and I apologize
Sometimes you're sad, and you tell me it's nothing
And I brush it off because there's always something
But I need to change my perspective
from Love in Slow Motion by Ed Sheeran

Tony Visconti somehow managed to find himself quite successful in many periods, though there was one era he struggled in. Well, his 80's weren't really that good, since he kept chasing what made him influential like his collaborator Bowie. However, the latter did manage a couple of the successes during the time, whereas Visconti seemed adrift. Then again, was the choice of his productions to blame? I mean, Altered Images would have probably been a great fit for him on their debut, but he co-produced their Bite, which got them moving towards the protosophisti-pop that didn't make them any favours, though I still think the platter's way too maligned for what the disc actually is, i.e. a transition that thanks to their consequent break-up didn't lead to anywhere.

LISTEN THROUGH SILENCE: An MSR Playlist ⤷ Part Two: Scully
It feels close to you, somehow, to say your name out loud.
playlist / songs ↘
SIX by Sleeping at Last / Similar to with Mulder, I haven't really thought about what enneagram I think Scully might be, but the lyrics of this song are so her. Plus: "I want to believe—no, I choose to believe—that I was made to become a sanctuary." I constantly think about "I want to believe" in the context of Scully because that's very much Mulder's thing, but it takes on so much significance when you think about it relating to Scully (just like Mulder choosing not to believe things takes on special significance as well). Mulder wants to believe in so many things, but Scully wants to believe in Mulder—and she chooses to believe.
RENEGADE by Big Red Machine & Taylor Swift / Very very Scully to Mulder. I mean— "there was nowhere for me to stay, but I stayed anyway" and "you fire off missiles 'cause you hate yourself, but do you know you're demolishing me? And then you squeeze my hand as I'm about to leave" and "it's time, you've come a long way / open the blinds, let me see your face / you wouldn't be the first renegade to need somebody" and "is it insensitive for me to say / get your shit together / so I can love you." But "open the blinds, let me see your face" really gets me because Scully truly does see Mulder, she sees him better than anyone ever has.
BETWEEN THE LINES by Sara Bareilles / Oof, this one huuuurts. I chose the title of this playlist from this song ("listen through silence") because I feel like it goes pretty well with Mulder's playlist ("amidst the chaos," also from a Sara Bareilles song) and because it's so much of what Scully does while Mulder learns—she listens through silence and reads between the lines. ALSO: "I'm queen of attention to details, defending intentions if he fails." Scully is forever the first to defend Mulder no matter what he does, always from a place of love.
BREATHE by Lauv / There are so many songs that could be applied to both of them, but for some reason or another I choose it for one of their individual playlists (this being one of them). I think one of my favorite parts fits Mulder better—"I should leave 'cause you deserve better"—but overall this song made me think of Scully, especially during I Want to Believe. "You're my all and more, but I need room to breathe."
WATER WORSHIP PRAY by Grace Power / This song also makes me think of I Want to Believe, and I especially love this song for Scully because of all the religious imagery. "How can two people fall apart when they both want the same thing? How can my happiness be you, but I'm not happy at all?" OW. And also: "First peace I ever knew / Can't love you well enough to keep you or enough to let you go / I'd rather stay in purgatory with you than in heaven alone."
IF PATIENCE DOESN'T KILL ME by Alison Sudol / I'm very aware that this is a pretty specific sound that not everyone will love, but I love Alison Sudol and I feel like this song is perfect for Scully so I kept it anyway. I just feel like the lyrics fit her perfectly—"if patience is a virtue, I abound / ... / if patience doesn't kill me, I'm yours." And it's where the description comes from—"it feels close to you, somehow, to say your name out loud." It feels like they constantly are calling for each other both because they want them there and trust they will be there, but also because the simple act of calling for each other makes them feel less alone.
GIVE UP THE GHOST by Rosi Golan & Johnny McDaid / Another song I love (I would've titled this "Quiet the Noise" if I hadn't already used that as a playlist title) that takes on new meaning when you think about it in an MSR context. Ghosts take on a different significance when thinking about Mulder (also, @leiascully just KILLED me with her fic and "I don't love anything more than I love you, Scully. Not even ghosts." Literally what the fuck). Even the very beginning of this song—"come here, it's all worth the fight when it's you, dear." And "slow down, we're losing the meaning of words now / quiet the noise 'cause we made a mountain of minuscule things." And Scully really does quiet his noise.
THE BEACON by A Fine Frenzy / The lyrics in the gifset are from this song and if I could write out the entire song without it being ridiculous, I would. I swear this could truly be a song written by Scully about Mulder. I mean, just starting with the first verse: "You say your time has come / you're tired of waking up / don't be obscene, I can't conceive of living without you / You say you drag me down, no one should want you now / I start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say I'm not allowed to." And then, AND THEN the second verse: "you were a child forgot / lessons of love untaught / now no embrace can quite replace the one that never found you / I was raised tenderly / all that was taught to me / I will apply / Your parents tried, but they didn't know how to." Like. Okay. Sure. That's fine.
SATURN by Sleeping at Last / I know I'm not alone with this one because I've seen multiple videos of them set to this song, but I chose to put it on Scully's playlist because it really makes me think of Mulder's abduction arc/when he wakes up in "Deadalive." Just imagine her listening to this song sitting by his side, holding his hand, willing him to wake up. GAH.
YOU MATTER TO ME by Jessie Mueller & Drew Gehling / This is another song I was debating for both of them, but the first verse especially makes me think of Scully: "I could find the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes / they've seen things you never quite say, but I hear / come out of hiding, I'm right here beside you / and I'll stay there as long as you'll let me."
SOMEONE WHO LOVES ME by Sara Bareilles / This song wrecks me and has some of the most beautiful lyrics I've ever heard. One reason I love it for Scully is because of the hug at the end of "Irresistable." This is another song I would have considered for a playlist title ("my home, my heart") if I hadn't already used it before. But the way it's sung always gets to me—"my home, my heart, thank god you are someone who loves me," like she's exhaling into the safety of his arms.
I F*CKING LOVE YOU by Zolita / The song pretty much says it all: "what if I let it slip, tell you that oh my god, I fucking love you."
WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT by Emily James / I absolutely love the first part of this song when she says "I just wanna say that I'm not going anywhere anytime soon unless it's with you." What really made me think of MSR was this, though: "'cause we've been busy lying to ourselves, swearing it would never work / promising that we were just friends / it's funny how it doesn't make sense / and then it does." And I love the idea of Scully thinking again about how different her life is, how this is so far from where she thought she'd be, but with a little bit of wonder: "who would've thought that it would've been you?"

