You know, I'm not one who usually buys into numerology and stuff bc most of it is accidental but I gotta say, between the grapejuice numbers adding up and the number of "golden"s in the golden bridge... That's kind of too many 28s for someone who doesn't have any particular association with that number?
#twelve years later#please pick up the fucking phone#like every time i see a video on this stuff im like 'bro... that's a reach' but then i go counting myself and its not!#babycakes im politely asking: what the fuck

Interviewer: Harry, was Sweet Creature written about a specific person?
Harry: *deep breath* um...in my opinion, I think most songs are written for one listener, in my personal opinion, in the way that I think, you know, people write books, they probably write them for one reader. and uhm...yeah I think it's a really amazing way of being able to say something to someone that, maybe they'll never know it's about them, maybe there's one thing in there that only they will know is about them. I think it's...you know like I said it's so much easier to say something in a song than it is to say it to someone. and I think it's...it's really amazing to be able to communicate through that and be able to wrap up everything you want to say in three and a half minutes and say it in a song.
Interviewer: for lack of, not like, really wanting to analyze your art right, you kind of said without saying that this song is kind of about somebody right? You had a message that you were looking to convey. Who makes you feel at home?
Harry: I think that's fair...I think that's a fair um...acknowledgement yeah
Interviewer: So does this person know that the song is written about them?
Harry: .....um...I actually don't know. I think the thing that's important to remember is it's not always necessarily...um...the first thing that you might think of but I obviously...would never...tell someone that what they thought was wrong. I think the best thing about music is that everyone can take away different things from stuff--
Interviewer: different to every ear!
Harry:--and that's not wrong, there's not really a wrong answer. I feel like a lot of my favourite songs that mean something to me, I'd be disappointed if someone told me they were about something else, it might ruin the song for me, so, uhm yeah I think Sweet Creature is definitely about one person but uh...yeah I think it's important to remember that there's many different types of things that it could be about you know a person...yeah you know what I mean? That an answer?
#oh man#closet is the worst thing to ever exist but this answers are sorta funny#i shouldnt laugh but i did. a little. it's a bit like watching a car crash#like i hate that we got to this point but i have to admit it's entertaining in its absence of subtlety#please pick up the phone#sweet creature#babycakes#(my h tag)

Sometimes it'll hit me that like. Louis was Harry's compass because he needed something, someone to guide him home, to be home, as he was feeling aimless and homesick; but Harry was Louis' anchor, because he felt like he was drifting and weightless and that sounds like a good thing until it's not, until you start to grow up and you need to be able to be present and firmly in the moment and you need something, someone to keep you right where you need to be, to know you inside out and remind you of who you are. Harry needed someone to guide him home and Louis needed someone to anchor him to reality and they put that shit permanently on their skin and then they went and wrote entire songs about it for YEARS and I feel this is a lil bit insane actually
#twelve years later#H wasn't even TWENTY when they got the ship/compass combo im about to be sick#which on the one hand screams young love behaviour but homeboy himself told us they had Everything even if they didn't know it so...#hl#homeboy#babycakes#otp: compass and anchor

Hey vans! What is the two week rule exactly??
They’re never apart for more than two weeks 😭😭😭 the only exception was April-May of last year when they were apart for about a month…and that was when they wrote If I Could Fly and Home 💀💀💀
#2 weeks and ill be home#insane this post was all the way back in 2015. tbh my first thought was eloquently 'bitch'#respectfully. bitch.#someone should tell them both this. like. broski. tf is this#please pick up the fucking phone#i mean it seems like they DO. we just get the privilege of hearing the pining and the fighting in stereo#volevo che ero ancora la persona prima di questa sessione

“Most of the songs are quite autobiographical to be honest. Some are a little bit more subjective and open-ended. I feel like I have been making songs forever now, but when I set out to make this album I wanted to make it chronological, so the fans could go through my journey of the last two years with me”
— Louis x House of Solo
#kay wait a fucking#second#is WALLS in chronological order???#it makes sense but also it doesnt ?#in my brain? i dont even know why this is throwing me a curveball but good to know

