#song is business man by tom cardy

[temporaltourguide]

i recorded this a while ago but i decided yeah tumblr should see this

[clickbeetle]

the part i was most concerned about regarding the surgery (the anesthesia) sucked in a completely different way than i expected. but since the part i was anxious about (the feeling of passing out + waking up suddenly in pain) wasn’t an issue, i’d consider it a win.

they gave me medication to ease my anxiety through the IV, asked if i felt any different, and i said no. they just said ok, then said i might feel some pain in my arm as they administered something else. so i figured “oh they’re trying a different anti-anxiety med, that’s fine,” followed by “oh holy shit that actually does hurt a lot” and squeezing my eyes shut.

and i was waiting for them to say “ok we’re starting the anesthesia now :)” and do the whole counting down from ten thing. but i guess the painful one was the anesthesia, because the next thing i remember was being woken up so gently, with a song stuck in my head, like it had been playing in my dream. it felt like my mom waking me up for school as a kid. i was a little groggy, but it still felt kinda nice. so that anxiety was for nothing.

but my fucking god the anesthesia(?) first entering my arm sucked ass. sucked ass and shit.

listen to tom cardy, he has a variety of song topics including

say hello to this business man! he’s not a cop don’t worry

santa’s elves unionise the north pole (surprise, that’s two songs!)

the one location you should tell someone to check whenever they lose an item of any type

fiendish outlaw who uses no guns and defeats his enemies by flipping the bird at people, including baristas who overcharge him for a cappucino and people who bring soda water to his birthday dinner

some vampires get bored so they all become flautists who have perfected the art of Embouchure

a dog at a party- no wait now we’re on the wikipedia of the Vatican

mario’s existential crisis

pluto learned to stop doubting itself so you should too!

and finally, what is this girl’s favourite film? the answer will surprise you!

I've been listening to Tom Cardy songs on loop for like a week now, and the idea for this hit me like Gidel's Gino's big ol' hammer. So anyways here's Ernesto Foulworth, extremely trustworthy business man and definitely Not Fellow Honest

Also on YouTube!

[yeetthatkolibri]

The song Business Man by Tom Cardy is "Starling replika attempting to infiltrate a gestalt criminal gang and failing so hard" coded, do you agree?

Hard agree 100% :

wow I wonder why that didn't work

[susiephone]

my ezra squall playlist is a bunch of songs i chose very carefully based on their lyrics and vibes to fit squall's characterization.... and also "business man" by tom cardy

[unclefathersantateddy]

Tom Cardy's "Business Man" is SUCH a Sgt Bosco song. He's terrible at being under cover.

I would like to inform you that I listened to Tom Cardy’s “Business Man” and I immediately went ITS MYSTERION AND HARRISON DUKING IT OUT

HAGAHHSGSHS THAT SONG IS SO FUNNY may i suggest chaos to be the sniper in this scenario

At this point i'm compiling a playlist of all the songs people tell me they associate with chaos plan lmao and this one is such a whiplash in tone among all the other /srs ones HAHAH

[bambiraptorx]

as much fun as it might be to someday do something serious with Bishop, my brain has assigned him the song "Business Man" by Tom Cardy so I cannot help but only conceive of him in ridiculous scenarios lol

[fanaticsnail]

ARGHHH CURSE MY BRAIN FOR FORGETTING SO MANY THINGS (aka even more addition to my answers for the ask game. the ask game is now my reasons for ranting. please be careful of the length of this rant)

How the hell did I forget about Uta my beloved and X Drake my sweetie cop boy. AND KING. AND REIJU. ARJFKFHFKSJ-

• What song makes you think of your favourite character?

For Uta, literally every song on the Film Red album (personally, New Genesis, Backlight, and The World's Continuation really scream Uta to me). The songs really show how Uta progressed in the movie and it's just so fun to hear the tune change from a pop song to rock-style and to rap and then to ballad (that broke my heart). I first knew of Ado this way and boy did she have a really good voice (her growls omg).

On the topic of Ado, there's a really good song (also her debut song) called Usseewa that I think fits Law in the context of him expressing his dissatisfaction and anger towards Doflamingo. The catchphrase of the song is literally a very rude way to say shut up (usseewa), so- yeah.

And riding the bandwagon of "songs I know and ring with a particular character", Luffy with stupid by John Michael Howell (yes, again, I am just dumping songs that have a nice ring to them rn). This song is just my personal headcannon of how Luffy's stupidity mirrors a choice he made (unknowingly?) to preserve the brightness he has and to prevent himself from turning cynical like most of the world. After all, how can you see the good in the world and its people if you're constantly afraid of everything being everything it isn't?

SPOILER ALERT FOR KING'S ORIGINS/BACKSTORY AND X DRAKE'S IDENTITY

Moving on, I just got one for King (my dearest), Just A Man from Epic: The Musical (I have seen the book and it scares me and I have not touched it again since that moment). I know this is a bit turning the lyrics on its head but I feel like it'd fit him in a situation where he sees the Seraphims and he was reminded of his situation. He was a child when he had to witness the extermination of his people. He begins to think about how he's now Kaido's right-hand man and the people he's slain. He doesn't want the Seraphims who look just like his people to witness such violence and get corrupted at such a young age. I feel like deep down, King still wants to go back to a place he called home even when said home might not even be there anymore, but he's too busy trying not to get exposed and sold out to the World Government. The overall melody and lyrics just *slams table* it's just KING-

Back to a lighter mood, bc of a cinematic I saw on Tumblr (and then on Youtube) of Business Man by Tom Cardy with X Drake... yeah. It just sticks so bad I can't even keep a straight face anymore XD (pls watch it. I cannot explain the comedy magnificence in words alone) (cue drake singing i'm a business man with a business plan and apoo and hawkins watching with a look of disbelief)

OKAY SPOILER OVER

• What song makes you think of your OC?

