okay so anyone following me can just politely scroll past this but the release of this album is genuinely so monumental, i just want to record some of my initial thoughts

every song sounds so incredibly good!!!! like first of all the production is absolutely god-tier, but with a cast of 钱雷, 尹约, 唐恬, 沃特艾文儿, 徐威, and 周天澈, how could it not be. but also, all of them have worked so closely with zhou shen over the years, so all the songs of this album just feel… so zhou shen. like it’s so him. it’s so perfect. in every single song you get to peer more into his worldview and that in itself is so 🥹

Track 3: “Restart” 重启 made me cry on the second listen. i felt emotional the first listen, but ig i didn’t pay as much attention to the lyrics (bc i have the chinese literacy of a grade schooler lol), but when he sang 太多次迷路太多次失误 (“lost my way too many times, made mistakes too many times”) i started tearing up. especially with the lyrics related to trying to do his parents right, it just hit really close to home for me. and the line 重来几次才能清楚 (“it’s only clear after a few redos”)—personally it was a really healing song overall

Track 4: “The Memory Store” 记忆商店 is, if you forced me to choose, probably my fave from the album so far. it’s just straight up haunting. it’s so dystopian and so poetic. it makes me feel like, i can’t describe it properly, but do you know in the studio version of “Doomsday Spaceship” 末日飞船, in the bridge portion where zhou shen hums Clair De Lune, and its so haunting and full of wistfulness for a bygone time? that’s the closest description i can give you of how it feels.

when he sings 不虚拟的拥吻想不想买没噩梦的睡眠耳边goodnight (“a non-fictitious kiss—do you want to buy? a sleep without nightmares, a goodnight in your ear”) is SO CHILLING AND SO SATISFYING AND SOUNDS SO GOOD its gonna be stuck in my head for the next few years. 他说想再荡个秋千妈妈我想飞的高点星球以光束穿越妈妈我想落到地面 (“he says he wants to swing on the swings again—mom i want to go higher. the planet is travelling at the speed of light—mom i want to get off now”) okay brb i’m just gonna go into the woods and scream. 岛屿还未消失这个世界还曾下著雪亲爱的我很抱歉不朽的没有了没人记得 (“before the island disappeared, this world even used to snow. my dear, i’m so sorry—there’s nothing not decayed, no one remembers it”) SHENSHEN GET OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW BEFORE I GO CRAZY

Track 5: “Alarm” 警报 is uhhh. alarming. apparently the english name is The Giver which also fits really well. it’s such a direct and kind of chilling way for shenshen to remind us to take care of ourselves, but also this song is gonna haunt me in a whole different way. every single line goes so hard and has so many implications. i might try to translate it later but for now, if you know you know 😵‍💫

Track 6: “Mind Your Manners” 少管我 OUR BELOVED. SO CATCHY SO ADDICTIVE. apparently in his interview with cosmopolitan magazine (which i still haven’t read yet), shenshen says this song (WHICH BTW HE IS PARTIALLY CREDITED FOR IN THE COMPOSITION AND LYRICS) is written for shengmi. ”希望歌迷们对自己说的：当我决定好做自己的时候,谁也别管，也管不了” (loose translation: “its my hope that everyone will say to themselves: what i decide for myself, no one else should dictate it, nor can they dictate it.”)

#again these are just my own initial thoughts!! i can never resist the urge to brain vomit #my mutuals are probably thankful i didnt inflict them w this in their dms djfjjfJDJFHFN #zhou shen #ramble tag #also i love how QQ music puts the number of ur album that u bought #apparently he sold half a million digital copies in about an hour or smth crazy like that #edit: nope it was half an hour even crazier sjhfjfj #honestly it was smart of him to only release half the album first bc my brain probably wouldve exploded if we got it all at once LMAO

okay look

#Lisa did a really good job #ima commend her for that #she still does things that really annoys me so I’m never gonna stan her like some of y’all do #but ima give her her flowers on this one #she sounds so different that I think I can listen to it and not feel sick #overall I think this album is Fine #but I don’t think I’m reaching for these songs over the originals #those are my initial thoughts I’ll get more detailed after school #kalina talks #all time low forever sessions #lg

weird fantasy prince inspired by a reverend bizarre album cover

#oc #original character #he was initially going to be a sorcerer but I drew him and thought he looked more princely. he doesn't have a name yet #the album itself im not a huge fan of. there's only so much really long slow doom metal I can handle personally #digital art #character design #hex originals

