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.

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.

"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"

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 first saw Yahyel that one time I went to midnight sonic in 2018 but I first saw Ikegai Shun earlie#that day performing glitch with soil and pimp sessions - on a beach - with his most beautiful voice. It blew me awayyyyyy 😭😭😭 I still am#Shocked to this day I'm still moved by how beautiful that experience was 😭🙏 Then later that night at midnight sonic I was exhausted at#Like 2 am and was looking for a place to sit down and I walked past the entrance to the area where yahyel was performing and it shocked me#It was INSANE O_O some of the most incredible music I had ever heard live 😭😭😭#I went in but I was so tired so I sat down at the back and started falling asleep but there music was so awazing 😭😭😭 there was a lot#of space so everyone was dancing and growing crazy and having an amazing time and I so wanted to join them but my body was giving out and#I kept falling asleep 😭😭😭 I was so sad 😥#And then Komu_i just suddenly walked on stage and was like 'Hi~ we have a new song coming out together next month so well play it now 💕'#And it was sooooo incredible 😭😭😭 (you can imaging my shock because I had been trying to stay up all night in order to#see Wednesday Campanella at like 4 am so I just could not believe she suddenly walked out on stage for this random artist's show I#had (literally) stumbled into 😭😭😭#Man that whole experience was just so amazing and it wasn't until a few weeks later that I realized the 'something something Shun' guy who#Performed with soil and pimp was the same person as the guy from yahyel 😭😭😭😭)#(and that's my yahyel story 😅 but I'll never forget how blown away I was the first time I heard them.

NO ONE ELSE WILL EVER BE ABLE TO KNOW US LIKE EACHOTHER#AND WE'RE IN LOVE W EACHOTHER!!WE'RE EACHOTHERS TRUE SOULMATES!!!! NO ONE COULD EVER COME CLOSE TO WHAT WE HAVE#all i want is to hold them close and kiss them and compliment them every single second of the day#i want to hold them close and comfort them as they cry and reassure them of every little thing theyre insecure abt#and tell them over and over that i will love them for all eternity and im never going anywhere... i would lay down my life for them#i would do anything as long as it guaranteed their happiness#IDK HOW TO ACTUALLY EXPRESS THE EXTENT OF MY LOVE FOR THEM CAUSE ITS SO MUCH MORE THAN THE THINGS I SAY#IT FEELS LIKE MY CHEST IS GOING TO BURST I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH ITS LIKE I CANT BREATH#i just need to admire them... every little feature of their beautiful faces... and their bodies...#i want to admire them in the softest and most loving way possible as if they would fall apart if i touched them w any slight pressure#i want to lay together w them and for us to just hum songs together softly and start giggling over dumb things#and id love to just work on our latest album together in the studio figuring out the mixing and such#just the mix of music and love and friendship and adventure and fun that is our lives... makes me so happy

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
