[whore-man]

OH BOY DO I HAVE A LIST (apologies for it being so. but tim is my fav ever and i have So Many Thoughts about him)

Putting them under the cut bc 1 there's. a lot. and 2 there are major spoilers for s3 and s4

not putting everything bc i have 200 songs on my tim playlist and that would be insane but I'll link the playlist under the cut as well if anyone wants that (I'll leave it at the top)

dear god this got away from me but do enjoy

bear with me i am bad at working tumblr

playlist! the preview looks to only show the first 100 songs but trust me There Are More

list! (some are very sad, others are very not sad, and others are a fucked up in between)

(ALSO preemptive CW for suicidal ideation for a lot of these songs {this is a Tim playlist, after all}, marked with Tim's shitty mental health)

1. Army Dreamers - Kate Bush (this is both Tim about Danny, and later {post mag120}, others about Tim)

2. The Stand - Mother Mother (Tim in his slut era, what more is there to say)

3. Against the Kitchen Floor - Will Wood (slut era but angsty this time- Tim and his canon shit mental health while never having a stable relationship and just meaningless hookups with leads)

4. Lent - Autoheart (honeslty I originally put this on my playlist for the lyric 'I don't want to be your personally assistant' and the general Jon + Tim dynamic in s2-3)

5. Cryptid (Mothman) - Ratwyfe (part of my gender non conforming Tim agenda, also just a song I think he would enjoy)

6. Montreal - Penelope Scott (canon typical Tim's shitty mental health BIG TIME what more can I say (also the lyric 'It's nobody's fault but I think we all know That I won't make it to Montreal' and 'Go get laid in Montreal The world's so big and I'm too small You guys are different you could have it all I hope you make it to Montreal'))

7. A Sadness Runs Through Him - The Hoosiers (title is pretty self explanatory, canon typical Tim's shitty mental health)

8. The Main Character - Will Wood (back to fun! my fav god complex song and also very much the person that Tim pretends to be in s1, happy song, sad context)

9. It Gets Worse Every Minute - The Taxpayers (Very applicable to TMA as a whole, but also just very much the vibes I get from Tim in his descent into full on Shitty Mental Health in s3)

10. Crack a Bottle, Run a Bath - Shayfer James (sort of serious one but not really? It's a song I feel is very Tim vibes, although the lyrics aren't 100% him)

11. Juliet - Cavetown (added specifically for the first line 'can't get your name past my lips like a slur' and Tim's reluctance to even talk about Sasha even though he loves and misses her in s3)

12. Danny Boy - Celtic Woman (oh boy. Oh Boy. this song genuinely makes me sob when I listen to it and think about Danny)

13. Rule #4 Fish in a Birdcage - Fish in a Birdcage (It's a song about brothers with a faint hint of tragedy, what more can I say)

14. No Children - The Mountain Goats (canon typical s3 Tim's shitty mental health, him just giving up and wanting to leave but also still caring about Jon and Martin even when he'd rather just be able to die without regrets)

15. Girls & Boys - Blur (Tim Stoker being canonically bisexual, what more can I say)

16. Brave as a Noun - AJJ (Canon typical Tim's shitty mental health, 'it's sad to know that we are not alone and it's sad to know there's no honest way out', very unable to leave the institute vibes and also the whole song is just. god I've sobbed to it)

17. Shutup You're Stupid - That Handsome Devil (back to silly slut era Tim again, this song just makes me giggle 'shutup you're stupid just hold my friggin hand' COME ON giggling so hard and kicking my feet)

18. Long Time Friends - The Living Tombstone (anger as a long time friend, pushing people away and giving in to the need for revenge, very Tim's shitty mental health)

19. That's Not How The Story Goes - A Series of Unfortunate Events (no one gets a happy ending in this podcast, this song really goes for all of TMA)

20. Chaotic Gender Neutral (once again pushing my GNC Tim agenda, what more can I say)

21. Murders - Miracle Musical ('All for nothing at all' Tim's sacrifice being for nothing, the Unknowing would have stopped anyways without him dying. sobbing.)

22. Foolishly Wrong - Autoheart (this is in between because the song itself sounds upbeat but the lyrics are so heartbreaking, very JonTim {either platonic or romantic} starting to fall apart from s1-3, makes me sob)

23. Born2Run - Penelope Scott (it's kinda silly but also Tim losing trust in everyone in s2-3 and his world collapsing around him while struggling to keep his anger in check)

24. Just Take My Wallet - Jack Stauber (Not!Sasha, 'you took away my friend, my buddy')

25. Have a Seat, Misery - Shayfer James ('have a seat, Misery, of all of my friends, you are the one I like best', canon typical Tim's shitty mental health)

26. Come Over (Again) - Crawlers (added for the specific lyric 'take her name out of your mouth you don't deserve to mourn,' Tim at anyone who brings up Sasha, especially Jon)

27. Wrecking Ball - Mother Mother (Tim always being self destructive, not really caring about his own health or safety, Tim's shitty mental health but he's being silly about it)

28. November - Sparkbird (a lot of this song, but especially the lyrics 'can't pick them out can't press them in, I'll never hide my scars' and 'familiarity breeds indifference' and the last line 'can I explode now', very s3 Tim's shitty mental health {kinda})

29. Ex's & Oh's - Elle King (back to Tim's slut era, him canonically romancing pencil clerks for information is so special to me)

30. Mostly Major Chords - Shayfer James (Tim and Sasha, a hypothetical relationship over the years, not necessarily romantic TimSasha, also works platonic, feels hopeless, like a big 'what could have been')

