#dont @ me for the song choice

[strangerthingssteddiebrainrot]

A little ficlet I was just inspired to write at 1am lol

Listen

Despite dating a rockstar, Steve was a pretty private person. Whenever he went with Eddie and the boys on tour, he'd wear sunglasses regardless of the actual weather conditions. Sometimes even a hat if he was really done with nosy reporters trying to figure out what his connection to Corroded Coffins lead singer was.

But it's been a long time since '89 when the band first took off and in the glorious year of 1999 they were finally outed by a reporter disguised as a waiter at the restaurant they were eating at and got a picture of them kissing if the corner of the private booth they were hiding in. Sales and the band's popularity took a hit sure, but so many new fans, freaks and outcasts and people just like them filled the void that they actually bounced back with more popularity than ever before. So Eddie and Steve agreed to do an interview on a daytime talk show, set the record straight and talk about themselves and their relationship openly for the first time. They talked about how high school cliques nearly kept them apart, but the spring break of '86, for all its tragedy and death and near death, brought them together and they worked hard to stay together. A true love story if there ever was one. It was freeing actually, finally being able to be open and Out, and if their love helped people, that was just a bonus.

Which is how no one, not even Eddie or the band knew about Steve's voice. He'd never been a singer, too insecure and beaten down to trust that he was actually good at something besides swinging a bat (and an ax, and Molotov cocktails). It was something he was working on, but change doesn't happen overnight and even now, in his early thirties, he still had never revealed his hidden talent to anyone other than Robin. And like, it's not like she ever said anything either! They sang sometimes back when they lived in each other's back pocket and she never said he was good, so he just assumed he was not terrible! Maybe the fact that she had a crush on Tammy Thompson and her 'muppet giving birth' singing should have been a clue. Steve just thought love made you blind.

So when, during the encore performance of Corroded Coffins latest show, Eddie gestures to him to come on stage, Steve tried to refuse at first. He waved him off laughing, but Eddie was persistent and the crowd caught on, chanting his name to come onstage. So he gave in, and god did he stick out like a sore thumb, light washed Levi's with a navy Henley, glasses on cause he had a migraine the day before from squinting at everything, it the crowd still cheered when he appeared, Eddie smiled at him all dimples and the guys gave an exaggerated slow clap at finally getting him onstage.

Eddie took his hand, the other one still holding his mike, and the band started up a cover of Tainted Love, one of the few songs that both Eddie and Steve agreed kicked ass. Maybe the lyrics didn't really reflect how they feel for each other, but watching Eddie sing to Steve, there was no doubt the man was very much in love. And when he held up the mike to Steve on the second chorus, Steve couldn't help but sing.

And oh, how Eddie's face dropped into open mouth shock, Steve had to catch his hand to keep the mike level. A quick glance showed the rest of the boys looked just as shocked, the music only continuing by pure muscle memory. Steve almost stopped singing, panicked that he was ruining the show with his voice, but the crowd was going wild and he could see the cameras flashing, and Eddie, Eddie was coming in close, the chorus over and he leaned in to Steve's ear and shouted, "don't stop!" So he didn't. And they finished the song together and thank god it was the last song in their set. So when Eddie pulled away and gave his goodbye with the rest of the band, Steve quickly walked offstage and headed to the green room, heart pounding a mile a minute.

It wasn't too long before the rest of the band piled in, and Eddie ran right to him, grabbing his face and kissing him hard.

Finally pulling away after too short a time, Eddie beamed at him. "How the fuck did I not know that you can sing?!"

Mind still a little scrambled from the kiss, Steve took a moment to answer. "Huh?"

Not the most eloquent, but he was still reeling from the loss of those lips against his own.

"Yeah man, when Ed said he was gonna pull you on stage, not gonna lie, I thought you were gonna sound awful." Garath said, earning a smack on the head from Jeff and Martin (unnamed freak).

"Not how I would've put it, but, I thought there was a reason you never sang with us before. So yeah, that was an unexpected surprise." Jeff smoothed over, knowing that so sometimes Steve's insecurities got the better if him, having mediated several fights between him and Eddie in the past.

