Harry Styles ex's Pt 1
Tumblr media
I'm obviously not going to do every girl he's ever been with. I have a friend who is a One direction fan and she gave me a list of all the exes that matter. I'm going to make these short and sweet because he has a few.
Caroline Flack saw Harry as someone that was lonely and a bit of a loser/ loner. This intrigued her and made him attractive to her. Harry was nervous around Caroline. I think he didn't really know how to impress her and he was afraid of looking stupid. The energy between them is Ace of pentacles. This relationship was built on money. They saw this relationship as something that could produce tangible value. They did not love each other. This was a relationship that was heavily based on finances and intense sexual passion with ace of wands.
Paige Reifler saw Harry as someone that was bold and sexy. She saw him as this alpha, macho guy which is kind of different from how we see him today lol. Harry saw Paige as a conquest with the 2 of wands. He was determined to win her over and he thought she was really good in bed. The energy between them is death rx. There were some sort of limitations in this relationship. One or both of them weren't allowing this to go further. This was also not a relationship of emotions. These two separated and are not interested in getting back or looking back to each other.
Air plane lady (she didn't know her name lol) saw Harry as someone she could never have something real with. Harry saw air plane as someone that he could be vulnerable with. He was holding onto her very tightly as well and he might have been possessive over her. The energy between them was full of baggage (no pun intended). They had too many challenges that they couldn't overcome. Someone in this relationship had more power over the other and used this as a source of control. Interestingly, I'm getting this might have been the airplane having some information or something. However, this could also be that Harry had a power imbalance over this woman as well.
Kendall Jenner saw Harry as someone that was very motherly. He may have been caring and nurturing to her. He may have been a little emotional as well. Harry saw Kendall as a girl that was acting like she was single. He tried to get her attention through gifts but she was not interested. This relationship caused one or the both of them to have an awakening or realization about themselves and relationships. These two did have feelings with each other but their feelings ran dry. I would be surprised if they are even friends anymore and Ace of cups rx can indicate a relationship that is not genuine.
Thank you for reading. I will be doing pt 2 on Taylor Swift, Camille Rowe, and Taylor Russel. I already did Olivia Wilde. I will be doing another part on why all these couples broke up.

🎶✨when u get this, list 5 songs u like to listen to, publish. then, send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (positivity is cool)🎶✨
omg hi parker !! i listen to so many songs of so many genres so i’ll just do a few that have been on repeat lately :^) my new year’s resolution is to be less awful at answering asks so i’m starting strong w this one LOL
i’ve been listening to this on loop ever since the midnight countdown bc 1. i’m writing a mini fic that has to do w this. kind of. u will See. and also because this song is just pure serotonin in soundwave form to me and i could listen to it for hours without getting bored !! a classic for good reason if i had to make a playlist of songs to exclusively listen to forever then this would be on it
also have been listening to this a lot the past few days (+ throughout 2022) and i’m currently playing out a byler edit in my head that i’ll never make but. whatever. idk! i don’t listen to this album or harry styles as an artist very much but i love this song in an actually indescribable way there’s just something about it that clicks in my head !! maybe the beat maybe the lyrics maybe the melody maybe the Everything of it all. just a song i can put on loop for hours and never get tired of!!
this is a song that makes me want to like. drive through the city at nighttime w my roof down and my best friend in the passenger seat. literally love the strokes so so much and the guitar and the drums in this one are just chefs kiss to me! i’m a sucker for a good guitar + drums pairing. reveling in my male manipulator moment whenever the strokes come on (+ the way he says “moscow 1972” just tickles my brain so good)
GOD. i have so many feelings about billie marten and idk how to articulate them all but this song is literally like extra strength advil in auditory form. it’s so soothing and the acoustic guitar in this makes me wish i could sing so bad !! i listen to this + the whole album when i’m feeling tired or exhausted or stressed and i swear it flushes any pain right out of my body. would recommend to anyone no matter what genres you’re into !!
ok listen. the lyricism in this song. every single line is like a punch straight to the gut oh my god. god rest my soul! i miss who i used to be! the tomb won’t close! stained glass windows in my mind! i regret you all the time! I CANT LET THIS GO I FIGHT WITH YOU IN MY SLEEP THE WOUND WONT CLOSE I KEEP ON— [gunshots] anyways. yeah. favorite song off of midnights so psychoanalyze me as u please but this is going to stay on repeat through 2023 for Sure

Industry people voted for Harry to win AOTY, 18,000 industry people vote for that award every year. Whether they think he’s manufactured or not is irrelevant because they’re clearly buying what he’s selling so who really cares? I’m sorry but I’m tired of the self soothing “oh but he’s manufactured and people know it” like… let’s not lie to ourselves to feel better. It’s easy to fall in the trap of thinking that karma is actually real and things will rectify themselves eventually, that we just need a little patience because surely this terrible person is falling out of favor, and people are seeing through them, and their imminent fall from grace is inevitable.
In my experience, that’s self soothing BS. Undeserving people have stepped on my back to get job positions I wanted and needed. My friends would go “oh but I bet your boss will see it if you work hard enough” or “eventually the true face of this person will show” and years go by and things don’t “fix themselves”, karma doesn’t strike, justice isn’t made.
The same thing happens in the music industry, probably ten times worse. As someone who’s been observing the industry for a while, Harry has managed to reach an echelon that very few people have reached in history. I’m talking, Justin freaking Timberlake never won AOTY. 49 artists have won that award since the Grammys were created. Of today’s musical landscape, of artists that routinely chart and are popular, the only ones to ever win it are Billie Eilish, Bruno Mars, Adele, Taylor Swift, and Harry Styles. You can add Kacey Musgraves to that list if you feel so inclined (I don’t, she’s not actually mainstream imo). That is an INSANE lineup to be a part of, and the day I found out he’d won it (the day after the Grammys because I refused to stay up just to get pissed off), was when I realized he’d won.