31. Lone Star - The Front Bottoms (specifically the line 'if you still believe in the lord above then get on your hands and knees and pray for us', and that one Wolfy animatic with Tim and Jon and that song that made me cry, Tim's shitty mental health)

32. Cocaine Jesus - Rainbow Kitten Surprise (the whole song is a bnager, but specifically on here for the line 'When you find an old picture of us, and you clear away the dust, I hope you miss me sometimes,' very Sasha and Tim once again, they make me sob)

33. Home - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros (THE TimSasha song, both platonic and romantic, makes me feel so happy and sad and nostalgic at the same time that I explode on the spot every time I hear that whistle intro)

34. Dani - Madilyn Mei (while the song is technically about a girl, it is very easy to listen to it as Tim talking about Danny and it makes me feel so sad I'm physically ill)

35. We're Alive - Cavetown (this whole song makes me sob {are we sensing a pattern} but it's also just so hopeless and at the same time so hopeful? and for some reason my brain just connected it to Tim and Would Not Let Go)

36. Rule #16 Movies - Fish in a Birdcage (Both happy and sad, a sort of 'what could have been' for Tim, what he wishes his life might have turned out to be if his brother didn't die and he didn't get sucked into the institute)

37. Screwing in a Lightbulb - Everybody's Worried About Owen (VERY Tim's shitty mental health, also a sort of letter to Sasha after she's gone, wishing she was back, specifcally the lyric 'ever since you left, you wouldn't be aware of all the things that change', does go more into breakup sounding, but shhh we don't have to see it as a breakup)

38. Kiss Goodnight - IDKHBTFM (indulgent TimSasha song, technically can be read as platonic? idk man I'm aroace I just see a song and vibe with it, but also it's sweet and reminds me of them circa research era)

39. Welcome Home, Son - Radical Face (I have never sobbed more times to a single song, so many connections to Tim and his relationships all falling apart as people die or move on and god I'm listening to it currently and there's tears in my eyes I can't see my computer)

40. Your Voice, As I Remember It - AJJ (very self explanatory title, very Sasha and not Sasha, the lyrics speak for themselves: 'I long to hear your voice as I remember it, but now I have no choice but to remember it, no recordings were made, no mp3s, no AACs, no WAVs')

41. So Alright, Cool, Whatever - The Happy Fits (Tim being a hopeless romantic lowkey, this song is just half silly half giggling half Tim banging his head against a wall {don't check my math} and I just love this song)

42. Until it Doesn't Hurt - Mother Mother (this song has had me in a VICE GRIP ever since I first listened to it, it's very Tim being self destructive and Desolation/Slaughter Tim coded)

43. No Longer You - Jorge Rivera-Herrans (Tim's shitty mental health, he's not making it home and he's coming to terms with that, 'a brother's final stand', also shout out to @/formerly_darth on tiktok for this amazing edit to this song and TMA, seriously please go check it out and check out their account the edits they make make me want to scream /pos)

44. Tongues & Teeth - The Crane Wives (Tim growing more and more angry over time, pushing people away, thinking he's just going to ruin every relationship and knowing he's not going to make it out the other end)

45. drip drip drip fall - Ewy (Tim's shitty mental health circa late s3, anger at both Jon and Elias, references to bitterness around the Eye, in lyric 'I'm starting to ponder what you head would like like on my wall? Would the blood just drip drip drip drip fall, I'm getting in your head, I'm ten moves ahead, you can't kill me, I'm already dead')

46. leave me for dead - GAYLE (Tim's shitty mental health, very JonTim in late s3 and a hypothetical s4 in which Tim is haunting Jon and wanting Jon to just put him out of his misery, also found this song because of a Wolfy art that made me genuinely lose my mind and almost throw up because I thought about Tim too hard /vpos)

47. Innocently Annoying - Elysewood (s2-3 canon typical lack of trust and Tim's shitty mental health, VERY much Tim's hatred of Jon and Elias and just wanting to be a nuisance to them and sarcastic and a prick but in the way only Tim can be)

48. Where the Devil Don't Go - Elle King (in my head I have the perfect fix it fic where Tim finds out a new way to get out of the Institute and he gets to go 80mph down a flat midwest interstate while listening to this song. I just think it would be cathartic for him.)

49. My Ugly - Cloudfodder (very much s2-3 bitterness towards Jon and Elias but mostly Elias, just Tim being an annoying bitch /pos and sarcastically flipping him off with words alone)

50. I'm Going to Forget you Exist - Lillian VanDaam (NotSasha and Tim losing Sasha, oh my god this song is so perfect for them I'm half convinced it's a a fan song because jesus christ, lyrics 'What a killer costume, you look just like her, but some twisted horror novel tone deaf blur, what a killer performance, but not on the stage, you have a smile covered in poorly painted rage')

okay uh. that. was more than I intended to add. apologies (for the deception) for the lengthy post, but I hop you at least enjoy the reqs?

PS! I also have a Tim's Kayaking Playlist if that's more your jam- more songs I think Tim would listen to—some more believable than others—while kayaking or just in general, some are very jokey but like in the way that Tim would be jokey (ex. that one song from Titanic) also the first track. uh. real comedian i am. honestly forgot i did that til this playlist just loaded up on here. whoops?

Okay Tim Stoker nation I need your help. I’ve made character playlists for both Jon and Martin and now I wanna make one for Tim. Give me any Tim coded song recs you have 😈
