[luminouslumity]

I know it's from Epic, but hearing Topher sing it really makes me wish for a return of fun Disney villains songs!

[wondero28]

Ik im not the only 4townie whos kept up with some of the V/As after 4town

So lets share!

What 4*Town V/As do yall keep up with?

Personally, I’ve kept up most with Topher Ngo (Aaron T) & Finneas (Jesse)!

Im a huge fan of Finneas’s music now, and actually prebought his most recent album! I also like looking after Topher Ngo’s VA career stuff! Its really amazing to see him earn more roles n work in more projects!

Now I know what sad Aaron T sounds like. Check Topher Ngo's story on instagram

So a few months ago, I did a four singer mashup of my favorite Get in the water covers and that was all before Steven's official audio. So I added his audio to make a 5 singer mashup. I just really love harmonies, okay? XD (singers I mashed up are Steven Rodriguez, Jorge Rivera-Herrans, Topher Ngo, Morgan Clae and Cha Dabin)

Are some of your works inspired by or written around songs and their lyrics?

Hmm...yes.

Let's see...The Art of Seclusion was partly inspired by Time is Running Out by Muse, the mermaid oneshot was partly inspired by the Topher Ngo's cover of the Poseidon song in the Epic musical auditions, I I this forest oneshot that was inspired by a song @residentdormouse sent, at least one of my Kyojuro oneshots was inspired by a song and my oc Sayuri was partly inspired by the song Little Girl Gone by Chinchilla.

There's probably more. I can see if I can link them when I'm not on mobile.

I'm always inspired by music. That's why I'll make playlists for my fics so I can get into the vibe of this fic.

MY OSCARS PREDICTIONS 2023 | PART 1

With the Oscars almost there (finally!), I've once again put together my personal predictions and picks. Here's to another incredible film year gone past, enjoy my predictions!

Big snubs for the more technical categories are definitely Nope, The Batman, and The Northman. Especially the first really upset me as it was easily one of the greatest films I've seen all year and didn't get the love and attention it deserved at all.

Best Cinematography

Should win: TÁR

Will win: All Quiet on the Western Front

Should have been nominated: Nope, The Batman

Somehow, I find the cinematography category a bit weak this year. Although All Quiet on the Western Front seems like an obvious winner to me, TÁR is the one that cinematographically really spoke to me.

Best Adapted Screenplay

Should win: Sarah Polley, Women Talking

Will win: Sarah Polley, Women Talking

Best Original Screenplay

Should win: Martin McDonagh, The Banshees of Inisherin or Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert, Everything Everywhere All At Once

Will win: Martin McDonagh, The Banshees of Inisherin

Best Film Editing

Should win: Everything Everywhere All At Once or Elvis

Will win: Everything Everywhere All At Once

Should have been nominated: Decision to Leave, The Batman

Best Visual Effects

Should win: Avatar: The Way of Water

Will win: Avatar: The Way of Water

Should have been nominated: Nope, Everything Everywhere All At Once

Best Production Design

Should win: Babylon

Will win: Babylon

Best Sound

Should win: All Quiet on the Western Front or The Batman

Will win: Top Gun: Maverick

Should have been nominated: Nope, The Northman

Best Original Score

Should win: Babylon

Will win: Babylon

Should have been nominated: Nope, The Batman, The Northman

Babylon's production design and score really worked well together and made the entire long watch very engaging. Although The Batman's soundtrack has been my favourite all year, perfectly capturing the gloomy atmosphere, Babylon has taken over that number one spot. Incredible score, I cannot stop listening!

Best Original Song

Should win: Lift Me Up by Rihanna, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Naatu Naatu by Rahul Sipligunj, Kala Bhairava, M. M. Keeravani, RRR, This Is A Life by Son Lux, Mitski, David Byrne, Everything Everywhere All At Once

Will win: Lift Me Up by Rihanna, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

Should have been nominated: Carolina by Taylor Swift, Where The Crawdads Sing, Nobody Like U by Josh Levi, FINNEAS, Jordan Fisher, Grayson Villanueva, Topher Ngo, Turning Red

As is clear, I cannot pick a favourite song this year. Lift Me Up gave me the most feelings when watching the film, which definitely makes me find it a lot more important than the other songs. On the other hand, This Is A Life has been a favourite outside of the film as well and Naatu Naatu is so good, the song alone made me want to watch the film (although I ended up preferring the song outside of the film). I do sincerely believe Carolina and Nobody Like U were snubbed, the latter probably because it released early in the year and never really got the same long-lasting hype as Encanto did last year.

