Becky Apples (Imaginary ver) and Horse but if they were anthropomorphic horses

What songs remind you of each of the clones? I know you have a Thad playlist but does it apply to the rest of them too or are there different songs?

oh interesting!! i think i have more songs vaguely suiting the mood or scenario of a Particular Moment in the story rather than songs for specific characters tbh... but i can think of a few character centric ones off the dome:

"Honeywell" by Clem Turner is like the CRAYDL song for me, both the mood and the echoing vocals, like how the lyrics are coming through a huge cavernous space. Also the lyrics themselves fit how I interpret CRAYDL pretty well.

My faux-theater kid ass has a disease where I am constantly re-contextualizing showtunes, which is why the song "Lifeboat" from Heathers sticks in my head as a Nine/Nathaniel bit. Specifically right before he gets pushed over the edge.

"MY OH MY" by North Bloom is a song with the Six vibe. Lyrically yeah, kinda, if u take it as him talking to his own temporally displaced self, but mostly musically? I know nothing abt making music but the drumbeat being so prominent and interrupted by all the synthetic noise and distortion before coming back again idk idk! Six vibes. I also just like the delivery on the last 'life was like'. Almost screamed suddenly pulled like a punch on the last word hOO its in my 2023 spotify wrapped for a reason.

Some songs I listened to that all broadly applied to the tone of Thad and Bart's grand time travel tour included a lot of similar-ish tunes? "She's Losing It" by Belle and Sebastian, "Poison" by Stick and Poke, "Make Your Own Kind of Music" by Cass Elliot, "Southern Nights" by Glen Campbell, "Daydream Believer" by the Monkees. Songs that you could put to a heartwarming character-building montage of various stops through time. Very few have applicable lyrics I am in the business of vibes.

Speaking of which, "Cicada Days" by Will Wood has the Five vibes for me. I like the understated relaxed groove of the first half, and then the crescendo towards the bridge, suddenly feeling breakneck and out of control. It's like a lullaby turned rock hit its great.

Uhh, that's more or less what I can think of rn! Thanks for askin

Sometimes you just need to put Becky Apples on super loud to drown out your thoughts

(Question comes from this post by @pancake-breakfast . My other answers are linked in my pinned post.)

Bonus: What’s up with West Covina and/or Becky Apples?

I actually think I thought about West Covina’s purpose in the story for way too long. I believe she is mostly just meant as a joke because you expect her to be Glendale in disguise but then she isn’t. But here’s an overanalysis anyway if you want one:

West Covina, despite not being Glendale and therefore not wanted by the Moletaurs, acts really suspicious throughout the episode. After she introduces herself to Wammawink she points to Horse with a „What’s happened there?“ and then leaves while Wammawink’s distracted.

In her song she seems to understand Glendale because she points out that holes are good for hiding stuff, but at the same time she assumes Glendale must be a criminal if she’s „probably in jail“ and calls her a liar. Before she gets arrested she says that she likes Hootenannies.

I have two theories about her purpose beyond just a joke in this episode and both are not really solid. One ist hat she’s supposed to represent how people – especially in law enforcement – seemingly can’t differenciate POC very well. She’s confused with Glendale because they’re the same species, even though unlike Glendale West Covina has a mustache and wears glasses. Though I feel like if that was the supposed message the writers might have taken it more seriously.

My other theory ist hat West Covina might be related to Glendale. Glendale sings in S2E5 that she doesn’t have parents but used to and it’s unclear if they’re dead, left her because of the stealing or if she „stole“ them (and they’re lost somewhere in her portal tummy). Seeing as West Covina and Glendale look so similar they get mistaken for one another even by Glendale’s closest friends this could be why. Though once again I think if that was the intention then the writers would probably have made it clearer.

As for Becky Apples, I think she examplifies what Horse could have been if she never realized her trauma and worked through it. She doesn’t seem to care who is giving her orders, does her own thing (in battle) without coordinating with others first and is an efficient killing machine. She will listen to commands from (probably) anyone if she knows she gets an apple for it and is paranoid to the point of sleeping with her eyes open.

The only time we don’t see her cool and collected is when Comfortable Doug appears. While this might just be because it was sudden, I think it could also be because she is Gary’s horse and Gary died imprisoned by the Moletaurs. Who knows, maybe he was for her what Rider is for Horse and what we see of her in the show is just what she became after Gary’s imprisonment/death.

Also, she works as a first hint that the General is not actually as good as he appears. Knowing that she went on a murder spree is the only time we see him genuinly happy. Any normal person would have been just as freaked out about this as Rider.

🎶 Keep it locked up, keep it sealed tight

Shut it down and turn away

Hope you've stocked up, it's a long night

Nothing good is meant to stay 🎶