Here’s the timeline on Say Don’t Go, per Diane Warren:
"Say Don't Go" was written toward the end of 2013, and Swift recorded a demo of the song on New Year's Day 2014 alongside Warren in the studio. Many people wouldn't want to work on a holiday, but the "Lavender Haze" performer was committed to the song.
So maybe late November (before Red tour in NZ/Australia), or even later December, then demo on NYD.
If we are looking at the Haylor timeline, this is:
- just after she and Andrea go to London for house hunting in mid-November 2013.
- back in LA on the 18th of November, Courtney Cox (who had probably just hosted one of her fabled dinner parties) follows them both, Ed, and her future partner Johnny McDaid on insta (Ed got the invite from her Cougar Town co-star Christa)
- November 21st — H is photographed with Kendall for the first time. Taylor posts a tweet quoting Colbie Cailllat’s Hold On.
- they’re maybe spotted in England on December 17th with Ed?
- she is maybe hooking up with Snap Chat’s Evan Speigel over the holidays?
It does not end well, as per the Lover Diaries
Tumblr media
The fatal, final text exchange between Siegel was incorporated into a 2019 script about his life that was getting shopped around, on which Lainey also reported, calling back to the above article.
Some mileage is gotten, too, out of Spiegel's tabloid-friendly dating life, including his brief romantic entanglement with Taylor Swift. During a text exchange, the singer writes, "Hamptons? ;)" to which Spiegel responds, "Want to be straight with you, I don't have time for a relationship rn :(."
"Feel free to write a song ;)" he adds, eliciting a "F-ck you, Evan" from the pop star.
Anyway: context!