He just won and people are running in circles trying to come up with excuses as to why, actually, he can still lose. This is what he wanted and he got it, to a degree that I don’t even know he himself imagined (and people can spare me the discourse about his team buying Grammys because you can buy nominations but not awards, and definitely not AOTY, there’s a reason so few people have won it). Sure, we all know everything he lost in the process, but I’m willing to bet he doesn’t care and it’s all worth it for him.
There’s no degree of “the industry knows” or “fans will drop him.” The industry embraced him and he has fans in a chokehold, as much as it makes me want to break things. I let myself be fooled by the reception of his award on twitter, and then I came across a post about it on Facebook. People were outraged… that Twitter was mad. I kid you not. He pops up in my for you page on tik tok all the time no matter how many times I pick “not interested”. The amount of videos defending him and outraged about the person shouting during his acceptance speech. The amount of comments saying that Beyoncé was overrated (freaking BEYONCÉ. Overrated!!!????), that he deserved the win (!!!). The comments on YouTube and even in articles defending him. I truly truly gave up at that point. This poor excuse of a man could kick puppies as a hobby and they’d still be lodged up his ass.
bestie trust me when I tell u that I know all this 😭 I understand you probably just wanted to let your frustration out and I'm glad u did but like I 100% agree unfortunately lol I've always been the most pessimistic when it came to that man, and when I said industry people think he's manufactured I mean they probably know but also why should they care lol the entire music industry is a big manufactured mess built up by horrible men so they will support each other no matter what
and I do agree karma doesn't exist lol Good people are always pushed out by oppressive systems bc otherwise those systems wouldn't work anymore (that's why there are no good politicians and no good cops) and if we're talking about universal karma then good people always die and bad people live to their 90s rip
If u ask any of my friends here like @weareonejazzhand she can tell u I've been saying that we'll never get rid of that man now and we'll still be bombarded with his stupid biopic in 2050 and by then he'll have rewritten history completely lol
money always wins

So I’ll just list a bunch of artists whose music I love- Taylor Swift, Dave Edmunds, Cruel Youth, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Panic at the Disco, Harry Styles, Sweet, Don Mclean, The Driver Era, Boston, The Monkees, plus a ton of Broadway shit and soundtracks

hi so i'm looking for some new music to listen to and i thought you could help because you have great taste!
if this helps, i'll tell you what i normally listen to, which is very basic & basically the same few artists over and over lol
- mostly just taylor swift, she makes up 70+% of my listening probably haha and if i had to pick a favorite genre of hers it would be the folkmore style
- some other pop, like olivia rodrigo and conan gray and lorde & some doja cat but i'm not a huge fan of doja's lyrics
- lyrics are really big for me, so is having a pretty voice and nice melodies
- i love your playlists but the old songs are usually not my style (there's been some though that i really like, ty for that !! <3)
- ceremonials is my favorite florence album
- liability is my favorite lorde song
no problem if u don't want to!
OH i basically recommend things for a living so why not music, eh?
so. what i'm getting from this is that you have three big listening buckets: soft acoustic and indie pop and just plain old pop. so i will divide my recs by those broad genres! i too prefer singable music so i will try to lay off on especially dissonant artists, or mark them as such so you can be prepared (LOL)
acoustic/folksy (i'll admit i am a big indie pop girl so this stuff will be a bit sparser)
phoebe bridgers — admittedly she is more alt-rocky, but see garden song, savior complex, moon song, graceland too, prayer in open D
waxahatchee — can't do much (GOD THIS SONG), lilacs, st. cloud
lucy dacus — also more alt-rocky, but here r some softer jams: hot & heavy, christine, green eyes, red face (a jily song)
anything by first aid kit! start with stay gold and the lion's roar
hozier — i feel like most people on the internet have listened to SOME hozier but check out wasteland, baby! (i tried to pick individual songs and ended up listing most of the album LOL)
kacey musgraves — another artist you've probably listened to already, but try golden hour
brittany howard — stay high must be the sweetest song in existence, and basically all of her album jaime
arlo parks — the whole album but especially caroline, hurt, and black dog
lake street dive — i can change, good kisser (a mary song if i've ever heard one), and i adore their hall & oates cover!
anya marina — this whole album has had me by the throat since like 2013
lucius — just the whole album wildewoman, h/t @figg-anon for putting me onto this!
idk what tf genre fiona apple is but try her out as well!
artists i listen to less of but are in this vein: the lumineers, bon iver, vance joy
u know i had to rec some old people shit (LOLLLL), so in this vein, joni mitchell, heart, judee sills, emmylou harris, joan baez, vashti bunyan
one-off songs you might like: hold you now by vampire weekend, big wheel by samia, i eat boys by chloe moriondo, strawberry blond by mitski (i worship at the altar of mitski but she might not be your speed haha), like i used to (acoustic) by sharon van etten & angel olsen, body by julia jacklin, jackie onassis by sammy rae and the friends, cowgirl bebop by HANA
indie pop BELOVED
maggie rogers — ok i cannot recommend this higher like if u like lorde and conan gray drop everything now and mainline maggie's brilliant debut album
HAIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — they've got poppier songs like want you back and more mellow songs like summer girl, but honestly i would just recommend a deep dive because they have a pretty surprising breadth within their own alt-rock/pop niche
caroline polachek — can sometimes get way out n weird in the pop sense but so hot you're hurting my feelings is a very listenable pop standard (also it's so funny she's such a clever lyricist also this is irrelevant here but she sounds amazing live), also love look at me now and her cover of breathless
charli xcx is more experimental pop but would rec trying out warm (FT HAIM!!!), blame it on your love (FT LIZZO!!), and official
rina sawayama — technically her album is all sorts of genres but especially XS, comme des garcons, paradisin', bad friend, and tokyo love hotel
orla gartland is a lil softer and i love more like you, oh GOD, and did it to myself
king princess — especially cheap queen, 1950, holy, but basically all of cheap queen
more one-offs: kansas by ashe, comeback by CRJ (full paean in her honour to come in the pop section), i am a big fan of other people covering the bleachers (LOL) especially rollercoaster by charli xcx and i wanna get better by tinashe (full tinashe praise to come too), saturdays by twin shadow (FT HAIM!!!), the kiss of venus and 3 nights by dominic fike (also his interlude on halsey's album), aute cuture and milionària by rosalía, young lover by st. vincent (i love her but again might not be for u haha), good days by sza, backyard boy by claire rosinkranz, slow dancing by aly & aj, hot sugar by glass animals
if ur down to try out something weird witchy and cool, kate bush is like the originator of 9 billion pop and rock genres and hounds of love is a masterpiece
pure pop (we can split hairs on what makes pure pop LOL but basically everything here is based on ur enjoyment of doja)
carly rae jepsen — ok if u haven't listened to her non-radio-hits u may be like "what?? call me maybe lady???" to which i say YES, especially window, stay away, no drug like me, and too much
victoria monet — this may or may not be a selling point to you, but victoria is a frequent ariana grande collaborator and you can absolutely hear it in her music (see also: the mattress spring background noises in dive JUST like they are in positions...), and i love experience, go there with you, and we might even be falling in love, and why not throw in her ariana grande collab monopoly
magdalena bay — how to get physical which i am destined, nay, contractually bound, to put in a jily modern AU someday, killshot, stop & go
tinashe — basically ALL of her new album!!! SO good. i also love rascal (superstar), esther, and old jams like company (and i JUST found out she has a chaka khan cover!)
