Tagged by @ourladyinshadow thank you Ella 🥺 I always have a Lot of Thoughts about music so I kind of went off here lol

Torches by The Oh Hellos--this song has lived rent-free in my head since literally 2020 when I first heard it, it's been in my Spotify Wrapped every year since then. When my mind goes empty it starts playing. The fic I'm currently writing is tentatively titled after one of its lyrics. I go nuts when I hear it, I don't know what else to say lol!

village song by Paris Paloma--current number one in my repeat playlist. Best listened to with headphones, just really nice haunting vocals going on. Its bridge is easily the best part, "Creatures die at the hand of those who kill/and the leaves will decay by the winter's dead chill/and some will pass on by their own desperate will/just like that man in the white house on the hill."

Baptisms by Radical Face--probably my fave song by the band, or very high up there. Radical Face does a lot with themes about being happy with what you've got, or like, finding joy in the little things, and the ending lyric from this song ("I'll just breathe in all that air/I'll be happy that it's there") really kind of encapsulates that for me.

About Damn Time by Lizzo--my feel good song! If I want to jam I put this on, it's just so upbeat and makes me feel better about myself. I'm always talking about walking around in my Belenciussies.

Frozen Pines by Lord Huron--Lord Huron's entire Strange Trails album makes me feel like I got lost in the woods and am now being stalked by some ancient eldritch being that exists in the space between growth and decay and Frozen Pines kind of hits the moment where I'm about to die. Very particular mood going on there but it's what I like to listen to most when I'm writing from the perspective of certain OCs. (Also it's possibly about being abducted by aliens? I definitely get that vibe from it.) Anyway I always think about the line, "And I wonder all they know/'cause they don't die and they don't grow." Very good moment there.

Tagging specific people gives me anxiety, I'm sorry! But I LOVE learning about people's song recommendations, PLEASE feel free to share yours and tag me! I'm listening to every song I see on this ask meme ❤️
