. In time, the island complex became more prosperous and populated than Ushu and was heavily fortified.

I wanna share with you guys some traditional art I've been making recently- since November I've been doing this album-of-the-week thing, and a few weeks into the year I started picking out my favorite line from the album of the week and doing a little illustration for it. If you can call it that- they're just quick, rough little pictures, more experimental than polished. Some are better than others. But I have some watercolors and acrylic paints that I never used before this project, and a hell of a lot of markers and gel pens and colored pencils that need to be used, too. I've been learning a lot and getting some use out of what I have at the same time, so that's good enough for me! Here's the first quarter of 2024 done:

Albums/artists/lyrics under the cut, plus some additional commentary because why not.

(2024 part 2) (2024 part 3)

Week 1: "I wanna be what my body wants me to be" is from the song Townie, from the album bury me at makeout creek by mitski. I actually kinda hated this whole album, but Townie is a tolerable song.

Week 2: "it never hurts to give thanks to the local gods, you never know who might be hungry" is from the song Younger, from the album In League With Dragons, by the Mountain Goats. Mixed feelings about the album. Mostly just mad that I can't just put a mostly transparent blue layer over everything when I want it to look like night with watercolor the way I can with digital art.

Week 3: "that we won't run, and we won't run, and we won't run" is from the song King And Lionheart, from the album My Head Is An Animal by Of Monsters And Men, which is a meh album but I love this song.

Week 4: "Make it a dirt dance floor again" is from the song Bleed It Out, from the album Minutes to Midnight by Linkin Park. GREAT album. The art looks just like poop but I swear the paint came out of the tube like that, I didn't mix it with anything or anything!

Week 5: "gotta be more to life than just try, try, try" from the song Half A Mile Away, from the album 52nd Street by Billy Joel. This was actually the first one I made, I went back and did the first 4 a little later.

Week 6: "I'm gonna keep on dancing" is from the song Pink Pony Club, from the album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess by Chappell Roan. The album is ok, I guess? Not my favorite but this track is a really good one.

Week 7: "maybe they'll love me when I finally get out of this town" is from the song Made For This, from the album Built To Last, by Arrows in Action, which is a FANTASTIC album, like DAMN.

Week 8: "together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness, I love you with all the madness in my soul" is from the song Born To Run, by the album of the same name by Bruce Springsteen. It was really hard to get a picture of this one for some reason. Metallic gel pen might have something to do with it.

Week 9: "inside, everybody's hiding something" is from the song Slide, from the album No Angel by Dido. I LOVE Dido. I meant to add more masks in the picture, ok. I got lazy. I should have just made the other ones bigger...

Week 10: "tomorrow's just another day" is from the song Don't Cry 2020 (which was released in 2017), from the album How Will You Know If You Never Try by the band COIN. Forgettable album, but the art is of my room, but I didn't get up and walk 10 steps to get a reference, just did it from memory. The window is too small and not in the right place, and I just changed up the patterns on the blanket because I didn't feel like checking.

Week 11: "if it's ever gonna happen, it's gotta happen here I am" (which seems like it should be missing a comma, but it's like that on purpose) is from the song Shine On Me, from the album Pure Fiction by Eric Hutchinson (not his best work I fear).

Week 12: "make new symbols, make new signs" is from the title track from the album New Beginning, by Tracy Chapman. AMAZING album, I loved it. I'm completely pissed that I messed up the art, though. I thought I had it going for me. Boo.

Week 13: "I don't look important, so they're telling me to wait" is from the song WaldorfWorldwide, from Good Charlotte's self titled debut album. Self portrait of me, a teacher, being mistaken for a student at an event, which is a frequent and frustrating occurrence. This album is ok, but I think they were pretty clearly still developing at this point in their career.

REVIEWING THE CHARTS: 10/02/2024

Noah Kahan’s “Stick Season” is still #1, it’s a short episode, you really probably should skip it - there's nothing of value discussed here... welcome back to REVIEWING THE CHARTS.

Rundown

This is not a good week. You could call it a stale week, it’s probably accurate, because there’s not much of interest and what is here is mostly utter garbage. Potentially, up there with the worst weeks ever in terms of new arrivals to the UK Top 75, which is what I cover, and speaking of what I cover, notable dropouts are songs exiting said top 75 after five weeks in the region or a peak in the top 40, and this week, we bid adieu to: “Skin and Bones” by David Kushner, “neé-nah” by 21 Savage, Travis Scott and Metro Boomin, “Practice” by Drake, “Pink Friday Girls” and “Everybody” featuring Lil Uzi Vert by Nicki Minaj and finally, “Paint the Town Red” by Doja Cat. One highlight of this dire week is that I’m not really complaining about any of that.

Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved” returns to #67, what a joy, as well as “Anti-Hero” by Taylor Swift at #62 and “Flowers” by Miley Cyrus at #51. Can’t help but think the GRAMMYs had some influence on these. As for notable gains, we see boosts for Taylor’s “Is it Over Now?” at #68, “MY EYES” by Travis Scott at #65, “What Was I Made For?” by Billie Eilish at #58, “Would You (go to bed with me?)” by Campbell and Alcemist at #52, “Perfect (Exceeder)” by Mason vs. Princess Superstar at #39, “Runaway” by Ye featuring Pusha T at #35, seemingly because well, there may or may not be an album coming because that’s what we needed: more discourse. Then we have “Scared to Start” by Michael Marcagi at #31, “Selfish” by Justin Timberlake at #29 (why are we doing this?), “exes” by Tate McRae at #23, “Alibi” by Ella Henderson featuring Rudimental at #16 (Christ), and we end with two positives at least, as YG Marley and Benson Boone both get their first top 10s with pretty damn good songs, in my opinion: “Praise Jah in the Moonlight” at #9 and “Beautiful Things” at #5, which brings us to that top five, which is otherwise completely the same as last week. Jack Harlow’s at #4, Teddy Swims at #3, Sophie Ellis-Bextor at #2 and for a sixth week, Noah Kahan at #1. You know the song names off by heart by now, and I need some time to let off a deep sigh before rattling off the new songs. Oh, boy, the new songs.

New Entries

#75 - “Out for Love” - Andrew Underberg, Sam Haft and Daphne Rubin-Vega

Produced by Andrew Underberg and Sam Haft

So, Hazbin Hotel was a web pilot by Vivienne Medrano or “ViziePop” that was later picked up by Amazon as a television series this year. It is a musical animated series hence has several soundtrack singles, and given the weak charts and viral nature of the show, some of them have ended up here. I watched the pilot and first four episodes of the series, and found it genuinely quite difficult to stomach - I love adult animation, I love musicals, I actually even like the art style - it was the narrative elements of the show that killed it for me, and this is not a TV review blog, it’s a music review blog. I knew at least one song would debut as the midweek update showed one song at #73, I figured that would be the only song and it could potentially not even appear, so I wrote a very tersely-worded review for that song in particular. It’s a bit… not all that useful anymore, for lack of a better phrase. So I’m largely not going to be covering these. This is from the seventh episode, which I haven’t seen. Song doesn’t make any Goddamn sense to me. Journalism.

#74 - “Thank You (Not So Bad)” - Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Tiesto, Dido and W&W

Produced by Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Tiesto, W&W, Bassjackers and Renze Michels

Okay, if you’re going to credit a grand total of five EDM producers, why not go the full mile and have all eight pick out a lead? Also, I would ask how eight people were involved in producing this if I had any doubts that it wasn’t just an uncredited guy who got paid to sell this lazy sample flip off to people with actual star power. A sample flip of what, you may ask? Sigh�� well, if there’s anything vaguely positive I can say about “Alibi” is that it’s influential. This is somehow even lazier, however, so I guess let’s start with some kind of history.

First of all, Dido’s “Thank You” is a perfectly fine, honest song that peaked at #3 in 2001 - “Do You Really Like It?” by DJ Pied Piper & the Masters of Ceremonies rightfully took #1 that week - and whilst I’ve never been a big fan, I can definitely see why the melancholy downtempo ballad resonates with people, and on a bad day, I can definitely throw this on and feel a little hope. This is a bad chart day, and if “Thank You” were to chart in its original form, it could perhaps be a reminder that things are, despite everything, it’s not so bad. So I imagine rap fans will know one of if not both of the uses of this song in popular hip hop, the first being Eminem’s classic “Stan”, probably my second favourite of his. It actually did #1 for one week in 2000, before the original had charted. It’s a stark and incredibly clever recontextualisation of the song that I’m pretty sure has already been discussed as much as possible, there’s a reason why many consider it Em’s crowning moment. Rae Sremmurd, “Lean’s Gone Cold”… maybe not so much. That one didn’t chart, but it’s funny.

