when you listen carefully to the bass lines, your whole world changes
Freddie, an arts and graphic major, would be appalled at this AI crap. I find it offensive to his legacy that Brian and Roger didn’t fight this more. So disappointed 😞
Agree, he was also a huge perfectionist, he wouldn't let himself and his bandmates look like a nonsensical puddle of food because the AI can't automatically generate their damn faces, he'd have hired a painter at least to fix it!!! Yet I'm seeing so many people voing with the "don't claim what Freddie would've tought" using the excuse that he would've tried generative AI 💀 bunch of bullshit
what can you even write about them when this photo perfectly incapsulates everything you'd ever want to say.
Tried watching Daydream Believers: The Monkee's story (2000) and immediately had to pause because of fake davy's fuck ass bob
Really think John Deacon was onto something when he started aggressively telling me to follow my dreams in song form
eveeyones got it wrong your mid 20s arent for going to the club or partying or picking up new crafts. your 20s are for discovering how much more autistic you are than you thought you were in high school
I’ll never get over that one interview of Freddie in 1984 when he’s talking about how Russia considered Queen too outrageous and the interviewer was like “but Elton wasn’t???” and Freddie went “no he’s alright, he’s kind of middle of the road” when this was Queen in the 80’s and this was Elton John
there really is nothing that can recreate the experience of listening to a song for the first time again, but if you want to get close. listen to it in a better quality. listen to it on cd. listen to it on vinyl. listen to it on different speakers. listen to it on better speakers. listen to it on worse speakers. listen to the remaster. listen to the original master. go for a walk at a place and time that matches its vibes and listen to it then. a good song is full of layers that you can tease apart and find more magic inside, even when you thought you found it all.
i should get paid to think about old musicians its really what im best at

someone: says absolutely anything brian:
'Pete's theme' from Quadrophenia (1973) by The Who (X)
One of the primary themes/leitmotifs of the album, 'Pete's theme' (or the 'love-theme') can be heard throughout the album in various forms:
-- and finally it culminates in the phenomenal ending track 'Love Reign O'er Me':
The very moment that made me decide I loved this man. Incredibly underrated moment in my honest opinion. I could listen to this all day.

Chappell Roan not playing about her boundaries and personal safety and putting her foot down and yelling "shut the fuck up" at rude paparazzi during the VMAs red carpet is healing something in me truly. That is a lesbian woman refusing to act all grateful and bashful at being allowed space, she is owning the space for which she has worked over a decade and assertively setting her boundaries and giving zero fucks about whose ego she bruises on the way because only people who take advantage of you take offense when you set boundaries and I am enjoying every second of it
Sorry for reblogging your posts about doing evil things to a fictional character and making them about people who are in the Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame instead
joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat son or jesus christ superstar daughter
would you wear matching nail polish with me like brian and freddie 😔
what's the point of life if you're not weird about your rockstars
These rockstars have the nerv to make seven minute songs🙄 and they're GOOD so you HAVE to listen to them or else Brian May will have to kick down your door
Hey, whoever made the video for The Night Comes Down…stop with the AI. No one likes it. It’s theft and it’s terrible for the environment. FANS DO NOT WANT THAT. READ THAT AGAIN. It is THEFT. I know y’all worked hard to make this album great, don’t ruin it right now
i wonder if beatlemania people talked abt the beatles the same way people nowadays do. like was there a 15 year old girl in her bedroom in 1964 staring at a poster of paul mccartney saying “hes so cute i need to put him in a blender on high speed” while her friend nods excitedly
what is it they put in the hardware store to make it smell so good
it bothers me that you often don't really hear about people having a "favorite album" the way they might have a favorite movie or favorite video game
I'm done
