for ur playlist ask game thing i got 2, if that's cool: come sail away on luther's playlist & a boy named sue on diego's playlist (:
of course it's cool :) if i ever turn down a yap session about music and the umbrella academy, i don't want to know that day
okay! so first
Come Sail Away - Styx
listen here!
okay i'm just gonna write as i listen first and then edit this down okay so first off the song is by styx which is interesting because an in show 'klaus song' is renegade, also by styx, which i think gives a nice parallel to how luther wishes he could be like klaus (so carefree lol)
and also, just the space-vibes of course. its a song about space travel and aliens that look like angels. luther vibes amiright
but lyrically, it's very luther, very hopeful (very demure). i think that is something so interesting about luther, for all his gruffness. he is incredibly earnest and full of hope for a long, long time, it really only crashes down when he learns Reginald didn't open anything he sent him from the moon.
i think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
we lived happily forever, so the story goes,
but somehow we missed out, on our pot of gold,
but we'll try, best as we can to carry on
do i even need to say anything-- if that ain't luther's pre-apocalypse mantra, i don't know what is. the idea that the Umbrella Academy wasn't a farce is something he holds onto for so long. that maybe his siblings were just jaded to the point they couldn't see the promise, the potienial. that it wasn't all fruitless abuse.
AND THE BEAT DROPS
we all know Luther loves a good groove and if Come Sail Away is not a good groove, i don't want to talk to you.
i thought that there were angels, come to my surprise,
we climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies!
this also just strikes me as a luther line too, his love and joy of space, the way i can picture him looking up at sloane with such affection because she's like his awesome floating space angel
I can also just picture little luther absolutely breaking it down in his bedroom to this like he puts on the record while he's studying or whateve but then as it picks up he's just crab dancin' all round that joint.
additional viewing: this scene from Freaks and Geeks (great show, with great writing and an amazing soundtrack--shows like this are why s1 of TUA make my brain sing) if Luther didn't know the song beforehand, i feel like this is something that could very well happen to him. wants to use his one promised dance with his crush on a slow dance, but then it ends up being a synthy rock disco banger.
damn that got long lol I think I will do Boy Named Sue as its own post so people aren't stuck scrolling forever and ever
hope that was vaguely coherent! thank you so much for the ask :)
Send me an ask about a song from my playlists for the characters of the Umbrella Academy!

have i been insane about this throughline on here yet?
#N posts stuff#community#nbc community#abed nadir#LIKE... hello?#was going through my notes and renoticed this and like.#Abed having a Recurring conflict of feeling like a decidedly negative influence on the people he loves#feeling like he's acknowledging Over and Over again that there's some ineffable quality about Him that Isn't Normal#in a way that seemingly drags people down... and feeling like the Only option he has available to him is to like#cut the shape of Himself out of their lives in an attempt to preserve them. truly it tears one Asunder#i am going to *sound of shredded metal* -> Autism. 👍🏽 (ALSO schizospec <- also vital to the empathy experience)#The two episodes in particular feel especially relevant to me bc in the episode that immediately follows Home Economics#is Debate 101 when Troy makes the 'Will I accidentally listen to Come Sail Away by Styx again?' comment which is Also called back

my current favorite work pastime is asking my boss his opinions on different bands/artists because his takes are just so fucking out of pocket and wild
#whizzy speaks#here's the highlights#he hates fleetwood mac#thinks bruce springsteen is 'fine i guess'#says. and i quote. he fucking hates billy corgan''#he prefers covers of songs by the who to the originals#only likes a single styx song (come sail away)#saw mcr during warped tour 2005 and called them 'whiny mommy's boys'#the literal only opinions of his i agree with are he likes the misfits and the offspring#fr i often will just text him an artist just to see what he says#i still give him shit over the fleetwood mac though i do NOT allow stevie nicks haters in my store#he did say he had never heard of fall out boy so they must be irrelevant but he said that just to get me pissed off lol#i knew he was lying bc he had told me about seeing them years ago

I look to the sea, Reflections in the waves spark my memory. Some happy, some sad; I think of childhood friends, and the dreams we had.
