What I'm Made Of (Sonic Heroes OST) 🤝 With Me (Sonic and the Black Knight OST): Final boss songs who's lyrics apply almost just as much to Sonic as they do to the villain he's facing
#im crazy im crazy#also i know with me is used as Merlina's leitmotif but like#you know who throughout all of satbk is like accepting being the villain of the story? Just like Merlina does? Sonic#He's literally like oh killing king arthur will make me the bad guy? oh well lol can't always be the hero#they're both willing to do what they must even if they become the villain because of it#''you know every world will have its end and i'm here to prove it all to you''#''i am who you don't think i am''#like come oonnnn that's exactly what Sonic and Merlina are arguing about throughout the final battle#and those lines could apply to either of them#AND THEN DONT GET ME STARTED ON WHAT IM MADE OF#that song people are more likely to immediately think of Sonic when they hear it for the first time#but if you listen from the perspective of Metal Sonic it's like mind blowing#especially since its such a sonic style song like its got such a familiar feel to all of Sonic's other Crush 40 themes#and I'm including Open Your Heart and Live and Learn in this#Open Your Heart is just Sonic singing directly to Perfect Chaos and Live and Learn is similar to the songs im talking about above#in that Live and Learn can apply just as much to Shadow as it can to Sonic it's their duet as they save the world from Gerald's plan#(insert an ''I'm Live'' ''and I'm Learn'' the Live and Learn Brothers joke here)#but anyway the point is that you think of those songs when you hear What I'm Made Of#it SOUNDS like a Sonic song#but then really you listen to it...... and it sure does sound like things Sonic would say yeah#but ultimately? It IS a Metal Sonic theme. And it is playing on the parralels between Metal and Sonic on purpose#''i don't care what you're thinking as you turn to me cause what i have in my two hands is enough to set me free''#LIKE THAT'S THE FIRST LINE IN THE SONG... Sonic is ALREADY free. You know who isn't and is doing everything in order to be free?#''let me show you just what i'm made of'' is a Sonic line but oh my god is it also a Metal line#dont get me fucking started on the verse about 'one by one they all become black marks on the floor' and how insane the implications make m#these boss songs are all CONVERSATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#anyway. Sonic music good#sth#moodle rambles

"so, that was fun"
#YAHOO YIPPEE#i drew each of these in like 2 mins and i can do like 50 more the amount of energy i have rn is !!!!!!!!!!!!#GAH im not normal im so sorry#WHAT A GUY#sth#doodles#sonic frontiers spoilers#frontiers dlc spoilers#IM GONA RAMBLE ABOUT THE MUSIC HERE because idk where else to do it#the new im here version ??????? SO so good what did they put in this song !!!!!!!!!!!#specifically. it fits the new super form so well. it sounds more electronic and theres less focus on the traditional instruments in the bg#which is so cool!!!!!!!!!#but the bit that gets me is the new vocal line that plays in the instrumental part right near the end. the higher bit#THATS SO PRETTY . AND IT PLAYS RIGHT AT THE CLIMAX#then it fizzles out and ghhhh the visuals ...... ... .#sorry i cant focus on what im writing im still listening to the ost and the instrumentals on undefeatable are INSANE#the melodies you couldnt hear before are incredible. ill just stop here💥#but anyways. please talk to me about the dlc im ALWAYS up to talk about the dlc ok bye

#I've had this song stuck in my head since yesterday and I saw a comment that said it sounded like something from Sonic Rush#That combined with the video of Sonic and Shadow dancing to Digital Circuit gave me the idea for this#Which I spent like 3 hours making#Sth#Blaze the Cat#Silver the Hedgehog#Krafter Edits

guys help i'm hopping on the bandwagon
#sonic the hedgehog#sonic the hedgehog fanart#silver the hedgehog#art#sonic#sth#sth fanart#tobsart#anyways i think sonic would probably sing it with amy because it sounds like a song they'd both like#actually he was probably staying with tails and then amy showed it to him while she was visiting lol.#now everyone has to deal with sonic constantly humming it all the time because it's stuck in his head (in a good way)#anyways totally not because i was doing that as i drew these no way.#also had to switch to traditional until i can get a new drive alas.#i'm definitely not used to inking irl T-T

