songs for the beautiful and weary

[spindlewoed]

I’ve made a little Kim playlist! You can listen to it on Spotify [here].

I spent way too long putting it together so if you’d like some lyrics highlights/notes I’m putting them under the cut. Generally the playlist follows kim pre/during/post game so it’s best listened non-shuffled the first time.

Anyway, hope you enjoy!! <3

The title is directly picked from canon dialogue. I think about that Kim quote a lot ngl. As for the songs:

1. - "Another Brick In The Wall" (Part 1) - Steve Morse

Daddy's flown across the ocean / Leaving just a memory / Snapshot in the family album / Daddy what else did you leave for me?

2. - "and so I come to isolation" - Moses Sumney

Etymologically, isolation comes from "insula", which means island / I-so-la-tion, isolation which literally means to be islanded / [...] / And I thought, that's exactly what I've been my whole life / I've been islanded

3. - "Tank!" - SEATBELTS

I think it's time we blow this scene / Get everybody and the stuff together / Okay, three, two, one / Let's jam

note: this one is less about the lyrics and more about the vibes. (How did you get so cool, Kim?) Also, it starts with such a bang that I thought it would feel like whiplash, replacing the sadness of the previous song with cool vibes. When I say I’ve been thinking about this playlist for a month I mean it.

4. - "Stuck In The Middle With You" - Stealers Wheel

Clowns to the left of me / Jokers to the right / Here I am stuck in the middle with you / When you started off with nothing / And you're proud that you're a self-made man

5. - "Honest Feedback" - Saint Motel

Of all the illegal ways to take someone's life / There's one just as sharp and it's sharp as a knife / Well it's called honest feedback

6. - "I'm In Love With My Car" - Queen

All I hear is your gear / With my hand on your grease gun / Ooh, it's like a disease, son / I'm in love with my car

7. - "El Beach" - The Limiñanas

Un soleil est tombé par terre, brûlant / Comme à La Moricière / À la surface de l'horizon / Je contemple la situation

note: let me preface by saying that The Limiñanas have some of THEE coolest songs out there, very disco elysium vibes, so I really wanted to put one of theirs in. Anyway, If you look up the translation this song is about a man assessing the situation on the beach and the people in it before dipping for a swim. Obviously not 1:1 but if I want to be pretentious I’ll say it’s just like Kim to be observant of the people around him.

9. - "Ghost" - Parek & Singh

Sometimes I get much closer than I intend / The other times I just like to sit out on the fence / Most times I can't even tell the difference / I'm partially a ghost / Don't you get too close

9. - "Cold War" - Janelle Monae

So you think I'm alone? / But being alone's the only way to be / When you step outside / You spend life fighting for your sanity

10. -  "Kamikaze" - Wine Lips

Ya you got nothing to lose  / I think I’m feeling the groove / Ya, come on check it out / Ahhhh, you gotta check out these moves

11. - "Humility (feat. George Benson" - Gorillaz

I'm the lonely twin, the left hand / Reset myself and get back on track / I don't want this isolation / See the state I'm in now?

note: this song is sort of an answer to #2, I just wanted to point it out cause the lyrics match each other in a nice way and I was happy about it eheh.

12. - "Children of the Empire" - Weyes Blood

Children of the empire say / We're long gone / In that eternal flame / Trying to break away / From the mess we made / Oh, we don't have time anymore / To be afraid

note: If I could I would paste the whole lyrics but this choice boils down to, as I once put it, “songs that are about your ‘I can’t do anything about the state of things’ mindset but you actually could, you’re just too afraid to look on the other side for fear of what you’ll see there.”

13. - "My Silver Lining" - First Aid Kit

I hear a voice calling / Calling out for me / These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free / Be it for reason, be it for love / I won't take the easy road

***

If you’ve read this whole thing, wow, hope you liked taking a glimpse at my insanity and also thank you!!

The limbed and headed machine of pain and undignified suffering is firing up again. It wants to walk the desert. Hurting. Longing. Dancing to disco music.

My own Disco Elysium fanmix. I recommend to listen to it in order, though I'll probably add songs and change it up with time.

Inspired by Harry and his relationships.

If you give it a go, I hope you'll enjoy it!

DE playlist I made some time ago based on the feelings I got from my two playthrough. Some songs are chosen based on the text and some are just pure vibe.

there are many songs in russian, by the way, but still, they have the vibes.
