#i'm a luke hemmings scholar why can this not be my full time job

[burstingsunrise]

if you had to do present luke to someone who has never heard of him before, which pictures, videos and songs are you choosing?

oh wow. what a question! it's one i do think about quite a bit though, and realistically it would depend on the person i'm introducing him to. content specifically catered to their interests <3 however! there are definitely some common things i'd probably rely on in most cases.

songs: so obviously all of wfttwtaf would be ideal but if we're picking and choosing i'd probably choose a few that represent some different vibes and showcase his songwriting, so maybe starting line, place in me and baby blue. possibly slip away too just because i think that's one of the best overall examples of his songwriting + his brain + his voice.

and in terms of 5sos songs, again i'd choose a range to show off his vocal range and a bit of songwriting as well. i'm thinking take my hand, caramel, moodswings, lover of mine, not in the same way, kill my time, youngblood (as if anyone has not heard this song) and no shame.

videos: (i do have specific reasons for all of these but i really doubt you want me to write an essay.) baby blue visualizer (c'mon i had to) easier mv teeth live motion live performance (look at him multitasking! 🤩) place in me live from the studio cocktail chats the entire 5sos5 show (yes i am holding this person hostage) making of 5sos5 doc wfttwtaf doc part 1 and part 2 tmh north america tour diary the makeup tiktok getting his album tiktok luke on tour bopping and dancing and jogging for coffee cake insta live compilation (i guess i won't force them to watch the whole thing) this tmh tour compilation this :)

pics: perhaps the hardest part sigh. narrowing it down is so hard. there are reasons for these too, and they're not necessarily my favorites (although many of them are), just...showing his range. (and tumblr HATES formatting pics in asks so i apologize in advance for how ugly this will probably be.)