"Holy shit baby, you were so good! I almost didn't remember to sing cause I was too busy falling even more in love with the most perfect man on earth!" Eddie gushed, gently shaking Steve by his shoulders.

"Cute, but also, get a room guys." Martin laughed. "But seriously Steve, you have a good voice. I don't know why we've been hiring background singers for some of our songs when we could've just had you do it instead."

"Oh, well, I-I don't know. I never thought I was a good singer yeah? Not for like, performing? I just wanted to kinda, ride the high of tonight, if that makes sense." Steve said, blushing and a little overwhelmed at the attention, but trying to embrace it and take the genuine compliments he was getting (something he struggled to do on a daily basis, neglectful parents having left their mark).

"First of all, bite me Martin," throwing his band mate the finger, Eddie was still beaming which softened the blow, the others laughing at him. "and second, Stevie, baby, you sound amazing! Light, but still raspy and sexy as hell." Giving him a peck on the cheek, Eddie whispered in his ear. "Gonna sing for me later big boy? In bed maybe?"

And what could Steve say to that? So he just pulled Eddie in for more kisses, deepening them regardless of the guys complaining.

The next day, the picture that was making waves in the music community was of Steve singing into the mike, Eddie looking at him with starts in his eyes and his face completely lovestruck.

Rapid Eyes as a series is so haunting in a subtle way it's great.

#my art #rapid eyes #like the dread that permeates it is so good. it starts so small and just grows in each installment #there are just so many small details that sneak up on you and ive been thinking about them nonstop #i dont normally talk about the music choice in tags but i was thinking that old timey vaguely haunting romance songs kinda fit #like to me the series seems to be about self love and imposter syndrom and red eyes to me feels like a manfistation of that #like red eyes gives me obsessive energy like hes some sort of desperate manfistation of wildly osceilationg feelins about ones self #and something about old as hell crackly romance songs give that obsessive complicated feeling. like something is off #unfiction

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

Was listening to music last night and thought of some songs that could (possibly) fit laughingstock! the ones that came to mind were "Everybody loves somebody" by Dean Martin, "I've got a feeling I'm falling" by Annette Hanshaw and "I wanna be loved by you" by Marilyn Monroe (pretty random? yes) I was wondering your opinion about them and what songs do you think would fit them! :)

stunning wonderful i can Especially dig the second one in relation to them - i can very much see Howdy singing it to himself!

#the chipper tunes definitely add to the Vibes #even if the song itself is handwavey! which! i think you got some good choices here #ive added all three to my Playlist! #i like that they're all very Pining... #can easily be read as a 'we cant but i wanna' thing yk? #man. period-accurate human au secret lovers laughingstock can i get a yeehaw #dont take that seriously #i am Not down to do that kind of research rn... #rambles from the bog #anyway songs i think fit them... #at present! not many! #ummm but there is: #i want you to want me by cheap trick / you make me feel so young by frank sinatra #fair by the amazing devil / dandelions by ruth b / strawberry mentos by leanna firestone #i wanna be your lover by the cascades #yeah <3

after sitting on the finale for a bit i can say that season was some musical theater genius and the next seasons could literally shit the bed and we will still always have this beautiful little eight episode chestnut. Would watch the broadway show

#hazbin hotel #alastor #people really werent getting that they were going for musical pacing #so many people are confused about this show because they expected western animation episodic pacing #and they got a stage musical #but personally ill always love short form like yessss give me a perfect chestnut yesss make the most of that episode count #like dont get me wrong id love a longer season but the show as it is now is tight and efficient #the REPRISES like it was so smart it lets you have a full song without the full time to establish it the second time around #and the way the Vs were incorporated into the finale in surgical bits #like. there is legitimately very little fat to trim here and the narrative choices are smart in how they parcel out the minutes #cant wait for the al fanfics

The Pythagoras Trio is everything. They have a guy who wants to be loved but gave up on it so focused his sights on lashing back at those who made him feel that way but somehow found people who loved him, making him desperately try to return that favour through the work he excelled at instead of by sharing who he really was. They also have a guy who grew up trying so hard despite being average until he miraculously got his dream but that was because of his brother, and even after he found his true talent he struggled with inferiority. And they also have a guy who basically sparkled with talent that was cultivated by someone who was using him to feel good about himself, a guy who loves so much because he was so lonely and desperate for friends and yet was ripped away from it because he could not abandon a friend who left him.

