tunes for your hungry ears
my current musical fixations
ok disclaimer…
the answer to the absolutely depthless question regarding one’s music taste always results in the overused declaration “i listen to everything”. i’m nowhere near innocent to this accusation as i spend the days listening to megan thee stallion and lana del rey in the same playlist. if you truly reside with the statement “i listen to everything”, welcome to my headphones for the day, let’s explore some of my most overplayed songs at the moment.
to establish my projected first impression when someone enters one of my spotify playlists, i concluded to sharing this song as my sacrificial offering to inaugurate one to entering into my current mood. i can use this description to narrate almost all faye webster songs but i’ll share with you that this particular song gives the synesthetic sensation of a cherry blossom tree blowing petals into one’s freshly dyson airwrapped hair. this song is what i would describe as an ambush of unwrinkled glossy melodies and vocals that i for one have been absolutely compulsively conducting myself into listening to every chance i get.
if whoever is reading has been in my car, who answers to the name; nelly, in the past couple months, you have been made aware of this song indefinitely. one can argue that love songs are the most exuberant genre and this record is no exception. the earliest version of myself whose ears had not contacted this track was missing out because now i am predicting this song to at least appear as a spotify wrapped runner-up.
now i can speak upon how dearly and agonizingly i miss studying abroad in korea but instead i will share the song that, through my ears, one can almost taste the stuffy yet familiar air you breath on the bus driving you across the han river. i am not quite sure what the addictive nature of this song is but whenever it plays, colors being formed in front of my vision get saturated until the next track plays.
not only did this album have me in a chokehold all of last year but maria zardoya’s voice will always hold the capability of making my metaphorical ship crash on a long sea voyage. in short… her voice is hypnotizing. i feel that the marias never really leaves my playlist no matter how many fresh playlists i concoct. this song just so happened to be the next in my rotation of the marias songs i had yet to form a bond with. its finally paranoia’s turn.
there’s something so satisfying about hearing a song upon first listen and immediately knowing it will be your subsequent preoccupation for the next epoch. i hope if you give this song a notice you will receive the same satisfaction. this is a track i would swing my arms to while strutting to a cafe to order an overpriced latte and hog the free wifi on an incandescent summer day. any song that reminds me of how good we have it during the summer can hop into my daily tunes immediately.
if there is one thing you must know about me, it’s that taylor swift will always wiggle her way into a conversation i’m prompting. this will be the only full album i will be referencing but i have not been able to stop listening to it in it’s entirety. listening to a taylor swift album in one sitting is an english major’s wet dream. not much else to say since everyone should be well aware of taylor swift’s influential exertion.
now this is the part where i shamelessly plug my spotify in hopes to find some of you reading as a new spotify friend. after all, i’ve had enough class to wait until you finished reading to request the simple glance over to that platform.
Gave you a follow! Loved this!!
so well put together u put me on
