FROM MARGARITAVILLE TO HEAVEN

I’ve been pondering the life of beloved singer/songwriter/entertainer/business mogul Jimmy Buffett, who died recently of skin cancer. Did you know he was a billionaire? Buffett parlayed his 30 albums and hit song “Margaritaville” into hotels, casinos, retirement communities, bestselling books and even his own brand of beer. He sold more than 20 million CDs and had legions of “parrothead” fans…

I’m so glad that Season 3 basically confirmed one (well basically two) of my biggest Wrecker headcanons- he would love to fish and would love boats.

#I’ve headcanoned this for so long #the man would love a good day of fishing with some nice ice cold beers and Jimmy Buffett playing #I feel like Hunter would be the other one to like fishing (and beer) so they’d go together #Crosshair doesn’t go because him and boats do NOT mix #Echo is sunbathing on the shore because mama needs a tan and a drink with an umbrella #tech would also go fishing with them but not every time #he would hang out with echo and Crosshair on the shore #but he would def bring his and Phee’s kids when they’re old enough to go boating with uncle wrecker #Omega DEF goes fishing with them and she’s the one who caught the biggest fish ever #they made her take a photo with it #Batcher likes to go in the water but she refuses to go on the boat since Crosshair doesn’t go #star wars tbb #star wars the bad batch #the bad batch #tbb crosshair #arc trooper echo #tbb tech #tbb echo #tbb hunter #tbb headcanons #tbb wrecker #tbb omega #bad batch headcanon #bad batch headcanons #wrecker headcanon

my music taste is so immensely fucked guys. the alt pop/ various heavy metals/ rap/ classic rock/ 1990s rock/ hozier/ folk/ punk fusion playlists are out of fucking hand.

#i cant even describe to you what fresh hell my liked songs is #the kendrick v drake beef put me on a kendrick lamar kick #but im also in the middle of a huge deathcore and thrash phase #but im also relistening to a lot of numetal and early metal bc my girlfriend is starting to get into that scene #lots of korn and stuff #and then ive been spinning the new jhariah album like crazy #btw go stream that its great #and honestly some of the older twenty one pilots #i will never be free #nor will my taste in music ever make sense #catch me vibing hardcore to johnny cash and jimmy buffett #and then it switches to the new babymetal and electric callboy collab #who even knows dude

As someone who only knows a couple songs, can you recommend some jimmy buffett songs that get missed a lot? I like margaritaville and come monday and it’s 5oclock somewhere but other than that I don’t know a lot

My mom and I made a playlist of our favorites back when he passed last year:

Spotify Link

But in no particular order my favorites are:

Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes

Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On

Tin Cup Chalice ("I wanna be there/ Wanna go back down and and get high by the sea there/ With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine")

Little Miss Magic (which was written for his daughter Savannah)

Bubbles Up (which actually came out last year)

Cowboy in the Jungle ("24 hours, maybe 60 good years, it's really not that long a stay")

He Went to Paris

Trip Around the Sun ft. Martina McBride

I Have Found Me a Home

Tonight I Just Need My Guitar ("Don't need to feel important or famous/ No limos or my little Nash car, one lucky man/ With my feet in the sand/ Tonight I just need my guitar")

A Pirate Looks at Forty

Coast of Carolina ("And the walls that won't come down, we can decorate or climb/ Or find some way to get around, 'cause I'm still on your side/From the bottom of my heart")

Son of a Son of a Sailor

One Particular Harbor

That's What Living is to Me

Live Like it's Your Last Day

I could keep going, like Come Monday is certainly up there as well but you named that. I also went with more 'serious' songs since my initial point was to expand beyond the 'party' songs. But I'm of the opinion that his best songs are a bit of a mix, the vibe that he's relaxing and hanging out because that's what brings him peace, and peace is all he's really searching for.

#I grew up listening to this man #the album 'songs you know by heart'? yeah. i sure do.#several of these are off 'songs you don't know by heart'#i know there are songs im forgetting bc i know i forgot them when i made the playlist initially #and i did skim through the playlist to jog my memory #whats funny is as much jimmy buffett as i know he is not the artist whose discography i know the best #as a person who is terrible at remembering what album a song is on #there is one artist you could probably name any song and i could tell you which album it's from originally and possibly the year it came ou #i do enjoy talking about music i just get self conscious about it lol #anyway these are my faves i hope ive helped lol #jimmy buffett #music #anon #ks chats

Someday I Will

I see a white sail skipping 'cross a blue bay And I say someday I will I see a young man strumming on a green guitar And I say someday I will

I don't have a plan, it's not that kind of thing I'm not Martin Luther King I don't have a dream, it's just sometimes I know That's the way I'm supposed to go

I see a flying boat And I get a lump in my throat And I say someday I will Someday

So whatever thrills you, anything you love to do Just say someday I will Don't need to know who may help you make it come true Just say someday I will

Don't have to work it all out, don't have to tear it all apart All you need's a place to start And if it never worked before, try it just once more That's what your heart is for

Whether it's big or small If you have a passion at all Just say someday I will Someday

Someday I will Someday

#jimmy buffett #far side of the world #someday i will #for any of you who get stressed about new year's resolutions

I’m so over emotional right now. read that Jimmy Buffett died surrounded by his friends and family and started crying. not that he died. that everyone he loved, that loved him, was there with him in his final moments. and his dogs! his dogs were there, too! something about it is so beautiful and nice and fuck, I am bummed he died, but that he went out surrounded by his loved ones makes it seem okay. I’m glad he got that in the end. That knowing you’re loved and you’ll be remembered. I think that’s all we can really hope for in the end.
