JOHNNYSWIM Fathers Day with Abner Ramirez and Bruce Sudano

[anthonysmakebelieveblog]

Shout out and huge thank you to @whatsgoingonovahere for this amazing find (also link to the original post to credit the person who recorded this).

Ant singing with the band Johnnyswim on a song they co-wrote back in April of this year in Nashville.

Ant posted snippets of attending the Diamonds Weekend a few days later... why was this appearance not publicized to Ant fans prior so they could attend? (Looking at you Ant's PR team 👀)

Permission/invitation/begging you to go off on your favorite music from Wilder Woods and Johnnyswim? (Also hiiiii! I'm glad you're also enjoying my old marvel content lol)

AAAAAH okay apologies for how late this is skdjglfsd but hi!! I'm so glad I found your old Marvel stuff lol I've missed Nat and Clint so much. I've loved JOHNNYSWIM for a while, their harmonies are amazing and Amanda's voice is freaking gorgeous?? And I enjoy the lyrics they're evocative and pretty and I really like the relationship in them. I also love that they work with Drew Holcomb sometimes. Also Amanda and Abner are so cute on their own and I love the little laughs and interactions that you get on some of the recordingss. Look I'm usually a friendship over romance girlie but man Johnnyswim makes it compelling.

...this got longer than expected so I'm putting the rest under a cut

I don't know if I could pick a favorite song except maybe Diamonds. But I also reallyyyy love Villains, which a bit odd because it's about. a couple fighting with each other. But really it's about a couple being aware of the conflict and really wanting to work past it because they really do still love each other?? Also let's be real it's catchy.

...Writing this out I'm realizing how much I associate Johnnyswim with Scroldie from DuckTales because a lot of the songs fit sooo well lol

Oh man Monte Carlo has to be a favorite too AAAAAAHH I'll drive cause you're precious cargo. It's the come-here-you-don't-have-to-carry-it-all-alone-let-me-help-you that I LOVE. Need to write a drabble or something based on that.

Wilder Woods I'm realizing I'm newer to?? NEEDTOBREATHE is my current favorite music artist overall. Wilder Woods is the songs that jumpscare me when they come on on shuffle and I hear Bear Rinehart's voice but it's not a NTB song 😂

I adore the sound of it though - I'm not a music person and my standards of Do This Sound Good are rather low (mostly coming down to a good bass line), but Wilder Woods scratches all the itches. I should listen to Fever / Sky all the way through at some point though

Feel and Sure Ain't have to be a couple of my favorites because aghhh romance. Everybody needs a place to fall / but when I knew that it was you, it was too much to lose is SUCH a great line. I really relate to Be Yourself though, ahhh I wish I could figure out how to let it all show.

Anywayyy I need to go to sleep lol and idk if the above makes sense but i do really love them. what are your favorites??

Class Favorites: Rooting For "Everybody" Black Year 5

For the last 5 years I've made a mini playlist featuring all of the Black artists that were in the mix with me during the year. 2024 was a short year across the board, so I apologize for how mini, this mini playlist is. That being said, it's mostly good stuff in there and I think you should give them a try if you haven't already.

Note: Everybody is in quotation marks because not all skin folk are kin folk. That was proven after this playlist was already made, when not-our-boy Nelly and CO. decided to preform at certain presidential parties. Essentially I didn't remove anybody, but know that I don't rock with that behavior, I think they're goofy for doing it and I am not rooting for them at this time.

Edit: I added one more track to this playlist as I was wrapping up the big playlist, to acknowledge someone's presence.

~~~

Your fingers tremble as you bring them to your lips. Fingertips trace along the skin there, a fresh coat of tears making them soft. The dusk breeze glides against your skin, sweeping your hair gently in its chilled fingers. Feet propped up against a chair on your lonely deck, you peer out towards the field that lingers beyond the wood railing. Quietly, you contemplate a night on this deck some weeks ago. The breakup wasn’t messy. It was quiet, lingering, profoundly painful. Closing your tired eyes, you can picture Charles’ face from that night. 

It was a night far too similar to this one, and maybe that’s why you find yourself struggling to hold on to your resolve tonight. Weeks of arguments via late night calls and furious text messages had led to a less than spectacular weekend together. With both of your demanding schedules, Charles, a driver, and you, a student working your way towards a doctorate in biochemistry, the overlap in free time was next to nonexistent. Blood, sweat, and endless tears have gone into making your relationship work. When everything went the way it was supposed to, there’s nothing in the world that could have touched you two. Time spent together was usually enough to make the entire world stop and watch; which it frequently did.

Charles had flown in to see you on a long weekend in the fall. The October weather was gorgeous in the northwest where you’d decided to attend school. Unfortunately, your tempestuous mood didn’t align with your surroundings. A dinner and a night together was plagued by phone calls and text messages from your respective occupations. The two of you ended up getting in yet another argument about needing time to just be a couple. It was a subject you knew all too well, arguing in circles about it for weeks now. The problem was that you both loved what you did so much that it kept you from loving each other the way you both deserved.

Your blue dress flowed in the wind while you stood in front of Charles. His eyes were bright and shining with tears. His neck was red from emotion, a sharp contrast to his powder blue button down. At first you thought it was funny how he accidentally matched your sundress. You loved him in that shirt. You loved him in that shirt. 

“What do you want?” He asked, his voice broken and soft. Usually, you loved hearing him speak. But hearing his voice this way was a sick type of torture. You hated that it was your doing.

“I want…” Your voice wavered, unsure of what to say. There was so much to say, but no words to say them with. I want to be there for you. I want to love you. I want you.

You approached him then, taking his face in your shaking hands. His face was hot against your cold fingers as you slid them against his cheek, wiping away his tears. Tears of your own were sliding freely down your ruddy cheeks, slipping down your neck. He was beautiful, even when he cried. But there’s no way you were going to allow him a lifetime of spending his tears on you. 

“I will never stop loving you, Charles. Even past the day I die, I will love you. But I’m going to have to love you in a different way now. I have to love you by saying goodbye.” Your voice wasn’t clear by any stretch of the imagination, but it was firm. This had to be the right thing to do. You would make it work because it had to, there was no other option. 

Without another word, he swept your hand from his face and into his own. He brought it to his chest, holding it there with infinite tenderness. It was a touch you wouldn’t ever forget, one that lingers to this day on the edges of your fingertips. He held your tearstained face with his other hand while he left one last kiss on your puffy lips. For a couple of seconds, with a furrowed brow and suppressed sobs, you tried with every thread of strength left in you to memorize exactly the way he felt. 

When he broke away, he left a broken heart in his wake. His body fell away from yours, severing the last touch you’ll ever share. Wordlessly, his last mercy, he walked into the house and out of your life. Gripping the railing, sobs wracked your aching body. Pain so profound and complete had never befallen you before. There was no precedent for the hurt that this end brought into your life. You were left in the middle of a tossing sea without a light towards home. There was no home, not anymore.

So, here you sit, an endless stream of tears pouring from your broken soul. You might have promised Charles a life where he wouldn’t have to spend his tears on you, but you never promised yourself that reprieve. You two were perfect in nearly every way, except for the ones that decided fate. Now, you live in memories alone.