They're teammates. They're best friends. They're narrative foils of each other. They have violent fights. They understand each other like no one else can. They can't understand each other fully. They have the drama, the support, the angsty breakups and divorces, the emotional getting back together, the brotherhood, the comic relief trio role, the secrets - they really have it all.

#of course i also love fly away (insane duo) and mezzo (wholesome duo) #but like i said trios have a special Flavour to me #by the way why do we call iori and riku fly away after their song? #dont they represent the double flat and double sharp? like we are missing out on calling them like.... #....double accidentals or accidentalx2 or something #anyway yamatos arc (ft. mitsuki) did a number on me and now nagis arc is doing a number on me #i wonder if we'll get a bit more on the izumi bros #cause its fascinating that they both take very significant but still for some reason secondary (by choice too) roles #i love them so much #fandom spamdom #note's notes #idolish7

zeno's ultimate pokemiku tierlist ⁉️(it's all his opinion and he loves them all regardless⁉️)

#like arrfgggdiakaktmcksmsama this was literally all for me like they knew what they were doing #i love character design i love pokemon i love miku. and then you put ALL THREE TOGETHER.... #i will explain some of my choices here #poison miku is just too good but also i am a big sucker for freaky scientists with constant “worry” eyebrows #her design is just so out there and crazy (this is about the shoes. some understand the greatness of the shoes and some dont. and thats ok.) #every other miku in peak i think establishes their theme exeptionally well especially ghost bug and fighting #for ghost i already love spooky and gloomy looking characters and that miku delivers tenfold (of course shes designed by the GOAT take) #esp with the mix of ghostly and electronic/digital regarding the glitchy parts n the 01 hologram #she looks like shell invade my computer and give it a virus if i dont send the chainmail about her tragic file corruption to 10 friends #(in the best way possible) #for bug miku the big dress is a huge plus but also i just think shes adorable nuff said #for fighting - i love a delinquent character and she fits that really well. the half coat thing is a big highlight for me #also the leek theme is absolutely iconic #for the ones i didnt like as much - i honestly just think the koraidon one is a leeeeetle bit boring #dont get me wrong. it has really cool aspects like the hair and the koraidon like cape but idk #it feels like theres a lot going on but not that much at the same time? its still a really nice design tho esp the hair color #for the ones in yellow tier - i just dont like the color palletes very much . theyre still really nice designs esp fire miku #but all in all these are genuinely all amazing designs and i dont want to be too critical or mean to any of them esp seeing im not a pro #but this was really fun to see unfold!!! cant wait until the songs start dropping #in the topic of miku as well - hey muse dash where's my miku on the switch version.... #please dont make us wait too long 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

There's a universe somewhere where instead of making Neil's ring tone "Runaway train" Andrew made it "I'm not okay!" By MCR

#does this change anythung about the series? #not really but i just want confirmation that andrew likes mcr #dont get me wrong runaway train is a fantastic choice #but the fact its the only song we have confirmed that andrew listens to is jarring #like its not what id expect from him #but idk maybe he likes a range #i like both maybe he does too #or maybe he picked something he thought neil would like bc he knows neil doesnt like loud music #aftg #all for the game #andrew minyard #neil josten #andreil

half of people say that guilty is about taemin killing all his bunkmates, and half of people say its about him turning them all gay, but theyre kind of the same thing when u look at thru the lens of guilt = sin, and in his eyes hes "damned them" by turning them to a life of homosexuality (but for real this time). also the "guilty pleasure" aspect where pleasure = sin and vice versa. everyone he touches becomes gay (gives in to pleasure), and by association becomes "guilty" (sinful), and at the same time he has his own guilt about making them that way, tho hes kinda like "welp, it is what it is" about it. its all so extremely gay catholic in that way.

