top 5 artists with their best song and why ? :p

ok i love you you have saved me but have also awakened a monster. irs below the cut its sonlong sorry you dont have to read it BUT AGAIN THANK YOU YOU ARE MY SAVIOR<<33

1. Cocteau Twins

I think my favorite song from them is Frou Frou in Midsummer Fires but im feeling off about that answer but only cause ive listened to it such an obscene amount its like. im almost sick of it . due to my depression its hard for me to enjoy any artist anymore but basically i love Frou Frou because i listened to it most in such a god awful time in my life and it encapsulated that feeling so perfectly..... so powerful and devastating sounding. Cocteau Twins is just beautiful in general and they are the artist ive liked most of their discography which is the reason theyre my favorite artist hee hee. My favorite album of all time is from them as well and its Blue Bell Knoll :-) I also love Tishbite it'd probably be my second favorite song from them

2. Queen

when i was obsessed with them i had decided on Dead on Time being my favorite song from them but i feel like thats changed by now hehe so just for fun i'll list some HEAVILY underrated songs imo

- A Winter's Tale

- You Take My Breath Away

- Liar

- Nevermore

- Funny How Love Is

- The Millionaire Waltz

- Spread Your Wings

- She Makes Me (Stormtrooper In Stilettos)

- It's Late

- My Melancholy Blues

- In Only Seven Days (the story told in this story is so sad and cute at the same time)

- It's A Hard Life (the intro is actually breathtaking omfg)

3. The Beatles

this answer is highly embarrassing but just because of the impact they had on my psyche in quarantine im putting them. like they mean so fucking much to me

so much like Queen, I declared A Day In The Life my favorite song but again am not really sure about that cause when i listen to it it doesnt sound as good lol.... obviously good but not as amazing as it did. i dont tjink there are under rated songs from the beatles so i think some next contenders for favorite song would be

- Ticket to Ride

- The Long and Winding Road

- Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da

my favorite album is Magical Mystery Tour i also really love the Please Please Me and Beatles For Sale albums

4. Twenty One Pilots

Ok favorite band since i was 10 and again maybe this answer has changed since then but i love Taxi Cab so much : ) i think it truthfully ismy favorite song from them. i cant really say why i just like the way the story is told and also love Tylers voice what can i say ...<3 please everyone needs to listen to all of their albums 1. Regional at Best 2. Self Titled 3. Vessel and 4. Blurryface literally all of my favorite songs ever... so much nostalgia in all of the songs on there.. i think Vessel is my favorite album of theirs but omg ughhh i cannot pick i also love Regional at Best because its so sad sounding ok omg i need to wrap this up

5. Electric Light Orchestra or Bee Gees HELP I CANT PICK!!

so im tied between the two because ... I think objectively, ELO sounds better but I like more of Bee Gees songs... i cant pick whos sound i like moar.... so because this is tumpler, and there are no rules, i will give my favorite sonf for each of them, since ironically they're the only bands I have decided and know for certain these songs are definitely my favorite

for Electric Light Orchestra: Big Wheels

for Bee Gees: Dogs

THANK YOU DOR THIS QUASTION it was so fun

#SHORTER than i thought #i wish i could have talked about cocteau twins more but it would just end up in me combusting before i could post it #i #asks

I'm reading a book right now by a guy called David Marx about the universal human desire for status, and how it organises and informs the greater part of our identities - way beyond the obvious, conscious decisions we make about the clothes we wear, or the music we listen to. His assertion is that this drive for status, or the anxiety about losing or maintaining it, underpins wider class structures and in this way is key to understanding so much of human behaviours and motivations.

