#It's not fair by the amazing devil

[neverquiteeden]

You ever listening to a nice, sweet song that you usually like and then the Aro Grief hits you like a fucking train

[hdfjsjkj]

i was talking with a friend a couple days ago about love songs and i can't stop thinking about this

[dustykneed]

oh.....old married spones...... the old men yaoi ever

[nerdyqueerr]

The Amazing Devil truly knocked it out of the park with Fair in terms of love songs i mean its got everything. Domesticity, deep adoration, confessions of love when youre sure no one else can hear, a that's what she said joke, yogurt, genuinely dont think there's a more romantic song on the face of the earth

[patroclusdefencesquad]

not to go on about not yet/love run again but can you believe the lyrics "let foul men band and heed your hum for that ancient hymm you heard me strumming? is nought but fumble-falls and guns and tumbleweeds, love run. it's nought that rum won't solve though some would harm you none - not one - no none would raise to you a hand or thumb, not while by you i stand and hum" and "everyone knows sex is better when you're unemployed" ARE THE SAME FUCKING SONG

What always gets me about Fair by The amazing devil is how it portrays love.

I've never really understood songs where love is said to be this life changing, gigantic feeling that can make planets explode. Sure, love is great and it sometimes feels like too much, but for me, love is in the little things.

Looking at the other and liking their hair after they woke up, loving that particular tone their voice can take when they think no one can hear, folding laundry because you know they will be grateful when they see it and so many more.

Fair has it all, it's simple, it's domestic and feels so close to my heart, like someone actually watched my brain during my daily life with my lover and put everything I felt into a song.

It's poetic, it's packed with snippets of life and more than anything, it's silly !

Because that's what love is after all, knowing someone so much that even the most silly things they do is part of what you would include if you had to describe what love felt like.

Not enough love songs express how dumb love can feel like sometimes and that's why this song is for me the best love song ever written, it shows that you don't need to go out of your way to overcomplicate this feeling, you just have to look right in front of you

The softness in Joey's voice during Fair. That's it. That's the post.

"It's not fair how much I love you."

"It's not fair 'cause you make me ache, you bastard."

I’ve been listening to amazing devil for years now and even though I heard the songs hundreds of times, I still find something new in them.

In That unwanted animal I just noticed that after the line: “well, can’t you hear the scratching” there is a tiny scratching noise.

Or in Fair, which seems like it is sang fully by Joey, there is Madeleine whispering the line: “Where have you been” before “she’ll whisper” faintly with Joey. What a ridiculous attention to details!

Like who made these people that they decided to make songs this layered! 🥰

“You’re not flawed, darling, you’re just a little under-rehearsed.”

is a Top Ten Most Neurodivergent Lyric, for me.

[finleycannotdraw]

realized I entirely forgot to post this one!!

it took a lot longer than I thought it would (mostly because I took a couple-month-long break from working on it) but I finished it up last week! It abstractly represents most of the concepts, feelings, or imagery in the horror and the wild album. I’d be happy to describe my choices if anyone’s interested!

I can't be expected to be normal after hearing the words:

" 'I've seen enough,' he says, 'I know exactly what I want

And it's this life that we've created

Inundated with the fated thought of you

And if you asked me to, if you asked me, I would lose it all

Like petals in a storm

'Cause, darling, I was born to press my head between your shoulder blades, at night when light is fading

Just to let you know, I'm old, waylaid and feels like I am wading

Into carpet burns and carousels

Christ, you'll be the death of me' "

Like??? How am I supposed to exist after this ripped open my ribs and played them like a xylophone

[merriadoc-brandyfuck]

The Amazing Devil decided to create a song so heartbreakingly romantic, displaying a type relationship rarely portrayed and they decided to add a goddam “that’s what she said” joke

[dustykneed]

"I love you so much I would hold you in my heart for ever and ever."

"I believe I will always learn to love you."

[amefuyuu]

I am being so so real and so serious but if the amazing devil ever have a live performance or even possibly tour, I don’t CARE I will fly to England or anywhere else I must just to hear their music live

[radioactive-cloud]

time isn't real because wdym the horror and the wild the album came out four years ago??