chloe x halle have the most angelic vocals in the world
this might sound actually demented because WHO hasn't heard love on the brain but rly... go give ANTI a re-listen...
tove lo — especially are u gonna tell her, mateo, and jacques
WAIT I FORGOT TO SAY ROBYN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERY ROBYN SONG!!!!!!!
for that throwback poppy sound u may as well go real throwback KJAHKJA and check out donna summer!
one-offs: right to it by louis the child n ashe, serial lover by kehlani (also more by her but im getting lazy now kdjfhgk), missed calls by max n hayley kiyoko, peppers and onions by tierra whack, idk who hasnt heard this song but circles by meg, todo de ti by rauw alejandro (the way i wanted this to be song of the summer so bad ;___;)
hope you enjoy and pls come back and tell me if you really liked any of these!!!! xoxo

9 & 21 & 23 & 24
Under cut because it got a little long
9: How do you make your playlists
By genre and what kind of feelings I get from them ! I have individual playlists for metal , math rock , rap , and every kind of electro (not respectively , if it has synths it's going in one playlist) , and everything else is just stuff like These songs make me happy these ones remind me of myself this is a character playlist these are for friends . So on . And also I have a few playlists that are just albums but . Reordered .
21: "No one should be judged for their taste in music" do you agree with this statement
.... No . I wish I could say I do but today my english teacher said she loves Taylor Swift and Harry Styles and I winced a little bit . Like if you enjoy say , shit like weezer or Radiohead or Eminem or anything else in that virgin music category and say stuff like "(c)rap" I'm making fun of and judging you ! (Read: if you are a user of r/music I think you should die .) But also I feel these are general music "red flags" (....) most people agree with so like , otherwise if you enjoy music I don't enjoy sure carry on keep listening to 100 gecs
Already did 23 , but also I'd like to add I hate Eminem . I enjoyed some of his earlier stuff but looking back some is just not as good as I remember and also why did he mention Dr. Dre in literally every song ? Bro had a crush on him
24: what artist do you think influenced your style the most
"Style" is used . Vaguely here so I assume this refers to general fashion and taste/style of (making) music . Fashion wise probably Tyler The Creator (OF COURSE I SAY THIS ..) , Beastie Boys (sorry) , Perfume (once I bought a skirt because it was the same one as the one Yuka was wearing in Natural ni Koishite MV which I think speaks for itself .) .
As for general taste in music (and for me I guess the stuff I make ?) then . BabymetaI (of course) , Playboi Carti , Kendrick Lamar , capsule (all of Nakata's works LOL) , Daft Punk , Lil B Based God .. Also I tend to listen to Aya Uchida's Ephemera , BabymetaI , Perfume's LEVEL3 , capsule's FRUiTS CLiPPER , and Kendrick's works in general when I draw for ~~atmosphere~~
I feel I could also list Carti for fashion because OF COURSE but I feel he ends up reflecting more in what I like in art ... Esp stuff he wore during Die Lit era . I do of course enjoy his looks from WLR era (now I guess ? Unless Narcissist drops which we know that's not happening anytime soon ...)

The sentiment that having a man open the show somehow goes against their attempt at “giving women their flowers” is just a lazy attempt at criticizing the Grammys any way you can. Literally nobody cares if a woman or a man opens the show LOL that’s actually ridiculous. And by the way, how have they marketed this year as “giving women their flowers”???? That’s literally not true. Just because Dua and Taylor got a lot of nominations doesn’t mean that. Last year Ariana, Billie, and Lizzo were everywhere in nominations.
Harry is literally a decade into his career. His solo career has been 5 years long and he’s been performing for 10 years. To act like he’s “not ready” is based on zero merit. Go watch his Kiwi performances or his Medicine performances, or his Only Angel performances. He knows how to keep a crowd entertained and he’s also clearly going all out with opening the Grammys, so I don’t know why you think he’s just going to stand at a mic and sing. Also saying that his music just isn’t the sound you’d expect to open the Grammys is very weird. First of all, why does only one type of music merit Grammy opening status? Secondly, Lizzo literally played the flute to open the show last year - is flute playing considered typical Grammy opener style? No. She sang a ballad also. There’s many ways you can open the show and I guarantee Harry will bring it visually as well.
Harry had the biggest pop album of the last year by the numbers, look at the Billboard list and IFPI list if you don’t think that’s true. He had 2 huge hits, one of which went #1 and the other which peaked at #6. He has also had one of the biggest breakthrough years we’ve seen in a while. Lizzo had a breakout year in 2019 and then she opened. Nobody complained then because it made sense then also. Harry was also snubbed from the general field so having him open is a nice make up gift for that all time robbery. He knows how to perform and has been doing it for years. Taylor Swift throwing her hair around and singing off key doesn’t merit an opening act yet she’s gotten it plenty of times, so I don’t get your argument there either.