Marx explains that sociological phenomena of counter-cultures, subcultures or alternative cultures, generally come about as a way of smaller groups, often people shut out or unable to gain high or normal 'global status' (i.e. wealth, social capital), creating their own forms of cultural capital, often in direct opposition to the the global status values, and thus achieving a degree of 'local status' within their own communities and cultures. When he uses Punk as an example, his mentions of Jonny Rotten and the like aren't the most flattering, but it's hard to disagree with his overall thesis. More often than not choosing to be into something like Punk is less about truly being an individual, and more about finding a scene or community where what you say, think and do has value or esteem. Sometimes that means breaking rules and conventions, but more often than not, it means ascribing to more status markers than those you're able to bend or break in order to gain status and esteem. That's not to say the ideology of Punk as an act of questioning or rejection of certain norms, values, aesthetics, norms, isn't valid or important, and that this line of questioning should just as easily be focused on the hypocrisies of external wider cultures, as much as the internal culture of Punk. However, I do think it tells us something more about the wider sociology of Punk and Alternative music scenes or subcultures; you're membership of this smaller tribe makes you more of an 'individual' in relation to the 'global social order' but you're 'just another' Punk / Grunger / Metalhead / Goth / Skater within the context of your own community culture.

That's a very long, not to mention largely unnecessary and unrelated, preamble to this music video by Title Fight. This is a band I've been hesitant to post about, despite the fact they probably are one of my favourite bands of all time. I've never said that to anyone, and honestly, I feel kind of embarrassed even writing that down. And being the solipsistic type of fella I am, I thought I'd indulge in a bit of self-reflection as to why I should feel shame or any strong feelings when it comes to posting about a band from 10 years on a Tumblr with 2 followers, so here we are...🤷‍♂️

There is no status to be gained by admitting you like Title Fight, if anything it's probably a status killer. On a global, normie level their brand of Pop-ish, post-hardcore-ish, emo-ish, Punk is simply angsty guitar music for teens ('grow up'!) and on a local level, i.e. within Punk / Hardcore circles, they're popularity and notoriety make them mall punk / emo adjacent ('grow up'!), or at the very least, not a deep cut band for punk-hardcore heads, anyhow.

I guess what I'm describing are the mechanics behind the idea of 'guilty pleasures', i.e. cultural objects that by their association don't earn you any social or cultural clout, and in fact may even damage your credibility or status. What's useful about guilty pleasures is that they tell you when you really, authentically like something, and needless to say, we shouldn't really care about credibility when it comes to things that bring joy into your life. And this song, album and video brings a lot of joy into mine still. I've probably aged more into Hyperview than Shed (see I can be age appropriate at times!) but these song still does the business. I didn't actually realise how many of their music videos I'd missed, but this definitely captures the melancholy autumnal adolescent vibes of the first album well. I'm glad it's shot on a sort of 16mm / VHS film stock, making it feel more timeless and less 2010s. That said, looking at what the band are wearing reminds me of how much Polo Ralph Lauren there was in punk and, particularly, hardcore back then. Good times.

Anyhow, I don't earn cool points by liking this band or music video, but I guess neither do I earn them by being into Punk and Hardcore at my big age. At this point, globally, locally, or however you cut it, there's very little status to be gained by a guy in his late thirties listening to music that's ostensibly by and for angry adolescents. In fact as a I get older a lot of this latent status anxiety seems to ebb away, for the most part anyhow, which hopefully means less concern about clout, or fear of guilt and shame around choices and association. More joy, less guilt. Punk is pleasure.

eight days a week, i love you

Or, eight obscure times Amy Santiago fell in love with Jake Peralta all over again.

Amy heard the music before she even reached the apartment door.

It was upbeat, sugary. If she had to guess she’d say Taylor Swift, in either her Speak Now or Red era.

On top of the music was a male voice (albeit not a very good one) singing right along with Taylor at the top of his lungs.

A smile crept onto her face as she reached the door, not even bothering to knock. He’d have never heard it anyway.

“Babe?” Amy called as she opened the door, only to be greeted by Mine (album version, obviously) blasting through Jake’s way-too-fancy speakers. She didn’t know if she should be proud or embarrassed that she knew the exact TSwift song he was playing. She chose to be proud.

