I know I went on a raving tear about the glories of companion-less playthroughs earlier today, but what if I told you that I also spent today beginning to re-record (and slightly re-write the lyrics of) an obscure old song of mine (originally co-created with a band that's been defunct for 14 years) so I can stretch its meaning juuuuust enough to theoretically apply to a particular favorite companion?

Edited to add that it’s in D Minor because noir.

Edited again to note the vibe will probably be a lot like some of the tunes on my Nightwarden After Hours playlist.

#it's for a compilation of my solo stuff from the past 25 years #you know how best-ofs have that one “new” track #well this is that except it's an old song just re-recorded #remember kids follow your muse #even if nobody will ever listen to or buy your creativity

IN THE HEIGHTS countdown: 10 DAYS!

song for today:

ABUELA: remember the story of your name... it was engraved on a passing ship on the day your family came your father said: “usnavi that's what we'll name the baby.” USNAVI: it really said “u.s. navy” but hey... i worked with what they gave me okay...

#song for today: hundreds of stories #ok now everybody shut up and listen #another song that was cut from the movie #remember when i said they changed the lyrics to paciencia y fe?#so in the obc version abuela claudia actually said she was the one who won 96k #and she was wondering what to do with the money #so of course she told usnavi about it and now they are discussing it #i have no idea why they changed it but i like the original version much more because holy fuck #usnavi and abuela claudia have such a sweet relationship #and you can see it in this song #see this is one of the reasons the obc recording is better and in this essay i will-#(also excuse me but the story of usnavi's name is the best thing ever ok???)#it won't be long now*#Spotify

the run of songs in my back was a bridge for you to cross that goes sliver of ice -> can't -> scapegoat might be the best sequencing decision on an album ever

#this is my one no-skip album so in my humble opinion every song off this album is the best thing ever recorded but those three!!!#anohni #antony & the johnsons #anohni & the johnsons #music #my back was a bridge for you to cross

sometimes u put yr playlist on shuffle a song comes up and you have to put another song in the queue immediately as soon as it comes on bc it makes you think of that song

#this is abt aura by ghost and pals Sry everytime i hear it im like a fiddle This is just like devil went down to georgia and then i have to #put devil went down to georgia in the queue #i think its a fiddle innit.. it sounds like a fiddle but im also NOTORIOUSLY bad at telling instruments apart. <- guy who once couldnt tell #if something was a guitar or a piano i actually rly rly rly rly dont wanna get into it okay.#i guess you didnt know it but i am a fiddle player too 😏😏#sry. the other thing this post is abt is kiss me and ladies in their sensibilities sweeney. obviously those r connected #but if ladies in their sensibilities comes on by itself i quite literally couldnt be assed so everytime i have to put kiss me on instead an #add lits to the queue. bc them together is like the best song i ever heard its just that the beginning of lits is just kind of boring It #does get stuck i my head sometimes but the supreme part is the end thats Basically just a reprise of kiss me #but also theyre kind of the same song anyways at least o wowww i was just typing in tempo with the fiddle that was awesome. at least on the #2012 soundtrack aka the best one talk to the hand or dont i dont wanna hear it. well i do want to hear it it being the 2012 london cast #recording of sweeney todd starring michael ball and imelda staunton. ANYWAYS!! in that one the songs lead in to eachother #ive listened to all the other soundtracks but idr if they do that.. well ill tell u the movie doesnt bc it doesnt have kiss me. which is #just so. the johanna anthony romance doesnt rly have much substance in the first place and yr taking away like. their duet together. ok....#AND yr taking away the end part of lits? the best part of that song? whatever its fine its fine.#if anybody is curious my ranking of casts is 2012 > obc > movie > 2006 i fucking hate 2006 or 2005 or whatever i hate it sm it makes my #blood literally boil im sry. i fucking LOATHE it idk what it is well i do but this post is already 5000000 years long. idt the new one is #out fully yet... i was ok with the songs i have heard but idk where id rank it yet. i should prolly check if the full things out yet omg so #me and my lampstie (way of saying my siblings name if theres something deeply wrong with you) can listen :]

Guess who's tying out for school auditions with a recorder again

Ft. The modeling clay I stuck onto the camera so it can't show my face. Cause after 3 retakes over the span of 2 days of course it's the position where my face is most obvious that gets the best audio quality

#fweeet #whoop #the song is umiyuri kaiteitan btw #or tale of the deep sea lily if youre looking for the eng name #at least i think thats what the eng name is #you can tell i still need practice #the one i filmed yesterday was the best take i ever caught on camera (aka did not fuck up second half of the song)#BUT because of the camera position you can only hear the recorder and not the instrumental so it sounds like SHIT #ughhhhh

it sucks when ur trying to find more music similar to a specific song but all ur “songs like ___” or r/ifyoulikeblank google searches are yielding NOTHING because everyone else looking wants more music similar to different criteria of said song that you do. point #834904985403 as to why we need to bring the hyper specific microgenre names of electronic music to all genres (joking. ....unless?)

