okay okay sorry Im gonna have a musical moment I JUST think it’s interesting that people have been hyping up Jonathan Groff and Daniel Radcliffe so much in merrily we roll along and yet I see very little hype for the ICON Lindsay Mendez. I also like Groff and Radcliffe, I do, I think theyre talented and charming guys. I just think its interesting that whenever I see fans talk about the show or the interviews around it, theyre mainly talking about those two. Just think its interesting.
#captain’s own#dumb bitch hours#personal logs#I’m sorry I might be overreacting a bit#but I adore Lindsay Mendez and I have since I first heard her voice when I was like 15#She is honestly probably my favorite vocalist/stage actor and the one thats inspired me the most#if you’ve never heard of her/aren’t a theater person please go look up The Party Goes With You from 35mm#its a beautiful emotional song and it contains the line “the gayest party sad but true”#Also shes so good

THE RECORDING SESSION
Studio Sessions for RCA on June 6, 1970: RCA’s Studio B, Nashville The last entry of the evening, “Heart Of Rome,” was an up-tempo dramatic ballad in the operatic vein of “It’s Now Or Never” or “Surrender”; it may have had a little more irony going for it than the earlier cuts, but by the end it had Elvis straining for the high notes — and the band struggling to keep awake. Excerpt: "Elvis Presley: A Life in Music" by Ernst Jorgensen. Foreword by Peter Guralnick (1998)
The song was recorded on the same day as the hits "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me" and "Just Pretend", as well as "I Didn't Make It On Playing Guitar", "It Ain't No Big Thing ( But It's Growing)", "This is Our Dance" and "Life".
It was past midnight when they were working on "Heart of Rome", the last song recorded that night. Elvis, the recording team and musicians spent about ten hours working at the RCA's studio during the Nashville sessions from June 4 to 8, 1970, reporting each evening at 6pm and working until the wee hours, wrapping up the sessions around 4:30 am. Elvis and his band recorded 35 masters over the five-days 1970 recording sessions in Nashville.

During that first recording session in Nashville in June 1970, Elvis would record the songs "Twenty Days And Twenty Nights", "I've Lost You", "I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago", "Little Cabin On The Hill", "The Fool", "The Sound Of Your Cry", "A Hundred Years From Now" and "Cindy, Cindy".
#“Heart of Rome” is currently my N.1 most played song on my Spotify#I guess that can tell which song of Elvis is my favorite of all#there's something about this song that is so dreamy#i know its kinda a sad song but its also very touching... missing the one person you want to spend more time with like its never enough 🥹#its so beautiful#absolutely one underrated elvis song#i get goosebumps every damn time i listen to this track#cant and won't ever get over it#elvis presley#elvis music#1970-1971#love letters from elvis#Youtube

"You're not a stranger to me
And you are something to see
You don't even know how to please
You say a lot but you're unaware how to leave
My darling lives in a world that is not mine
An old child misunderstood out of time
Timeless is the creature who is wise
And timeless is the prisoner in disguise
Oh who is the beauty who the beast
Would you die of grieving when I leave
Two children too blind to see
I would fall in your shadow I believe"
#ok to rb#stevie nicks#beauty and the beast#one of the most beautiful songs#time and space#sad witch hours#Spotify

well. that was........everything i expected and yet i'm still massively disappointed
#steph.text#there are a lot of things i could say#it's just odd to come onto your dash and see everyone hyping this album up when in reality it's fine? he could do so much better#and yes i already gathered that this was for the western market and it will do well on that end#but in terms of the music?#it's so mediocre it hurts#there's no urgency or personality or expression in any of these songs#it sounds like you took all ten of them put them in a blender & created a homogenous blob#and that's what most mainstream pop music sounds like today so again to be expected#i'm not shocked i'm just sad#the biggest crime imo?#none of the songs really bring out the beauty of his voice#between the mixing vocal layering/filtering autotune etc.#also keep in mind he uses a lot of air when singing in english#it's okay he doesn't sound bad but in comparison to what his voice fully capable of on other songs & in general?#yeah#i'm gonna go watch the mv#at least that will deliver#also to no one's surprise it's the best song on the album hands down#oh boy