breakups are so fucking weird. three years and just like that it's gone. huh

#helix.txt #gross i ended up spilling my guts in tags. look at them fucking writhing on the floor all bloody #dont rb please #vent #to quote fall out boy i knew it was over i just didn't know the date #yeah that's it. fall out boy can fix this.#i will feel better if i go listen to bang the doldrums #and infinity on high in general #and folie a deux. folie a fucking deux how i love that album #my chem will make me better. gerard way save me #god what a weird feeling. you used to know me better than any other person but then you moved hundreds of miles away and it worked #for a while. then two years later you said it wasnt working and that this was best for both of us. guess i never got the memo for that one #hope we treat other people better because i wasn't as kind as i should have been towards the end and you were never as thoughtful or con-#-siderate as i needed towards the end. we grew apart because you're bad at keeping contact over messaging #and in some ways the cracks in the foundation that grew from that were my fault too i guess. our conversations always felt one sided #maybe i was smothering you #you could never seem to keep more than a passing recollection of the things i liked or even pay much attention to them #but i wasn't great about that either #we just became different people. you weren't what i wanted or needed and you couldn't do long distance. whatever #i know it was the right thing i just wish it hadn't made me feel so damn awful #will we still talk after this? who knows. we didn't end on bad terms but things are definitely weird #and considering your track record with people you can only talk to online i'm not optimistic #you tried to break things off initially by saying you'd said you would improve in the past with nothing to show for it #something i didn't disagree with but i said it didn't bother me much. and it didn't #but it's complicated now. i did deserve better. but you made it clear i'm not getting it from you #you weren't as present or thoughtful as i needed #i wasn't there in person the way you needed and certainly not as considerate as i should have been. and for that second part i'm truly sorr #anyways. sorry. i'd been thinking about it for a long time anyway. i didn't want to admit it because i didn't like to think #about what it might bring. maybe i should have been braver #right. that's enough

I will do much more in depth analysis and review of Things I Can't Say LOve and the dOpamine MV when I've had a chance to properly look at lyrics and it's not, you know, 1:35 am. So far though - I really like the MV as long as I accept it as a performance MV. OnlyOneOf continues to not disappoint me on the music front.

Initial song ranking based on my preference goes: O >> dOpamine > gravity >= give me the lOve, bitxx

To be clear, I really like all the songs though! O is likely going up into my all time favorite cluster of OnlyOneOf songs though.

Also, parting thought on the lightshow laser things in the MV, am I the only one who was like gay/mlm flag:

LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS + Charli XCX = #BratSummer. Like the iconic album, this plant plans on taking over the world. 🌱 #LittleShopofHorrors #Brat #Theater #Puppet #CharliXCX #Minnesota #Musical

#sure!#most familiar w/charli xcx brat via one degree removed references in entirely text jokes #so in the initial 0.5 sec i'm like [generic] context? [bdsm] context?#learning Ah this is an album cover and Ah this is an album (thought it was a single lol)#As Yet Unseen clip in there w/faintly visible seymour harriedly feeding the plant on that stepladder. and whom?#lsoh #guthrie little shop #still enough overlap to add:#will roland #seymour krelborn

😊

Based on this silly idea of mine.

Et voilà my humble interpretation of Sam in an album.

-

I have about a thousand thoughts on the content of these songs but I’m no lyricist lmao. I’d imagine you to get a good mix of tales of your life, past and present, as well as the general feels of the night with a tad of historical nostalgia. I’m always ready to elaborate and I think *hope* some of these titles may resonate with you.

#this was way more fun that I initially even thought #album dayy #Sam tag #nobody judge me for my design skills 😔✋🏻

When your Swiftie sister is currently on a cruise with limited WiFi and you have to break it to her what she's missing 😂

F for my sister lol

#yes i missed the anthology announcement initially lol and woke up to that. i had to SLEEP y'all #don't worry i won't be talking about it very much i just thought this was funny #i understand some people don't like the album but honestly i think I'm just overwhelmed. so far I'm liking it better than midnights at leas #taylor swift #ttpd #the tortured poets department #swifties

btw if you're in the US always yours is available in target as of today!

#thought id mention it since this was the first time theyve released a jp album in the US #+ the release date here was a lot later than the initial release date in japan #so ppl might not be looking for it #not sure if its available at other stores in the US where albums are usually sold #but it might be worth checking if u usually get albums somewhere other than target!#melia.txt

A few initial thoughts on GUTS that I’m putting here cos I have nowhere else to put them.

1. While I don’t personally know much about the potential beef between Olivia and Taylor Swift, if the theory that there’s a song about Taylor or the “beef” I would put money on lacy rather than others initial guesses that it would be all american bitch.

2. the grudge is a sister song of enough for you

3. all american bitch reminds of Miley Cyrus’ Start All Over at least during the chorus **

4. logical gives me the same feelings I get when I listen to favourite crime

5. the grudge sonically reminds me of drivers license, similar instrumentation I think

6. I liked almost all the songs on first listen but ones that will take a few more listens to fully grow on me are: logical and the grudge

Edit: I’ve seen an interesting theory that lacy could be about Brina, some of the lyrics fit some don’t. Whether it’s about a real person or just the idea of a woman olivia aspires to be its a beautiful song

** oops