Now there is precedent for house remixes of “Thank You”, and whilst I’m willing to consider interpretations and reimaginings of practically any song as any different style, I feel like making “Thank You” more danceable than just a vague nodding of the head skews some of the narrative’s tone? It definitely makes for a weirder, more dissonant listen, and whilst the Deep Dish remix, actually a GRAMMY Award-winning remix, does its best to maintain the atmosphere in its nine minutes, turning “not so bad” into a faint, looping mantra under a constantly developing house groove, to the point where it is a genuinely pretty great house song production wise… it still doesn’t feel like a great adaptation of “Thank You”, just a different product entirely, which makes sense and honestly makes for a better song. It doesn’t try and be “Thank You”, despite not even registering itself as an original song, just a remix of the original still credited solely to Dido. In 2016, European electro house duos Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and W&W made a song called “Arcade”, it’s a loud, compressed smorgasboard of cheap synth sounds made for a live festival setting and being practically unlistenable outside of that context. In 2020, German producers Felix Jaehn and VIZE made a much more conventional and, at least in terms of how much it cribs from the original, a more faithful rendition of “Thank You”, subtitled “Not So Bad”. It’s a flavourless tropical house riff that I think the world would be better off not hearing, it’s like “Thank You” by Dido if she was commissioned to make it by an advertising company looking for a soundtrack to gym commercials.

Somewhere across the line, I guess it must have been Tiesto who said, “What if we made a version of that Felix Jaehn song but basically in the soundfont of “Arcade”?” - the latter even being directly listed as a sample on Genius. I mean, otherwise, I don’t know what the Hell Tiesto is doing here but, generally, you have to be shitting me, right? This is two minutes and 20 seconds constructed out of bits and pieces of songs I may not like but had a lot more purposeful artistic intent to them, if that’s a correct way of phrasing it. This is a vaguely functional crap-shoot molded from genuine song ideas, starting with a gentle singer-songwriter track that actually means a Hell of a lot to millions of people. I’d believe that to many fans, that Rae Sremmurd rendition means a lot to them. What does this mean to anybody?

#63 - “Bandit” - Don Toliver

Produced by ReidMD

I don’t like Don Toliver, really, or Tame Impala for that record, but there’s a level of inherent quality here, right? Don can sing, Tame Impala can construct a vibe and the sample here is “One More Hour” from their 2020 album The Slow Rush, it’s completely serviceable, could make for a good song. So why the sample is rendered in such low quality screeching is beyond me, but hey, maybe a powerful beat could work? Oh, the trap skitter is not only completely rote and overdone, it’s really high in the mix and distracts from the bass, which could really help make this song work? Okay, well, what’s Don doing? Being basically a cartoon character with his flows and incessant ad-libs? Well, that could be fun - oh, he’s comparing himself to Marilyn Manson? Barely rhyming? Catching a good, intense flow only to mumble repeated lines mostly about having sex that make up much of the song, with a tiny verse in the middle? Well, maybe the outro can make up for it - oh, he’s doing a Cookie Monster impression. Welp, all hope is lost.

#55 - “Poison” - Blake Roman, Sam Haft and Andrew Underberg

Produced by Sam Haft and Andrew Underberg

This is an upbeat synthpop jam that soundtracks a sex slavery montage. It sounds like a song by The Weeknd covered by a SpongeBob AI voice model. Next.

#53 - “Loser, Baby” - Andrew Underberg, Sam Haft, Keith David and Blake Roman

Produced by Sam Haft and Andrew Underberg

This was the song that made me turn the fourth episode off in disgust. I had a massive review prepared, covering its treatment of sexual abuse, which probably gave it a higher degree of nuance and generosity than many others are willing to give it, but I’m not compelled to rant about cartoons in this series. I want to write about animation more often but preferably animation I like or actually find compelling. With all respect to those who enjoy it and power to them, Hazbin Hotel was not something I would like to grant any more attention than the brief necessity of my format. Thanks for understanding.

