Hi! I hope you had a nice relaxing time with your family. Did you do anything fun? I meant to reply yesterday but I felt tired for once lol. I haven't had time to watch Poor Things yet but I definitely will this weekend! I'm also going to watch eras..I was supposed to tonight to get even more hyped for the album but my sister got tired. Omg do you like Schmigadoon? Did you watch Schmicago too? I think it's just a fun silly show and I love seeing if I know all the references. I love Beyonce's album so much..i think it has a lot of different sounds and I enjoy every song. I haven't heard Maggie's album yet but enjoyed Lizzy's and also Conan Gray's from last week and espresso is such a fun song. I did get tickets to the tour and we are going to be in the pit this time so maybe it will be more fun. This week, I'm playing Taylor of course and decided to start from Red and listen to the rest, but skipping 1989 since we just heard it and I don't think this album will be anything like it. She also made her own playlists I'm trying to make my way through, just because I think it's fun to hear songs from different albums sometimes. I can't believe we are already gonna hear it tonight! I'm so excited!!!

So when I saw the track lengths, it definitely made me more interested in some songs I wasn't at first. Especially Daddy I Love Him..which is apparently one of her longest songs ever. I honestly don't know what to expect from that song, cuz I don't know if I buy the Little Mermaid theory yet. Who's afraid of little old me was as well, and Taylor also wrote it herself, so I'm more interested in that cuz her solo songs are always so good. It made me more curious about my boy breaks his favorite toys too, which is the other solo song but I also always love her track threes. I also wonder if it has to do with Who's afraid of Virgina Woolf or not. Overall I was happy to see a mix of Aaron and Jack cuz I like both styles. The song lengths make me wonder if the album will be more similar to Speak Now, Red or Folklore and Evermore, since all the songs are pretty long. I love long songs so it would make me happy. So I think the ones I am most excited for are the title song, so long London, Florida, the Alchemy and Clara Bow, so I guess it didn't really change. What about you? For the bonus tracks, it's the Manuscript and the Black Dog so we will see if these become favorites. My sister and I are also gonna try to do a prelisten and first listen ranking so we can look back on the results. I think it's likely that Fortnight will be the single with the music video coming out on Friday so I'm excited for that since I always like the opening songs and I'm curious why the music video wouldn't come out the same time as the album.

I've been trying to keep up with everything. I think the aesthetic of the album has changed from academic department to a mystery with evidence police investigation to a court case. This is also something I'm curious about and if it will make more sense with the album. I think it's starting to make sense now. What do you think of the new lyrics? Which were your favorites? What songs do you think they are from? I really liked the first lyric about the eclipse and I think it might be from Clara Bow, and the one that says I wish I could unrecall how we almost had it all, since it reminds me of a mix of All Too Well or Cornelia Street. I think it could be from the title song or So Long London maybe? Not sure..possibly the manuscript if it's a bonus track. The others are nice too and I will have fun making guesses about which songs they're from with my sister. For Midnights, we got half right lol and with 1989. I love all of the lyrics so far and it just makes me more excited for the album..which I knew it would, after feeling not as much as I usually am for a Taylor album. It's okay if you don't reply before listening or right away if you're just taking the album in but I hope you have fun and I will be interested to see if we have some of the same favorites! Happy listening! 🩷🩷🩷

hello!!! i loveeeed schmicadoon and schmicago — i think schmicadoon was like the perfect season 1 and i really loved how they played with a lot of musical theatre tropes, but i think that schmicago was more fun for me because pippin is up there for one of my favorite musicals and i had a blast spotting all the pippin nods/references! i'm already fighting the itch to rewatch it, but have been listening to the soundtrack all week. i haven't listened to the new conan yet but i need to — saving it for when i'm feeling better! have SO much fun on tour! i thought about getting tickets, especially since maisie is opening but conan/maisie is here the day before my mom's birthday and i'm not sure if we'll have plans (or if we'll be going out of town)!

