Once again I come bearing songs! It’s Friday so I’m back with another song wizard new music Friday!
The idea? A weekly song-to-go poll to take a lesser-known song along with you as you scroll!
As with last week, choose songs based on the 30-second Spotify snippets if you don’t know them (I’ve tried to make sure there’s something you won’t know), and if you like them they’re yours* to carry along on your trip!
*as in add them to your library etc., if you like them a lot come ask me and I’ll try and dig up a Bandcamp like for you, hee hee
🎵 SONG-TO-GO 🎵
[last week’s poll, which isn’t open anymore of course, in case you wanted more songs to take with you. Or just come talk to me, I love a music chat!]
Poll’s open for a week, so if you miss this one, I’ll hopefully be back with another one by next Friday!
Happy scrolling! If you want to give your dash a few songs, reblog, I’m just bored :)

We also got a listen to Sean Burns' newly released single from his brand new album "Lost Country" which is due this fall. Plus our pal Neil Mumby is traversing the island of Newfoundland, and wanted a special request. We were more than happy to oblige! Hope you're enjoying your summer. Only 4 weeks to go!

ARIGATO, Thank You
Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul – Thank You Thank You Thank You JayWood – Thank You JayWood is Jeremy Haywood-Smith from Winnipeg MB. What started as bedroom “sad jangle pop songs” just singing about how sad or miserable he was, things slowly started to change as time went on (both style and direction wise) into the more “psych funk” sound that is shown today! JayWood carries a unique sound…

All Answered: 25 Emoji Asks
@cynicaljapanophile @thereluctantherosrose @catherinestark-hphm @anonymous-crazy-girl @bluerosesburnblue @batgirl-87 @zoeysandersofslytherin (i tagged anyone who may enjoy this, if you don’t, please forgive me <3)
🌟 When your OC loses all hope, who do they turn to first? What helps make them feel better? What calms them down and reassures them? Why?
Hard question, When David loses all hope is like a dead man walking, what he re-light his hopes is thinking about the worst-case scenario so he will be like “This is not the worst-case scenario, there is still hope, I can still do something!”. He feels generally better during peaceful situation(who doesn’t?). He feels generally reassured when he can talk with someone who doesn’t mind his odd way to talk(that is similar to Midoriya's way of mumbling when he explains something)
☀️ What makes your OC genuinely happy? A person, an item, their hobby? Where is the place they’re happiest, or most at home? What is the happiest they’ve ever been?
David is basically happy every time he shares his time with Penny. That aside he likes nature, it’s his happy place(maybe in a past life he was an elf from another world/dimension, *wink wink* or he was Snow White XD). He loves animals and creatures, even the colours of nature helps him to relax. Every kind of activity made in the woods makes everything nice and peaceful for him(even a lesson of Potions in the woods would be heaven for him). He loves working for the Magical Creatures Reserve(i headcanon that the Magical Creature Reserve, actually hired him as part-time worker and David gets money from that), even if those creatures can kill anyone(we have Chimeras and Dragons after all), in his opinion they’re way less problematic than anything inside Hogwarts(including people).
🌙 If your OC could have one wish come true what would it be and why? Would there be consequences to this wish or would they regret it once they get what they want? What would they give in return for this wish to come true?
Jacob never trapped in the vaults.
What will change(for the better):
David’s memories will be unsealed sooner
David will never suffer from that depressing feeling of loneliness that brings him to try to resurrect his mother
This will bring David to not lose his sense of touch, never met God/Truth, never had a panic attack over his letter for Hogwarts, Jacob would be the classic “proud big brother” for the last two years(Jacob at least the one in the game, IF he is the real one knows how to apparate and Apparition is a lesson you can take only in Sixth or Seventh year)
David never met Minerva and had an agreement about her paying for his education...Dumbledore would do it instead.