Stepping out of her shoes, Amy rounded the corner only to find Jake alone in the kitchen, holding a wooden spoon up to his mouth as he screamed along with the song.

“Do you remember we were sitting there on the water...”

He was turned away from her, jumping up and down and shaking his butt from side to side with each word. It was quite possibly the most adorable thing Amy had ever seen.

“You put your arm around me...FOR THE FIRST TIME…”

Her hand came up to her mouth, unable to contain her giggles any longer.

“...You made a rebel of a careful man’s careful daughter…”

Amy slid off her purse and coat, setting them on the floor with a thud. The sound caused Jake to finally turn around. His eyes lit up, but he didn’t stop dancing or singing. Instead, he jumped over to the counter, grabbed a rogue ladle and handed it to Amy. She gladly accepted the makeshift microphone as he pulled her to the center of the kitchen and spun her around the room.

“You are the best thing that’s ever been MINEEEEE.”

If you had asked Amy what she and Jake would be doing for their six month anniversary, it would most definitely not have included her being blindfolded in the back of a town car.

“Jake, where are you taking me?” she asked for what felt like the millionth time.

“You’ll find out soooon!” Jake sang out to her left.

Amy to let out a frustrated groan.

“I swear to god Peralta if you don’t take this blindfold off of me…”

“‘I swear to god Peralta if you don’t take this blindfold off of me’ title of our sex tape,” Jake interjected, earning him a punch to the shoulder.

“Okay, okay,” he said with a laugh. “But seriously, we’re like thirty seconds away.”

And sure enough, Amy felt the car begin to slow before coming to complete stop.

“Can I get out now?”

“Patience, young Padawan.”

She heard the click of his seatbelt, followed by his door opening and shutting. Amy began to feel around for her own door handle, wanting to take matters into her own hands, but before she could get very far the door was opened for her, causing her to practically fall out the side of the car.

“Easy there, Ames,” said Jake as he took her hand and guided her out the door. Once she was out, he let go of her hand and began to untie the blindfold. “Ready?”

Amy nodded, and Jake pulled the blindfold away to reveal the front of the New York Public Library.

Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. “The library?” Amy asked. “But it’s closed now.”

“To most people, yes,” Jake said. “But tonight, we are not most people.”

“What do you mean?”

Jake smiled as he slipped his hand back into hers.

“I mean tonight, we are Library VIPs who get to spend the night sleeping amongst the finest literary masterpieces the world has to offer.”

Amy’s jaw dropped.

“Shut up,” she exclaimed. “SHUT UP!”

“I will not,” Jake replied, his smile widening at Amy’s response.

Amy was practically vibrating with excitement. “This is AMAZING. Oh my god, we really get to sleep in one of the five most important libraries in the country? Sixteen-year-old Amy would be peeing herself right now! Thirty-three-year-old Amy is pretty close herself.”

“Thirty-three-year-old Amy is also a giant nerd,” said Jake, but he was laughing.

“Yeah she is,” Amy agreed. “But she still managed to find the best boyfriend ever!”

She gave Jake a quick kiss before dragging him up the stairs and into the library, where they spent the night running through the hallowed halls and looking at every artifact and book Amy could get her hands on.

III

Amy woke up from a cramp-induced nap one Saturday to a string of texts from a very distressed Jake.

6:12pm

Help I’m in the tampon aisle and I have no idea what to buy.

6:13pm

Ames. SOS.

6:16pm

Ammmyyyyyyyyyy

6:17pm

Ok people are looking at me. They must think I’m a giant weirdo.

6:18pm

There’s super, light, cardboard, plastic, non-applicator...HOW ARE THERE SO MANY CHOICES?!

6:20pm

If you don’t respond in the next two minutes I’m buying them all.

6:22pm

THESE ARE SO EXPENSIVE OH MY GOD.

6:22pm

This makes zero sense. You literally need them?? Why do you have to pay so much for something that half the population needs?! I don’t understand.

