Name the powers meteors and let us go insane.

Enchanté, enchanté, enchanté, enchanté Name the powers “meteors” and let us go insane It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s okay If we can’t raise the dead We’re gonna raise hell instead

We huddled up, we held on tight For grounded men were jealous of The angel's flight, angel's flight They were butterflies to them So they brought their boards to pin The wings and bodies of our gods For studying - Enchanté by Dirt Poor Robins

The “creatures designed for artists and their music” train is still rolling, and has rolled into “drawing variations on these base designs styled for specific albums” station

So here’s a starry crane-lyrebird-angel thing in red and blue for Queen of the Night by Dirt Poor Robins

2, 9, 18 for the end of year asks! and a big hug for you this holiday season lilo <33

Album of the year: definitely Dirt Poor Robin - Queen of the Night!

Well, more for the second part of the year, I only found the band near the end of June xD through Star Wars fic! An Ekkreth short story, but I can't remember what it was called anymore and it's not in my bookmarks :( I found lots and lots of music through Star Wars fic this year lmao, but this one really stuck, I adore Babylon and Enchanté especially and learned both songs by heart :)

I don't really think there's a specific album I was listening to in January-June? Some Annie Lennox, The Pretty Reckless, The Kinks, Oisín, but just individual songs really

Ohh no I do remember! whatever the newest album of Oksanketschüss is/was, bc I went to the concert with @toboldlynerd in February(?) and listened to a lot of songs on repeat for a while :) and Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon because we went to a planetarium experience thing that same weekend

Best month for me this year: January. Maybe that sounds sad because it's already long gone but it's just that nothing even comes close: I had finished my semester abroad but I Was still abroad (Cape Town, South Africa) and I had the whole month to chill and travel and eat tons of amazing food (I gained 10kg during my semester abroad after having the same weight for like a decade lmao - and like yeah part of that's muscle because I got back into aerial silks, but part of that is Definitely all the sweets and the fact that it's so comparatively cheap to eat out or sit in coffee shops all day lmao), and then the rest of the year even the months that were overall nice i was busy with my thesis and (apart from some weekends with friends, @lavendelhummel @toboldlynerd @sizzy4ever hi :D seeing y'all's was great!) for the most part the highlights were when I escaped real life by means of maladaptive daydreaming aka thinking up and reading lots of fanfic lmao so yeah. January, hands down!

And I already answered 18 :)

Thanks for the questions!

Ask me something, I'll ask you something back!

Quick doodle bc Carousel (Who's Gonna Hold You Down?) by Dirt Poor Robins is stuck in my head

it looks kinda bad bc 1. I don't draw this angle of face and 2. its nearly 4 am and I do not have the braincells for effort rn

[crazybeann]

It's pretty cool♥

@writer-of-random-things get over here we need a bigger sample size and I know you’re feral about at least two of these and also perhaps awake at this hour and if not then do your duty as a citizen of this hellsite when you get the ping and perhaps get a new friend out of this to over analyze music with when I’m somehow not in the mood to write an essay in messages

And for the record though the Horror and the Wild goes hard and Welcome always punches me right in the feels, Dear Wormwood has the nostalgia factor as well as the upbeat adventuring tunes my fantasy bard at heart craves

Yes I am awake at an unreasonable hour what gave it away

sorry for my varied tastes, my music taste is just like that. if you like any of these please please hit me up so i can be Insane about them!

(really rude that i can't add more than twelve albums, by the way. impossible to choose)

Sorry if this is an odd question, but what music was playing in the stream last night? It was really pretty.

I also wanted to ask what your pronouns are, if you're comfortable sharing that information?

(P.S. Whenever I see you have liked one of my posts I do this:)

Aww it's no problem~

As for the music, that's hard to say bc I played a lot!! I know I played a couple of albums this last time and going off "pretty" it miiiight have been the Queen of the Night album by Dirt Poor Robins? Highly recommend for haunting, old timey kind of sounding music. Gives me Over the Garden Wall vibes tbh.

Also I use she/her but they/them is fine too tbh! I guess I don't have it on my tumblr bio but do on my twitter. 😅

Got tagged by @s-static to show my top 6 (I failed, here is 5) favorite albums ✨✨

I don't really listen to albums though, I generally listen to individual songs from various places. One of my favorite songs is Enchanté by Dirt Poor Robins, in the Queen of the Night album!

I tag @norstrum , @faefaye , @biblically-accurate-soup , and @meliohy , but anyone who sees this go ahead and play too if you want! 💛

Hi,

I started this blog, because I feel like I'm depressed.

That is "unhappy and without hope" as Cambrige Dictionary puts it.

The state of sadness is definetely longer than 2 weeks, I'd say.

If I'm not mistaken, it's been over 5 years (plus a few weeks).

I may return to this and explain the thing I believe to be the cause of my emotional state. Of course there was a break more or less through the year 2021, because I just read books all the time in hope to escape reality and finally acomplish something. And I did. But 2022 came with new disappointments, lost "friend(s)?" and not enogh will to read so many books again.

I would like to add a few words about myself as an introduction, but I don't think I know mysef well enough to be able to do it this instant.

So I'll just write down some things that I like in no particular order: - cold (it's been way too hot recently) - tea (I'm going to take a sip right now) - jigsaw puzzles (today I started doing one I wanted to for a few years now, but the last time I gave up after putting only a little bit together) - books (their smell, feeling them in my hands, flipping through the pages and sometimes reading) -cocoa (recently mainly because of The Amelia Project; you MUST check it out or I'm going to throw USB sticks with it at you and run away) - podcasts (I know it's pretty unexpected; yesterday I discovered I Am In Eskew and I love the vibes; the depressed and ominous vibes that is) - music (at the moment I'm listening to Dr. Sunshine Is Dead; as I said, the depressed vibes; recently I also listen a lot to AlicebanD) (sip) - idk, not sweating? it's way too hot for this time of day - old Hitchcock movies ( so far I've seen in this particular order: 1. Strangers On A Train (1951) (yes, because of The Amelia Project) 2. Rope (1948) (it's great; to sum up: be gay do crime) 3. Rear Window (1954) ( I really like the way it's filmed, I almost felt like I was one of the tennants of the building)

and after I'm finished with this I'm going to finish watching "Dial M for Murder (1954)" ( I started yesterday and stopped at Intermission; I wonder how he's going to frame his wife, I'm not smart enough to figure it out only from what I've seen so far)

It's funny that all the Hitchcocks films I've seen so far can be connected by starring actors/actress: 1&2 Farley Granger 2&3 James Stewart 3&4 Grace Kelly - Dirt Poor Robins (great band, and Queen Of The Night is increadible, I'm just listening to Komm Jesu rembering what happens in the movie)

- you made it so far?

♠♣♦Congratulations♦♣♠

Anyway, I think that's it for now. I'm going to watch "Dial M..." after tagging this post.

Ciao

PS: Yes, the blog's name comes from that The Guess Who song in case you were wondering.
