  1. Longform on True Love Waits The Shadow of Love & Numbness. On Grief & The Void. - (How Radioheads ‘True Love Waits' From Their Album 'Moon Shaped Pool' Helped Me Sit Within It All) I always thought falling into the void was something I’d become accustomed to, something that I identified with since I was a small child. Now, I’m realising that the void is something that scares me. It’s emptiness is vast and numbing. It’s nothing. It’s true loneliness without the light of inspiration, without love,… 5 min read

  4. I Bet on Losing DogsMitski i can’t even write about this song seriously because the depth is the song itself… how was mitski writing likes like “I always want you when I'm finally fine How you'd be over me Looking in my eyes when I cum Someone to watch me die” mitski, when i catch u mitski …

  6. Somebody ElseThe 1975 i know that art is subjective but this is actually objectively one of the best songs EVER TO EXIST !!! i remember hearing it when it was first released. i was 16 years old, a few months away from my 17th birthday and i was immediately starstruck. i was already a 1975 fan but this immediately made me think this is going to be a classic in a few decades time. still stand by that… clearly. timeless ⭐️
  7. Love Will Tear Us ApartJoy Division again, probably one of my favourite songs of all time. this song held me through some of the hardest times of my life this year. ian was so young when he sadly decided to take his life shortly after writing this song in 1980. you can hear the pain in his vocals and lyrics in this one. thank you ian for such an incredible piece of art 🖤 “When routine bites hard and ambitions are low And resentment rides high, but emotions won't grow And we're changing our ways, taking different roads Then love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives But love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again You cry out in your sleep, all my failings exposed There's a taste in my mouth as desperation takes hold Just that something so good, just can't function no more Then love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Then love, love will tear it apart again Love, love will tear it apart again”
  8. No SurprisesRadiohead this was the first track (other than the infamous creep, of course) that made me notice radiohead as a young 13 year old girl. to this day at 27, it’s one of my favourite songs of all time & i will never get sick of it. no surprises reminds me of a haunting lullaby, one that doesn’t shy away from the darkness and the cruelty of the world, yet it is so achingly tender and beautiful. it’s always the oxymoronic songs that get me, and this is by far one of the best. honestly, if i could choose any song that represents what goes on in my mind & soul everyday, this would be one of them. radiohead have always been a bunch of god damn geniuses, haven’t they? “A heart that's full up like a landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal You look so tired, unhappy Bring down the government They don't, they don't speak for us I'll take a quiet life A handshake of carbon monoxide And no alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises Silent, silent This is my final fit My final bellyache with No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises, please Such a pretty house And such a pretty garden No alarms and no surprises (let me out of here) No alarms and no surprises (let me out of here) No alarms and no surprises, please (let me out of here)”
  9. All I NeedRadiohead what song better shows an amalgamation of metaphors for longing than this? radiohead really put their whole heart into in rainbows, especially all i need. i genuinely think this (along with no surprises, nude, motion picture soundtrack & fake plastic trees) is one of my favourite radiohead songs ever, maybe even one of my all time favourites. it just sounds so intensely primal in the best way possible to me. “i am a moth that just wants to share your light” how hauntingly beautiful

  2. Longform on Mariners Apartment Complex Lightning and the Mariner: Lana Del Rey, Carl Jung, and the Integration of Duality in “Mariners Apartment Complex” (and why this is my favourite song of all time.) There’s a reason I decided on a favourite song for the first time in my life last year. I was going through one of the hardest times of my life, and yet I found that I was beginning the process the infamous Swiss Psychiatrist Carl Jung named ‘Individuation’ and ‘Integration’. During that time, I found myself… 5 min read
  3. Longform on Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others - 2017 Master The Radical Neutrality of the Female Body: A Reading of The Smiths’ Closing Track “Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others” …and why the song is so much more than it seems. At first glance, The Smiths’ “Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others” (The Smiths’ closing track on their album The Queen Is Dead - released in 1986) appears to many to be a highly absurd and even ‘shallow’ track that barely suits the gloomy guitar tone of Marr’s gorgeous melody. However, beneath its seemingly simplistic… 6 min read