Shape of You / No Diggity mashup — VoicePlay music video
youtube
One of the recurring themes in most genres of popular music is physical attraction, particularly when it leads to flirtation and infatuation. Although these two songs were released twenty years apart, they express very similar sentiments, which allows them to combine in a very satisfying way.
Details:
title: Shape of You / No Diggity mashup (feat. Matthew Darren)
original songs / performers: "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran; "No Diggity" by Blackstreet, feat. Dr. Dre & Queen Pen
written by: "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran, Johnny McDaid, Kandi Burruss, Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs, Steve Mac, & Tameka "Tiny" Cottle; "No Diggity" by Teddy Riley, Chauncey Hannibal, Lynise Walters, William Stewart, & Andre "Dr. Dre" Young
arranged by: Geoff Castellucci & Hannah Juliano
release date: 29 March 2017
My favorite bits:
those crunchy opening harmonies
Matthew's smooth, confident solo melody
the rhythm section holding down a solid groove
the way the lyrics from both songs weave together and work as counterpoint for each other
Layne's syncopated descending tom run at the end of the first chorus
Matthew running all the way from his falsetto down to his chest voice on ♫ "Catching feelings is a no-o-o-o" ♫
Earl climbing into the rafters with ♫ "grab on my waist and put that on me" ♫
passing the lead down from Earl through Eli to Geoff
the bounciness of ♫ "I'm in love with your bo- bo-dy" ♫
the gradual layering in the ♫ "C'mon be my baby" ♫ section
Layne's excellent scratching
everyone's reaction to Eli's final riff, and him walking away from their disapproval

Trivia:
This recording was part of the audition process for VoicePlay's new member to replace Tony. Although he ultimately wasn't chosen, Matthew did later participate in their mega-collaboration video "Just Sing" during the 2020 lockdown.
The guys knew Matthew as a fellow theme park performer, particularly as Beast in the live Beauty and the Beast show at Disney World.
Matthew's long flowing hair was the result of growing it out for five years in preparation for donation to Wigs For Kids. He had over a foot cut off a couple months later, shortly before his wedding.
The guys usually wrangle their own clothes for streetwear looks, but on this occasion they enlisted a stylist friend named Tanya Buzu. I'd say she did very well. 👍
The video description on YouTube includes the line: "Last night you were in my room, and now my bed sheets smell like food. No Diggity. No Doubt." (Geoff is very silly sometimes.)
That memorable rising hummed hook in "No Diggity" was sampled from the song "Grandma's Hands" by Bill Withers.
Ed Sheeran originally started writing "Shape of You" for Rhianna to record, but realized during the process that it would be better suited to his own sound.
Their buddies The Filharmoic released their own cover of "Shape of You" the day before. The groups joked on Twitter that they needed to coordinate their schedules better.
VoicePlay teased further behind the scenes content in a Patreon promo on social media.

Release: December 2, 2022
Lyrics:
I bring her coffee in the morning
She brings me inner peace
I take her out to fancy restaurants
She takes the sadness out of me
I make her cards on her birthday
She makes me a better man
I take her water when she's thirsty
She takes me as I am
I love it when her mind wanders
And she loves it when I stay at home
I know when she's lost and she knows when I feel alone
From all my airs and graces
To the little things I do
Everything is pointless without you
Of all the dreams I'm chasing
There's only one I choose
Everything is pointless without you
I light the fire when it's cold out
And she lights up the room
I hope that she'll love me forever
She hopes I'll be back soon
I take her out to the movies
She takes away my pain
She is the start of everything
And I'll be there 'til the end
I love when she laughs for no reason
And her love's the reason I'm here
She knows when I'm hurt and I know when she's feeling scared, mm
From all my airs and graces
To the little things I do
Everything is pointless without you
Of all the dreams I'm chasing
There's only one I choose
Everything is pointless without you
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
You'll wait for me too
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
You'll wait for me too
Everything is pointless without you
From all my airs and graces
To the little things I do
Everything is pointless without you
Of all the dreams I'm chasing
There's only one I choose
Everything is pointless without you