David probably would have been sorted in Hufflepuff or Slytherin(with his brother)
IF the vaults were still a thing going on, Jacob would have a change of mind about over-protecting David, and instead, he would teach them the most advanced spells he knows and give him a strict training-menù, or have his Alchemy-tattoos way sooner
DavidxPenny would look like Hinny rather than a Romione with a “Beauty and the Beast” trope
David and Merula (aside opinions on her racism/elitism) they would be healthy rival(until she screws up everything at least...not implying it, just saying that it may happen, based on what we know about her in the canon game)
David wouldn’t have all those problems related to anger issues, stress, PTSD and depression, and thanks to his brother’s presence he would have someone to truly talk without feeling judged or dismissed(because Jacob dealt with a big part of the Vaults and actually understands him) so David would have mentally “grown” more healthy and without that feeling of “being hiding part of his personality for the sake of being loved” that actually has in the canon HPHM
David would be a better fighter, wizard and he would be more smooth with talking because he dealt with his mental problems way better and actually he doesn’t get triggered by almost everything related to Hogwarts and as consequence(with the secret wish of destroying the institution of Hogwarts like dismantling the staff, like forcing the Ministry to change everything about Hogwarts for the sake of making it a safer place), he would have more time to learn new things...
David would be way less shy about sharing PDA with Penny
❄️ What makes your OC sad, so sad that they can’t help but cry all day? How do they cheer themselves up? Does their sadness upset any of their loved ones too?
With everything happening in HPHM? Only someone dying would make him sad enough to cry, like the 12 students eaten alive by the Acromantula, he cried a lot and was also angry to Dumbledore, enough angry to try to punch him multiple times. He needed to vent for a while with Penny and/or Rowan(at first is supposed to be a PennyxDavid moment but JC is literally removing Rowan from the game...so I want to compensate) helping him to calm down.
🔥 If your OC is known for having temper tantrums? If not, what gets them really angry? What makes their blood BOIL? Is there any way to calm them down or are they unstoppable? What are they like when they’re angry? Do they take it out on their loved ones?
David main reason for a tantrum is when someone explains something but in David’s mind, that explanation sounds so stupid to actually get angry about it. David actual rage usually is extremely violent and sometimes cruel/sadistic, like against Merula for bullying Ben, against Fenrir for assaulting Penny, David going crazy against the chimaera who cut his left arm. David (and Jacob) is a walking natural disaster, you don’t see people stopping hurricanes with the power of friendship or their own strength. David can be calmed down by a couple of people (Penny by calming him down with kindness and love, Rowan by forcing him to use some logic and reason). David hates himself for feeling so angry like a beast, even though he never being violent with the people who care about...if he did, it means that either he never really cared for them or they did something so awful to ruin their relationship with David.
❤️ What would your OC’s ideal lover be like? Appearance, personality, voice? Would their family approve or would it be a civil war?
(I'm gonna be hated by @cynicaljapanophile for this and I deserve her hate)
David’s ideal woman would be either brunette or a redhead like him...someone who knows when push him and when it’s the case to let him reason…..if Merula wasn’t an ungrateful racist, bully(and a criminal, because between trying to kill MC twice and stealing other people’s things...she should be in Azkaban with her parents since the very beginning) she would be a cute potential love interest with a “Rivals to Lovers” trope(KILL ME NOW, HANA!); instead David fell in love with Penny, who is less daring but she knows him, understands him, and she is more of a supporter, more like Leliana or Liara(From DA and ME) but during their relationship is Penny the one who starts every passionate act of love(David needs time to understand what is appropriate to do and what is not, which it’s like living in a world where the political fairness mixed with religious bigotry won so much that even thinking about holding hands with someone is treated like sexual assault...so you can imagine what kind of panic has David when he wants to begin a common kiss without knowing if it’s okay or without having her consent or without reading her mind first).
David’s biological family wouldn’t approve(Father doesn’t care, Mother is a ghost who embraced the same ideals of death eaters, and Jacob thinks that David deserves someone stronger and more trustworthy)
David’s foster-family(Badea’s family) is happy as long David is happy and smiling.
