something about the main menu for life is strange genuinely makes me wanna collapse and sob
#like not just the music but the overall visuals yknow#it's like this gut wrenching#almost nostalgic ????#feeling that hits like a truck#especially after playing the full game#seeing how peaceful things could be is almost like#i dunno gives me that feeling of dread when you've done something you can't undo#seeing how good things could be but knowing you don't get to go back#sorta thing#it's just#something about beautiful pictures having gut wrenching back stories#does something bad to my brain#naturally#i dunno i'm half asleep and rambling#but yknow what i mean#i'm trying to put it into words as best i can#it's like#it really is just like what growing up feels like ig#especially when it doesn't turn out how you want#wanting to go back and warn yourself so you can hopefully make things easier and more ideal but obviously you can't#that's kinda what the menu feels like#music and all#especially those goddamn birds chirping#ok goodnight#life is strange#chloe price#max caulfield#lis chloe#lis max#pricefield

‘the children yearn for the mines’ is a little too real to me bc when i was a kid and my older siblings were trying to get me into pokémon i really never cared to try playing. BUT. i was obsessed with the underground mining minigame in dppt. i used to beg my sister to let me take a turn playing and set it up for me bc i didn’t know how to so i could go mine for gems nonstop until i cleared that entire cave section of glittering wall spots which always made me so sad bc i was having such a great time. i didn’t even understand the significance of what i was doing but 7 year old me was high off of it
#years and years later when i actually played platinum myself and it hit me like OH this is the game with the mining thing!!!#you have no idea how happy i was#…and also sad. it made me kinda heartsick bc in my childhood nostalgia dreams#my brother and sister used to play online together and do capture the flag#and their little minigame battles in the underground with their cool secret bases were so fun to watch#like that was back when the wifi connection was working and the games were alive and relevant#but i came back to it far far too late. when it was a mere relic and i was alone with no other players#still. hearing the music again brought a smile to my face#pokémon#dppt#i am once again rambling about my very special relationship to sinnoh#i didn’t play pokémon as a kid but also yes i did it was part of my childhood. like without really knowing much about it#the lil character sprites. hearthome city theme#the contests#the crunchy sound of the map opening#and the incomprehensible map itself#the bike and surf music#empoleon and staravia’s cries as they went to use surf and fly#truly. being a younger sibling watching your older sibling play has such an impact on you#it’s all nostalgic to me too i just didn’t know the full context of it myself back then#couple all this with the weird feeling of having played pokémon legends arceus as my first own game#and THEN going and finally checking out dppt#it was like double nostalgia. two different half-nostakgia experiences#just. agh i make fun of gen 4 for a lot of things but it is fundamentally my heart isn’t it#i also literally am incapable of talking about it for more than 5 minutes without bringing pla into it lol#pokeposting

There's something so insane to me about being able to create and recreate vintage or even ancient music, clothes, fabrics, building architecture, anything, really.
I watched this video about a lady who knit a WWII-era vest, and it was really unique, because the cable work would eat up yarn, when there were shortages of fibers. This pattern would have likely been used by people to send overseas to soldiers, and now it's being created in a time where this war has been over for generations. What were the people making this pattern thinking of? What about the people making the vest? Could they fathom a world where world wars didn't happen back to back? Could they imagine what peace felt like, or did it fade like a distant memory, a faint friend? All we have now are the remnants of their efforts, a "simple" vest that would warm the bodies of countless people the knitter would never have imagined were here on earth with them.
We're reaching across time to learn about other people - we're reaching our hands out just to grasp anything tangible. And when we've take hold of something, all we can do is say I love you I love you I love you
#positivity#art#i also come across this absolutely stunning woman who collects vintage pieces from the '50s and it's just. it's mind boggling#or how we've found ancient sheet music and have recreated its contents#do you ever think about how we're time travelers#do you ever think about what might be recreated of us in the future#this isn't about nostalgia baiting but about how we learn and process the ways that people in the past lived#you don't have to feel nostalgic for WWII to be intrigued by this (it would be very concerning if one WAS nostalgic for WWII)#i just. i die a little inside because i know i will never know everything...#...i will never know every lottle thing about people in the past especially...#...and i am never completely satisfied because only a very selective amount of things are preserved and remembered...#...i wonder then what 'forgotten' people thought and felt and how they lived...#...especially as individuals or as a small clan of family and friends. i want to know them intomately - as if i myself have become emeshed..#...does this make sense. i don't just want to know about nobles and kings and the wealthy...#...i want to know what the lacemaker for a king felt making lace for the royals...#...i want to know what the rice field worker thought about when the fields were flooded and they swatted a bug away from their skin...#...i want to know what a mother of a small child thought when churning butter - her baby cooing and making a mess...#...and it sucks sometimes to know that we're time travelers but in a very narrow sense. but i still love what we have got...#...don't get me wrong i love it. but i still grieve that we have lost a lot of history - a lot of people...#...or maybe we have only lost them in the sense that we just haven't located and found them *yet*#anyway i've watched that video multiple times now and i just go absolutely animalistic thinking about it#all of this is complex and i have Plenty of thoughts about that. but at least to me this is what i've seen a lot - a lot of love#and isn't studying this - recreating it and analyzing it - isn't that a form of love?#am i... a nosy person..........

