ok this is going to be coherent hopefully

This song -> https://youtu.be/OADfpiJ7jKU

Ahh! I don't know how to add music it's "Kill the Witch" by Dave Melodicka

It's a Halloween ish song original by this guy (he does mostly covers but has been doing some original stuff)

It has huge Odnlb ladybug vibes to it. It's not a perfect line up but some of the lines are😚🤌

Basically how I feel like it's gonna be if ladybug ever gets a hold of monarch (and then Lila if she really really finds out)

Shes gonna burn it all down haha

I put the whole lyrics down underthe cut with the lines bolded that I loved

Young little thing - She doesn't know about the mystery Spend all her life - Between madness and misery She's giving in - To little pleasures when they're looking away But people, they speak - When they see that your different Whispering rumors - About magic and witchery They need somebody - To sacrifice in the altar of fear {Pre Chorus} See the pyre standing tall in the night And the evil being cleansed... In fire

{Chorus} Oh ayayayayay Young rose is gonna die Nobody's gonna miss her Nobody's gonna cry Oh ayayayayay She's running out of lies She cannot run forever See the light leaving her eyes

{Verse 2} So you think you can kill the witch ? Set the fire and get away with it ? Do you think you can save your soul And hope she's not gonna make it burn Do you think she's gonna let you go After the things you've done ? Witches never die so go and try She'll feast with your flesh and your blood

{Pre Chorus} See her rising in the cold dead of night And the people staring up... In fright {Chorus} Oh ayayayayay Young rose is gonna die Nobody's gonna miss her Nobody's gonna cry Oh ayayayayay Death words by candlelight She won't be gone forever See the fire in her eyes

{Evil instrumental}

{Ending Chorus} Ayayayayay Young rose is gonna die Nobody's gonna miss her Nobody will survive Oh ayayayayay They're running out of time They cannot hide forever See them running for their lives Running for their lives

oooh you know the great thing about this song? it applies to odnlb ladybug but also lila! and you know i love me some hero-villain paralells that blur the lines between their characteristics 😈

"Spend all her life/ Between madness and misery/ She's giving in/ To little pleasures when they're looking away" <- YES! poor ladybug has been spiraling in such a dark place for so long that it's become a part of her. indulging in that is like her little pleasure hehe.

"She's running out of lies/ She cannot run forever/ See the light leaving her eyes" <- this is how she feels about lila/monarque! who is indeed running out of lies and is being cornered as secrets are slowly being peeled away, and as her power consumes her. the light is leaving lila's eyes because she's dying, but it's also leaving ladybug's eyes bc she's spiraling into darkness.

"Do you think you can save your soul/ And hope she's not gonna make it burn/ Do you think she's gonna let you go/ After the things you've done?/ Witches never die so go and try/ She'll feast with your flesh and your blood" <- this one's fun bc ladybug's supposed to be a hero and a pillar of good. in odnlb she's actually the anti-hero, out to do the most un-heroic thing which yeah is to defeat the villain but in a very villainous way herself.

"Nobody will survive/ Oh ayayayayay/ They're running out of time/ They cannot hide forever/ See them running for their lives/ Running for their lives" <- oh yeah ladybug has no intention of letting monarque survive lol. run for your life little butterfly! she's coming for you!!

she's gonna burn it all down yes 🔥❤️‍🔥 thank you for the song rec naomi!! it was very coherent and fitting >:3

Dave Melodicka - We Used To Live Here (ORIGINAL SONG - LYRIC VIDEO)

[londonhalcyon]

Song of the Week

Song: Kill the Witch

Artist: Dave Melodicka, Melodicka Bros

Playlist: Cassandra

undefined

Introducing Cassandra, one of my favorite OCs from an original fantasy world I’ve been building on and off for a few years. She’s an elemental witch with a fear of fire, for reasons that become quite obvious.

During a writing club meeting a while back, I was given a dialogue prompt (the first line of the snippet). The following scene is what resulted. Also present are rival witch Selena and werecat Hex.

“People trust me with their marriages. They shouldn’t.”

Selena smiled. At least, she appeared to smile. While her lips curled to reveal blindingly white teeth, her cheeks barely moved. Her eyes remained as hard as emeralds.

I hated her eyes. How they were near identical to mine—the same jeweled color, reflecting the same magic. But they were so cold and…not mine. A chill soaked to my bones every second they lingered on me, cold enough to make my hip ache. It wasn’t a cold borne of any spell, simply my own stupid terror. She used her power so differently; she wouldn’t hold back out of fear like I did. 

The witch leaned elegantly over the table to pour the tea. In the candlelight, her skin was paler than dragon ivory, a sharp contrast to the hair that cascaded over her shoulders, burning redder than any flame. If Hex hadn’t been in my lap, I would have leapt out of my chair with anxiety. I ran my fingers through his fur, trying to project calm. My cane was inches from my hand. I could grab it if I needed it.

