#I'm still so emotional about that show. Jere had a fucking year huh?

I'm still so amazed at the fact that in the Vuosi Vaihtuu stream Cha Cha Cha is only the backing track. Like you can't actually hear anything more than that and Jukka's guitar. Jere is singing and you can hear it as barely a whisper over the backing track vocals that are so overwhelmingly loud.
They just had to have the noise gate up that high on every microphone. They just had to mix it that way for the stream. Because there are like a hundred fireworks going off and +75k people screaming simultaneously and fucking Oodi undoubt fucking up everything.
Idk, it's just insane to me how fucking huge that show was. And there in the middle is Jere Vantaalta.
#käärijä#I'm still so emotional about that show. Jere had a fucking year huh?#sorry I was rewatching and I forgot that you can actually hear jaakko and allu better than Jere during huhhahhei#and that you can't hear Jere's singing like at all most of the time beyond the stuff that's happening between the actual songs#compare the audio from that to any other vod. the ice hall one. the stadium. kesärauha.#and the guitar at the end of cha cha cha? where it sounds like someone punched it? because someone probably did and it's so high in the mix

the summer i turned pretty 2x06 review -- no, i swear, tho, conrad was just sad...
Episode 6, the episode anons have wanted me to watch.
"I don't know I'm kind of happy here" after one day. THE MAGIC OF COUSINS.
"I know things are not great right now but it's always darkest before the dawn, right?" Why make him speak in cliches?
Cam Cameron WHY. ARE YOU HERE?
I like how Belly could've just said "We should throw a party" but because we're supposed to understand the closeness of these families through dialogue alone she has to say it in a roundabout way so she can talk about a memory of her mom and Susannah that Conrad and Jeremiah should already know if it's like they all grew up together 3 months out of the year.
This zen conversation with Steven and Conrad is legit like the first real conversation I've witnessed on this show.
This volleyball conversation is so forced.
"Your subconscious brain takes you there" You can just say subconscious, Jere. Who wrote this.
Oh look, ANOTHER taylor swift song. jesus christ.
I think I got a few requests to do a vid to this song and I remember just not getting over "is it chill that you're in my head?" because I thought it sounded like when you go to the thesaurus and look up synonyms for "cool".
They're both trickling their hands in the water, are their fingers going to touch and it's going to be ELECTRICITY?
Yes.
But this is her I FEEL THE ELECTRICITY face
You know, we can't even consistently stay here
at marginal almost kind of chemistry
"I'll come too!" Taylor's "Uh huh" is the only time I've marginally liked her.
You can't scoff at him calling her his muse with your cliched valedictorian speech, Steven.
LOOK AT MY FAKE I.D. k.
"Wooooooow, your I.D. didn't work Mr. Herbertson??" "Fuck off, at least I have one" oh my god, a moment between them that ACTUALLY sounded genuine. I am amazed. It will most likely die of loneliness.
And Jumper laughing then pointing at the sign is legitimately the only funny moment I've seen throughout this entire season.
BELLY WILL SAVE THE DAY. SHE WILL GET THE BOOZE. BECAUSE SHE IS BELLY. AND IT IS THE SUMMER SHE TURNED PRETTY.
She doesn't even sound sincere.
i am laughing so hard, this is the first time i've read rap on this show and it's because SHE'S SO GANGSTER SHE GOT THE BOOZE BECAUSE SHE'S BELLY.
Conrad asserting his dominance after Belly got Jeremiah a drink but not him one by drinking from Belly's straw is actually pretty funny though. It would be better if Belly wasn't so ... herself.
I love that Skye and Cam Cameron are the ship I care about the most (and I'm using the word 'care' SO loosely).
"The sacred emergency Amex??" It went back to being phony.
I can't deal with more Taylor and Steven.
And she'll put the boa around him because this show loves cliches.
And Jeremiah will see because this show loves cliches.
"Belly, you don't have to apologize for that" she kind of does though. She was kind of completely terrible.
Girl, you can shrug and shake your head all you want, it doesn't compensate for a lack of emotion in your face or voice.
And he's blinking trying to find his well of emotion and that shit is dry, my friend.