#99.txt #taemin #and here i thought want was the gay catholic song. and then i thought it was idea. and now this #well i guess they all are #anyway this isnt really anything its just kinda my vague thoughts on it rn #this is the gayest taemin video yet tho. on account of the actual gay romance in it #im sorry it didnt click for me at first. i still dont really Love a lot of the aesthetic choices.... i think they could have done better #in some areas #but when i ignore the aesthetics and look at the themes of the video & the actual song i love it #i will say this 100x but i think if u wanna do grungy destruction then surely u can find a way to do it in an original way that doesnt look #exactly the same as every kpop video thats done that since 2011.... #my biggest gripe

Dancin'!

rottmnt boys x Winged person reader

Relationship; Rise Raph x reader, Rise Donnie x reader, Rise Leo x reader, Rise Mikey x reader (all separate ofc)

Romantic or platonic?; romantic

Reader type; G/N reader, reader has bird wings (type of bird not specified!)

It was a nice spring night, almost impossibly nice for early April. Yokai all over the hidden city had gathered at one of the largest and most beautiful gardens for a night of celebrating the warmer weather and coming summer, alongside the anniversary of the day yokai and humans' acceptance of each other into their societies. Although both groups still had a majority of their people staying where they were before, some yokai and some humans had moves into NYC and the Hidden City respectively.

Tonight, however, was not the time to reflect, as a young couple roamed the park. Hand in hand, a turtle and their winged lover strolled beneath the string lights and warm air, enjoying eachothers company and the night. Some people, both human and yokai, recognized the turtle as one of the mutants who made this all possible, with the defeat of the kraang and the societies integrations, but nobody dared bother the two when they looked so at peace and happy together.

The two approached a courtyard of sorts, lined with short brick walls and well lit. music grew louder as they approached, and both opted to dance.

Raph

Raph enjoyed strolling through the large park with you. the whole night you'd both been getting looks ranging from 'i want what they have' to 'IS THAT THE GUY WHO BEAT THE KRAANG??'

either way, you both opted to ignore them, continuing to move towards the music

by the time you two got there the song that had been playing had ended and a new one was about to begin

as the song began to play and as the song came to life with vocals and drums he quickly looked over to you

you were already rocking and swaying to the best, your wings and feathers fluttering and puffing in time with the beat

when the lyrics actually registered all that was said between you two was a quick "may I have this dance?" before you were immediately a whirlwind of movement

Raph was spinning and twirling and dipping you, entranced with how happy you seemed, and your wings would flare themselves or spread out straight behind you during fast spins

for a majority of the song you had kept your wings close to your body when you could, but at the second chorus or so you both split off to dance together but not together

your wings moved quickly and full of energy in time with the beats and your arms while you twisting and ducked and at one point even took off for a second with a especially powerful beat

the whole time Raph hadn't noticed he'd come to a stop, just watching how violent and stunning you were and how the lights filtered through your feathers only making you stand out more among the vivid colors and moving crowds

by the end of the song you were both exhausted and happy together, opting to sit out for a bit and just bask in eachothers company

Donnie

The whole night he'd been more hunched in on himself than usual, trying to about the prying eyes of some people while also being angry at anybody who stared

In an attempt to bring him some relief from the staring you'd dragged him towards the courtyard, where nobody was paying attention to anybody else and everyone was dancing

by the time you two got there the song was starting, and coincidentally Donnie really liked the song. to the point where you two had danced to it before and choreographed some little dances for certain parts

a majority of the song was just spinning around each other in something that resembled more of a fight than a dance. at some points he'd gently grab your hands and pull you towards him, twisting his arms over your front so you were back to chest with him as you swayed

but after the lull in the song he decided it would be a good idea to just spin. he knew spinning was kinda your go-to when you didn't know what to do, and he didn't know what to do either

as he latched on and began to spin you both shared a wicked grin as you picked up speed and before long you both were a tornado of color in the middle of a circle the crowd had made to avoid getting hit

once the world was just colors and music and his face, you flung your wings open, flaring them in all their glory to catch the light before holding them close but still out behind you. before long they'd drifted to be parallel with your arms, encasing you both

when the song ended and you both stumbled giggling out everyone was either impressed or pissed, but quickly forgot that when the next song started. you both opted out though, needing a minute for your heads to stop spinning and a minute to yourselves

Leo

The whole night you'd both been getting looks, and he just basked in the attention, even if he didn't like some of the looks people gave the two of you

you definitely didn't like the stares, and tried to shrink in on yourself as much as possible

he noticed this early on and when he heard the music he knew what to do. he grabbed your hand and led you both to the music, where the song had just ended