Penny’s family, is pretty much okay, her father is like super happy, her mother is quite a sceptic because she knew David’s mother(and when she changed ideals from not-racist to pureblood supremacist, their friendship went to hell) while Bea...i think she would be conflicted like “Oh my god, my hero is related to us! David is my brother(in-law)” and at the same time “of course, my perfect sister got the strongest, the nicest student and hero of Hogwarts! It’s the cherry on the cake of her perfect life!”
🕊️ Would your OC ever get married or are they already wed? If they’re married, describe what their wedding was like! If not, describe their ideal wedding (or do this if you feel like it anyway!)
in Auror!AU, David and Penny get married during late spring, a place with flowers everywhere, a peaceful atmosphere, and as a “gift” their friends invited Metallica to play at the wedding(including David’s favourite song: Nothing Else Matters), everything is fine, it’s like a huge reunion of friends celebrating just one couple.
in Cursebreaker!AU(and by extension DA!AU, that is a route of Cursebreakers!AU) they never get married but they’re always being a couple, you can’t have one of them without the other, they would love the wedding like Auror!AU, but they’re busy, constantly travelling around the world, that for their wedding they’ll wait for their retirement...but they share a couple of enchanted rings and they’re their own engagement rings.
🍼 Does your OC have any children or want children? What names would they pick? Are they good with kids or a complete disaster?
In both AUs David and Penny want and will have kids, but it’s still a WIP idea and in general I’m not into the fan kids-thing(especially with a game still going and without its ending), so I don’t think I will ever talk about their kids directly(aside some random mentions, if it happens).
In general David and Penny as parents are nice, they don’t spoil their kids but they’re there for helping them, trying the most diplomatic approach with them, teaching them their specialities like CQC combat, magic, cooking and giving them hints about aspects of life but without going too far, in fear of spoiling them(and by extension making harder for them to be independent or learn things by themselves)
☕ Give us one (or more if you feel like it) of your OCs deep dark secrets! Why do they keep it hidden? Spill the tea!
It’s not a secret, simply a hidden complex of David, the reason why such a kind but at the same time violent, never truly killed anyone is because he is scared(not enough to be a boggart) that if he will be discovered, even if he will kill a very bad guy(like Voldemort or something) he would be hated forever by anyone. Actually, this secret fear/complex makes his cynicism lighter.
🍂 What are their opinions on the different seasons? Which one do they hate and which one do they love and why?
Spring: Quidditch season begins! Yuhu! Also, Winter is over, I can take some rest from panicking over the fear of getting frostbites and chilblains because of my metallic limb! Hooray!
Summer: I wish I have my left arm back...at least I could refresh myself with a nice swim...i also must avoid every very hot place like Africa...so I can avoid to burn myself because my metallic arm can be extremely hot to actually being able to cook bacon on it.
Autumn: Best Season! Like Spring but without risk for allergies, but way more humid... I hate humidity!
Winter: Frostbites, chilblains...no quidditch and not enough clothes to keep myself warm, I hate my automail in winter! Will I ever be happy with the weather? At least I can enjoy every single PDA from Penny, or dating in Jacob’s room, with the excuse that is the cosiest and warm room in Hogwarts, and that is totally accessible anytime we want...not the best date idea, but at least we don’t freeze, YAY!
🦋 If your OC could change everything (or just something) about their life would they? What would they change? What do they think would happen if they did? What would their loved ones think?
in the question about wishing something I explained what David wanted to change(through a wish, probably something with a genie XD)
Here I will say what David would change and why he would want to change that thing:
David would totally change his friends’ addiction to him.
Why? I have a headcanon where at some point Jacob, would use the connection they both have to each other to discover something about David’s social life and learning that David is so reliable that his friends are addicted to him to the point to seek for help surprisingly often even for being friends.
David will be forced to talk with Jacob, and Jacob brings up the matter, disappointed (like a parent discovering that their kid is hanging out with a bad company) after a long talk where David tries everything to defend them...he had to admit that Jacob is right: His friends are needy and addicted to his help.
