there is something so cool about this unspoken juxtaposition rule in the more psychologically volatile genres, where the lyrics are bleak and anxious, always tapping into darker territory, but the melody remains beautiful and oddly comforting. i have been re-looping lots of carissa’s wierd - songs about leaving lately, and now this thought refuses to leave me alone. idk!!!! it’s just such a common case where something viscerally crushing happens to produce the most tender and fragile sounds, and i know it is a bit of a cornplate-level observation, but i have been pondering a lot about this

everyone goes through struggles and sometimes the only thing you need for that is some very sad music. songs about leaving is probably one of the most beautiful but also one of the most soul crushingly sad albums ever. we’re talking ugly crying at 4am in bed. it’s great!

for fans of dream pop – this album is so beautiful but so depressing so I can’t listen to it often 😅 it reminds me a lot of a time when I felt super lonely and isolated but I think it makes me reflect on how much has changed for the better too. but anyway I just think the songs are good :)

found a new, quite educational hobby recently - randomly sneaking into bazaars in hopes that i get to watch old ladies having a heated argument.. no other demographic has a cuss game more innovative than them. the location is pretty vital here, too.
