every 5th!
okay so im gonna list an aviators and tanuki song for each prompt (because theyre my FAVS) but also a song by another artist. also gonna put a read more as this is a little long
5:A song that needs to be played LOUD
Aviators - Bleeding Sun: BADASS song about a cyborg created by the elite of society to protect them and their property, but she turns against them and begins hunting them down when she realizes how they oppress the other citizens
Tanuki - Your Friendly Local Arsonist: that chorus is just so addicting, and the song is also about how people are silenced by those in power iirc
The All-American Rejects - Gives You Hell: this song helped me a ton in getting through high school. i would feel so overwhelmed and exhausted all the time and this song would help keep me going
10:A song that makes you sad
Aviators - I Don’t Want to Hurt You: about a father who exiles himself because hes afraid his addiction will make him hurt his daughter, sung during his last hours before death
Tanuki - The Fire . The Fear . The Fall: i dont know exactly what its about but its definitely about suffering and carrying heavy burdens in some way, and its just saturated by emotion
Porter Robinson & Madeon - Shelter: holy shit such a beautiful song and music video i cried listening to it multiple times back when it first came out
15:A song that is a cover by another artist
i dont think tanuki has covered anything before so yeah lol
Aviators - Hurt: covering nine inch nails. i loooove the tritones in the verses, and the chorus just feels so warm and heartfelt
Disturbed - The Sound Of Silence: covering simon & garfunkel. such a grand piece, feels like something you would sing floating in the sky to the ears of the entire world
20:A song that has many meanings to you
yeahhh i pretty much settle on one meaning for like every song i listen to, but ill do my best
Aviators - Constellations: ive always thought this song was about feeling a connection with others across the world who want for something more, but i guess it could also be about missing someone youve lost
Tanuki - Choke: while this song has a specific personal meaning for aleks about his disdain for a person who used their religion to criticize him, i sort of adopt it as an anthem for lgbt people struggling against bigots.
and yeah cant really think of anything else for this one
25:A song by an artist no longer living
lmao aviators and tanuki are both definitely alive so another exception
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody: like come on honestly god shouldve made freddie mercury immortal
30:A song that reminds you of yourself
Aviators - Psychoactive: because its about rly liking sex lmao
Tanuki - Release: about filling our lives with things to distract us and give us an escape from suffering and make our lives feel more meaningful, which is something i empathize with big time
Owl City - Fireflies: this song radiates this sense of wonder and awe that i relate to a lot regarding like being autistic and having special interests
thank u! omg that took a really long time my moms probably gonna be mad. but it was fun!
