I keep meaning to say! I have kind of sort of been doing a music blog for the last couple of weeks! It was one of those weird things where I wanted to have it separate from my internet ~identity~ for awhile, I don't know, I've only mentioned it to two people. Plus I have always sort of kind of felt weird talking about music on lj more than a little bit, it's like there's a very specific subsection of people who also care but... it is not everyone. It is basically just a lot of rambling about songs I like, but if a lot of words about (mostly) indie pop (but also some pop pop and who knows what else) sounds like your thing, it's here.

ANYWAY MUCH MORE IMPORTANTLY, after the Good Wife finale aired thecolorbetween asked for a repeat of this red paint picspam.

This picspam took FOREVER because I would just get stuck on the tequila scene because I love like EVERY POSSIBLE CAP YOU COULD MAKE OF IT, they're all slightly, subtly different in the best way. MANAGED TO GET OVER IT EVENTUALLY, OBVIOUSLY


In middle school I imprinted on this moderately shitty (but also SO GREAT) fantasy trilogy (except not really because ten years later AND THE FINAL BOOK STILL DOES NOT EXIST) by Melanie Rawn called the Ruins of Ambrai but there is this line in it I love that I think about all the time, which was about how good sex with someone you love involves laughter. They're not quite to that part yet but that is what this cap reminds me of, both of their faces: they're both embarrassed giggly, but in a good way.


(Was going to scrawl "YOU ARE MY BOY", or possibly "BAD BOY" on the left cap, but then decided I was too in love with everything about it to deface it)

your picspams are really all i need in life, true story.

HOWEVER, you missed this cap right here:



AS YOU CAN SEE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT

[elapses.livejournal.com]

jk though never stop

[veils.livejournal.com]

he can't help his face and i can't help wanting to make out with it, i guess :(

[elapses.livejournal.com]

lol so how long do you figure before you cave and watch Sports Night?

[veils.livejournal.com]

idk, how much of it is actually about sports?

[elapses.livejournal.com]

I was about to say "that's like asking how much of FNL is about football" but you don't watch that

And I actually think Sports Night is even less about sports than FNL about football

Idk bb, my interest in sports is neglible unless it's Olympic season and I liked it?

[veils.livejournal.com]

then probably about five minutes

or like a week, idk

[elapses.livejournal.com]

i mean, the real issues here are

1) preserving your internet reputation as a person who has never watched a sorkin show
2) the ~ship~ plot in season 2 is the actual stupidest
3) lol 90s (but this doesn't count)

[veils.livejournal.com]

hmmmmm, well, i have never watched a sorkin anything, i'm pretty sure, and tbh i kind of like that reputation, plus i hate stupid ship plots


but i have been nostalgic for the nineties lately

[book-babe.livejournal.com]

i love this comment enough that i am jumping in just to let you know that.

[veils.livejournal.com]

i think writing my thoughts about will as will saying them about himself on caps of his face then posting them at random in alexandra's journal is going to become a... thing, with me. so i'm glad you liked it! lololol.

[thecolorbetween.livejournal.com]

Alexandra, thank you for this.

[thecolorbetween.livejournal.com]

Alex, there would be (was? will be? is? MAJORLY CONFUSED about tenses in this summer of waiting and anticipation) so much laughter. Oh my goodness, Alex, that is just the greatest image, it is what I will always think of now! I say that both with so much seriousness and so much flailing. Oh, his face in that cap to the right of "wake up to your wonderland." GOOD LORD, ALL THE HOPE IN THE WORLD.

Are some of these K-pop lyrics?

[elapses.livejournal.com]

THEY ARE JUST THOSE PEOPLE, AREN'T THEY? You can see it in so much of these scenes, they just keep smiiiiiling, that's the best part. BUT HIS AND (WHAT YOU CAN SEE OF HERS) IN THAT ONE, yes, that fits in perfectly too.

THEY'RE ALL KPOP LYRICS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEXPqmmXDRw#t=83), that was part of the request. I think she's saying wonderland, anyway.

[thecolorbetween.livejournal.com]

THEY ARE. Especially the way those two play them, I think. Ugh, don't want to think about how we probably won't even get to see that laughter, regardless of what happens. And yes, her face, too! You are right.