#but for real ive been fighting for my life for like MONTHS #trying to find more music that rocks as much as even a FRACTION of your best american girl #but all the recommendations are all like 'here is more guitars and women singing' and im like NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND #its not just women with guitars its THE DISTORTION the fuzzy noise the way it builds her specific singing style the power the seriousness #the REVERB. the reverb...............................#even putting aside the transcendental revelations about identity that song gives a lot of us whenever we hear it for a second #i also think its just like one of the best rock songs ive ever heard #i like the other songs by the same artist ive heard (although shes like. a super diverse musician so like)#(every other song i hear from her is totally a new thing LOL its good!! i like that kinda thing)#but there was something like. like i said before: transcendental going on with that song specifically #the depth of her voice amplified by the reverb... the scream of the distortion guitars crashing in at the end of the like bridge/break #a piece of studio recorded music that emulates so perfectly the sound of a life performance with just like the ambience of it all #sorry for musicposting (said to the tune of sorry for party rocking) again. i will continue my search #for now i at least have the company of mitskis other rock-y stuff which is also good. i really like fireworks especially

#i still think it's absolutely insane of her #after we all survived 3 hours in rain at the gillette show #to give us not only 2 of the biggest DUD surprise songs ever #and for me personally 2 of my BOTTOM TIER SONGS OF ALL TIME like i won in ever other regard but surprise song total strike out #BUT THEN TO SAY THAT FUCK SHIT LIKE #laughing with my friends and gf about this and just like.........#unreal like i couldn't believe after all that she gave us ASS FUCK ALL for sticking it out with her #and if taylor swift not giving me anywhere decent surprise songs at my show is the worst of my problems in my life #then i'm doing excellent i'm doing just fine its just SO FUNNY and SO DEVASTATING #i have like 10 other way more important and incredible life changing things i'm doing this year so i tried twice for metlife and gave up #like you know getting MARRIED and going to RENAISSANCE with amazing seats and going on a 2 week trip to Italy with my fam #BUT i'm never skipping a metlife show again thats the lesson #and we're only on night one. i can't imagine the rest of this weekend #one of my best friends and fellow maroon stan screen recorded our texts last night while trying to screen record the live #we should get an oscar for that drama. i wish i could share it with you people but i will not be perceived.#we were CRYING watching it back like holy shit #what a night and i was a little drunk lmaooooo #her friend had the funniest text of the night tho when she said in the middle of our breakdown #Metlife N1 marked SAFE from wtny!!!#aDKFJADKFJAKDLFJADSF LIKE TRULY #the way n1 was so certain they'd get it that n2 and 3 weren't even worried #and now n2 and 3 are going into their shows TERRIFIED

I know theres like people obsessed with Nirvana's version of Where Did You Sleep Last Night but like you need to listen to the Lead Belly version, hell, listen to Lead Belly in general. Kurt absolutely wanted people to listen to Lead Belly. His blues interpretations of folk songs, murder ballads, prison songs, and his own original blues songs are so foundational to contemporary interpretations of songs like "Midnight Special", "Black Betty", the aforementioned "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?", and "Goodnight Irene". And quite frankly without Lead Belly so many of what is considered "iconic" white rock n roll bands and musicians would not have existed, people like The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Pete Seeger just to name a few.

#i go back to his version of In the Pines every few months and it really is one of the best fucking songs to ever exist #i also love how he sings When I Was A Cowboy #i always wonder what modern recording would make of his voice given that he was known to have a super big voice #anyway listening to the white stripes always ends up with me just going through classic blues instead lol

Oh if i have 100 bucks to spare other than for vacation and a laptop im getting mo chen voicebank for synthv and remaking my nieyao fansong tbh.

#lodia sayings #nobody cares about original music and only one person apparently tolerates to hear me sing #so i got only one like on that song even though its one of my best ones ever.#the instru is extraordinary.#its also probably the fact its a fansong #but like. i rlly came through when it comes to this instrumental its just so. its so good thats all.#so anyway if its synthv im sure ill cater to my synthv audience.#also my recording was not perfect bc my mic isnt great at recording the range i sang in #probably bc idk how to sing professionally lol. but i think im slightly quieter when i sing lower #so the mic does pick it up but with some parasite noises #and bc i suck at editing audio <3 #this is why i have synthv now anyway.#music tag
