#buddy Holly everyday

[biceratops7]

So about Buddy Holly…

Guys my heart is gonna burst 😭, so I was watching the trailer and pausing it every two seconds to catch every detail (you know, having a normal one), when I got a bit fixated on the music.

I had the idea to sing along to the parts of the score that were recognizably the melody to “Everyday” in order. (So the tune would play the equivalent of the first verse, then some vocalizing would happen, then the tune again but this time it’d be the second verse, so in and so forth.)

And you won’t believe what verse is playing over that scene where Aziraphale flashes back to the candlelight dinner, it’s a real shocker /s:

“Everyday, it's a-gettin' faster

Everyone said, "Go up and ask her"

Love like yours will surely come my way

A-hey, a-hey, hey”

…So uh… putting aside the fact that the implications are very adorable (encouraging Aziraphale to just have a nice time with Crowley and don’t overthink it), it also sure sounds familiar.

MARK MY WORDS, something Happened at that damn dinner. He worked up the courage to invite Crowley inside for what was an obvious date, then Crowley probably, you know, acted accordingly, and Aziraphale got overwhelmed. Like babe no offense but I feel like you went to fast for yourself, lmao.

So now let’s pay close attention to the actual part containing sung lyrics, with the only discernible lines being:

“everyday, it’s a gettin’ closer,

Going faster than a roller coaster,

Love like yours will surely come my way”

So interestingly “love like yours” plays specifically when the trailer reaches its climax, flashing image after image to tell us to expect some element of chaos and urgency in the events to come. This is maybe a reach but it’s gotten me even more convinced that the romance(s?) aren’t gonna simply be a very important B plot but directly effecting whatever strangeness/ danger is occurring in the main mystery.

…Look I’m really gunning for an “oops, we broke the universe with gay pining” angle, lol. First of all that would just be funny. Second of all, I think it would be utterly fascinating to explore any number of implications Aziraphale and Crowley’s whole thing has for the natural order of things. Or even the possibility that the “Great Plan” was about reconciliation instead of war, but perhaps more on that in a later post.

Crows are gettin' smarter!

Ineffable Bureaucracy - Everyday (SPOILERS for Good Omens Season 2)

[fuckyeahgoodomens]

hello! first of all, thank you for being such a wonder in this community, I wouldn't know half of the GO news if it weren't for you :)

secondly, I transcribed the newspaper that Aziraphale is reading in the trailer, if that's of interest to you? (the question marks are where words are covered or cut off by the screen)

A strange phenomenon has got the locals of The Resurrectionist pub in Edinburgh scratching their heads and tapping their feet. For no matter what song they put in in the pub's jukebox, it will only play one tune: Buddy Holly's Everyday. Proprietor Mr Tulloch is at a loss to explain it.

"I took over The Resurrectionist over twenty years ago and the jukebox was installed by the previous landlord, and it has never given us a moment's trouble until recently. my regulars noticed that all the records seem to have changed into this Buddy Holly song? I'm quite partial to a bit of Buddy Holly myself but everyone in the pub is getting a bit scunnered of it, to be honest with you.

Asked what he thinks could be behind the phenomenon, Mr Telloch is completely stumped. "Of course, I naturally imagined that this was a prankster at first, but I've taken to sitting up all night and watching over the (???) whenever i put new singles (???) honestly swear that no-one(???) pub and yet in

Next column:

... 'Everyday'. I've had the engineer out umpteen times, but he says it's never been tampered with and can't explain it either. It’s cost me a fortune in visits."

News of the strange occurrence is beginning to spread and Mr Tulloch admits that people are starting to turn up at the pub to check it out for themselves. "I was worried at first that people (???) off. There is only so much

Next column:

of one song that (???). But now we're getting (???) wanting to (???) Maybe (???) for business (???)

Hiya! :) Thank you, yeah :)! Also had it in my todo list but there is so much wonderful things today! :)

play a nightingale sang in berkeley square by vera lynn or everyday by buddy holly in any public space and see who starts crying

[bl0ndwave]

My shuffle suggested me Everyday on Spotify today (thanks to Good Omens S02 of course), and I was amazed how christmassy does the song actually sound. I mean, just browsing through the shops, searching for presents while listening to “everyday, it's a-getting closer” like it's about Christmas? And the bells in the instrumental part? Wow. It didn't strike me until now.

(The fact that the author's name is Buddy Holly makes me even more convinced.)

This entire time, I thought the song had an important message, that it was a warning or Gabriel trying to tell them something BUT NOOOOO

BOY WAS JUST S I M P I N G

Beelzebub said ONCE that they liked the song and this man made it play forever in their pub 😭

[ethical-murder]

and they were roomates (oh my god. they were roomates)

[aduckwithears]

Hearing Buddy Holly’s Everyday:

Before S2: Good song! Catchy! Neil and Terry thought of it as the unofficial Good Omens theme tune!

After S2: Feeling quite unwell. Re-experiencing trauma.