There’s no reason he that he doesn’t deserve this nor is there any reason that somebody else deserves it above him. He had a massive year, and on top of that he’s going to draw in ratings, it’s as simple as that. If you’re bitter he’s opening the show, just say that.
Ok firstly, you’re coming at me very aggressively when my answer to you was perfectly respectful to your opinion and polite. I literally said I didn't Harry was ready to open for reason A, B, C, D, E, so I don’t know why you felt need to tell me “YOU’RE WRONG!!!” just because I responded with why I personally felt this wasn’t his year. If you think it is then that’s perfectly fine. Some of us just simply don’t feel that way and that’s okay. 
Secondly, considering that this is a MASSIVE year for female artists across all genres, I can see why a bunch of people was looking forward to a female opening act. That’s not weird imo. If you don’t care about who opens then that’s perfectly fine too, some of us do, obviously. 
Thirdly, I apologize I misspoke and said he's 2-3 years into his career. What I should have said that he was 2 eras in and his first era wasn’t an all-around/global hit. (In terms of his career as a part of 1D, performing as a group vs. performing as a solo should not be comparable - 5 people carrying a stage and captivating an audience is simply shared work. Being a solo artist means having to do all of that by yourself.) FL is undoubtedly his breakout era, and I don’t think this era has really showcased his skill as a performer all that much either. Hence, I said that in my prior response that I didn’t think this was the era for it. Had the self-titled era been as big as this era and he’d been asked to open with ‘Kiwi’ or ‘Only Angel’ or even ‘Sign of the Times’ then I would have actually thought that was a good fit musically. No one type of music is suitable for the opening performance but FL’s songs, in general, don’t have a climax point, the bridge is stagnant. That’s not a critique on the music itself but when there is no peak in a song, that can dull down a performance. Also, no one ever said they thought he was gonna stand there and sing. We simply didn’t think he was going to deliver to the standard of let’s say, Bey, Kendrick, Lizzo, Adele, and this included if he danced around the stage. No one ever called him a bad performance, but we just doubt he could put on a show because again, that takes experience to figure out what works. Speaking of Lizzo, she is a songstress. Her performance hinges on her vocals and her music showcase her vocal. If she’d given an opening performance that consisted of dancing around and fancy props/effects, then it would have taken away from her strong point as an artist and that’s what people want to see from her. Harry does not excel as a vocalist to that level - most of us aren’t looking to him for that. Also, saying that there is ‘zero merit’ to is convenient for you when all of this is subjective. Hence, I said before this that if you think he’s ready/the right fit then no one can tell you you’re wrong just like you shouldn’t be dismissing anyone else’s opinion just because it contradicts yours. Also, I looked up the numbers for the biggest selling pop albums of 2020 and Billboard tells me it’s ‘folklore.’ I’m unsure how accurate that is but that’s what the site says. I won’t be getting into what you said about Taylor as a performer because that’s your opinion and you’re entitled to that. 
Fourthly, we all acknowledge that Harry will be drawing in an audience due to his fanbase. This was never brought up at all and we were all simply focusing on his skills when discussing how suitable he is to do the opening performance.

Taylor Swift, Folklore
A track by track review by me - while sipping rum and coke and doodling aimlessing - a person who has never properly listened to Taylor Swift before
1. “The 1”: felt this, that’s all I have to say lol. I better strap in because this feels like a ride
2. “cardigan”: some good raw lyrics here, good vibe, good metaphors
3. “the last great american dynasty”: more upbeat? Didn’t really vibe with this one ngl
4. “exile (feat. Bon Iver)”: ‘I think I’ve seen this film before and I didn’t like the ending’, call and response was good, not fully vibin with this, ‘there is no amount of crying I could do for you’ is a good line
5. “my tears ricochet”: ‘Even on my worst day did I deserve, babe, all the hell you gave me?’ well fuck that, ‘if I am dead to you, why are you at the wake? Cursing my name’, she seems very.... sad. Did she have a breakup or somethin because all these songs just sound sad? I like this one though
6. “mirrorball”: eh, very airy, ‘I’ll show you every version of yourself tonight’, no real thoughts, was okay
7. “seven”: ‘sweet tea in the summer [...] and though I can’t recall your face, I still got love for you’ Ms Swift - I have stern words for you, ‘I’ve been meaning to tell you, your house is haunted’ might be one of my favourite lyrics so far, I will actually refer back to something I tagged a previous post with - I really cannot listen to new music without being hit with waves of memories. I like this one very much.
8. “august”: first one that got me bopping my head?? ‘August slipped away into a moment of time, ‘cause it wasn’t mine’, I was gonna type out a few lines but fuck it [insert whole bridge], Ms Swift can you stop bringing up shit I’m trying to get over please and thank you??
9. “this is me trying”: okay this title already has it in for me fuck, ‘I’ve been having a hard time adjusting’, ‘you’re a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town’
10. “illicit affairs”: ‘clandestine meetings and longing stares’, absolute brilliant parallels with ‘don’t call me ‘kid’, don’t call me ‘baby’’ and ‘don’t you call him ‘baby’’ from Cherry by Harry Styles, okay I love this one too many good lines
11. “invisible string”: who fucking hurt Taylor Swift for her to come out with songs like this?? ‘tying you to me’ parallel with ‘there’s still a thread that runs from your body to mine’ from Forgiveness by Paramore (feeling the alcohol now)
12. “mad woman”: ‘does she smile? Or does she say ‘fuck you forever’?’, this is.. slow, not really vibing, ‘now I breathe flames every time I talk’, okay maybe I do, definitely comes under my ‘anger’ playlist huh...
13. “epiphany”: I like the ambience, mm yeah not feeling this
14. “betty”: firstly, harmonica, secondly, why is she talking about homeroom how old is Taylor Swift?? ‘you heard the rumours from Inez’ ((John Paul Satre has entered the chat)), yeah little thoughts on this one it’s not my vibe sorry, oh fuck a key change, also I thought Taylor was a Problematic Ally - is she here saying that she liked a girl I am confusion, also throwback to track 2?