genuine question. did anyone else ever take their music player of choice (i had a cd player, mp3 and eventually an ipod nano) and go walking or something involving movement so they could daydream for hours at a time. i have never met anyone else who did this. i had a swingset outside and would swing for like 2-4h at a time just daydreaming. and i didn’t like anyone to watch or interrupt me so my entire family knew to leave me alone. and i also had a specific outfit i would wear for it…always a zip up hoodie and a hat and scarf and they all had to feel right otherwise i’d get upset and couldn’t stay outside. like if the hat was itchy or something it would be too distracting. i had a whole entire universe of characters i’d think about whenever i did this too. genuinely did this for the majority of my childhood. i need to know somebody else did something similar so i can understand what it was about LOL
#i was so particular about it#rain or shine i’d be out there lol. in the snow too#i went through so many headphones and cd/mp3 players#and i used likewire to burn music onto cds or onto my mp3 😭😭 it makes me so nostalgic#i always have used daydreaming to escape lol i do it even now. just without the ritual involved

listening to the songs used in the soundtrack for the outsiders movie just make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside
like yes. give me those elvis oldies and three versions of stevie wonder’s ‘stay gold’ 🙏🏼
i eat this shit up every time.
jerry lee lewis too?? are you kidding.
van morrison is probably in my top 5 favorite artists.
each song is a masterpiece idc
#i actually love this movie more than myself i think#milky white way by elvis presley hits the spot. i don’t know how else to explain it. it’s just fall/winter outsiders songs#i feel like pb and johnny in the church type shit going on a walk w those songs blasting in my airpods#oldies music is so superior#the outsiders#the outsiders 1983#the outsiders is my life and soul#let’s not forget how listening to ‘jack daniel’s if you please’ and ‘loveless motel’ make me physically nauseous because i feel almost#nostalgic like i frequently dance at buck’s with dally or something#the scenarios are literally endless

Everyone talks about how amazing the princess bride is (rightfully so) but people don’t talk enough about the soundtrack. The motifs the themes the impeccable vibes. Have you sat down and listened to “guide my sword”? Have you heard “the friends’ song” and heard the guitar and horn in conversation with each other in a light and playful dance, much like Inigo and Fezziks’ friendship? Mark Knopfler is a legend. A legend I say!!!!
#eben talks#the princess bride#mark knopfler#idk if there’s a mark knopfler community on tumblr. I hope so#listen the man is brilliant for his soundtrack to local hero alone#wild theme makes me sooo emo guys#makes me think of sitting on the ground listening to music and looking at the trees#seeing the sunlight shift through the leaves#🍃#while thinking abt something that feels profound#and a little nostalgic.#blergh#why do I have my 60 year old dads music taste. god. at least I don’t like steely Dan yet#nothing against steely Dan I just feel it’s such a stereotype for dads I need to have some individuality