Best Makeup and Hairstyling

Should win: Elvis

Will win: The Whale

Should have been nominated: Everything Everywhere All At Once, X, The Northman

Best Costume Design

Should win: Black Panther: Wakanda Forever or Everything Everywhere All At Once

Will win: Elvis

Should have been nominated: The Northman

I find the final two categories a bit difficult. For Makeup and Hairstyling, there's not one but two fat suits used. For The Whale, I am okay with this and would understand the win, although my favourite lies elsewhere. But The Batman's fatsuit felt very unneeded and I wish other films would have been recognised instead. For Best Costume Design, I adored Everything Everywhere All At Once but I do think Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is the most deserving one, especially with all the different kinds of costumes used. It looked stunning and the costumes really visually made the film.

Here's more! So good!

Nobody Like U - Canzone Film Red - Testo e Traduzione

Nobody Like U è una canzone della boy band immaginaria 4*Town (Jordan Fisher, Josh Levi, Grayson Villanueva, Topher Ngo e Finneas O’Connell), scritta da O’Connell e dalla sorella la cantante Billie Eilish per il film Disney / Pixar del 2022 Turning Red. Il brano è stato pubblicato il 25 febbraio 2022, due settimane prima dell’uscita nei cinema del film. Ascolta Nobody Like U Il video ufficiale…

[sabermist]

Also it’s the fact they don’t know acknowledge the VAST AMOUNT of potential that 4TOWN can provide as a virtual band, whether they use holograms like Hatsune Miku or somewhat a “real” presence like Gorillaz concerts where they have the real musicians behind the scenes perform (hence Jordan Fisher, Topher Ngo, etc could play out as the band themselves). People undeniably would go crazy for a virtual band like Gorillaz, so why can’t Disney take a chance? Sure it would be expensive, but the whole idea could break through barriers and create a new line of creative business. It doesn’t even need to fully turning red related, they could just pop up with a few new songs and 4townies would be happy to eat that up fr fr

Sorry for my rant it’s just that 😫😫 ugh Disney can’t you see that this whole thing could be something new, fun, and even beneficial?

okay like, pixar HAS to release somthing from turning red soon like, almost EVERY pixar movie has gotten a short of some kind. Toy story, up, soul, cars, luca,brave,incredibles,Monsters inc, inside out, coco, finding Nemo, Wall e, ect. There is no way they will just IGNORE turning red and just be like, "well you got a deleted scene a bout a year ago that's pretty good." Gonna SUE if we dont get some 4town content sometime soon. I mean I would rather they just say "NO SCREW TURNING RED WE HATE IT AND IT WILL NEVER GET ANY NEW CONTENT EVER" than just sitting here like "idk MAYBE you will get some content within the next 10 years tee hee🤭🤭🤭"

The "tail shaking incident" will go down in 4town history.

Listening to the Voice Actors of 4*town:

I'll be commenting my thoughts from me listening to the voice actors of the 4*town members individually

I’ll be mentioning the 4*town members a lot and comparing them to the voice actors + making some headcanons along the way

I'll link the videos I listened to

Let’s gooo

(Warning: this is kind of a long post)

-

Jordan Fisher (Robaire)

I’ve heard of Fisher from Dear Evan Hansen, he was playing the lead role Evan in 2020, and so I was surprised he sang for Turning Red, I mean his voice suits anything ffgk 

He’s a man of talent and sang with LMM (Lin Maneul Miranda, who is a musical god)

I definitely see the charm in Robaire from Fisher, I SEE IT

Fisher’s voice is to die for, I’m not exaggerating

His control is great, sir can hit high notes !!