15. “peace”: hmmm some nice lyrics here? yeah not really.... feeling this. Was the pink album one the happy one? ‘Lover’? Wait was that only last year??? WHO HURT HER IN THE PAST YEAR TO MAKE THIS
16. “hoax”: I like the music of this already - reminds me of Sufjan Stevens, ‘I am ash from your fire’ oh fuck I love that, ‘I don’t want no other shade of blue than you’ hits me with so many parallels I can’t list them all.... wait it’s done? Album over?
Oh wow okay final thoughts I guess??
-I really enjoyed a few songs on the album: “cardigan”, “my tears ricochet”, “seven”, and “illicit affairs”
-she really is a good, poetical lyricist; her metaphors are nice, her lyrics create vivid pictures in my mind which is always good
-will I go and listen to her discography? Mmm maybe not. Might give ‘Lover’ a try for some more upbeat stuff
-I’m still apprehensive to give her my full support bc she might be Problematic but I don’t exactly know the full scope of Taylor Drama
-Love getting more and more drunk listening to Sad Taylor Swift lol
-Okay I will end this saying that she MAY deserve more credit than I have given her
So, “Folklore” gets a ‘yeah I may listen to some of these songs again’ out of 10

what are your top 10 yeehaw songs?
anon, this is the weirdest most unprompted ask i've gotten (just after that one anon that came and tried to prove to me taylor swift was a kkk supporter just because and all their sources where fucking facebook posts made by alt-right and neo-nazis lol) and i'm so happy you asked. i know i do talk a lot about country music in a joke like manner but i do really, really, love the music genre. it's the music i grew up listening to along with 80's and 70's rock and i’ve never felt ashamed of it, i still don’t know why it’s an internet joke as a whole but whatever...
Edit: as i was compiling this list i realized most people dislike country because they only know the post 9/11 country that is pro-war and pro-military. that’s not what country was about when it began, it was a protest movement, early country was anti establishment, sometimes anti-government because the people who started were southern “white trash”. they were the poor americans working the farms that were often forgotten by the big city folks and used the music to talk about their sorrows and life. i could write an entire essay about how country music betrayed itself and it’s own ideals in the last 20 years by becoming the “all-american” music genre when it’s a cousin of folk and blues, and very much a protest sound but that will be in another occasion. 
now as for my top 10... man, that’s a hard one and i’m sure as soon as i’m done posting this ask i’m gonna think of other songs i feel should be here, but going by gut, limiting myself to one per artist and in no particular order:
I Walk the Line by Johnny Cash, not only is this an iconic country song, it’s probably the most iconic Johnny Cash song ever probably only second to Folsom Prison Blues which is amazing too. i remember listening to this one with my dad
Stand By Your Man by Tammy Wynette, i can’t begin to tell you how much i listened to that song when i was a child. i love Tammy Wynette as an artist a lot, but this specific song it’s 1) fucking iconic, and 2) just pure gold. sure, the overall message it’s outdated, but the song is amazing. d-i-v-o-r-c-e is a great one, too.
Please Help Me I’m Falling (In Love With You) by Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette and Loreta Lynn, okay so this one is Tammy again buuuut it’s from the Honky Tonk Angels collab so like, it’s technically a different artist lmao. i don’t have anything to say other than i love this entire album but this specific song it’s incredible. that’s it, that’s my reason lol.
Here You Come Again by Dolly Parton, everyone loves Jolene and I Will Always Love You but this one is my personal favorite. it’s also from my favorite Dolly album and i just really love it, it makes me feel super happy and like bubbly which makes no sense cuz it’s a sad song lol
Love Me Tender by Elvis Presley, yep you read that right, Elvis himself. little fun fact but a lot of Elvis music is actually considered country music because back then rock and roll was being born and there wasn’t a defined different genre for it, so much of it fell under country. and i love this song, so i’m gonna use that loophole to include it here lol
Runnin’ Just In Case by Miranda Lambert, it was a challenge limiting myself to just one Miranda song cuz she’s probably my favorite country artist, i’ve been listening to her since she released Kerosene in 2005. a lot more recent than the previous ones, it still has that soulful sound of early country, and it even touches on that outlaw, unwanted feeling of early country. anything from her album The Weight of these Wings is good country, give it a listen to the entire album.
Girl Crush by Little Big Town, that you probably already know thanks to our Harry’s cover but the original version is so good and like... actual country lol no shade to H. it also was an outrage on the country community when it came out because people though they were singing about being lesbians on their good ole southerns radio lol 
Merry Go ‘Round by Kacey Musgraves, this one from her country debut spoke to me a lot when i first listened to her, and i feel like her rebelliousness to conform to modern country standards is what Dolly Parton and Tammy Wynette fought for. she’s taking country to the pre 9/11 country and that’s so badass of her.
Sixteen by Thomas Rhett, Thomas is the only man i kinda, sorta, but not really respect in country music (until Niall Horan finished his country transformation and joins the genre!). he decided he was gonna make country on his own terms too and i appreciate that, and i really like his style. this song reminds me of myself even tho it’s written from a man’s perspective but i love it. it’s youthful and cute and really good.
Red by Taylor Swift, of course there was gonna be a song from Taylor’s country time lol it’s me. Taylor never really committed to the country style, let’s be honest, but even tho her first three albums were more country sounding, this one from her last wave at it is my favorite country song of her. it’s not my favorite song of her, but it is my favorite of that country pop rock she tried in Speak Now and RED that i wish she came back to. actually, this one and Treacherous are both great. 
And that’s it lol most of them are by women, specially the modern country ones, because they’re least likely to fall into that patriotic, pro-government, pro-military country that started post 9/11. I have a lot more, 300+ more according to my own Spotify playlist of country favorites, but those are the ones I feel like at the top of my head. If you listen to them, have a good listen! If you don’t... well I recommend you do, they’re good music, give them a chance!