a playlist i made based off the film- its about an autistic 17 year old and his brother making sure a man is buried with his brother
its super cool
the picture is of a 17 year olf boy with brown hair and wide shoulders in a long sleeve skater shirt with orange ribbing around the neck and a yellow printed image on the front obsured by his crossed arms, he is leaning forward and looking questioning and like why brother are you like this towards his brother with brown hair in the drivers seat, they are on the motorway. In the other front seat is a woman with light brown ginger hair which is curly wearing a coat which is bluey green and a yellow beany - this info is implied and just her shoulder and the edge of all these things are in. The brother is wearing blue navy ribbed polo neck jumper and isn't looking happy while the woman is enjoying herself making fun of him. The boy has blue jeans on and there is a blue filter over the top. It is set into a beige grey rectangle with a darker rectangle with the songs the playlist contained.
It is just called The Last Right
there are 13 songs and the spotify symbol is in the right corner while the play button in white and the forward and back arrows to the left in grey are on the right side underneath above the darker box.
Under the title on the left next to the square picture- at the far end at- the top is my account 3139 swordthing and under that in a white box in small but capital letters it says preview black font. The title is big white block and in bold. The account translucent and greyer and smaller.
1.As We Ran -The National Parks- 3:20
2.Let's Hurt Tonight-OneRepublic- 3:14
3.Fantastic Day-Haircut 100- 3:13
4.Linger-The Cranberries- 4:34
5.Asshole-Denis Leary- 4:26
6.Shark Attack-GROUPLOVE- 3:58
7.This Town-Niall Horan- 3:52
8.Lost Sparks -Canyon City- 3:45
9.We Are One-Wild Youth- 3:03
10.This Is How You Walk On - From "Gifted"-Gary Lightbody, Johnny McDaid- 4:06
11.Leaving Town-Jedisol- 2:34
12.Dreams-The Cranberries - 4:31

I only got to listen to Harry’s leaked song today and it’s reeaaaalyyy good but it got me think about “music identity” if I can word it this way, but how we can listen to a song and automatically link it to some artist, like when I listened the song I instantly thought “shiiit, this sound so much like snow patrol” and bingo! Harry wrote with Johnny McDaid! How cool it is for an artist to make their thing their own identity that when people listen/watch it it makes they automatically think about the person that created it, like you know when a movie was made by some directors without even actually knowing it was made by them by just taking a look at the film aesthetics and it’s soooooo cool! It makes me think about how it would be if we got an album/project made just by Harry, lyrics, melody, visual stuff, and I’m not belittling the work of those that creates with him, they got their talent and own merits (despite of what I think about they personally) it’s just that it would be really interesting to see Harry create a “world of his own” you know like that Marc Jacob (Jacob by Marc Jacob for Marc) meme - I really wanna know what’s his “identity” “rawly”? (So sorry if I didn’t expressed myself correctly or in a way it made sense, english is not my first language)
ooo interesting I didn't know that!! And I get that. I'd also be curious with what he could come up with. He has a good team but I often wonder how exactly it's split up between them all

music game rules: shuffle your “on repeat” playlist from the music service of your choice and post the first 10 tracks.
Methodology: I broke up with my streaming services and only just started Bandcamp, and my little mp3 player was too cheap to include a shuffle function (and more than half the time the skip button rewinds instead), so the following results have been achieved by dumping any song I’ve listened to more than three times in the last week into VLC and hitting shuffle there, with acknowledgement that the sample is skewed because some stuff I would really like to hear again and again is just too far away on the playlist for me to navigate to.
"Moshi” - Pegboard Nerds & Tokyo Machine
"Can You Hear Me?”  - Renaissance
“The Awakening”  - Sharaab
“Undertow” - Djimboh
"Big Sky” - John O’Callaghan feat. Audrey Gallagher
"Hero” - Pegboard Nerds feat. Elizaveta
"Music Rescues Me” - Paul Van Dyk feat. Johnny McDaid
"Oqiton” - Jeremy Dutcher
“Firkantfar”  - Ylvis
“Apollo Ape” - Paul Hartnoll
