I really need season 2 of Blue Eye Samurai to get the full arcane treatment, not only so that it gets all the recognition and budget it deserves, but also so that we can get a BES S02 soundtrack with Mitski, Florence Welch, and Ethel Cain on it.

the lyric “happiness hit her like a bullet in the back” is so freakin genius I could go on forever about it. there’s so many layers.

firstly, the happiness. a SURPRISE. we’ve spent the whole song talking about how she is evading happiness, and how she’s running from things, but this happiness surprised her! it wasn’t supposed to happen, but she is happy that it did, even if it was unexpected.

then of course, the fact that it was in the back. this happiness wasn’t supposed to happen. it was a betrayal, a fluke, something born from something ugly then turned into something happy, which ties back to the surprise part.

and this might seem inconsequential, but the fact it was a BULLET. the bullet hit her in the back. it was a duel she was in, a constant struggle, and her opponent betrayed her and killed her illegally, bringing her surprising happiness. there are so many ways to interpret this, for example the idea of letting go of something hurting and feeling like it was a betrayal but ultimately being necessary and for the better, but my favorite is;

the idea her outrunning things has finally caught up to her, and it has shot her in the back. it made it so she can’t outrun things, betraying a constant part of herself, yet she finds out she’s happier when she doesn’t, even though she wasn’t supposed to. that way it can tie in with the rest of the idea. that, and the title and lyric “Dog Days Are Over” suggests the idea that things are ending, and what better to end than the self-sabotaging thing?

I also want to look at the first lyric like this, “Happiness hit her like a train on the track. Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back.”

This implies something more reckless, more accidental, and yet more purposeful. She’s standing on a track, and a train hits her. But that happiness that just hit her is messy and accidental and she had no choice but to let it come to her.

Compared to the second one, the one that I mentioned first, this happiness if done by somebody. Somebody mentioned in the next line, “struck from a great height, by someone who should have known better and didn’t.”

This somebody knew her reckless past with happiness. It knew that it came suddenly for her and left easily, too, and that she also left it (the running thing). This person should have known not to give it to her, but they had to. So they betrayed her. This ended the Dog Days, or her running days. this opponent that I mentioned earlier in the duel (the struggle) is still trying to help, but she can’t see that. she wants to run but she can’t.

also, the whole “run fast for (people)” could mean that she thinks she has to run to protect everyone else, and this mysterious person wants to show her she doesn’t have to but can’t find a better way. Then the whole “can you hear the horses, cause here they come,” might mean that the horses (what she’s running from, her past/happiness) are going to come now too, now that she’s staying. She’s warning him.

Also, because this is turning into a whole song thing, the bridge. Or what I think is the bridge. “And I never wanted anything from you, except everything you had and what was left after that too,” this being before the bullet thing shows that she was aware of her self-sabotaging ways, and wanted to take them from the person. She knew what she had done to others and couldn’t let that happen to her.

She didn’t need to take, she needed to be given to.

Anywho yeah, Dog Days Are Over is one of my favorite Florence + The Machine songs even if it is popular. It’s so good and for someone who loves doing deep dives on things it’s a jackpot. So are a lot of her songs, actually.

Let me know if you ever want more!

Absolute travesty that tumblr does not go more insane over Florence and the Machine. If this website heard Girls Against God no one would ever get over it.

Florence Welsh being way too relatable with lyrics like this:

"I am freaking out in the middle of the street / with the complete conviction of someone who's never had anything actually really bad happen to them / But I am committed to the feeling"

This might be the brainrot talking but hear me out

Florence and the machine - Wish that you were here are the perfect Ed and Stede song

"And I never minded being on my own Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home To be where you are But even closer to you, you seem so very far And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing And I hope it gets to you on some pacific wind Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here We all need something watching over us Be it the falcons, the clouds or the cross And then the sea swept in and left us all speechless

Tell me i am right and not have a rotting brain

I watched the Apple Music interview and I knew Flo had a thing about bare feet but when they mentioned she’d be the one in front of the stage in bare feet, dancing around the broken bottles and get her feet cut…. Idk why that hit me. And Flo laughed and said yeah who’d think that person would make it… but Zane was like no we knew

Kate Bush - The Kick Inside (1978)

The Kick Inside, o primeiro álbum de Kate Bush, está quase a fazer quarenta e cinco anos de idade. É tempo de celebrar o disco e a artista, pelo que (re)ouvir essa sua estreia musical é o nosso bom conselho para hoje.

A estreia de Kate Bush no mundo da música deu-se de forma inesperada e bela. The Kick Inside foi o pontapé de saída para outros voos, todos eles intensos e gloriosos. Parece um conto de fadas, daqueles da Disney, em que uma jovem dos subúrbios de uma grande capital acaba, num ápice, por se tornar rainha do seu tempo. Foi mais ou menos isso que aconteceu na vida de uma menina de dezanove anos…