OKAY, I WAS JUST MAKING SURE.

[elapses.livejournal.com]

don't want to think about how we probably won't even get to see that laughter, regardless of what happens.
DOUBTFUL BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT'S KIND OF NICE TO JUST FEEL IT

I'm so cheesy

[thecolorbetween.livejournal.com]

It's so nice to just feel it! Seriously, though, I think that will now be the number one thing I want in fic, across multiple couples!

[ambiguousreason.livejournal.com]

Words about music are possibly my favorite kind of words, so YES, following!!

[elapses.livejournal.com]

WHAT ABOUT LAME WORDS ABOUT MUSIC, how do you feel about those, Molly?!

(but no really thank you I am glad!)

[care-says.livejournal.com]

Eeeeee, you posted about Jenny Owen Youngs! She is my faaaaavorite. And probably one of my biggest "celebrity crushes", by which I mean...I wish she were my girlfriend and have been wishing that for like four years.

[elapses.livejournal.com]

She's adorable!!! And that song is like, one of my favorites ever I think, I cannot get enough of it, I come back to it every summer. Not going to her concert in '09 is one of the dumber music decisions I've made.

[sailtonorway.livejournal.com]

!!!! You started a music blog! I've actually been wanting to do that for a while, but I've always felt so pressured to sound ~eloquent and intelligent~ with the technical aspects of music which I have nooo idea to even begin with. But with tumblr it just seems like a low-stakes, no pressure type of deal. I am definitely following your blog and I'm so happy for it!

[elapses.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh Rini YOU SHOULD, you would be so good at it! But yeah that's why I've always put it off too, it's scary!! You're so right about there being something lower-pressure about tumblr, and the music upload feature is so convenient.

[book-babe.livejournal.com]

I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU, THAT IS ALL.

[elapses.livejournal.com]

:3

[book-babe.livejournal.com]

PS THEIR FACES IN THE FOURTH CAP. SO MUCH LOVE. also for this entire post and all the caps ever.

no but really this made me happy. they are so perfect. also this post.

also looool i love that i creepily found + reblogged the michelle branch post from tumblr whenever it was that that was, like a month and a half ago, i am awesome, or something.

[elapses.livejournal.com]

I KNOW RIGHT THEY'RE JUST SO LIKE, happy and embarrassed

also l o l oh my god melissa i don't think i would have known you did that if i didn't say that (idk tumblr never told me? and i am bad at logging in?) but crying oh my god you are my favorite ridiculous person

[torigates.livejournal.com]

THEY HAVE EXCELLENT FACES! I approve of this immensely!

[elapses.livejournal.com]

THEY DO HAVE EXCELLENT FACES!

[forthesky.livejournal.com]

Lol I wanted to make some indignant comment about how you keep popping up on different places on the internet and not telling your flist and that you should stop but really, don't stop. I love the blog so much!!!!!!!! I have already heard so much stuff that I absolutely adore, or am just nodding along with your comments in agreement (OVEIDO!!!!! You were right and I was wrong, it is the best Blind Pilot song and I really do think it is one of my fave songs ever). Also I was actually going to email you the other day and be like LISTEN TO KIMBRA SHE IS SO YOUR THING but of course you have already discovered her. She did a duet with Gotye! I don't know if you've heard it but it is my favourite thing!



I love how you think it's just a song about some dude's broken heart and then she chimes in with this whole other perspective about the relationship. Also their voices and their faces are quite excellent. Is it weird to say two singers have chemistry in a music video? Because I think they have chemistry. Also the way she moves over to him during "I don't wanna live that way" blahhhhhhh it is so perfect. I just love this video.

[elapses.livejournal.com]

I don't know why I feel the need to be sneaky!! I can't think of what else I would even do though, so. Hopefully no hiding in the near future. BUT AHH THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Also you are sweet and so right, she is like, perfect 4 me I cannot get enough of her. I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS DUET AT ALL BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH I COULD JUST DIE RIGHT NOW, thank you omg!! Everything you said!!! YES! Brb watching it a thousand more times.

YOUR ICON IS SO PRETTY
