8. Yes, something not mentioned here
9. No, I do not currently play an instrument but I sing
10. No, I do not currently play an instrument and I do not sing.
End Options]
Please specify in the comments or tags!
I’m sorry there aren’t more options, I only had 10 spaces or I would’ve included more. I tried to go with the most common and obviously with groups!
What counts for singing is up to you. I think most people sing some amount, but you can decide if yours counts or not. The reason for this is because you can teach yourself an instrument, so not requiring lessons or anything for either instruments or singing.
If you want to learn an instrument, especially if you don’t currently play any, I would love to know if you shared!
Please reblog! I wanna know how many of us play instuments ourselves and what that distribution is.
If you don’t listen to the Mechanisms don’t respond to this poll! I’m sure your answer is very interesting, but it will skew the results!
#the mechanisms#poll#i included the answer options in brackets because my phones screenreader wont read them if i havent voted. ive heard other peoples do but i-#included it to be safe!#i have experience with multiple instruments!#chronilogically they are guitar. recorder (which i still count even though it was required in my school because i still have it and can-#still play it). alto saxophone. piano/keyboard. ukulele. violin. electric bass.#i have most experience with the saxophone and least with the bass!#i also sing. i did musical theatre ages 10-14 and a bit of non-musical theatre outside of that. so i have *some* amoung of training.-#plus chorus in middle school. but very little of it was one-on-one. plus i take t now and my voice dropped! so i dont havd any idea how my-#singing is now. not that i really knew before.#anyway im very curious! i always think its interesting when people are really into music but play no instruments (like my dad)#sorry to harmonica and accordion for not being able to fit you in the poll and also everything else because there are so many instruments!

I actually can't get over Hephaestus' little amv in episode 5. Like he is so funny for that.
You know your wife is going to meet her not-so-sneaky link in that tunnel so you design a whole animation to play around them like:
"Hey, sorry to interrupt but remember when my life sucked from the moment I was born and still continues to suck now? But good for you guys. Enjoy kissing to an obnoxiously loud song about being let down by a relationship. I hope you both drown❤️" like sorry H I wasn't aware of your pettiness level
#Hephaestus canonically invented reality tv on Olympus too like he's so messy#everyone pinpointed Hades as the sassy uncle#but what about him#'you know how she gets'#oh Hephaestus#where's your talking head?#he should've installed dramatic sound effects into that little harmonica#'can I help you?' *rupaul's dragrace music plays up*#the pjo video#percy jackson tv show#percy jackson and the olympians

I physically can’t get through the rest of the tour if Jake keeps audibly kissing the mic to say goodbye to everyone
#like a big squeaky wet mwuahhh#why would he do that#i keep seeing it and I can’t#also are we gonna talk about the moaning?#the fact that this man has stayed in silence and we used to go. nuts over hearing him mumble ‘both’ into Josh’s mic#and how he’s literally playing harmonica and going auhhh inbetween#like he is MOANING#mirador#jake kiszka#jake gvf#greta van fleet#gvf

Guys do you think the Once-ler can play other instruments besides the guitar?
Bc it seems for me that he tried a lot of different instruments but he could afford only guitar plus it's not that difficult to learn and I believe he truly loves its sound.
But I want to think that he plays something like a melodica too?? Because it's harmonica with keyboard, what can be better? It sounds suitable for him, just look at this.

He could play some folk songs with it or his own silly melodies, just like with guitar. But he also could play it when he feels like express his feelings through this. I can imagine how he just sits on his bed or chair to look in the window, thinking about everything and nothing at the same time, randomly pressing accords or playing arpeggio in some minor key. He makes the melodica sound heavy and a little wistful, playing some simple slow motif.