I got a collection of them, but some that really stand out to me is Nobody by OneRepublic for Ainsley since he's Samantha's support pillar (he was the first Anomaly (what I call most of my OCs in this universe) that Samantha (albeit unknowingly at the time) created just for that purpose) which is why he's essentially the other half of her heart. He has been, is, will, and would always be with her as an everlasting companion/counterpart. Where Samantha is the more serious, stressed natural leader type, Ainsley is the laidback chaos in flesh type.

And then there's lovely by Billie Eilish and Khalid for Samantha. She's coping with her stress and borderline depression by becoming stoic and hardened (although still easily irritable sometimes (similar to Crocodile tbh)) and when I heard lovely my mind just went "yes that's her song, make her depresso espresso". Add the extra seasoning of something similar to savior complex and just being too responsible for things that she overworks herself (workaholic) because she got them standards.

There's also Royalty because DAYUM this fits her vibe so much. Like she isn't the grand flaunting bright kind of nobility but a "i rule over everything you know but you won't know about it until i tell you" royalty.

Last one for now (because I'm Indonesian and this is played real often in the radio rn), there's an Indonesian song called Gala bunga matahari by Sal Priadi that talks about accepting the passing of a loved one while living on happily as they hoped even though the singer still misses them. It really reminds me of Samantha just reminiscing on the people she they? loved who had already passed. The depresso espresso personality actually comes from Samantha being the first Anomaly created by the (mostly negative) subconcious of the entity right now dubbed as The Primordial One (yes all my Anomaly OCs are self-aware to some extent). The Primordial One of course has origins and that's where the remembering past friends part comes in. Tbh the OC universe is pretty much The Primordial One's subconcious that created a whole new universe and the lore goes deep here as well so I'll cut it right here (might pop up in your askbox with extra bits of lore tho).

• If your favourite character was real and appeared beside you, how would you feel about it? What would you do?

Honorable mentions because they're beloved (these exclude the intial shock reaction)

Uta: KARAOKES. BE FRIENDS WITH HER. SING ALONG. LISTEN TO HER MAJESTIC VOICE. I will teach her the music of this world and then go shopping. OH RIGHT JAMMING TO SONGS FOR HOURS JUST COOPED IN MY ROOM ASKSJKA- (as you can see i am not normal about her)

King (haven't i wrote this already? Anyway): 1. How did you fit into my house without breaking anything, 2. How the hell am I supposed to take you out with all these wings characteristics, 3. What kind of clothes would fit your tall ass

X Drake: so are you a cop - no i'm not - yes you are - of course not! - okay stop. I know you're a cop (shows him the video earlier clips of Wano, the Fandom, and all that) - ...okay then goddamnit - it's okay you're my lizard bbg - w h a t

Reiju: MMM SUGAR MOMMY. I'll save enough money so I can go to Japan and eat fugu (Japanese pufferfish) with her without big risks because have you seen how she saved Luffy from getting poisoned pre-WCI? Hell yeah. Aaand take her out for a shopping trip together and I'd really like to take her to a museum that focuses on biology and not just the appearances (like. museum/aquarium date. that's my mommy)

shiiiiiiiiittttt my rants might've gone out of control. Hugs and cookies for one of my favorite fanfic writers, bye- (i don't want to burden you pls don't feel pressured to answer this and hope i don't have anymore amnesiac sessions akrkrkj)

Now, you listen here. (Affectionately)

You can't just drop "Just a man" on me like that. Its so incredibly emotional, and I think of Gol D Roger every time. Just the:

"I look into your eyes, and think back to the son of mine... I'm just a man who's trying to go home... Deep down, I would trade the world to see my son and wife. I'm just a man."

Okay, now that I've said that. One Piece Red is gorgeous, and I love it so much. The music, the costume changes for the characters in that battle KOBY was just spectacular.

I love Samantha and Ainsley so much. I also adore the song 'Royalty', it's on almost every playlist. I HC that song with the monster trio. As a violinist, it sings to my soul. Samantha hitting it with the Billie Eilish just 🥺🥺🥺🥺. I adore her.

Also, X Drake and King 😭😭😭😭😭. The way you speak on them so passionately 🥹🥹🥹. I love it. I need to write for X Drake so bad. Also, agreed on Reiju. I can't wait to write for her in the next few weeks 🙌. Love her so much.

Thank you so much for your thoughts. I love them so much 🥹

put my music on shuffle and it immediately played business man by mother mother (the song that has been stuck in my head since last evening) immediately followed by business man by tom cardy. either that's a crazy coincidence or the universe is trying to communicate something. no clue what though

[sky-kiss]

Thanks for the tag @flamemittens.

Make yourself in this picrew, and then post the last song listened to.

And the last song was...