And, of course, you both got lucky! a song you both enjoyed came on, and immediately he grabbed you by the hand and spun you both into a dance

the song was high energy, which was just what you'd needed to come out of your shell a little more. as the chorus came on you let go of eachothers hands to lean in and lip sync at each other before just continuing dancing

infact, the entire song was lip synced by you both, which eventually became singing. you both had listened to the song before and designated parts that you liked singing

as the final chorus approached you both split again and your wings were on full display as you spun and danced and flaunted them around

you both came back together just at the end for a final spin, your wings on full display and not a care in the world. the energy was higher than ever and you both were having the time of your lives out on the dancefloor!

when the song ended you both needed a minute and a drink, your laughter infectious for the crowd and anybody who passed you on your journey to the nearest vending machine

Mikey

Tonight had been a lot so far. you two had sent plenty of death glares at people who hadn't minded their stares and were both annoyed.

and apparently you both needed a pick me up because you automatically drifted towards the music

as the song started it was ironic that they'd played a song you both liked, but neither of you could complain when it was plenty high energy and an excuse to go crazy

the entire song your wings were flared as you both circled each other and spun and danced and dipped. Mikey sang along for a majority of the song and occasionally you'd join him on the chorus

the energy was infectious as the crowd also began to have fun with it, but your wings cleared a path for you two that kept you both away from the crowd

your wings were gliding and dipping with the beat, completely independent of your arms, and whenever Mikey decided to dance face to face they'd wrap loosely around the two of you, close but never touching

before the second chorus was the first time he'd done this, intertwining your fingers and holding both your hands by your faces

during the part between the same chorus and the next one he'd gotten into the song, dancing and spinning almost independent from you, if it weren't for all the times he'd waltz away and come back for you to dip and twirl him

by the end of the song he was more winded than you were, his curse of using dance to express himself more than you did, and it led you both off to find a snack vendor for his blood sugar

I can’t sleep because I can’t stop thinking about this. And I know. I KNOW that I am approaching this from a very western perspecitve with my western upbringing and western expectations. But gmmtv started it by playing Vivaldi…VIVALDI…in the Ossan’t Love trailer and that was just the entirely wrong choice. Listen, I can explain more if y’all want (and when I’m not supposed to be asleep) but that song choice for the trailer has my eye twitching and I have a whole essay in my head for why

#do i tag this? #fuck it sure feel free to yell at me about it #gmmtv #gmmtv 2024 #ossan's love thailand #there is a correct song choice btw #i will give a cookie to anyone who knows the correct song choice #fucking. vivaldi is not. is not it #and i dont have anything against the four seasons #gorgeous piece of music but my god hearing it in the trailer is haunting me

[newdejavuu]

#i am NOT a taylor swift fan so the fact i didn't like the collab is not surprising to me #i just dont get why you'd extend the offer of a collaboration to such a talented vocalist like patrick #(who could have performed in his higher register if that was what taylor + producers wanted) #with some weird vocal filter or pitch manipulator #like. that is NOT patrick's voice and the volume of his parts blend unnecessarily into the rest of the music so you cant HEAR him anyway #what you do hear sounds almost indistinguishable from taylor's parts so. why even ask him to feature on the song aksjdfdklas #bad production choices were made imo #i have much more to say akjdljskfja but i know a lot of people really really like taylor's music so i don't want to shit on it so much #but anyway. it was like a 4/10 for me #taylor swift #anti taylor swift #(not really but I do NOT want her fans coming after me)

[paint-it-dead]

does anybody have any casca song recs or playlists?? i am in desperate need of new music to broaden my music taste cus ive already exhausted all my music options and i need more songs that remind me of her...

#my absolute first choices are “i bet on losing dogs” and “your best american girl” by mitski #also “california” “how to disappear” and maybe “black beauty” by lana del rey?? #i havent decided whether “get free” is about her or griffith yet... #i might have a couple of ts songs that remind me of her but i dont think anybody wants to hear those lol #and so on and so on #there are a lot more but these come off the top of my head aghhh #anyways gimme recs pleaseeee #berserk #casca #casca berserk
