🎧 🤗

Thank you! I doubt this choice will be a surprise to you 😉🥰

Though if we're talking recommendations I should probably also mention a couple of songs you might not already know so here you go 😅:

'Send me a 🎧 and I’ll recommend one of my favorite songs'

Hello there! For the musical asks:

5, 15, 21 and 24 please 😊

Hi there! Thank you for the ask 😊

5. Which song always puts a smile on your face?

Follow the sun by Xavier Rudd

And

Erdbeerkuchen by AnnenMayKantereit

15. Who is the most underrated artist in your opinion?

This is tough but I’d say the band 4 Non Blondes. Most people only know one song (What’s up?) but the entire album is incredible.

Oh and Ren and Simon Russell. Although Ren may not be underrated, just not as known yet as he deserves to be.

21. Which music video have you watched more times then you care to admit?

Lately Taylor Swift’s Delicate music video.

When I was younger I used to be obsessed with Michael Jackson’s Black or White and Thriller music videos and would watch them all the time.

24. Which song do you want played at your funeral?

The first one that popped into my head was “If I Die Young” by The Band Perry 😅 but given that I don’t know when I’ll die, I’m not sure. But I’d be happy with any sad song by one of my fav artists.

What music have you been listening to lately?

I'VE BEEN WAITING MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS, LEMME PULL UP 5 RQ THANKS FOR THIS ASK <333 This is not in order btw:

[omfg alastors voice in the song- AAAAAAA]

[my-rose-tinted-glasses]

Hi Rose!

I've seen that you've reblogged a music ask game recently and couldn't resist. So here comes 28 & 16 from me! 🎶

16:One of your favorite classical songs

I have amore than a couple and I have a strong preference for two instruments. You know about the piano and the other one is the Cello. So I'm gonna go really basic with this one because although very famous is one of my favourite pieces of all time played by the greatest cellist of all time.

And I love this video because we can nature as the background sound. It's really soothing to me.

28:A song by an artist with a voice that you love

So many voices that I love though. It's really hard to pick one. I'm gonna go with one that was actually recommended to me by someone here. Thank you @twig-tea.

Her voice is incredible. She has such a good control and I love how she uses it to express different emotions in the song.

MUSIC ASKS these are actually pretty fucking hard but why not.

[keets-writing-corner]

Bro, do you listen to Mac Demarco?

His song "For the First Time" is literally lucilith in a nutshell.

I've been thinking abt this for like a month but I've told nobody bc I don't want to slander Mac Demarco's name 😭😭

damn this for when they split up and Lilith leaves????

idk what's sadder, this song existing at all in the context of Lilith, or Lucifer just waiting for her to come back

Nothing kills me quite like someone waiting for someone else that may or may not ever come back 10/10 angst

[y0urtemptation]

when you get this, list 5 songs you like to listen to, publish. then, send this to 10 of your favourite followers <3

(also rest in peace Chris Cornell ;_;)

[dickarchivist]

Hi, I was curious what you think the grave squad's favorite band(s) or musical tastes would be, given Earth's music choices?

Please and Thank you

This is such a great ask, thank you a whole bunch.

Grave Squad's Playlist is [here] actually if you wanna listen to some music I think fits them. I'm constantly changing it and adding stuff, if you ever wanna see what's going on!

Ghost: he'd be a thot for Hozier tbh. That bewitching and alluring, heartbreaking love songs, to those sings that set the soul on fire with passion and fever. Ghost would love The Bog King, hands down.

His favorite song would be [Work Song] by Hozier

Phantom: Royal Deluxe, Future Royalty, WAR*HALL, and Oh The Larceny, The Killers, Curtis Harding, and Curtis Mayfield. Phantom is jamming. (I have a star wars oc, a Togruta lounge singer, who sounds similar to these bands, so Phantom would be a huge fan of Quix.)

His favorite song would be [The Best] by Future Royaly

Specter: Siámes, Adam Jensen, Jupiter Vale, and Billie Eilish. He's a broody music with a beat kinda guy. Anything that you can jam to without paying attention, but when you listen to the lyrics you're like "Hey buddy you okay? That's a lot."

His favorite song would be [The Wolf] by Siámes

Banshee: classical, Hozier, Lofi. Anything to keep his mind calm, a sleepy boy liking sleepy things. I could see Banshee being a critter, tbh, so I'm gonna say he'd enjoy Autumn Orange's stuff. Oh God how could I forget, Ban would love Lizzo.

His favorite song would be [Clare De Lune]

Wraith: Jukebox The Ghost, Florence+The Machine, Caravan Palace. Wraith loves dancy music, stuff that's upbeat and makes you tap your feet or burst into dance.