Times Taylor Swift did THAT:
Red
okay so, in light of all this discourse I decided to make a post about songs I love of Taylor’s and my favorite lyrics. In this case, the entire red album lol. let me know if you want me to do any other albums sometime soon too and which ones! alright here we go:
State of Grace
“we fall in love till it hurts or bleeds or fades in time” RTRTRT
“we learn to live with the pain, mosaic broken hearts” that IMAGERY really just gets me man, my heart
“you’re my Achilles heel” we love an allusion to greek mythology
Red
“like the colors in autumn so bright, just before they lose it all” the true beginning of associating red with the fall time, an ICONIC moment
“forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met” what a lyricist I think about this lyric all the time it’s just an incredible way of describing how impossible it is to forget someone you loved and i’m gonna cry if I keep typing
“losing him was blue like i’ve never known, missing him was dark grey all alone” yes taylor painting emotions with color and it’s so vivid
Treacherous
“and i’ll do anything you say, if you say it with your hands” okAY TAYLOR
“and I, I, I like it” me being drawn in and loving situations that are risky and most likely detrimental
“all we are is skin and bone trained to get along” one of my favorite lyrics of all time it just explains itself
I Knew You Were Trouble
“I guess you didn’t care, and I guess I liked that” once again RELATABLE also a theme of remaining in situations that we been knew will end rough
“a new notch in your belt, is all i’ll ever be” ouch harsh reality
“and the saddest fear comes creeping in, that you never loved me or her or anyone or anything yeaaaaah OOOOOOOH”
cause it’s a beautiful lyric and that 1989 tour version NOTE THOUGH YES VOCALS
ALL TOO WELL
“left my scarf there at your sister’s house and you still got it, in your drawer, even now.” just cause give the scarf back jake
“and I might be okay but i’m not fine at all” just a reminder as to where she was then versus now we love a glo up
“hey you call me up again just to break me like a promise” one of my favorite lyrics of ALL TIME scream it
also where is the 10 min version i’m still salty
22
“it feels like a perfect night for breakfast at midnight” i’m feeling late night waffle house vibes
“we’re happy free confused and lonely at the same time, it’s miserable and magical” my sister says this is exactly how being 22 feels
“you look like bad news, I gotta have you” hmm a theme of bad decisions once again? can relate!
bonus: “who is taylor swift anyway? ew” I love taylor making fun of herself
I Almost Do
(is always slept on)
“I bet it never ever occurred to you that I can't say ‘Hello’ to you and risk another goodbye” so beautiful and i’m obsessed with this line’s melody
“in my dreams you're touching my face and asking me if I wanna try again with you. and I almost do.” I just started crying typing this lyric and i’m not okay wow
“and I hope sometimes you wonder about me.” I love when taylor’s outros mirror the first verse so powerful UGH
We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
“when you said you needed space (what?)” lol her what is me with all boys always pulling the dumbest things
“like....ever” truly how I end all my arguments
“with some indie record that’s much cooler than mine” yes sarcasm tay and also 1989 tour version when she screamed this I got chills I was shook before shook was a thing
Stay Stay Stay
(my mama’s fave song of taylor’s!)
“no one else is gonna love me when I get mad, mad, mad” unconditional love got me thinking of joe SHE FOUND THE LOVE SHE WAS DAYDREAMING ABOUT GOOD GOD DONT TOUCH ME
“but you carry my groceries and now i’m always laughing” the way she says groceries I want on a loop as my ringtone
“it’s been occurring to me I’d like to hang out with you, for my whole life” yeah once again don’t touch me i’m not okay I wanna cry
The Last Time
(my child)
“put my name at the top of your list” yes make me your PRIORITY
“disappear when you come back, everything is better” and again, bad decisions that just feel so good
“This is the last time you tell me I've got it wrong,
This is the last time I say it's been you all along,
This is the last time I let you in my door,
This is the last time, I won't hurt you anymore” I LOVE A TAYLOR SWIFT BRIDGE also the harmonies on the “ohohohohoh” are to die for
Holy Ground
“back when you fit my poems like a perfect rhyme” y’all I love taylor swift lyrics I can’t even put into words they are everything
“and I see your face in every crowd” RETWEEEEEEEEEEEET
“but I don’t wanna dance, if i’m not dancing with you” I love it I love it I love it I love it that is some HOLY GROUND I think everyone can relate, honestly me with harry styles though. jk! (no i’m not)
Sad Beautiful Tragic
“words, how little they mean, when you’re a little too late” this can be applied to so many areas of life
“and you’ve got your demons and darling they all look like me” THIS. LYRIC. KEEPS ME UP AT NIGHT I WILL NEVER STOP LOVING IT AND TAYLOR SWIFT
“kiss me, try to fix it, could you just try to listen?” thank YOU taylor, when all someone wants to do is try and “fix” something but you really just need someone to listen to you I CAN RELATE @ all boys ever
The Lucky One
(I STAN IT)
“you had it figured out since you were in school, everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool” screw the popular kids lol
“and your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you” this lyric just gets me going I don’t know I get so aggressive at the industry and truly shout it lmao
“cause now my name is up in light, but I think you got it right” this lyric makes me feel emoooootions dude like it’s like her noting the moment she realized how brutal the media and fame is and the damaging effects because she’s living through it as she grows up :((((((
Everything Has Changed
“cause all I know is we said hello, and your eyes look like coming home” so cute, so real, the harmonies man, i’m soft!
“I'm feeling like I've missed you all this time” when you didn’t even know the person before but now you’re like, this is the piece that has been MISSING and taylor really has me in my feelings
“all I know is pouring rain, and that everything has changed” I love a taylor song with rain guys
Starlight
“we were 17 and crazy running wild, wild”
I just love that she had this magical idea from a picture she saw of bobby and ethel
“and we were dancing, dancing like we’re made of starlight, starlight” this song just feels sparkly and pretty. it’s just stunning and makes me happy
“don’t you dream impossible things” at the very end, the song fades out so glittery and pretty and I love love love it so in summation, starlight is an ethereal, sparkly, pretty song
Begin Again
“you pull my chair out and help me in, and you don’t know how nice that is but I do” cue the tears, she’s gotten used to people not treating her how deserves to be treated so the simplest gestures are amplified
“thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end but on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again” such a contrast from the rest of the album, I love how perfect this ending is. it shows that you will heal and pain isn’t permanent and wow i’m crying
“and for the first time, what’s past is past” YES SIS WE ARE MOVING ON WE ARE OPENING BACK UP TO BEGIN AGAIN YALL WE ARE CLOSING THIS ALBUM BEAUTIFULLY BECAUSE TAYLOR WEARS HEELS NOW OKAY

I'm dying laughing at the CEO of the Recording Academy trying to cover his ass cause he knew he made a mistake all while questioning if Harry's reached a "level of excellence to merit a nomination." But gave the Chainsmokers and Meghan fucking Trainor a Grammy. Where was the excellence from them? The Chainsmokers song was played at Frat parties and dirty basement, is that's excellence then I don't want Harry to reach that point.