So, David would change his friends’ addiction/neediness to him...for the sake of learning if they love him because he is reliable(and by extension they need someone who helps them) or because they really care about him…
It’s not about what would change, or what he thinks would happen if his friends change or what someone else would think...it’s about David insecure about his friends and his mixed feelings about the fear that maybe his friends care about him because they’re taking care of who is basically the solution to all their problems.
💐 Does your OC like flowers? What are their favourites? Do they keep a garden of some sort? What flowers would they use in a flower crown? (and if you like, research the meanings behind those flowers!)
David loves flowers, just not enough to have a garden(mostly because with his schedule of being in Hogwarts for 7 years and then either being a busy Auror or a nomad/wanderer curse breaker). In a flower crown meant for himself, he would use: Genisteae, Columbine/Aquilegia, Amaryllis and Gardenia…those flowers are what would describe David much as possible(but in general, David is not the person who messes with flowers, for him are just nice to watch them and smelling them).
In a flower crown that he would give to Penny, he would choose Agrimony, white Clover, Tillia(also known as linden in Europe or basswood in North America), and red Tulip.
PS: all the meanings of these flowers were found on Wikipedia(i don’t know how trustworthy is Wikipedia, everyone is telling me that is the wrongest website ever for this kind of things)
🌼 Write a short drabble from your OCs POV meeting their LI (or if they don’t have a love interest, their best friend. If you don’t want to do a drabble, describe their first meeting instead!)
“What a day...it’s the weekend but God said no! Snowstorm!
That jerk...it’s not enough removing my sense of touch for almost five years?!”
What a day... I supposed to hang out with my friends during this quiet period where for some reason or another, the Stone Curse took some weeks off but this bloody snowstorm came in and ruined my plans together with Barnaby’s flu…
[Flashback] This Morning...
< David! Thank god! You’re here! Where’s Barnaby? > yelled my boss at the Reserve for Magical Creatures while he is fast-walking to me, with his face that showed all his worries…
< Barny got flu...what’s happening? > I asked quietly while my hands were freezing in the pockets of my red coat.
< THIS BLOODY SNOWSTORM! EVERYTHING IS HELL! I NEED HELP AT THE RESERVE AND TODAY IS YOUR FRIEND’S TURN! > he kept yelling at me while grabbing me…
[End of Flashback]
“And before I knew it, I was kidnapped by my boss, during my day-off, ready to enjoy some hot soup at the Inn...and I spent it by repairing barns, lighting fires and lamps, and cooking soup for the creatures while I was starving and freezing...and now is late evening, still hungry and freezing...Barnaby, you owe me a day!”
< You’re too kind David...> I said, trying to verbally pat my own shoulder…
< As a matter of fact, this is what people expect from the Hero of Hogwarts...but people should learn to be grateful first... > said a voice while actually patting on my right shoulder
I happily turn so I can see her, blessed and feeling reassured to listen to her voice but then I remember in what situation I left…
< Sorry for... > I got interrupted before finishing the sentence by her index finger gently pressing on my lips...
< Like it was your fault for being dragged to work at the Reserve during your day-off, or for Barnaby having a flu…it was funny though, a big guy like you, being taken and pulled by the collar of your coat to work, it was like watching a baby walking a dragon on a leash! > she smiles and laughs a little while she covers her mouth during that short laugh
I smile scratching the back of my head, and checking around before meeting her breathtaking blue eyes, I still can’t believe how can she deal with these situations where I end to postponing our dates...and still choosing to stay with me: She could have anyone and she chose me over everyone, Penny Haywood your existence fuels my happiness!
< Wake up, love! > she snaps her fingers a couple of times laughing joyful
<Ehg! Sorry, I was thinking if I did everything at the reserve...> what an excuse, now she will think you’re a workaholic! You Moron!