6:23pm

Ah HA there’s a multipack. I’m getting that. If it doesn’t have what you need I’ll return them. Can you return tampons?

6:27pm

I got mint chocolate chip ice cream too. The good kind with brownie bits. Be home in 15. Xoxo

Amy had just finished up her last piece of paperwork and was getting ready slip her coat on and head home.

“Babe, you ready?” she asked Jake, who was playing on his phone with his headphones in.

“Huh?” he said, looking up in surprise. He pulled out one of the earbuds. “What’d you say?”

“I asked if you were ready to go,” Amy repeated. She stood up swiftly and went to look at Jake’s phone. “Whatcha playing?”

But rather than showing her the screen, Jake yanked the phone out away from her.

“Nothing,” he said quickly.

Amy raised her eyebrows. “For being a detective you sure are a crappy liar. Show me the screen.”

She lunged for the phone, but Jake once again moved it out of her reach.

“No can do,” said Jake, dangling the phone above Amy’s head.

“Come on, Peralta. Show it to me!”

“Nope.”

He stood up, holding the phone even higher out of her reach.

“Ha HA!” You’ll never get it now,” he said with a cackle.

“That’s what you think,” Amy said as she lunged for his sides and squeezed. Jake let out a very high pitched scream and immediately dropped the phone into Amy’s outreached hand.

“HA!” she cried triumphantly. “Now let’s see what you were --”

Amy’s voice trailed off the moment she clicked open the phone. On the screen were a variety of household objects each with the matching Spanish word underneath them. She looked up to see Jake with hand on his head, clearly embarrassed.

“What is this?” Amy asked, the corner of her mouth twitching up into a smile.

“It’s a language app,” he explained. “Rosa told me about it a couple of weeks ago.”

“I see that,” she said as she looked through the app. “Why do you have it?”

“Because,” Jake said with a shrug. “You speak Spanish. And I know how much you miss speaking it when you’re not at home. I figured I might as well learn a bit. I was kinda going to surprise you on our anniversary,” he added with a sheepish grin.

“Jake…” she started. Her smile widened as she stepped closer to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. “You didn’t have to do that.”

“Sure I did,” he replied, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close. “It’s important to you so it’s important to me, too.”

“You’re amazing,” she sighed, her heart swelling as she gave him a gentle kiss. “Can I hear some of it?”

“Ah…” Jake gave a nervous laugh. “I’m not very good yet.”

“That’s okay!” Amy gave him an encouraging smile. “I won’t judge.”

Jake thought for a moment before returning her smile.

“Te quiero tanto.”

Amy’s heart swelled at his effort, at the sound of her first language tumbling out of his mouth. It was the most beautiful sound she’d ever heard.

“Te quiero tanto también.”

“Her kid saw the whole thing. We’re waiting for a social worker to come get him, but until then we’ve got him set up over there.”

The beat cop nodded to a corner of the apartment-turned-crime scene.

Amy’s heart broke at the sight of the little boy huddled against the wall, his body covered in a standard issue medical blanket that absolutely dwarfed him. There were tear tracks running down his dirt covered cheeks, and he had a smaller threadbare blanket clutched in the crook of his elbow.

“Has he told you anything?” she asked, not taking her eyes off the boy. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Jake bring a hand up to his face.

The cop shook his head.

“Nothing. We were hoping one of you would have better luck.”

Amy tore her eyes off the boy long enough to look up at Jake. His eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes hardened with a mix of concern and a deep-rooted anger Amy knew he harbored for any parent who hurt their kid.

“You want me to talk to him?” she asked quietly.

“No,” he replied with a small shake of the head. “I’ve got this.”

His eyes softened as he slowly made his way to where the child sat with his knees pulled up to his chest. Amy watched as Jake crouched down to the boy’s level, being careful not to make any sudden movements.

“Hey buddy,” Jake said kindly. “Mind if I sit down?”

The boy just stared at him. Jake carefully leaned back against the wall and sat down, crossing his legs.