JVKE’s this is what ___ feels like album has me feeling some sort of way
#I'm usually not one to get into more modern artists. BUT.#Holy shit.........his music makes me feel shit. Like FEEL it really feel it#It's genius actually. A story told on 4 parts. Connected through other songs. The stages of falling in and out of love#It's heartbreaking. It's fucking heartbreaking actually#The fact that this is what heartbreak feels like comes RIGHT after golden hour?? Shut up. Shut UP THAT HURTS ME#golden hour is deadass the most gorgeous song I've ever heard in my fucking life I can't even express the emotions I feel listening to it#It's beautiful. It's whimsical. It's magical. It captures such a specific feeling and time of day. Time of YEAR even#It's a song about love and how in awe he is of the person he loves and it's perfect and soft and. golden hour. Yeah. That's it.#And then. THEN WE FUCKING GET TO THE NEXT SONG AND IT'S LIKE#All that buildup of what falling in love is like.....what it's like to be in love to love someone to treasure them to feel FEEL for them#And then we get hit with betrayal. It's bitter. It hurts. And you can feel that in the song too#Ugh ugh UGH how does he do it. The whole album is a story from start to finish and it makes me want to cry#Falling in love...heartbreak...sadness...and then.#Acceptance. Moving on. Falling in love with someone new. AHGHH#It really reminds me of The Last Five Years bc that has the same sort of concept#A story of love told through song. Falling in love to falling out of love...#LOVE HURTS!! THIS ALBUM HURTS ME IN ALL THE BEST WAYS.#Shima speaks#Anyway go listen to this is what ___ feels like right now. Do it

i just finished reading the world according to garp and oh my god. what a book! so now i immediately have to read everything else john irving has ever written
#like genuinely that was one of the best most beautiful books i’ve ever read#i originally only bought it because i’d been looking for his book a prayer for owen meany#(which i wanted to read because the jimmy eat world song goodbye sky harbor is based on it)#and couldn’t find it ANYWHERE. but then i saw this and of course i’d heard of it before#so i decided to try it while i look for a copy of the other one. and actually i had to wait a little to read it#because i was already reading like four other books. but i read that first section and i was immediately hooked#and so i tortured myself waiting to read it for like two weeks#anyway i think it’s possibly changed my life. certainly my ideas about writing#and i did manage to find a copy of that other book i wanted in the meantime so yay!#as soon as i’ve recovered from garp (which honestly may take a while—i sobbed through the last like 200 pages) i’m going to start it!#it’s these kinds of books that always have such an impact on me i think: weird families full of eccentric people who love each other so much#books that are really bursting with life and with love like my family and other animals by gerald durrell#also books that make me cry that’s an easy one#but hooooly shit i didnt realise this book was SAD? i thought it was a comedy!#i was wholly unprepared to read THAT chapter on the train out of nowhere!#i already loved it before that happened and wouldve given it five stars but the rest of the book just made it an instant favourite

been really autistic about this playlist the past few days
#it's all the songs that give this sort of peaceful type of anxiety#i can't explain it. all songs that are kind of beautiful and calming but also sad or slightly eerie#it's not meant to be like ''creepy'' music or anything it's just. idk the vibe#type of music that at least for me feels like i'm being transported to another time. but it's a vague time and there isn't really a way out#i mean yeah like peaceful anxiety#i'm listening to it now and all the songs are kind of. nice to listen to. but also there is a sense of dread that i can currently feel#like physically#it also makes me feel like. how i imagine it would feel to see a mushroom cloud in the distance#and realise there's nothing you can do now so you just accept the reality#ughhhh i'm unwell about this playlist pls look at it if you're interested in this type of music lol#also a lot of the songs in it mean a lot to me like most of them are connected to specific Defining memories. i'm unwell ok stop talking#ramble#music#playlist#do i have a playlist tag? maybe i should start one. and then it will inspire me to post more playlists here#(i have 856 atm so maybe i should start posting more of them. for the archives)#also yeah some of the songs in it are actually kind of happy? or would be perceived as happy idk. but they still give me a Vibe#so they're in there