saying "get help" is so condescending (unless its funny. and even then it could be funny because of that not despite it and now im getting caught up in technicalities) but really truly actually taylor swift needs some help from someone who doesn't like her recent music. and doesn't think all her decisions are great. the problem is she dismisses all crit by fans (fair enough, We Don't Know You) and loses respect for anyone bigger if they have anything not as peachy to say about her as the cultural zeitgeist does. sad! at least we'll always have love story 2008
#ts#breaking news! putting out a bad album about how you want to kill yourself isnt enough to incite like. actual feeling#fake rawness isnt a substitute for attention to detail and variety.#i KNOW she knows to make a sonically cohesive album AND a sonically diverse album shes done that well multiple times#like. red's no blue but it's still a pretty solid range of songs that sound quite different from each other production wise#and folklore the sonically cohesive album is her best work to date. so girl whats all this#save me from anton jacking of....

the common joke of shadow and amy being swifties is stupid and doesn't fit either of them (but it Especially doesn't fit shadow) so every time i see it im going to mentally replace tswift with hatsune miku . peace and love
#also insert joke about how sonic is miku's cousin or close friend or something and shadow and amy are completely unaware#ik that miku isnt really an artist in the same way taylor swift is shes an instrument used by many artists. but still. it would be better#tbh with amy there are a few specific taylor swift songs ive heard that feel like something amy might like#(all older stuff thoughnot anything recent)#its more the people portraying her as an active fan of hers or an obsessed swiftie or whatever that doesnt feel right#it feels like ''well amy is The Girl One so obviously she would be a swiftie'' without really putting any more thought into it yknow.#BUT SHADOW. no taylor swift song ive ever heard sounds like something he would like . why would you say that about him .#''shadow the hedgehog would be a swiftie'' literally sounds like something i would see#in a post about sonic characters#written by one of those people who doesnt actually know anything about sonic outside of memes but still posts about it anyway

When the song's lyrics fit the silly guy perfectly but you aren't sure about the instrumental part
#this is about wherever I may roam by metalica and sonic#the lyrics are perfect like thats Sonic alright#but you gotta bend your brain a bit because the instrumental makes it sound like a villain song or something lmao

This feels obvious but maybe it's not so. The silence in Paladin Strait is. The strait. That's the crossing. He can't sing because he's schwimming. Right
#and obviously it'll be a big scene in the MV im sure but he said they wanted it to be a sonic experience first#because you're supposed to be in the paladin strait and you cross and get rewarded with the secret track#this doesnt even feel like it warrents a post im assuming everyone knows this i just think its NEAT#so i want to talk about it#twenty one pilots#clancy#tyler joseph#josh dun#there's some really interesting sound design stuff on this album that theyve never done before#like the silent break & then also the intro to vignette with the strings and the vulture cry callback#and how they crafted the album as a loop that enhances itself by Being looped#i wish they got more experimental more often in terms of song structure like i would love an ambient / field recording mixtape by tyler#or loooooong instrumental breaks#i genuinely believe tyler is on a trent reznor level of production diversity but tøp is almost strictly a verse chorus 3-5 min song band#even if they play with structure and genre within that#like i wish tyler would make some fuckin merzbow type shit im so serious i think he could. he never will though wah

Nothing has made me more excited for the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie than them using an epic instrumental version of "Live and Learn" in trailer. Sonic Adventure 2 is one of my favorite games of all time and for its story to be getting its moment with this amount of care? I could cry. This movie was made for ME and I can't fucking WAIT.
#sonic the hedgehog 3#sonic movie 3#Sonic 3#I know this was like 5 weeks ago but I'm still HYPED#Everything I hear about this movie sounds like they absolutely COOKED#Live and Learn IS the best Sonic song and I will die on that hill#cheesy rambles#Just some late night feelings