Videos:

Jordan Fisher - All About Us (Official Video)

"If I Could Tell Her" | DEAR EVAN HANSEN

Jordan Fisher - "Into You" Ariana Grande Acoustic Cover | Elvis Duran Live

Jordan Fisher Covers Troye Sivan's "Fools" + Peforms His Single "All About Us"

Finneas O'Connell (Jesse)

Finneas’ voice is calming and quite deep, I like it, sounds mature and suiting for Jesse.

Literally Finneas and Jesse share the same hairstyle..I just noticed kdjg

His voice suits sadder/serious songs, it makes me imagine Jesse writing the edgier/sadder songs for 4*town. But also romantic songs too.

Not only does Finneas songwrite and produce, he sings! And not only does Jesse do art, he sings too! (not to mention dance) That’s a whole package (we’re not even talking about visuals man omg ok anyway-)

Also hearing Finneas’ voice sounds like Jesse could sing lullabies, like his voice could be soothing and put you to sleep.

Videos:

FINNEAS - Only A Lifetime (Live)

FINNEAS - What They'll Say About Us (Official Video)

FINNEAS - Die Alone (Audio)

Josh Levi (Aaron Z)

Levi’s voice is so HOT.. ILLEGAL. Also Levi dances pretty good, I see why Z is the best dancer in 4*town.

If I were a boy in the 2000s, I would be an Aaron Z stan no doubt, I get you Tyler ;)

I can’t comprehend Z being stoic offstage but his voice is full of emotion and smooth like honey on stage…THAT’S ILLEGAL.

I can totally see Aaron Z and Robaire being rivals with each other because they got vocals and style.

I think his voice impressed me the most, Topher Ngo’s being second place. The Aarons GOT IT !!

Videos

Josh Levi - NASA (LIVE)

Josh Levi - What's The Use (Live Performance)

Topher Ngo (Aaron T)

I can’t believe Aaron T is a bass, I didn’t expect for him to have a deeper voice rkdfjgns that’s so attractive

Ngo being Vietnamese makes me glad, he’s representing us Viets!!

Also his control over his voice is insane, literally I am in love??? Ocean deep y'all

Ngo being an ARMY (BTS fan) totally makes me convinced that T would definitely be a fan of BTS too, I don’t make the rules xD

Another soothing voice I would like to hear if I ever feel stressed.

Videos

billie eilish - my future (but a little riffy)

The Black Keys - Lonely Boy (Cover) | Topher Ngo

Ain't No Sunshine (A cappella Cover) | Topher Ngo

Grayson Villanueva (Tae Young)

Villanueva’s voice is so bright, I see why they casted him as Tae Young, instant serotonin listening to his voice oml

Also Villanueva plays guitar = Tae Young is a guitar player too (it just makes sense!)

(Fisher and Ngo also play guitar, while Finneas plays piano..Aaron T + Tae + Robaire the guitar gang, while Jesse the piano player)

He’s a literal incarnation of an angel.

Also Villanueva said he did beatboxing for the song (I’m guessing Nobody Like U or U Know What's Up?), yo then Tae must does beatboxing for the group too

Bonus: Topher Ngo and Grayson Villanueva collab on “You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch” 

( which totally sounds like an Aaron T and Tae Young cover that they would 100% do too omgkmrgslkr the pure talent and comedy)

-

As I listened to these artists individually, I see the resemblance in their 4*town characters, Pixar captured their auras and personalities SO WELL

My favorite voices might be Jordan Fisher (Robaire) and Topher Ngo (Aaron T), but the others are super good voices too. All of  them work well together as a group and sound breathtakingly beautiful in their own unique ways in their individual music/covers.

In K-pop, usually artists debut in groups and they don’t have solo debuts in order to focus on the group projects (mostly solo covers at most) and it builds the hype whenever one member does make their solo though. 

It was actually nice to do the reverse in this case, where I listened to the group first (4*town), then I listened to their individual voices (the voice actors’ solo works).

This was pretty fun, please do check out the voice actors of 4*town and support their work as well.

They’re all so talented and I’m grateful to have them come together to bring 4*town to life 💗

Who’s voice you like the most? Does it differ from your 4*town bias?

Drop some headcanonss if you made new ones after listening to their VAs, I would love to read some too