<...and even if you didn’t, it’s your boss’ problem now...unless he begins to pay you in days-off from work...and in that case, I’ll be happy to help you to negotiate with him > another laugh but this time I actually laugh a little
< Only if I could spend all of them with you and nobody else... > Fantastic, now she’ll surely think that you’re jealous and possessive... I can’t believe I said it!
She blushes a little < It sounds like heaven > she simply caress my right cheek for a couple of seconds <...but first: let’s go to dinner! You worked hard during a snowstorm since this morning and you deserve a meal...this time it’s on me, my love! > and suddenly she begins to push me to the Three Broomsticks Inn until I start to walk and only then she grabs my right arm smiling while walking next to me...
“Dear ungrateful annoying Truth/God, I’m busy with my absolutely magnificent, wonderful, beautiful, mesmerizing girlfriend, until Monday...mind your goddamn business!”
🥀 Has your OC ever been hurt by someone they love? Ever been betrayed? Abused? Attacked? Give me the angst! (if you’d like, write a short drabble about it!)
David? Everything can hurt him, he doesn’t fear monsters/beasts or criminals, he fears words and the emotions you can put in those words; many people used the wrong words in the wrong moments(aside from the basic game):
We have his father saying multiple times that David is only a future sidekick for Jacob and explaining that he’ll only be a feral boy unable to truly be civil or humane destined to be on a leash forever. His ghost-mother being disappointed in him for not being a pureblood supremacist and befriending everyone without really caring about their family’s status.
We have David’s friends every time they say that he is obsessed with the vaults/his brother and the same exact friends asking for something meaningless in exchange of something important for the sake of Hogwarts’ safety.
We have Dumbledore being the worst counsellor ever always bringing out the rage repressed inside David with his words like at the end of the fourth year, a dozen of students died along the year but Dumbledore focus in punishing David first...their conversation went violent...David’s right knuckles were bleeding trying to destroy Dumbledore’s barrier and actually punish him for those hurtful words.
We have Jacob, arguing with David about how dependent his friends are and even more depressing...David agreeing with him at the end of the conversation, admitting that his presence(with his selflessness and kindness) made them addicted to his help admitting that for most of them he doesn’t feel he cares for them in a “we’re friendly and we got each other’s back” way but more “these guys are one of the few THINGS I have, and I’ll take care of them” with a little bit of “I’m so independent that I can’t even find a way for them to be helpful for me...aside be my eyes and ears and gather Infos for me...”
🏞️ If your OC could travel to anywhere in their world where would they go? Why? If they could live there would they?
David loves places near the sea/ocean(like the Philippines and its many islands), or with a great view from above(like Hogwarts) and yeah he would totally live in this kind of places, and he would love every second of it.
🏡 Describe your OCs ideal house! Give us a tour around! What’s their garden like? Their bedroom? Kitchen? Where is it and how many people live there?
David ideal house(it doesn’t mean he will ever have it though) it’s on the countryside, he loves big open spaces, pretty much like the movie version of the Burrow, big house with a lot of space inside and outside, not much else. The bedroom is actually small but cosy, it must give the “finally I can rest” vibe. The kitchen is quite a punch in eye to see, it’s like a spaceship trying to look classic but it’s quite organized, after all, it’s David’s kingdom.
The house is occupied by David, Penny, their two kids, but he can handle at least other 5 guests...if the guest doesn’t mind to sleep on the couch or sleeping in the same room together, we can arrive at 8 total guests.
🔪 Has your OC ever killed someone? Ever had to defend themselves against violence? How did this make them feel? Or, alternatively, has your OC ever attacked someone? Seen someone die?
HPHM? Is basically a constant fight to the death with almost everything and everyone, David is born in a family that values strength, speed, and power in general, you either survive or you don’t...also he is bound to violence(sadly) because his biological mother cursed him by triggering murder instincts(towards anything that David thinks it’s filthy/unworthy to live) when someone says his second name(Jager). David never killed(during HPHM) because he is scared to lose himself while in curse breakers!AU(with DA!AU and TW!AU) he kills quite much, dark spawns, dragons, bandits, ANDERS, a bunch of Qunari in Kirkwall...he is never proud of it, but usually when he doesn’t think that a person may change for the better...he rather kills...
