Glass Animals

[elisi]

I keep meaning to post and just... not.

So have some music. Stumbled across Glass Animals on youtube recently, and have listened to little else since. :)

This one might be my favourite, it's just... an unusual structure? Not sure how else to describe it.

Glass Animals - It’s All So Incredibly Loud (Official Video)

And then this song is probably the most perfect Doctor/Master creation I have ever heard. Vidders, I'm begging you, do your thing.

Glass Animals :: Wonderful Nothing [Lyric Video]

Watch on YouTube

Just look at the lyrics (and they just get better):

Wonderful nothing
You just want something nice
You just want substance
I just wanna cut out both your eyes
Wonderful nothing
You just want something kind
I want corruption
I think I'm the devil in disguise
Here's my state of mind
Give me destruction
Tell me I'm scrumptious
I'm a fucking delight

A Ten/Simm!Master vid plays in mind every time. <3

A few more songs under the cut...

I've been lagging in posts too. Things got busy about 2 years ago and now even though I have more time, I've found I haven't been posting much here. I hope to get back to doing so at least a few times a month though.

[elisi]

August/September are always the worst months (from a work pov), but this year my exhaustion has just... carried on. I keep thinking of things to post and just - not.

And I remember covid times and posting daily for literal years and it feels so long ago.

Good luck with your posting, I shall try to get a little more active also!

[yourlibrarian]

Yeah the tiredness is a frequent thing now. I am commenting somewhere every day, and skimming through if not reading. But I think it's not a coincidence that my most frequent posts are to common_nature or recthething.

I don't remember if I've posted about taking the youngest to uni, but with an 'empty nest' there is suddenly also a lot of housework/reorganising to do...

[yourlibrarian]

I could see that, yes.

[elisi]

All the things we've said 'Oh we will sort that some day...' - that day has arrived. /o\

[yourlibrarian]

Yes, we're starting to plan for retirement and part of that will be dealing with downsizing stuff. It will not be a quick process!

[elisi]

Ah we can't even claim that, we're late 40s! Just... empty nest.

[lokifan]

Ooh, thanks for the recs! Love these.

[elisi]

You're welcome! I don't follow music at all really, so I love randomly stumbling across something great. :D