i cannot believe the double album theorists were right!! so i guess we did have a midnightsy, 1989y, synth sounding album and a folklorey slower downed red-esque album! i'm still trying to figure out how i feel about this album; i have a lot of mixed feelings, and i think i need to do a few more listens, but wanted to reply to this first! i think first impression standouts are: but daddy i love him, down bad, loml, guilty as sin, i can do it with a broken heart, the black dog, the prophecy and the manuscript, but i haven't spent as much time with the second half of the album as i have the first, so i'll have to do some more relistening! i was able to listen to the first half of the album twice while waiting for the "2am announcement" then just fell asleep right after listening to the black dog. and then spent all of friday napping, but i'd try to stay up for a bit to hydrate, so i'd listen to like two songs at a time. not the most ideal way to listen to an album! covid really wiped me out. i'll probably relisten once i'm feeling ~ better better ~ and will post my thoughts on here when i do!

what were your first impressions? and have your favorites changed since?

an update for you! i've been (re)watching a lot of old bootlegs while i've been sick this week: the light in the piazza, next to normal, pippin, and catch me if you can. and am having a bit of an aaron tveit resurgence, if you haven't seen that from my blog already 😭 i'm not sure what i'll watch next — if you have any suggestions? i feel like we've talked a lot about taylor and some about theatre, but i'm trying to remember your favorite musicals and am coming up blank!

hope you're having a good weekend!! just wanted to say hellooooo! 🤍

you called ? (｡･∀･)ﾉﾞ

hehe

hi sweetie, how are you doinggggggg, how was vacay, how is life going on!!!

I came online bc mr. conan fucking gray released a new song and i wanted to see how is it going with other ppl who like him bc i loved the vibe and its different from what he usually sings and everything.

speaking of songs, i liked the one you linked in my last ask a lot.

my exams are almost over, the last one is on 26th and the next ones are in like july end so yayyyyy

i am looking forward to some holidays if we will get any because its not confirmed yet and i do not trust my institute as they didnt give us any winter holidays either. but i do wanna learn something like dancing or driving or even swimming, if we get like a month of holiday bc i really wanna learn something useful i have started to feel like a useless person tbh bc i dont do anything productive with my time. i dont read i dont write i dont have a single fucking hobby. i am just on this damn phone watching web series and movies.

although my laptop is fixed now so ig i can start reading again.

i have a rack full of course book but i just dont feel like reading them. i go through a 300 page book in two hours, just skimming through and skipping half of the syllabus. and yesterday i didnt even study that much i just gave the exam according to prev knowledge which is so so so limited idek if i will pass. like i am sure out of 10 subject i am for sure going to fail in atleast 3 including the last one and barely pass by a mark or two in the other subs.

and if i wont get any holidays then i think we will join the institute before or by 15th of june and then we will have to settle in and maybe start preparing for orientation for the next batch of freshers and maybe get to participate in some inter-institute competions. bc there are like 9 branches and i am hoping i will make some friends from the other institutes so its going to be a lot of activities and chaos and i wish i will get to participate in something and they wont reject me for being completely useless everywhere. bc that, would be hella depressing. specially as i m already feeling useless and then other ppl will make me feel more useless, like gimme a break here.

i am going to try to stay positive about it though. as long as i can that is.

sorry for the long rant lol. have a good day, or night. <3

buh bye

love ya sm

-🐬

Omg 😭😭😭 you’re actually here??? 😭😭😭

Vacay was great, life is okay ig and I didn’t cry in like 3 weeks :D

Yeah I listened to it and I really like it!! I honestly don’t know what song that was I’m glad you like it ❤️🐬

Good luck for your exams!! You’re gonna do great!!

So wait when was the last time you had holidays?? That sounds super stressful I hope you get a few free days soon <33

You aren’t useless!! But that’s great, you learn the things you wanna learn! Speaking of learning I’ll probably start taking guitar classes soon 😁

I Hope you make new friends <3 if anyone says something mean or makes you feel useless I’ll kick their asses!!