I was reading a H/TS timeline because I wanted to remind myself of something (I was sure she met up with Ed before meeting H, but I was mistaken) and truly you could make a drinking game out of the number of times Louis is mentioned in these things. Like I'm not joking this was a genuine shipping thing, nothing to do with Larry, but Mr Tomlinson? He was always front and center at the scene of the crime. He was goading H into answering questions to the point where people who had NOTHING to do with the fandom are pointing this out!!! There was a whole section where Louis was basically mentioned more than Dr Swift! This is so insanely funny to me sorry fkfhdjdjj like why the fuck is he so involved if once the relationship got actually public he was like "🙃I'm happy they're very good friends 🙃"
#louis tomlinson haunting the haylor narrative is my favourite genre#homeboy#twelve years later#as a gift to mr tomlinson himself i might do a lil retrospective on h&t's songwriting correspondence#i heard his hq is on tumblr i want to see if he himself gets unnerved by the idea of baby H and TS being still paired tgt#im sorry im in my messy era#hl

About Home.. i became a fan a little while ago so i always wondered, how it was release the song? It was just put on itunes after Louis's tweet and nothing else? That audio is an official one? Because i bought the song, obviously, but the audio is just so low? And not that clear? So maybe i didn't buy the right one? Or it wasn't perfectly edited because there was never the intention on putting it in the album? Sorry for this weird ask, feel free to not answer :)
Home was released as part of the Perfect EP, released in the early hours of 21 October 2015 on iTunes. The EP contains:
“Perfect” (Stripped) – 3:51“Home” – 3:14“Perfect” (Matoma Remix) – 3:43“Drag Me Down” (featuring LunchMoney Lewis) (Big Payno x AFTERHRS Remix) – 3:08
“Drag Me Down” was the first single off MITAM. “Infinity” had been released but was not a single. “Perfect” was the second, and most recently released single.
Fans first noticed the Perfect EP on Spotify, I think, containing the songs listed above, with no way to purchase or listen to them. This was at midnight or 1 AM EST of that super shady concert cancellation (or around 7 AM GMT). Shortly after, Louis tweeted the home emoji, at 1:21 AM:
https://twitter.com/louis_tomlinson/status/656701867485859840?lang=en
Then the EP became available on iTunes.
Home is mixed with minimal production. It is possible that the engineering and remixing on it was incomplete, because it was not meant to be released. It was included in the Japanese deluxe version of MITAM. So many questions!
#sorry i was just thinking. how funny is it that Home is released on the Perfect EP#so its like. 1. the song they wrote tgt allegedly about h's relationship w/ ts. 2. motherfucking home.#3. ive got a river for a soul and baby youre a boat??? which is not written by either of them but it's still. i mean.#gotta hand it to louis he know how to make a gesture???

What’s the most romantic thing you’ve ever done for someone?
#i need to watch the last one because my darling dearest boy#did you try to act like you did this for that poor woman. did you. what in the revisionist history.#like im not laughing theres nothing to laugh about but it IS a little bit funny#nothing will dissuade me from thinking they brought E back bc it was easier to build the 'early days sweethearts got separated by life#and then found each other again'#that louis had got going on with his album#but the thing he and his team didn't consider is that these relationships WERE public#like bby this is almost worse than meeting the too young muse at 18 when you met your former gf at 19#there's literally photos and videos of you talking AT LENGHT about this and who you did it for#twelve years later

‘Even as young as you are..?’ 😍🙌
#the definition of haunting is this clip to my brain.#they could debunk most of larry (and id love to see them at least give it a good try! explain to me what the fuck was up#with the ship and compass!) but still this one would haunt me for the rest of my life#because they look at each other and then they look away SO SHY.#the fuck fo you have to be shy about if that's your mate what the fuck is going on#they DEFINITELY were not shy about eye contact back then so its something to do with the subject matter#and its ????? im still trying to wrap my head around it ?????#twelve years later

When Louis Tomlinson wrote "When you're lost I'll find a way I'll be your light" and when Harry Styles sang "When I ran out of road you bring me home" and when L got a compass pointing to home tattooed on his fucking arm and when H got a fucking ship because he felt lost and the single fucking fact that compasses are what brings sailors home.
That's it that's the reason why I scream
#twelve years later#like this is insane you get me? you understand?#i was just listening to home and i felt like truly SCREAMING . i dont even know if theres an emotion that could explain it to you.#larry stylinson#hl