It's not like he was kissing Aubrey, it's not even like they were hugging, he had his head in her lap and you can say "teenager" all you want but this is ridiculous.
This is also the closest they've come to executing what they want with these two and it's still not done well but when he says "Aubrey was just the one who found me I wish it was you" I can at least say I believe that.
There we go.
So I'm guessing she's supposed to have this cosmic, soulful, reach into each other's soul connection with Conrad and a fun, chemistry-filled familiarity with Jeremiah. I've just seen both things done properly so this is just very big shrug.
I was going to say something about the 'how to kiss' conversation but then I was like, lol there are too many youths on my blog. So, moving on.
"I always hated when Mom made us take these pictures but it's like she knew we'd want them later" yes, Jeremiah, that's the purpose of a picture. He would annoy me less if they stopped giving him asinine lines.
"Looking at you mooning over Conrad" "That was a LONG time ago" how long ago was this break up, Belly?
she's saying the same thing twice. That's just called moving on. What it should be is "mourning your past and moving on in the present" or "remembering your past and moving on in the present" or "celebrating your past and moving on in the present" or "appreciating your past and moving on in the present". WHO. WROTE. THIS.
So Jere is Dean and Conrad is Jess, which anon essentially told me. Except Conrad is nowhere near as bad as Jess. He is just a boy who's been sad. LMAO.
she needs to be stopped.
"I don't want to talk about Conrad, he really hurt you" BY BEING SAD?
"You don't need to hurt yourself to get my attention" that was almost hot but he lacks the conviction necessary for me to be like ... sir ... and they don't actually have the i-need-to-jump-your-bones tension they need to have
"Just don't fucking break her heart again." He was quiet at prom. I...
OK so I'm really on neither side here because I don't care but there is a bit of a difference between Conrad telling Jere to suck it up and let him be with Belly, which was insensitive, and Jeremiah about to make out with his brother's ex girlfriend in public.
"When things aren't perfect instead of trying to fix it, he decides to throw it away" but we literally never see him do that?? Like he leaves Brown to go to the house to stop the sale, he's like Liam or whoever, he got a judge to let him access the trust, let's do that. Jeremiah did you think of anything you could do to help save this house except bring flowers to Julia, which failed, or did you just go let's not give up every time reality hit? Because even the "let's get Syke on our side" plan was Belly's? Idk dude, you're talking a big game for a character who I've seen be effectively useless??
"When shit got tough, he couldn't handle it and he dropped you", he literally said he couldn't go to back to the prom and Belly was like LET'S BREAK UP THEN and then he tried to be like wait that's not what I mean and Belly refused to listen?
I ... WHAT?
See, this isn't a blowup. This is a very contained, very quiet fight and this is when it's supposed to be a dirty OH SHIT fight. We should get a version of this, GET IN HIS FACE JERE
rail up on him
be specific
don't be afraid to have a fight! Not to mention I can't believe this fight because like 98% of the things he's accusing Conrad of, I don't think Conrad actually did, that would make him too much an active character. He is literally just a guy who's been sad.
And I know they hinted that Jeremiah has to deal with stuff because he was putting together Susannah's receipts or whatever but this is when juxtaposition would work where we see him see her wither away, we see him give her ice chips, we see him take care of her and Conrad is with Belly or at school.
Belly, why are YOU drunk? omg, at least Marissa's drama was FUN.
"I'm not leaving you, Belly." "But you already did!" I mean DID HE? And he also explained WHAT happened with Aubrey?
Someone said Conrad is like a ticking time bomb but what happens when he explodes because I haven't seen it. I've just seen him be sad.
And ALSO THIS SHOULD HAVE THIS KIND OF ENERGY
Belly, you are actually a ridiculous person
If they really wanted me to believe that Conrad was slipping away little by little throughout their relationship then they can't just leave that up to prom and a voiceover. I needed to see him actively shut her out, I needed to see her actively try to talk to him and him refusing to let her in. I needed to see him be Jess. Otherwise, this is RIDICULOUS.
Oh good, you know what I needed now? Another Taylor Swift song.
And then Belly turns around and kisses/chooses Jeremiah after this? BRO. WHY DO EITHER OF YOU LIKE HER?