#40 - “Home” - Good Neighbours

Produced by Good Scott and Oli Fox

I was very much willing to give this one a good shake because, I mean, what else do we have? Scott and Fox teased this on TikTok months prior before releasijng this as their official debut single together, after malformed, quickly aborted solo runs a few years ago. Sounds like a recipe for chart success and oh, the song’s terrible. It has a whistle about as charming as the American Authors’ milennial whoops, really insufferably screeching vocal tones that remind me of Passion Pit more than anything - that isn’t really a good thing - and sentimental lyrics about what home means to him, which would be completely serviceable without the stiff, grooveless splodge of grey matter that calls itself a chorus. Oh, and you know those sentimental lyrics? They’re gone by this point, it’s an incredibly manipulative breakup song with some really gross attempts at poetry - “wrap my name across your mouth when I let my feelings down”? Ew, man, Charlie Puth is less contrived than this. Naturally, the song goes nowhere and sadly, that probably won’t be its chart trajectory. Yet, once again, this song is practically unlistenable.

Conclusion

…Don Toliver gets Best of the Week. Somehow. Thanks for reading, I guess? See you next whenever.

They felt something pushing at them, a force which was tangible only on the inner plane. At first Aminia feared they were under some sort of mental attack. She didn’t know whether to retreat or attempt to fight back. Then Velia reminded her: He is waking. His mind is expelling ours.

The three of them quickly returned to their bodies, and opened their eyes in time to see all of the sleepers waking up. Lewoll sat up slowly, rubbing his eyes like a child. “Strange dream I had,” he began, then looked up at his friends. “No,” he went on, “It wasn’t a dream, was it?” He turned to look at the others, the men and women who had slept beside him. “There is some danger . . .” He frowned, clearly trying to think.

Aminia crouched down beside him. “You were all sleeping so long. We had to wake you,” she explained, looking over to the others as well. “I’m afraid we have to start for home as soon as we can. Are you all fit to travel?”

At the opposite end of the shelter, Dido was getting to her feet, stretching her arms over her head as anyone might after waking from a long sleep. “I feel wonderfully fit!” she exclaimed with a grin. “Ready to go any time you are.”

“Good.” Aminia rose to her feet. She couldn’t begin to explain what had just happened. In entering Lewoll’s mind, she and her companions seemed to have created a link with all the sleepers, without intending to do so or even knowing they could. She knew dreams could be shared, though she had never known the sharing to involve more than two sleepers. But perhaps what they had seen in Lewoll’s sleeping mind had not been a mere dream. They may have entered into a true vision, of the type that her people seldom experienced.

The range of possibilities made her feel somewhat dizzy, and she pushed the inner debate aside. What mattered now was getting her party home. There would be time to discuss this later, with her mother and the Council. She turned to Romel.

“Let the others know we’ll be leaving soon. I want to have some miles between us and the battleground before dark.”

Romel made a small bow. “Yes, my lady.” As she watched him walk away, she realized that perhaps she could lead this group after all. Romel and Velia would have been good officers in a more formally organized army. She knew she could depend on them. And she had Lune as well. Fragile as he might still be, he had always been a good fighter and a better friend. They would be all right as long as she kept her head.

After instructing Velia to start ahead with a small party of scouts, Aminia turned to the task of breaking camp. The shelters had to be taken down and packed away. Fires had to be put out and the ashes covered, and all the other little signs of the Landlen’s presence erased. This was not only done to confuse anyone or anything that might be hunting them. The Landlen believed they should not disturb whatever land they occupied any more than was necessary. When they did not intend to return to a place, they took care not to leave anything but footprints there. Even in the present circumstances, Aminia and her party followed these ancient dictates almost automatically.

Lune watched after Tarin while this work was going on. He half-expected the little boy to be getting underfoot and out of control in all the excitement, as he so often did at home. But Tarin had been unusually quiet since his mother left, and he stayed close to Lune as if he sensed the seriousness of the preparations. When he did speak, he only asked, “Are we going home now?”

“We’re going to the Landlen village,” Lune told him. “You can visit Queen Maya and our other friends.”

Tarin nodded, a solemn expression on his round face. “I wish we could go home, though.” His tone was wistful but not complaining. He knew he couldn’t have his wish yet.

“So do I.” Despite being among friends again, Lune felt out of place in the busy camp. The security of home would have been some comfort after what he had been through in the past weeks. He could well understand how Tarin felt. For his own part, he missed Yvan the most. The former pirate had been his best friend and work partner for years. It had been Yvan’s strength and care, as much as Zania’s and Aminia’s, which had brought him back to himself last night. The presence of his friend would have made him feel safer.