When I say "Louis Tomlinson haunting the Haylor narrative is my favourite genre" I need people to know that I mean it. And I mean it when I say the dude HAUNTS the Haylor narrative, like he's the ghost of Christmas past; there are so many examples of it, but my absolute favourite is the compass, because it's just... So much.
So. H got the ship, right? At the peak of Haylor, when they were the IT couple everybody knew (which. Isn't it ironic that then Mr Styles spent the consequent... 5 years of songwriting? Or something?, talking about a relationship that was mostly secret? And everyone was like "this is about TS"? Anyway).
And the thing is. The thing is. The Haylor narrative had always been hilarious to me bc they truly did The Most. Honestly, no one did as much as those two pr teams combined did to make a relationship believable, and no one did such an AWFUL job (with the exception of hiddleswift, which was more tongue-in-cheek and self-aware anyway) in the history of pr relationships. Their story was so backwards and convoluted it doesn't even sound like they proofread the blurb of the narrative they were going to put out. I'm sure miss Tree is still having nightmares about it twelve years down the line and she wasn't even involved.
And I truly truthfully love how they both embraced it completely. Like, miss swift does her little thing where she'll write a song about someone, and sometimes she'll be very tongue-in-cheek about it, but nowhere she did it as much as she did with Harry, and H was Definitely up for the challenge, considering he named a whole ass track 'Trouble' and the nonsensical mentions of 'thirteen' just for the fun of it.
They had their fun building a narrative from scratch and I love that for them!
Because there is no fucking way IKYWT is for Harry. Like. It's 2024, I hope we all know that song was not for harry and I'm sure HE knew the song had nothing to do with him, but by god did they TRY to convince us of the contrary.
Did it make sense timeline-wise? Absolutely not, even if you try to grasp at straws, but oh, did they try.
Now, I'm sure we all remember the VMAs, highlight of my career, cameras panning to Harry absolutely unbothered, moisturised, clapping and chewing his gum as Miss Swift dedicated the award to the person who inspired the song, all while our homeboy was seething with passive-aggressiveness (dude didn't even clap! Their one-sided feud gives me life). Truly L was one with the larries in being a Haylor anti.
But we're not here to discuss that.
Because at least by then TS and H had broken up and it made some modicum of sense for her to be dedicating a song about a failed relationship to him. I mean, it made no sense to think she had written it with Harry in mind (Red was made while they maybe had seen each other once, not to mention it's famously about another relationship), much less to think she had made the video with him in mind (they were off gallivanting together! Why the fuck would she make a video like that about him). But that's the narrative that was circulating! And the funniest part is: the ship was used as evidence.

I'm sorry if I bring back some unwanted memories, but this is like. My absolute favourite thing. No headline has headlined the way this headline headlined. Notice that the ink was basically still fresh on the lovely boat (six fucking am in the morning, L hadn't even done his yet i think) and they were already putting out feelers so that H's tattoo would be linked to the video, which would link him to the song.
I'm not even saying he couldn't have been influenced by that tattoo (maybe he saw it and thought it was a cool idea), but you do see how "the removable tattoo a guy had for the music video about a sad song my gf wrote" is so far removed from "romantic tattoo idea to remember said gf" it would almost be insulting? They didn't care. They were doing The Absolute Most in pr terms, and it didn't even work!
Because, like a real presence haunting the narrative, Louis Tomlinson got the fucking compass that very same day. He truly was like "did you think this was about his fling with Blondie? Think again!" and that? That is so lovely to me. That is such a good way to haunt and counteract the narrative. Nothing will ever beat that and I'm grateful I got to witness it.
#louis tomlinson haunting the haylor narrative is my favourite genre#larry stylinson#hl#i don't even know which are the tags used??? also hoping im not clogging the wrong tag. if so im genuinely sorry#twelve years later

#twelve years later#and still i cant help but laugh. like. my brothers in christ you're not even CLOSE to being slick.#gotta love how louis interjects to explain (or rather AVOID EXPLAINING) h's tattoos#homeboy was ALWAYS at the scene of the crime. i want to know which one of their multiple pr people told him#'it's better to give ZERO explanation and pretend you're both ~quirky' as if people wouldn't question their lack of motivation MORE#like im sorry you dont get a big ass compass pointing home without it being meaningful. especially RIGHT AFTER YOUR BANDMATE GOT A SHIP#they could have saved it by having L talk about being homesick because he's on tour etc etc#and maybe h's ship inspired him to have something nautical. yknow. could have worked as some sort of explanation#instead we got: nothing! and im sure someone thought this would be LESS conspicuous!#no one made a mess like whoever was in charge of these boys' image did
