Read back on this for fun. And now I have another ramble. Yay.
Honestly, I actually do kinda like songs that kinda tell you that “it’s hard right now, but it’s gonna be OK in the future.” Yeah, I’m basic. We don’t need that kind of reassurance all the time, but sometimes… hey, it might help a little.
On the other hand, also somehow like the songs that sort of explain the dreadful situation…. And then that’s kind of it. You can just listen and realize that the song is putting your feelings into the words you could never find. And then you get to listen to that song and bathe in agony for a little while! Cuz sometimes I also don’t like hearing “oh it’s gonna be OK” and I just wanna take a shower, but the shower water is just heaps of feels instead of actual H2O.
On the other OTHER hand (don’t ask where or how this 3rd hand came to be, that’s confidential info), songs like you described — songs where they try to at least hint at a solution are also nice to listen to. Especially the one that kinda “points the finger back at you” as you described it.
Take NF’s song, “Change.” It sorta is a “bathe in agony” song but it also describes how the speaker’s been stuck in a rut for a while, and he can’t seem to get out of it. He doesn’t wanna try changing. But towards the end of it, he practically says “I don’t like change but I’ll try it.” (Although, because it is also 40% “bathe in agony” type of song, it doesn’t end up 100% positive.)
Damn, reading that one paragraph about how “only you can fix yourself” had me thinking for a long heckin’ while. Kinda helped in a way OK ramble over. That was long sorry 😅
@The Yobanashi Girouette, OK, we can call a truce XD I don’t want to ever hear of RyoTeo again. Anyone who mentions it will see their fav APS character die. :)
@The Yobanashi Girouette, W H A T- NOOOOO! Bro stop you’re putting really cursed images in my mind right now ;-; Idk if I can see Ryo and Teo E V E R being a couple like bruh what?? The closest thing you’ll get to a couple is maaaaybe Kitano x *unknown guy* but ANYTHING ELSE IS CURSED
@The Yobanashi Girouette, I was thinking, like, drawing Isaac and Tenshi or Charles and Isaac as ships (I do NOT ship those but it’d be a good move in this ship-war) but uhhhhh idk how comfortable I am with that-
also NO! CURSED SHIP FANFIC IS WORSE THAN FANART! Why do I feel like you’d do Ryo x Mateo or something really cursed 😭
@Cheeto, Fair XD I just feel so old when I go back to stuff I used to do when I was a teen, and don't enjoy it as much anymore. Please don't curse me with ship fanart >w<
@The Yobanashi Girouette, “although less angsty ones these days, ‘cause I’m an old man”
Heyyyyy! No! You’re not an old man, bro. Young people listen to less-angsty songs too. Keep talking like that and I’m doing cursed fanart (maybe cursed ship art if I really wanna go that far) of your OCs >:(
but yeah, you right. Having comfort songs is kinda crucial for me, and I have quite a few (ex: “Sleep Thru Ur Alarms” by lontalius, practically 20 of NF’s songs, etc etc) because without them I’d kinda go haywire.
That is quite a comment XD Plus, Cheeto's 3rd hand confirmed? 0o0
But yeah, not gonna lie, I like my comfort songs and agony/angsty songs as much as the next (although, less the angsty ones these days, 'cause I'm an old man). I'm probably not the only one, but I like to make tune lists based on the emotion I'm feeling/want to feel, so having all kinds of songs is important for that.
But yeah, I truly believe at the end of the day only we can fix ourselves. Other people can help us along the way, but like they say, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Glad I was able to help, even just a little bit, though ^^
@The Yobanashi Girouette, but… you got lots of comments. AND YOU ARE A PUN MASTER NOW. I gave up my (initially underserved anyway) crown to you. Ain’t that a good thing?

OK ramble over. That was long sorry 😅
...understood :3
I don’t want to ever hear of RyoTeo again. Anyone who mentions it will see their fav APS character die. :)
ok but srsly if you do RyoTeo or some other cursed stuff then my only rebuttal is Chisaac.
….And you don’t want THAT, do you now??
That is the eternal question of our conversational parkour XD
NOOOOO!
Bro stop you’re putting really cursed images in my mind right now ;-;
Idk if I can see Ryo and Teo E V E R being a couple like bruh what??
The closest thing you’ll get to a couple is maaaaybe Kitano x *unknown guy* but ANYTHING ELSE IS CURSED
How did we get here—?
also NO! CURSED SHIP FANFIC IS WORSE THAN FANART!
Why do I feel like you’d do Ryo x Mateo or something really cursed 😭
(jkjk lol. If I don’t want you doing cursed ship art of APS characters, I get why you wouldn’t want the same.)
Heyyyyy! No! You’re not an old man, bro. Young people listen to less-angsty songs too. Keep talking like that and I’m doing cursed fanart (maybe cursed ship art if I really wanna go that far) of your OCs >:(

also yes, third hand confirmed XD
But yeah, not gonna lie, I like my comfort songs and agony/angsty songs as much as the next (although, less the angsty ones these days, 'cause I'm an old man).

Also, that's a deep reason for your love of Vocaloid XD. Not a bad thing tho. Honestly, I just like certain music just... well, because.
Y'all win, is that fair? I'm crap outta luck here; my brain's fried and I can't be bothered to make any more puns. :)
Call me a quitter, but I just have the sense to know when continuing somethin's not worth it.
Good puns tho.
But stop Straussing about it, man.
I'll be...Bach.
HA! I bet you can't even measure up to me!
What? Are these too much to Handel?
PUNS FOR LIFE
(It's okay, puns are life XD)
(this is so unoriginal I'm so sorry-)
But nah, I'll give the dad jokes a rest...
>:3
... I'm not emo, I just like the music 😅
(Same thing with NF. I get sooo embarrassed when I play an NF song and another person is next to me, because I'm pretty sure they'd find me weird.)
It's always interesting finding out peoples tastes, though. Also, what music they really don't like is usually equally interesting XD