i literally cannot believe
Anonymous said: My dad just texted me from work to see if I was okay because he got a call from the neighbours saying there’s been the same song on loop on full blast (that song is the Grammy robbed Sign of the Times by the Grammy deserving Harry Edward Styles)
DJNFBGUHFBJNHFIJNBFHJKF MEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anonymous said: I bet that one anon you got a few days ago is cackling and trying to talk shit about how they knew Harry isn't talented enough to get a Grammy or something stupid like that
they can ch*ke
Anonymous said: Niall did great things with his album and it got great hype by both the public and music producers so if his album made the deadline I would easily say his album deserved a nomination. But the other boys haven’t even released albums yet and their singles were just good for radio play.
i haven't listened to his album still lol but noah fence from what i saw it did not get nearly as great reviews and hype as harrys lol and idk why the others even bothered fhbgfjkvl
Anonymous said: Boycott the Grammys 2k18!
tru!!!
Anonymous said: I’m just going to air out my grievances if that’s ok- first of all,Harry’s management or record company stuffed up bad cos y’all know damn well the members don’t vote artists with a progressive sound into the rock category so you fucked up there. second - Bruno mars is clearly this ceremony’s Taylor swift cos idk how tf his flimsy song about material things got nominated over a relevant refreshing ballad like SOTT . Harry deserved better , but also, harry needs to fire some incompetent people ✌️
well harry made music he wanted lol not stuff thats gonna get played on the radio which i enjoy lol but yea bruno is the tswift this year....or j*y z
Anonymous said: The thing that sucks is he most likely was planning on going to the Grammys cause he's performing for Fleetwood Mac the day before, but now he's going to be in New York and not going.....
PLEASE :(
Anonymous said: I was really disappointed but more for him than me like my first thought was “I hope he’s alright and not too sad about it” And I really hope he understands that it doesn’t make him any less good because an award is just an award and it never defines who you are as an artist and as a person.
i know I'm so sad for him i hope he's okay :(
Anonymous said: Harry is the best artist in the world right now he doesn’t need awards!!
tru! but it would've been nice to even get a nom/recognition
Anonymous said: You can tell the Grammy' will just nominated any old shite. I mean Ed Sheeran has the biggest album of the year yet he isn't nominated. And i didn't even know JayZ had an album out and he's nominated. Like no offense but American music industry is just shit.
ed is nominated and some other categories which I'm sure he will win and literally same i had no idea jay z had music out lmao
Anonymous said: Scrap what i said, Zayn didn't get nominated. It was for songwriting and he didn't write that song.
good
Anonymous said: He got all that hype, he did that private show for them, they went his his first show in LA. They for sure used him for hype and media attention. Robbing bastards.
seriously
Anonymous said: A LOUIS FAN CLAIMING LOUIS DESERVED A NOM YALL I WAS SAD BUT NOT NOW. NOW A BITCH CANT STOP LAUGHING. HE AIN'T EVER GETTING SHIT
LMAOOOOO BYEEEEE AS IF
Anonymous said: I just hope he knows Grammys ain’t shit
honestly
Anonymous said: I know it’s not the end of the world, but I hope he’s not super disappointed and sad, because everyone hyped him up so much smh. Also, I bet this will change how he does promo and radio shit for his next album, they should get him a radio deal just for the fact that clearly that’s all these loser Grammy voters care about.
well if thats what he has to do to get a grammy i don't think that would be worth it and i don't think he would think that either
Anonymous said: Jay Z can fucking choke like his album? The shit he did to beyonce? I’m not fucking rewarding a man for being like that anymore, he can take his ancient ass somewhere else.
nasty
Anonymous said: Good, now I don’t have to watch the Grammys this year, I’m glad tbh since I’m not really a fan of any of the other nominees and I’m sick to death of hearing the same five songs all fucking year lol, that issues song? Fucking hate it, have since day one, can’t believe it got nominated for shit lol. However Jeff needs to get Harry a radio deal since clearly that’s all that matters to voters, considering Harry did all the courting of the voters he could and still got fucked.
i literally haven't even heard most of whats nominated its such a joke
Anonymous said: Most nominees in the important categories are poc so I’m not completely mad and besides Despacito or however you write it (which is a horrible song) they nominated well deserved ones. I still think SOTT should’ve got at least one nomination but I think that maybe because harry is fresh out of the oven they’re not gonna straight up give him a nomination even if he deserves it.
yea i mean its awesome theres actually diversity this year but SOTT literally deserved a ROTY nom
Anonymous said: Nah Harry will get Brit nominations because he’s respected in his own country, the Brits also nominated 1D they don’t hold being in a boy band against him which clearly the Grammy voters do, which is a real shame tbh. But the Grammys are continuing to dig their own grave and become more and more unimportant every year.
i cant wait till the grammys just make such a food of themselves no one goes
Anonymous said: Pls the whole Grammys is a conspiracy theory lol I told you
a mess
Anonymous said: The Grammys lost all credibility after giving Adele Album of the Year last year and not Beyonce. They stick to the basics and just anyone who doesn't "break the rules of music" Harry's first solo song was a 6 minute long rock ballad, which doesn't go with what was expected to be put out. They don't care for originality or you know talent, that's why Ed Sheeran's wack ass has won 🤷🏼‍♀️
SERIOUSLY
Anonymous said: He'll probably get nominated for Song of the year and Video of the year at the Brits. Pretty sure both are fan voted. Maybe best male as well. Also maybe best album but then again probably not because it depends. Also maybe global success. I can't think who else would get that right now. Maybe Ed Sheeran again.
i hope so
Anonymous said: Grammys? I don’t know her. Anyway I hope Harry knows how proud everyone is of him and I hope he’s proud of himself I love my baby 🤧💕
ME!!!!!!!!!!