“That’s a cool blanket. You must really like dinosaurs, huh?”

If Amy hadn’t been looking right at him, she’d have thought it was a trick of the light. But no, the child had, in fact, given Jake a tiny nod. Jake smiled.

“So do I. My favorite was always the T-Rex. In fact, when I was five I told my friend Gina I wanted to be a T-Rex when I grow up.”

One corner of the boy’s mouth flicked up, almost into a smile.

“My name’s Jake,” he told the boy. “I’m here to help you, okay?”

Again the boy nodded.

“Me and my friend Amy,” Jake pointed at Amy, who waved and gave him a kind smile, “We want to help you, but to do that we need to know your name. Can you tell me your name?”

“Charlie,” the boy whispered. His voice was tiny, petrified.

“Thank you so much,” Jake said, his eyes not leaving the boy’s gaze. “Now Charlie, can you tell me how old you are?”

“Four.”

“Great, Charlie. You’re doing great,” Jake repeated. He gave the boy another warm grin.

An hour later Charlie was asleep in Jake’s lap, one hand clutching the dinosaur blanket while the other clung to Jake’s shirt.

Amy offered to take over so he could stand and stretch, but Jake shook his head.

“I’m fine right here.”

“AMY!”

Amy woke with a start, immediately on high alert at the sound of panic in Jake’s voice.

“What is it?” she asked. Terror filled every part of her body, as she looked around the room to find the source of Jake’s fear. Figgis was supposed to be in jail. They’d made sure of that. So what was going on?

She couldn’t see anything, couldn’t hear anything other than Jake’s continued screams.

It wasn’t until he accidentally hit her leg that Amy realized Jake was still in bed beside her, dead asleep but having a nightmare that was very real to him.

“No, not Amy!” Jake shouted again, tossing from side to side. “Leave her alone!”

At once her heart rate began to decrease, the adrenaline receding as she slid back into bed.

“Jake?” she said softly. “Jake, I’m right here. I’m okay.”

Somewhere deep inside Jake must have heard her, because the thrashing stopped almost immediately.

“Amy! Where are you?” he yelled. Amy could feel tears threatening to form as she slowly reached out and rubbed his shoulder.

“I’m right here, babe. We’re safe, okay? I’m right here and I love you so much.”

“Amy?” he asked, his voice bordering on a whimper.

“Yeah, Jake, it’s me,” she replied, scooting closer so her body was just inches away from his. “I’m okay. You’re okay. Just go to sleep.”

She continued to talk to him in low, hushed tones, repeating the same words over and over until he was no longer talking at all, until his body was calm enough for her to wrap him in her arms and hold him as tight as she could.

Until he knew he was safe.

VII

Jake and Amy were spending Christmas with the entire Santiago clan. Over the span of 48 hours, Jake had met all seven brothers, their wives, and the twenty nieces and nephews they’d bought gifts for. He had to be overwhelmed, but if he was he didn’t show it.

Christmas morning was spent at the family home, with everyone crowded into the living room sitting on every surface that wasn’t taken up by presents. Amy and Jake, for instance, were seated on the floor, their backs up against the coffee table for a bit of added support. In Amy’s lap sat Manny, her two year old nephew who was not in the mood to wait to open his presents. To pass the time, Amy and Manny were playing a little game.

“Manny, what’s my name?” Amy asked, pointing to herself. “What’s my name?”

“Ti Amy,” he said, poking Amy in the chest to emphasize his point.

“Good job!” she exclaimed. She pointed at her niece who was sitting to her left.

“Who’s this?”

“Nessa!”

“Yep, that’s Vanessa,” Amy replied with a smile. Next she pointed to Jake.

“How ‘bout this guy? Who’s this, Manny?”

Manny stared blankly back at her.

“Manny, who am I?” Jake asked, pointing at himself.

Still nothing.

“Silly Manny,” piped up Vanessa. “That’s Tio Jake! Can you say Tio Jake?”