Always feel free to rant my love <3

I was at a swim competition today again! I wasn’t really good because I was sick last weeks but it was fun and I’ll go dancing tonight so I’m excited for that already 💃🏽🕺

Love you so so so much 🐬🐬🐬

GRAB SOME POPCORN OR WHATEVER SNACK YOU LIKE OR JUST A GLASS OF WATER IF YOU AREN'T HUNGRY CAUSE THIS IS GONNA TAKE A WHILE TO READ! (I had a lot of energy when I wrote this)

I am having a good week but I just bumped my elbow into a wall so now my elbow is wrapped up in a bandage :( When it comes to Jazz, I think of artists like Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald since I really like the retro sound of jazz from the 1940s and beyond since 1. It's a genre of music that I find really easy to vibe with no matter what type of song or artist I'm listening to at the moment. 2. There is SO MUCH DIVERSITY IN JAZZ!! Like there are jazz songs that are lively and fast-paced like Rip It Up by Little Richard for example and there are songs that are romantic and slow-paced like Put Your Head On My Shoulder by Paul Anka for example.

Now Olivia Rodrigo's SOUR album is super good! I find the lyrics SUPER RELATABLE so A+ for the songwriting! and Olivia's Voice is just so amazing, I really want to see her collab with Conan Gray one day cause I KNOW that their voices would mix together so well, I just KNOW IT. I also think that like Brutal and Good 4 U sit with 0X1=Lovesong and Frosty sit together at lunch *insert Beomgyu's Voice* Ya KnOw WhAt I'M sAyInG *returns to normal voice* like I just get the same vibes(?) from those 4 songs in a way, I seriously don't know how to explain this in a way that makes sense😅

Ariana Grande is obviously one of the best vocalists in our generation and her music literally SLAPS like my favorite 4 albums from Ariana Grande are Sweetener, thank u next, k bye for now (swt live) and Positions Deluxe. HER VERSATILITY IS SO STRONG, IM ALWAYS SHAKING IN MY BOOTS WHENEVER SHE SINGS OMG!!! The Weeknd and Ariana Grande were slaying as always when they performed Off The Table, I'm still in awe as to how their voices mix well so good. and after watching the rest of Ariana's Vevo Live performances, I can confirm the fact that Ariana Grande is such a PRO like bless her!! She's gonna be on The Voice as a mentor/coach and I'm super pumped! She'll be an awesome mentor, I know it! (side note: One of my biggest goals in life is to see Ariana in concert when COVID-19 is over like I have to see her perform in front of my own eyes at least and experience her god-tier presence in a concert stadium at least once since I've only seen her from my screen😭)

BILLIE EILISH IS GONNA RELEASE AN ALBUM SOON HOW ARE WE FEELING? *screams into the void* I'm so excited!! Gonna be honest though, when I first listened to NDA, I didn't like the autotune in the chorus because everyone knows that Bille's voice is perfect without it. HOWEVER when I listened to NDA for like 2 days straight I realized that the autotune kind of emphasises the whole mood of the song so A+ for Billie on that! p.s I desperatley want Billie Eilish nd Ariana Grande to collab like that will the most revolutionary thing we've ever witnessed just saying. Like I'm just super curious about how their styles would mix together into a masterpiece?

Coming back tommorrow :D

Hiii ☺️ omg seems like we need to wrap you in bubble wrap :(

Okay JAZZ I agree it is easy to vibe to!! Idk songs from that era have a kind of like untouchable magic to them? Like there’s something so unique does that even make sense

I LIKE YOUR TAKE Olivia + Conan would be so great I can feel it omg and i know exactly what you mean by those songs sit at the table mhm AGREE 🤝

I rlly hope you get to see Ariana live, I believe you will!! Hearing her vocals live would be a life changing experience I feel,, also bruh I just saw she was gonna be on The Voice yesterday and went ‘dang might have to watch this season’ I’m excited 👀 haha she has a great discography, besides Positions I’m still stuck on Yours Truly 😚

Ooo new album OKAY I will def check it out!! I think Ariana x Billie would break the internet 😂 that record would be so cool oh my god, they’re both amazing artists, it would be beautiful!!