Listening to instrumentals from the silly doo-wee-ooo show is actually something that can be so painful.
#doctor who#doctor who music#murray gold#segun akinola#musings about music#this is specifically about 10's theme in vale decem. the long song in 11's regen piece. and clara's theme in face the raven / clara's diner#i get psychic damage everytime i simply hear the use of the motifs elsewhere because of the tragic associations those sadder renditions hav#obviously these songs aren't the only examples in doctor who but they are by far the most emotionally devastating ones for me personally#and obviously it isn't just leitmotifs either. basically hearing any piece that played during a sad scene gets to me.#how are you supposed to explain to your coworkers that you're tearing up because of instrumental sound association?#'yeah sorry these violins and humming sounds summoned vivid images of my favourite character dying/leaving and it made me sad'#love that composers can just straight up pavlov bell your emotions by getting you to associate a melody with a sad scene#an addition to this is doctor who instrumentals that make me nostalgic because I associate them with my own past#like 'this is gallifrey: our childhood. our home'. that song was one of my alarms for a good long while back when i was 15ish#so it kinda transports me back to that time in my life whenever i hear it. music really is its own little kind of time travel#i am very much looking forward to the continuing psychological damage murray gold will inflict upon me in the new season#and to have previously uplifting character leitmotifs used against me and forever be contaminated with sad feelings. love to see it#(also: not a instrumental but damn 'the stowaway' has no right being as good as it is. who knew a christmas sea shanty could sound so great#apologies for this probably niche-ish post (is it niche to know ost title's by heart? asking for friend). just feeling things about music

being a movie nerd is so embarrassing because i've recently rewatched fantastic mr. fox and now it is literally the only thing i am physically capable of talking about. we start chatting and before you know it i'm telling you about all the symbolisms and hidden details in that movie (you haven't even watched it and you have no idea what i'm talking about)
#and you will never understand how much that movie means to me bc its literally my childhood#we had it on cd when i was like seven and at one point i watched it like every weekend for like three months#I WAS OBSESSED#and watching it now noticing all the things i couldn't see as a kid#just makes me love it even more i know its not an underground niche movie or anything its by one of the biggest drievtors in the industry#but still i have a different kind of connection to that thing i swear no one gets it like i do#AND THE MUSIC IS LIKE SO GOOD WTF#AND THE OVERALL AESTHETIC#AND THE FUCKING CHARACTERS#ASH WAS SO PERSONAL TO ME WHEN I WAS SEVEN#i love fantastic mr. fox i love stop motion i love the weird hand gestures and stuff they do i love the weird ass dialogue#fantastic mr. fox#fantastic mr fox#wes anderson#stop motion#animation#animated movies#nostalgic#i talk films

i think the thing that makes the 2008 recording of Rent, the definitive (tm) version of rent ( for me imo) is that it understands the ~libretto is best played as a comedy lol unlike the OG cast/performance and the movie... it just doesn't take itself so damn seriously. so the characters are able to be more relatable. and thus actually, the drama hits harder. bc they feel like a real group of friends that are wasted away by tragedy. and it's just so much more entertaining that way: "over the moon" is pitch perfect when taken as a *parody* of indie art, 2008!mark is basically peak 90s sarcasm in *all* his lines, "you wanna dance" "with you?" "no, with my father (rolls eyes)" is miles better than the daddy issues implied originally lol, "i'm 19!!" says a girl who's clearly not 19, also tango maureen is the best when u really get the "cucked club" bonding vibe (which doesn't work if u play mark and johanne as fully dramatic and hostile) (cough cough the movie) ... and again most importantly, the tragedy just hits harder if angel is actually a lighthearted character from the start.
#and it's like. it's just a funny play sdklfj i feel this isnt acknowledged enough??#the whole akita evita thing. 'where's everyone?' 'playing spiderman'. all the phonecalls!!!!!.#anyway have some musical takes fueled by my 3rd all nighter of the week#(im so tired)#rent musical#rent#also a lot of this makes me nostalgic for 90s/00s now sldkfj some lines / slang are sooo of that time#''that boy needs group hugs!'' is one#gordon's bits during 'it's beginning to snow' feel very ~edgy 90s#idk as a ~90s kid~ it's just very comforting and nostalgic aesthetically#(the music plays into this as well of course) (is not rock that would get made today)

