Meanwhile, over in the Times, Royston has had ENOUGH DAMMIT

This comment is more autistic than I am.

It must be nice to have so few problems that the way in which music on Radio 3 is announced becomes ‘intensely’ annoying

trufax: I used to kick my instrument a lot. It was a big beastly marimba though, so it took its lumps like a champ. I’ve also kicked my share of bass amps, too. And thrown a lot of mallets. Sometimes at people.

Song Lyrics

I wasn’t tagged but this seemed fun.

Rules: write the first ten songs that come up on shuffle (no skipping) and write your favorite lyrics from each song, then tag ten people.

1. Nightwish – The Heart Asks Pleasure First

A dead calm winter morn,
Morning birds, and a smile of a stranger

2. Tracy Chapman – Fast Car

And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone 

3. She Wants Revenge – Someone Must Get Hurt

The decision is in there will be no fight
It might sound cold but I know it’s right
‘Cause someone must get hurt and it won’t be me

4. Silverchair – Across The Night

I don’t wanna be lonely I just wanna be alone

5. Poets of the Fall – All The Way/ 4U

And you haven’t had a chance yet to taste this
Fragments of a life you shouldn’t miss

6. Tove Lo – Not On Drugs

I’m queen of the clouds, make my wish come true
I sing to the night, let me sing to you

7. System of a Down – This Cocaine Makes Me Feel Like I’m On This Song

Killers never hurt feelings

8. Die Toten Hosen – Angst

Das Wasser steht dir bis zum Hals
Du siehst wie Uhren sich rückwärts drehen
Es ist die Angst in dir, die dich so beherrscht
Dass du dich selber nicht mehr kennst

9. Vitas – Opera 2

Это судьба, а судьбу не могу
Я ни о чем просить.
Только я знаю, как после меня, –
Станут ветра голосить.

10. Polkadot Cadaver – Phantom Limb

We’ll drink to the dead as we gulp down the blood
We’ll chase it with whiskey and swallow the floods

I think I probably won’t manage to tag a full ten people because that’s a lot of people, but definitely @perfidiousalbion @his-name-was-writ-in-water @czarinamischa and anyone else who wants to do this (tag me if you do!)

I’ve seen a lot of curious people wanting to dive into classical music but don’t know where to start, so I have written out a list of pieces to listen to depending on mood. I’ve only put out a few, but please add more if you want to. hope this helps y’all out. 🙂

stereotypical delightful classical music:

if you need to chill:

if you need to sleep:

if you need to wake up:

if you are feeling very proud:

if you feel really excited:

if you are angry and you want to take a baseball bat and start hitting a bush:

if you want to cry for a really long time:

if you want to feel like you’re on an adventure:

if you want chills:

if you want to study:

if you really want to dance:

if you want to start bouncing in your chair:

if you’re about to pass out and you need energy:

if you want to hear suspense within music:

if you want a jazzy/classical feel:

if you want to feel emotional with no explanation:

if you want to sit back and have a nice cup of tea:

pieces that don’t really have a valid explanation:

pieces that just sound really cool:

if you feel like listening to concertos all day (I do not recommend doing that):

and if you really just hate classical music in general:

a lot of these pieces apply in multiple categories, but I sorted them by which I think they match the most. have fun exploring classical music!

also, thank you to viola-ology and iwillsavemyworld for adding on! if you would like to add on your own suggestions, please reblog and add on or message me so I can give you credit for the suggestion!

Could be a good addition to music magic! Check out this list.

The X-Files theme is so serene and calm in major key.

It could be a video game soundtrack

It sounds like the starting village music.