“Clearly,” I said, realizing she had been waiting for a response. “Is this the same tea you used to poison the queen?”

Her unnatural smile widened. Without breaking eye contact, she took a long sip from her cup, disregarding that the leaves hadn’t steeped yet—or that the water was boiling. “You insult me,” she purred when she was finished. “Poison’s an unfair word, isn’t it? I only made her a little drowsy. You’re the one who nearly killed her, if I’m not mistaken.”

Hex stiffened beneath my hand. My fingers had clenched. “I was trying to undo what you did,” I spat. “Which I’m sure was all for the benefit of her marriage.”

She laughed. The candles flickered with the sound. Her energy, which before had been slinking around the cabin, sparked dangerously with each exhale. Nausea crawled into my throat. “Oh, you’re cute. I did exactly what the king paid me to do. Which is rare for me, I’ll admit.”

“Are you trying to start a war?”

Her lips finally closed around her teeth. “My dear Cassie,” she said, as if she was explaining something to a child, “I am trying to survive. The war’s been going on for over twelve hundred years now, and everyone’s cheering for the other side. What else am I supposed to do?”

“Uh, not contribute to the deaths of hundreds of people?” I suggested.

She laughed in a single sharp burst, and I flinched as it slapped my skin. Her voice had lost its musical quality. “What good will it do to protect people if they turn around and try to kill you afterwards? No offense, but I doubt those burn scars will look quite as fashionable on me as they do on you.”

Beneath my clothes, the ghost of heat prickled across the disfigured patches of skin. Hex butted his head against my hand when I struggled to take a breath. I tangled my fingers deeper into his fur, solely to stop myself from grabbing my cane and blasting a hole in the wall. Or her face.

“I did mean no offense,” Selena said. “If anything, you should be celebrating. You’re sitting here in a cozy little cabin for a spot of tea, not ashes on a pyre in some dreadful backwater village. It proves my point.”

“Which is?” I asked, with no desire to hear the answer. When Selena leaned forward, candlelight flickering in her hard eyes, I wanted to flee—from the cabin, from the country, from the continent. To anywhere out of reach of her sharp, nauseating chill.

“Cassie, you know better than anyone.” Breath brushing my cheek, she whispered, “The one who burns the witch is the one who ends up in the flames.”

Hex hissed a warning, but she had already pulled away. I bit my tongue, though stopped short of drawing blood. She didn’t need any more power over me than she had already.

There was a mad witch in front of me, and somehow, I had to convince her not to end the world.

Great.

I've been in a very "play the same songs on repeat all day" mood recently, I've just been obsessed with these. I think I've played Killbot! like 6 times in the last hour at least

[akasztofavirag-por]

I noticed that you mentioned the band Ghost in a recent post..I've recently started listening to them and really love them! I was wondering if you could recommend any bands that sound similar? No pressure if you don't feel like it, you just seem like you know a lot about music. I really like the singer's voice and how kind of like...melodic a lot of the songs are? I'm not sure if that makes sense. Either way I really enjoy your blog!

Oh man thank you so much!! So I don't know many bands that sound very similar but I can tell you what bands are on the same playlists of mine as Ghost, and you judge if you like them, okay? (I hope it's alright that some of these are female fronted.)

Dorothy (kinda similar classic rock influences)

Lord Of The Lost (similar singing style, a bit more electronic sound)

Halestorm (anthem-like rock songs with very addictive melody hooks)

Spiritual Beggars (more classic guitar sounds again)

Gary Moore (actual classic rock)

In This Moment (similar dark lyrics with religious topics but rarely as campy as Ghost. Also very catchy)

Plus I would recommend you check out the Melodicka Bros' channel on youtube, they have done vers good covers of many of my favorite artists' songs, including Ghost. Dave has a beautiful voice!

Thank you so much for the ask & your trust in my taste, I'm very honored, I hope I could help! ❤

Dave Melodicka - FIREWORKS (Original Song) #stopwar

[bending-sickle]

Melodicka Bros - Dave Melodicka - FIREWORKS (Original Song) #stopwar

Hello! This is "Firework", the first original song I ever release. I started writing it after watching some pictures of the Israel-Palestine bombings back in 2021. In the past days I felt the urgency of getting back to work on it. Even if it's not the most refined product now it's ready. It's my personal statement against war and is dedicated to all the victims of the Ukraine invasion.

 Thank you so very much for listening. Feel free to tell me what you think in the comments. If you want to use this song in your livestreams/videos/projects just ask me at dave.melodicka.contact@gmail.com or melodickabros.contact@gmail.com