THE MUSIC MEISTER SINGS A SONG THAT THE WORLD WANTS TO HEARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
#This bastard has been in my mind all day#If this doesn’t stop I might make him an official f/o#If riddler and music meister say anything about me it’s that I like my boys flamboyant and ginger#I watched all BATB episodes like 200 times when I was a kid and god this episode stook out to me so much#Mostly because it was a musical and the music meister was MADE for this episode like actually was#They made him just to make a musical episode how could you not love him#HIS NEWEST DESIGN IS SO GOOD MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS I NEED TO KISS HIM…..#I miss batb#It might just be because I’m nostalgic but god was it GOOD#Favorite Martian manhunter interpretation too because I just love how done he is with everyone#🌧️ // yearning#I LOVE YAPPING

INSIDE OUT 2 SPOILERS
Just came back from watching Inside Out 2…and uhmmmm I’m feeling EMOTIONS.
First off, so so so SO GLAD they didn’t fuck up these characters like Disney’s been doing for the past year. Love you Pixar you were always my favorite 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
Adore Joy. My GOSH I love her sm you don’t understaaannndddd she’s so me. And while we were watching my BFF said she was like Pearl from Steven Universe aND I CANNOT GET THAT OUT OF MY HEAD. Joy will always be my fave…
Live laugh love Disgust 👏🏾💚. Absolute goddess. They did a good job re-casting her. AND THE BONNET??? I SAID BLACK QUEENS FOREVER ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾💚💚💚—
ANGER BROOOO. I love him sm more in this movie. Idk what it was— I feel like they gave him more depth and dialogue. The whole “making Joy angry so she could yell her pent up emotions” was just UGHHHHH ❤️❤️🔥❤️❤️🔥❤️❤️🔥❤️❤️🔥❤️❤️🔥!!!
I wasn’t a huge Sadness fan growing up but I feel this movie made me like her more. And the whole friendship/alliance with Embarrassment was super super cute 💙🩷.
I’m just gonna out-right say it but I hate Anxiety. I HATE HER. The voice actor I adore but the character??? Nuh uh. “She doesn’t need you guys anymore 🥺…” SHUT UR ASS UP YOUVE BEEN AN EXISTING EMOTION FOR LIKE 30 SECONDS. Plus no one disses Joy and genuinely hurts her and will expect me to like them as a character. NO ONE.
Bro and I hated how RELATBLE RILEY WAS AT 13 JUST UGHGHHGHFHHDHDDJ. Me and my BFF had to cover our faces at almost EVERY. SCENE. RILEY. WAS. IN. LIKE GIRL STOP REMINDING ME OF MIDDLE SCHOOL SELF PLZZZZZZZZ.
Overral? 10/10 movie. The visuals were so amazing and it makes me want to be an animator even MORE. I totally reccomend to everyone if you haven’t seen it 🥹🫶🏾. Def re-watching with my friends and family when it is available on TV’s.
#Inside Out 2#DGRUAGGGFGFHD#Pixar#Love you sm Pixar dkfbfhjrjeje 🤝🏾🤝🏾🤝🏾#Emery rambles#Emery’s rambles#CRYING SOBBING THROWING UP YELLING#“She’ll stop feeling less joy. That’s what it’s like growing up.”#OUCH?????????#MY HEART IS ACHING???????#Also sorry no one can make me like Anxiety 💀💀💀#Least fave emotion automatically#Sorrysorrysorry “hate” is a strong word you guys 😬😬😬. I just rlly rlly RLLLLLLY don’t like her#Also the theme music was so nostalgic…#I never thought I would hear it in a movie theatre again…

I miss the early days of Genshin Impact
Like the whole beginning quests just feel like a warm summer breeze. Genshin just feels different now, and I don’t know how I feel about it
I guess I want to hang on to the pleasant memories of the past. Genshin has changed, definitely, but that won’t make me miss how it used to feel
#sorry hearing mond’s music makes me nostalgic#especially the dawn winery themes#AUGH I just love mondstat#where is venti and Diluc when you need them#ladye’s rambles#ladye's rambles