💎 Does your OC collect anything? Is there a reason? When did they start and is it beginning to turn into a little bit of a hoarding issue? What do they do with their collection?
Before going to Egypt to learn the transmutation of Ice/water, he was used to collecting knives for the sake of having many throwing knives, so he collected knives for the sake of using them(then he got the ability to transmute weapons from using the humidity in the air or water spells as materials). Meanwhile, he discovers his talent in cooking and begins to collect in a huge book his favourite recipes. After that is not much about collecting unless it’s a weird item or something funny.
In the Cursebreakers!AU (Witcher!AU the one where David and Penny end in the Witcher-universe) David goes nuts for Gwent and begins to collects cards for the sake of having nice pictures of people(like Geralt, Ciri, Yen and etcetera), he basically plays Gwent only with Penny and their adopted daughter Alexandria Elen Riannon Haywood.
In general, David doesn’t collect much, unless it’s something that may be useful or some magical(but quite uncommon/unique) artefact.
📚 If your OC was given some kind of forbidden knowledge, what would they do with it? Would they tell anyone? Use it for evil or good? How would it change their outlook on life, if at all?
David knows how to make a Philosopher's stone...he simply tries to send Nicholas Flamel in jail for his crimes(mass murder for the sake of creating the Stone). He never personally use this knowledge(but connected to the 🔪 question, sometimes he transforms people in the Philosopher’s stone and uses the stone for healing extreme wounds either on himself, the people he cares or innocents...it’s his way to transforming a bad guy in a decent guy even in death...not exactly ethical and in fact he lives conflicted...but he didn’t find other solutions in lawless places...or where the laws are blurry(like in Dragon Age or the Witcher).
🌗 Early mornings or late nights? What do they spend their time doing during these hours?
He is a morning person...but he suffers from insomnia...and Penny loves to keep him awake at night ;) (if you know what I mean...and I mean cuddles mostly u.u)
👑 If your OC was made royal (or is royal) how would they use their power? Are they a good leader or bad? Do their subjects like them or is it ‘off with their head’? Do they enjoy being royal?
David hates politics, he likes to be influential but not having full political power, maybe for fear of doing something bad for the sake of a good cause, or the fear of being corrupted by power...but if he is destined anyway to be a royal, he would be a forgiving(but not stupid) king who always will take care of his nation/city first like in the song Cost of the Crown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMbbbopeVfc
💕 How is your OC like with physical affection? What are their boundaries? Do they enjoy being touched or is that a no-go? Is there any reason behind this?
David express love with his body! He rather shows love through actions rather than words. He loves hugs and kisses. It’s basically the most common way for him to actually communicate his feelings without feeling embarrassed or shy.
☁️ What’s something your OC wishes they could forget? Why is this? Or, what is something that your OC has forgotten? (or do both!)
Absolutely Nothing, he wants to remember correctly everything happened in his life. Jacob sealed his memories for a while and I wrote a lot about what kind of consequences it brings
David feeling like the last boy in the whole universe(between an absent father, a dead mother, a brother trapped in a vault, and the inability of living at Badea’s house) feeling alone and thinking he is an only child, tried to resurrect his mother, failed and got punished by God by losing his sense of touch….
Yeah, David learned the lesson of having a bad memory/forgetting things...
👀 Describe your OC through the eyes of another person! (bonus + specify who)
I’ll try a thing:
< No shit! I swear he was that big! > he said still not believing to what he saw
< Bullshit....> she answered with a sceptical tone with her arms folded under her chest
< I swear Rivaini! I just saw a guy tall almost like a Statue of a Paragon, with shoulders large enough that you could build a house on him, he was walking in the Hanged Man! >
< Oh-ho! > gasped the woman
< What? > he comes closer to the pirate with his voice filled my curiosity
< Did you see his face? > she asks meeting his gaze
< He was wearing a red hood but by the smell of it; either he was dead or he eats dark spawns for breakfast, I was scared myself: that guy was enormous! > he laughed at the end
Again Isabela gulped when the dwarf mentioned the hood when surprisingly a more joyful voice joined the conversation...