I know it's all VERY contrived but I guess it's just an interesting topic to think and come up with headcanons.
#onceler#becki chatters#i just wanna see how he plays on some keyboard instrument PLEASE#i just love different harmonicas i guess its obviously that i headcanon it to onceler#guys these thoughts were in my mind TOO LONG since the october i guess#lorax#the lorax#the onceler#lorax 2012#onceler fandom#lorax fandom

i don't know any feeling that's better than succesfully traumatizing your dnd players :)))
#i made them fight a crazy woman that was literally a fucking horror film creature#she had like two attacks by turn and everytime someone failed to attack her she'd ripost#although she didn't have a lot of pv but she's really fun to play only because she terrifies everyone#and then my players met her three children that attacked them out of fear#so they negociated with them so they could take the little sister with them for the main quest (she wasn't important but oh well)#and they gave them a magic harmonica in exchange and after this they literally threw a molotov at the two other kids#so i was angry#sooooo the little brother stole some weird potion from one of my players and drank it#before turning into a half-dragon and breathing fire right into them#and the big sis stayed in the fire broke the harmonica and “ate” the harmonica's magic and literally fused with a god#at this point i was so fucking happy bc i just got a lot of lore and showed my players how much they'll find out when they fuck around#no one died bc i'm a rlly rlly nice dm (i know it doesn't show but fr i'm too nice)#and i also have now two ocs i love with my whole heart :)))#dnd#ttrpg

speaking of bsol through speaking of xmas xtrav that like i'm so augh god hand over heart falling over (just like the bloodsong b/c it's the like conclusion of being Overwhelmed By Artistic Effect that then in the ideal version you may as well die) at the thought of the finale where you have the main plot conclude as that Story w/those Themes like ah but even then, the influence, the other the musicians now, that this whole time like yeah you have to do it even if you just keep building or die or were thwarted even prior to that b/c you didn't know you wouldn't be....but that then just like in the opening song Outlaw or sort of distillation of the theme abt being someone making art Last On Land or that at other points other characters have emerged as not really their characters not really a greek chorus but elements of the story helping to Tell It, here's Everyone again for the friendship song altogether & each with an instrument & like not even able to see it but pics & imagining & the enthusiasm & the Thematic Resonance like this is when you are pursuing these pursuits together like _o__ (splayed out facedown emoji) aaauuughhh ;;mm;; bsol finale with everyone showing up playing & singing & dancing the song celebratory finale it's all the Theme when the full cast of Characters had only ever all been together for the one standoff scene at the end & yet obviously We've known them all & everyone is outlaws which is a song like i'm already going sicko mode & this is just the intro, so yknow, The Conclusion, good lord find an iconis musical finale without that place for the celebratory outpouring of enthusiasm right amidst other feelings & situations but Good Lord Here's This in a story that'll always have been all about people's depths & heights & widths & breadths & variations & tumult & all the dimensions, people will have Brought It all over the place & it's like yes leap around together playing & singing this song together which isn't The Story but is such an extension of it b/c bsol has its show within the show quality still infused all in it & if this flurry of Actors Celebrating Outpouring We Put On This Show but still within the show you are seeing as an audience in this venue wouldn't have been part of the original plan with a whole [outside the show within the show] plotline like. embraces bsol holding it so hard my becherished
#bsol#& in true xmas nature yknow like yeah i think of the whole show like wwaaughh think of the baby please come home like Aauuuughhh#think of specific moments within & none of those make me weep but they do make me go omg & woww yayy & clap & cheer & caper & gambol#but what everything has been: all about its central theme & bsol/xmas playing w/& sending up Genre Conventions we all know & thus can be#enough on the same page about so as to then be on the same page abt what's Unexpectedly done w/them but it's not just about#like oh we do this to be Above it b/c it's also done abt genre convention stuff that's enjoyed & interesting to its creator here so#that also as ever the Heart of w/e the genre stuff being messed with is Earnestly Kept & that's what all this is used to express things#with in addition to being able to have fun & explore things that plausibly a completely straightforward recreation type homage couldn't#or couldn't do as well without sacrificing one or the other vs if you're already doing an open like remix playing with exploration; then...#the conclusion of the xmas show isn't yeah i love xmas isn't that cringefail of me. yeah these xmas special media we're working off of#isn't that all so silly & no matter how much i love it it's important to end up Above It. like nobody's here to be above shit good god#soooo much more you can do if you don't have to prioritize That central theme. [you & me; We're superior] undermines Anything Else#while never holding yourself as Apart & Better lets anything else grow & flourish & have the Capacity & Flexibility to be & do whatever#the villain as an emotional reflection of part of the hero / representing a Possible Version of them; not Who They Could Never Be#as Only a force to be overcome with your greater force; though naturally yes the villain creates conflicts & stakes & obstacles#& in these so very genrey xmas bsol situations i'm clapping cheering go also very fun & funny little villain who kills you Gooo#100% this bitch Oh No Not Miserthorpe Krampington Thornwassail Cocodrilo that's right you fucks ahahahaaa >:) die btw#thinking about specific parts of bsol like oh wow oh yay oh this fun turn into this bit oh what a scene what a song wahooo#then overall like lying back reaching up Bloodsong....#thinking of the finale friendship song actors as actors ish characters ish ft. instruments 😭😭😭😭😭😭 (one each)#this mf (gesturing to myself who'll inevitably fire up Outlaw.mp3 at any moment & go Augh the harmonica the harmonies the chorus The This)#also that obviously i get to have a delightful time going well so of course lo cocodrilo is gay; perhaps & trans; &....