His favorite song would be [Moonshine] by Caravan Palace

What's this? A tag list!

I've been tagged by @blueberry-beanie and @flamingplay for 5 songs I actually listen to

Thanks both <3 ^_^

1. cult leader - KiNG MALA

I love this song so much. This song always makes me walk with my head high, even if it's (or because it is) a bit of an villain anthem

2. High Definition - Waterparks

If you like Coldplay, I think you should try Waterparks. Even if it's mostly because of the lyric "my band and I are like Coldplay // that's allowed to say the fuck word" from their song Numb (which is also really good)

3. Daddy's Eyes - Zoe Wees

Zoe's vocals on this track are just really nice to listen to. It's a good song, and you can feel the emotion that went into it. Definitely an ear worm for me.

4. Hell's Greatest Dad - Hazbin Hotel Cast

...okay so I just watched this show recently and the soundtrack has worked it's way into my mind and I cannot control it. This bops. I stand by this.

5. Always in My Head - Coldplay

I couldn't not have a Coldplay song on here, and this one has been in my mixes recently because I have been driving a lot at night / in early morning and Ghost Stories is such a night time album for me. I love this song 10/10

I'm going to tag @frengers @coldplayismagic @xintothewoodswegox and you, yes you reading this - I tag you.

(no pressure ofc)

[glorious-blackout]

Not sure if you're actually into them but Garbage for the band ask?

Definitely more of a casual listener (which I should probably change) so would be happy for any recs 🥰

favourite song: #1 Crush

least favourite song: Don't know enough of their songs to have a least favourite, though in saying that I've never been a huge fan of the Nellee Hooper mix of #1 Crush 😅

have i ever seen them live: No

favourite band member: Shirley Manson my beloved. I am but a shallow lesbian...

least favourite band member: Don't have one

how many of their albums i have: None. I do remember owning the edition of Guitar Hero that Shirley guested on though 😂

favourite album: Most of the songs I know and like come from their debut, which I should probably take as a prompt to finally listen to it in full!

favorite lyrics: Can't think of any specific lines but I always liked how dark and obsessive the lyrics of #1 Crush were.

favorite music video: Only Happen When It Rains. Shirley in that pink dress... I am but a simple lesbian yada yada 😅

ever met any members: No. Not knowingly anyway, I'm not sure I would recognise anyone besides Shirley...

Thank you! 💖

Hi Dear BPP!

Have you noticed the trend of 4th gen boy groups having edgy vibes? Their fandoms think their music is superior to BTS because it is more edgy and hard with autotune. I've seen people say BTS is outdated, they should do songs like Stray kids, Ateez, Svt and I realized it's true BTS has never made a song like 4th gen biggest boy groups. Even TXT doesn't have an edgy song. Maybe the problem is Hybe? Hybe should hire younger producers who can make edgy songs. Then the groups will get more fans.

***

(Every time I remember this ad I chuckle. We get a wholesome message in between the sirens and syncopated synths. Classic BTS lmao)

Hi Anon,

The above video is an ad BTS made in 2018 that sounds exactly like a bunch of 4th gen groups' 'edgy' tracks today. In my opinion. In fact, I remember when this ad dropped, the 'edgy' sound of the song was not as prevalent among 4th gen boy groups as it is today (scroll through the debut/1st comeback albums of all the groups you listed Anon), but the ad was so ridiculous and yet so good, that it caught on for quite a bit. Fast-forward to 2023 and you're right that this is the dominant sound in 4th gen boy groups.

So I doubt the stylistic musical choices made by BigHit are because they don't have "young producers" who can create the sound you're describing. Especially given BTS/BigHit producers were utilizing UK and Chicago drill rap (in k-pop ads lol) way back in 2018, before the cross-over of that style into more groups' sounds.

That's all I feel the need to point out, Anon, simply because that misconception in your ask is the easiest to correct. You're free to keep up with other groups' whose sound you might prefer. I have no comment as to what you say 4th gen boy group fandoms think either.

43. song that gets you energized! when you need to get a chore done

Okay Marcus, this is a delicate balance. An energizing chore song must be a little long, or else I feel the chore has been interrupted once the song ends, with a chance I might have to pick a new song. A good chore song also must not be too singable -- I have quite a few songs on my rotation that distract me because I'm trying to sing the song more than cleaning something up. And it's gotta be heavy, of course. Here's one I like to listen to while I clean:

It's right on the cusp of being too emotional for me to chore to, but it definitely gets me going. Something about this one gets the blood flowing literally every time