< He was walking with a pretty blond lady that smelled like herbs and flowers? >
< How do you know it, Daisy? >an answer clearly shocked came out the mouth of Varric.
< I don’t see why Isabela looks so pale then...probably it’s just David and Penny..and he is not scary, he is like a mabari, big but with puppy eyes >
< I guess we didn’t meet the same guys, Kitten, I was in Denerim when I met them...when some thugs were walking to me, one of them grabbed that blonde's juicy ass...that red hooded man kill all of them...BAREHANDED, destroying half of the furniture of the Pearl! Trust me, Kitten, when I say that his gold eyes were like the eyes of an angry high dragon who just decided that you’re his next meal > she gulped like only remembering that bloodbath was enough to fuel some kind of nightmares
< The David I met, spent a month playing with the kids of my clan, telling them funny stories of the place he came from while Penny was helping Marethari...He is like Hawke, you should be afraid him only if you’re his enemy...but he is cool, funny and reliable > narrated with her gentle voice
< Now I’m curious! Imagine what kind of stories could tell a dude that big! > commented the dwarf thing to hide his smile
< Mostly stories about in his adventures, like the time he rode a Griffin! That was a good story! > clapped her hands a couple of times joyful like she is asking for an encore.
< Ehm guys...less talking more survive-the-dungeoning! > coldly said Hawke while scratching his head.
❓ A random fact or short drabble! Or make up your own question to ask the OC!
He likes to Sing? What are his favourite songs? People like listening to him? Does he play some instrument?
He likes to sing, he memorized a lot of songs, he prefers songs with a slow rhythm but he is good with ABBA’s songs, between Badea’s mother, Penny and Ben, he literally learned from them to sing them while he dances(badly but in a funny way), mostly during his adulthood you can listening to him singing Nothing Else Matter by Metallica or some MJ’s songs like “They don’t care about us” or “Dirty Diana”. Thanks to the Weird Sisters and Jae Kim, got an odd interest in learning to play the bass and bagpipes, he rocks with the bass but the bagpipes...he still needs some practice. Good or not, someone who sings brings some joy in Hogwarts, so it’s appreciated anyways.

Find A Song inspired by taking a leap of faith
JayWood - Moon Cats
What started out as sad, bedroom jangle-pop songs about how miserable I was, slowly began to evolve – both style/direction wise – over time into the more psych-funk sound that you hear today.
The inspiration behind my new single, “Moon Cats,” came from taking a leap of faith. I went through so many lyrical drafts to fill in the song; however, I soon realized that its instrumentation says more than any phrase ever could.
“Moon Cats” works like a visual piece. The verses are like decompression, whereas the middle part repeats three times in an effort to pump you up to take the plunge. At the end, after the build up, angelic strings are there to represent what could be on the other side of holding yourself back. (press release)

Winnipeg, Manitoba -- JayWood, the project of Jeremy Haywood-Smith, will be releasing his upcoming album Slingshot on July 15 via Captured Tracks. This week, he shared the album’s penultimate track “Thank You,” a bright song that spans just under 4 minutes long. From the uplifting instrumental to the positive lyrics, “Thank You” is an ode to those who are no longer in Haywood-Smith’s life but also a celebration of the past and what’s to come. With the heavenly strings and a steady yet funky rhythm section, JayWood brings a ray of sunshine on the cloudiest of days.
On the track, JayWood shares: “‘Thank You’ is a song that’s dedicated to the folks that aren’t really in my life anymore, but more importantly it’s for my mom who passed away back in 2019.I feel like this song kinda wrote itself, it felt so easy to put together because I knew the core of what I was trying to get across. The demo for this song felt super strong but after Jake and I spent some time expanding a few ideas, the song really blossomed into something I couldn’t ever imagine.”