“Tio Ake,” repeated Manny. Amy saw Jake’s eyes light up. They’d never called him Tio before.

“That’s me,” he replied. He looked over at Amy and gave her a giant smile. “Tio Jake.”

Amy’s heart melted.

VIII

The morning after he proposed Jake had purposefully gotten both of them the day off. So rather than waking up to their usual three alarms, Amy woke up on her own to the sun coming in through their bedroom window. For a brief moment it felt like any other morning, until she brought her hand up and saw the ring sparkle in the morning light. A smile immediately formed on her face, just as it had the night before. She couldn’t help it; she’d never been this happy, this content in her entire life.

She pulled her arm fully out of the covers and held it out in front of her, admiring how each slight turn of the hand brought out a different element of the ring.

Amy was so captivated by her hand that she didn’t notice how Jake had taken resident in the doorway and was now watching her with an equally giant smile.

“Good morning, fiancé,” he said, snapping Amy out of her trance.

“Hi fiancé,” she said, dropping her hand and peering up at him with a sheepish grin. “What are you doing up so early?”

Jake took an exaggerated step towards her, keeping his hands behind his back.

“I’ve got something for you,” he replied.

“You know you just got me a ring, right?” Amy asked, giving him a look. “I think you’ve done your share of gift giving for a while.”

“Yeah but I think you’ll like this,” Jake said as he approached the bed. “I actually made it myself.”

“You made it?” she asked tentatively. Jake wasn’t exactly known for his crafting ability.

“Mhmm,” he nodded. “Close your eyes.”

Amy narrowed her eyes.

“Come on, trust me,” Jake said, prodding her along. Amy rolled her eyes but obeyed.

“Okay, now hold out your hands.”

Amy obliged, placing her arms out in front of her. She felt Jake’s weight on the bed as he sat beside her and set something large and rectangular in her hands. It was light, but sturdy, made of some sort of stiff plastic. The material was familiar, like something she’d felt a thousand times before. Actually it kind of felt like…

“Is this a binder?” she asked, excitement seeping into her voice.

“Open your eyes and find out.”

Amy did as she was told and immediately felt her jaw drop.

It was in fact, a binder, but it was clearly so much more than that. It was two inches, maybe two and a half, and bright white. Inserted in the front cover was paper (the nice kind from her favorite craft store) decorated with at least a hundred wedding-themed stickers that included a tuxedo, champagne glasses, and multiple flower bouquets. Mixed in with the stickers were also pictures of the two of them from various stages in their relationship, including a picture they had just taken the night before. At the center of the paper was the title in Jake’s lopsided cursive: Jake, Amy, and the Best Wedding Ever.

“Oh my god…” Amy whispered. She ran her hand over the cover before finally looking up to see Jake watching her, his eyes full of nerves.

“You like it?” he asked her. “I thought you could use it to plan the wedding. Originally I was going to put some tabs or dividers inside, but I didn’t know which kinds you would want. And if you want a bigger size I can get that, or a different color, but white usually goes with weddings, right? So --”

“Jake,” she said, cutting him off.

“What?”

She grinned, bringing a hand up to wipe the tears that had formed in her eyes.

“It’s absolutely perfect.”

jennie is so smol ;; jennie is the smolest

i'm sorry, i was distracted by the thicc

mood tbh she is also fluent in english lmao

pack your shiT ALEXA WE'RE GOING TO KOREA

y ES theyre all really cute and entertaining, they dont go over the top, but theyre still pretty funny - as funny as a girl group can be anyway

pfft i find all of them entertaining tbh. show me some songs fam

o, alrighty. this is a dance practice, it was the first thing that was released and everyone went nuts

((Then she showed me the dance practice video))

lisa is the one with shorts, jennie has the cap, rose is the one with braids and the last one is jenniejisoo

oof, a bit too edgy for my taste, sorry. but the routine is great!