There’s something about the chorus of “obsessed” (I don’t know if it’s the vocal delivery, melody, underlying beat or something else) that reminds me of the chorus of “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”
#olivia rodrigo#yet again I listen to an Olivia song and am hearing an already existing song#like I understand that there’s only so many chords and notes to work with but I don’t understand how she keeps releasing work…#…that strongly sounds like other existing music when other artists are making music and there’s not a whole lot of sonic familiarity#I don’t listen to nirvana at all but I was humming the chorus melody to obsessed and my brain filled it in with smells like teen spirit

harry really tried his hardest to add a choking/coke reference in hsh like damn
#to me#it sounds like those songs were worked on around a concept or in this case an action#they took the choking bit and coke bit#and made songs around those experiences#so thats how we got severals songs w the same reference#and keep driving just happened to be the winner that made it into the album#which to me seems like a clever choice#it definitely is the most 'wholesome' out of the three imo lmao#i'll say i do prefer when harry sticks to more metaphors rather than straight forward lyrics#sonically though. i love it

if there’s one reason i know for sure that media literacy is dead it’s that there are people who slow dance and get engaged to this song.
#like yes sonically it’s GORGEOUS and with the birdsong it sounds so romantic#but babes the chorus is literally abt how the abuse is rare but because of the victim’s conditioning the blood is almost sweet/#a sign that the abuser cares about them#and the dichotomy of the romanticism of the song/sonic landscape vs the sorrow of the lyrics is in and of itself representative of abuse#as if from the outside everything is good and sweet and beautiful but with enough attention one can see that nothing is well and good#it just hinds behind the facade of it#so the subtlety of the separation of the text and timbre/vibe of the song is intentional bc it’s a metaphor of itself#however it’s like. do people genuinely not listen to lyrics ever like it baffles me#i am apparently the right amount of stoned to be mad about it on a friday morning having yet to sleep#music things

Going through the strikers ost to find songs to download; seeing the song titles change from ‘The AI and the Heart’ to ‘The AI and its Heart’ is going to make me go apeshit. Ur not allowed to do this to me.
#chattin#p5s#i KNEW they were similar but i never put two n two together#wails.#other good songs im plucking from insider;#you are stronger; bc its actually a jam. its really nice heehee. i like it more than the OG opening#what u wish for & axe to grind. LOVE these battle themes…..soooo smooth man…its crazy good#adding some city themes too. nice to have in the background while im drawing#SINGULARITY. OUGHH… SO GOOD.#rivers in the desert and last surprise (remixed) are also good. like surprisingly so#faster paced in a way that doesnt detract too much from the originals#the ai and its heart (both versions) bc. woaw……😭🥺#and Demiurge II#bc….it sounds like something i would hear as a sonic boss song….. and i love it…#lots of good songs in this game; but thats how i felt about p5 too !

fuck man.
what a hollow fucking ending to an album that - in my most uncharitable yet instinctual read - displays a complete lack of self-reflection.
throughout my initial listen, i felt this lifeless resignation to performance, to creating art to speak truth to experience. i felt the labor in the construction of each song, and not in the good, 'each piece of this puzzle was masterfully maneuvered into its place' way. in the 'i fought tooth and nail against my writer's block to make this happen' way.
couple that with lyrics like i just don't work, not without you, which surface-level* read like they're addressed to the porcelain of our story (snarling at that finale evocation of 'ever after'), and it underlines the way our protagonist hasn't matured even one bit over the course of six albums. stagnation is the underlying theme of this record. actually, it's more regression than stagnation. at least in phantoms (2019), our protagonist recognizing that he's hanging onto a ghost of love means he can't also romanticize the healing power of that love.
topping all that off by throwing up his hands and accepting that this life and mindset works as well as anything, sold to us with a triumphant swell-and-settle of the orchestra...
fucking hollow.
#* reading the 'down to you' lyrics on their own and without the context of the song (which is very romantic ballad)#you could interpret the song as the narrative speaking to its protagonist#which. cool!#but the problem with that is this album melds together in one unappetizing sonic lump#that a casual listen makes it sound like it's from the same pov as everything else#when 'stutter' happened you felt the shift#'truth or dare' feels like a villain song and very obviously not from the same pov as 'by now'#haven (2024)#i really hope you grow on me........#marianas trench