Anonymous said: i feel so much for harry i mean he did everything he could he put out a phenomenal single and a stellar album and worked with amazing producers and writers and did the grammy performance thing and all that stuff with cbs and like i know im biased but he deserves SOME recognition for all of that like he really did put out amazing music this year that was so much more worthy than despacito like come on he was robbed i just hope he feels okay and valid bc he IS :(
i know :( like i hope he knows he still has done such incredible things this year and his album is so good and he doesn't need a stupid grammy anyway
Anonymous said: Taylor is nominated for two (one for the country song she wrote). Like no offense the the American music industry but you need to get your head out of Taylor arse and stop being snobs. SOTT deserved a nomination.
when will they stop kissing her ass
Anonymous said: Harry broke records held by legends, had a BBC special, performed at the record academy, and sold out an arena tour in minutes. So Julia Michaels and Ed Sheehan can take their boring ass music along with their nominations and shove it up their asses.
TBH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anonymous said: I’m sorry but I have to point out the irony. The lyrics of the song are literally stop your crying it’s a sign of the times. and I know there’s a deeper meaning, but this year fucking sucks
i know :(
Anonymous said: All that hype for nothing. Boy was robbed. Sign of the times deserves a Grammy.
ROBBED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anonymous said: Everyone knows no one, NO ONE deserved a nomination more then Harry. White old men disappointing me again. Like every fucking person said Harry deserved one. ISSUES AS SONG OF THE YEAR? YALL I NEED THEIR CRACK DEALER CAUSE CLEARLY ITS SOME GOOD SHIT TO GET YOU TO THINK FUCKING ISSUES IS SONG OF THE YEAR. Nah fuck them.
FUCK THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anonymous said: I’m so?? Noah fence but the songs that got nominated? What the fuck???? Harry deserved to be up there whether it was roty or aoty idc he just deserves to be nominated.
seriously
Anonymous said: LISTEN in 10 years time people will look back and say why the fuck wasn’t SOTT a Grammy winner... he is timeless and he’ll win in the end!! The Grammys are fucked
THEY WILL REGRET IT
Anonymous said: The Grammys just proved again how much they don’t matter lol, Harry’s song and album was on every single list as one of the best of the entire year, and the you know who wasn’t? Most of those other songs lmao so whatever man I know the Grammys matters to harry, but it doesn’t matter to me anymore they continue to be irrelevant and continue to nominate mediocrity.
its such a joke lmao
Anonymous said: Yeah honestly the Grammys really do only care about awarding the same people over and over again, and it’s like, no offense but who cares lol. I’m sure Jay Zs album is good but he’s nearly 50 and been nominated a ton like idc anymore lol. And I like Bruno mars but seriously? The songs he was nominated for really aren’t that great lmao.
seriously tho like j*y z has enough awards

The One With A List...Am I  A Blogger Yet?
well hello 2020.
the last few months of 2019 were pretty perfect.
had my first break from studying since beginning my masters a year and a half ago! So it has been great! I’ve been reading my fave book many life's many masters again in the hope of energizing my spiritual side. I’ve been spending quality time with friends. I went to a wonderful music festival- it was just fun through and through! I had a group of my uni friends there, a group of my life friends (lol) and another group who we all kinda knew from life and so it was such a vibe! also i volunteered. Highly recommend volunteering as a way to experience a festival! its great. we danced like nobody was watching, did yoga in the morning, played cards, went on a hike up a hill at the festival, climbed to the top of a bus lol ask me about this, we stayed up all night, we kissed and sang karaoke. it was fab! <3
My family came to visit from Perth and we all went away and i cried so much when they left. I am happy but would be so much happier or rather content if my family were here.
i went on an amazing date with a non-jew whyyyy i just didn't expect to like him so thought it could just be harmless fun-date experience. but nooooo we just had to have the same sense of humour, the same interests and different in just the right ways to keep conversation interesting. he’s pretty amazing but im also a romantic so yes ppl it is possible im being idealistic and romanticizing the idea of this person. I also have an amazing jew interested in me and yes he is kind, smart and balances me out in good ways too-however that sense of humour connection is just not there- im not silly with him you know?! so who do I choose?! also he has been my friend since I was 14 and yeah we had such a sweet first kiss but I feel like he likes me more and I am scared. he came down to where my fam and i were away and stayed with us for a day and they liked him-he seems great but we dont have that natural romantic connection? I am unsure- maybe I need to get to know him away from how we functioned as friends-get to know him intimately. 
Heres a list for fun of things that make me feel some kind of way:
- “Falling” Harry Styles (listening for the first time right now and its pretty beautiful and sad)
- “First Man” Camila Cabello
- “The Best Day” Taylor Swift
- Sunsets
-Sunrises
- Friends who let you be yourself
- Me exercising my boundaries (proud of myself)
- Poetry. specifically this poem at the moment: "Let everything happen to you Beauty and terror Just keep going No feeling is final.” Rainer Maria Rilke
- face masks
- receiving a heart felt sorry
- receiving a heart felt thank you
- giving a good gift
- exercise
- dancing
- singing
- playing the guitar
- listing to live music
- watching the ocean
- doing makeup with friends as we get ready to go out
- my best friend <3
- drinking water when thirsty! very grateful for clean drinking water
- Popping a pimple that has puss in it. sorry but its good.
- having a nap
- knowing I am loved
- seeing my niece and nephew
- a good slow kiss
- keep cups
- banana bread
- puppies
- rainbows
- trees moving in the wind
- waterfalls
- wearing thongs at the beach
- skipping hand in hand
- stars
- brene brown podcasts
- talking to people who are smarter than me and learning
- talking to people who think I am smart
- making people laugh
- belly laughs
- glitter
- playing CODENAMES the board game
Alright enough for now!
xxx