well, they were kinda made to be badass

yeah, i figured

also, a little side note

their company is one of the biggest companies out there, but theyre known for their shitty management, as in, they dont really give idols many comebacks or promotions, so they dont have many songs;; even tho they debuted two years ago

well, that kinda sucks

yep..

i imagine this business is pretty finicky behind the scenes. i guess it can’t be all sugar and glitter all the time

true.. anyway, this is is one of the two songs in their debut ep lol

((Then she showed me “Whistle”))

also, may i add, their mvs are hella aesthetic

they seem to be.. not a fan of the super edgy american-ish songs though

yeh, their second ep was better. this is from the second ep

((Then she showed me “Playing With Fire”))

pyromaniac title, piano in the first second. this one's gon' be gud

yeah, this one was definitely better - well, not objectively, just imo

yeah then theres this beautiful beautiful song

((Then she showed me “Stay”))

that title gives me the hibby jibbies

y e p p

nvm i saw a mcdonalds in the background and now i'm chuckling

sdfdsdfg honestly the mv is So Pretty

ALEXA I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR SAD TIMES

shhh its a nice lil song just dont read the lyrics lmao

...i'm reading the lyrics now I THOUGHT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE A BADASS GROUP WHAT IS THIS

the chorus is so nice tho, with the claps

it is.. well, that was mildly depressing

at the end they hold hands and laugh and jump around in a circle in the mv and its just.. i rlly like the mv and the filter is very pretty

a e s t h e t i c

anyway, back to badass

((Then she showed me “Ddu-du Ddu-du”...?))

this is their most recent release, this time with a mini album

and i see thanos’s throne is back

y eS

these sets look expensive as fucc.. is that a fennec fox?

maybe..

and the evil parrot from rio? what is this, a crossover episode?

THE MOST AMBITIOUS CROSSOVER

first we had the shrek 2 song, now this they gon' hit me with dat turu turu du alexa halp meh

i k r wat u gon do

is that.. a sparkly tank?

y ES jennie is an icon

i feel like i've ascended

tbh all these things were so unnecessary yet they did it anyway

well i certainly don’t regret it

that breakdown at the end is kinda cheap, but i think the diamond tank made up for it

definitely

sdfvbvGJHGthere are two mvs left

oh, just.. just two?

y es

i feel bad for them ;; did u say it's been two years

yeah..

this is so r00d

yes, always feel bad for yg artists

what’s yg?

its a company - their company

ah, i see

their shitty company

oof

here's their debut song (which i dont really like but Oh Well.)

((Then she showed me “Boombaya”..? who the hell comes up with these names?))

well, in all fairness if they're one of the biggest they probably have a lot of bands to manage

not really.. they had very successful bands though, so that kinda paved the way for the ones nowadays

ALEXA THESE FUCKING LYRICS ARE KILLING ME

ASDFGBFVDS MOOD CLICK CLACK BADDABING BADDABOOM QUEEN

"i'm so hot i need a fan i don't want a boy i need a man" BISH YOU'RE A 5 FOOT 20-SOMETHING ASIAN IDOL CHILL

y ES fashion icon

ikr theres one last mv, and its better, trust me

..alright...

theyre cute in this one

((Then she showed me “As If It’s Your Last”))

jisoo is the one with the heart magnet and i love her

awh ;; man these titles are edgier than 13 year old me

oh come on, its a love song

that dancing, it's s-so lewd <-<;;

it iS oh, i forgot lisa's rap is in english

n o i c e i didn't know jennie had her own ice cream business

girl is going places okay but 1:36

what about it?

th-the cotton candy part

pfff

sorry i remember the first time and saw it and was like fukc thas cute

well, it was. it was pure ;;

alright, final thoughts?

well, they're a bunch of cute and talented dorks, but that ain't nothing new. either way, 10/10 for the lewd dancing and the fact that they speak english. give dem more comebacks, fam

they have lewder choreos, but thats for another day. justice4blackpinkcomeback edition