In Olympian Falls AU, on Ford, Stan, and Angie's first quest together, they come across a group of monsters that they need to get rid of. But there's too many of them for a head-on attack, even if they have Angie use her archery skills.
So Stan and Ford come up with the idea to have Angie make a distraction, then while the monsters are distracted, they'll like, knock down a big heavy thing or something that will crush the monsters.
Angie points out she's best at a musical distraction, but she didn't bring her fiddle. And Stan just shrugs and says she should sing, then. It takes some cajoling and bribery, but eventually Angie agrees.
Angie starts singing her favorite song, "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and walks up to the monsters. She channels her sadness at being away from her home in Arkansas for so long, not being able to visit or risk danger to her family. And not only do the monsters start weeping at her performance, Stan and Ford get overwhelmed by sadness from it as well, and Angie has to glare at them before they remember what they're supposed to do.
After Stan and Ford dispose of the monsters, Ford comments that he knows now why Angie doesn't sing. It's too powerful for most applications.
Angie mumbles that that's not the reason, but thanks him anyways.
Stan is still speechless, as the haunting sound of Angie's voice plants the seed that will grow into his crush on her.
#Angie is used as a distraction or bait so many times on the quest#she eventually gives up on plans out of spite and just starts charging into battle#bc she'd rather be shooting arrows than playing a distressed damsel yet again#Stan thinks it's kinda funny. he and Ford are still in the ''teasing girls is fun'' stage of development lol#anyways after this incident Angie keeps a small instrument on her person at all times#even if it's just a harmonica or something#bc she's unnerved by how easily and powerfully her music magic went when she sang#(and also she HATES singing in front of people)#Olympian Falls AU#speecher speaks

"Kamen's a dog and Chungo is a pig playing the harmonica"
- the out of context conclusion of Kamen's relationship with the Hollow that my fiancé has come to
#scavengers reign#there IS context I promise#the pig playing a harmonica is reference to the dnd spell Awaken#and how being in contact with Kamen made the Hollow almost sentient but at its core was still an animal#and boy howdy it's hard to process a divorce with your little animal brain

what’s your beef with bob dylan ?
ohhh the dreaded question finally asked!
theres really nothin to it, i just dont like him. hes got some good songs i can give him that but hes just annoying to me! i think hes got an air of arrogance about him + all his fans do too and its really turned me off to him.
i also dont like that he was mean to my man phil ochs, and that every single folk singer from the 60s/70s is "living in bob dylans shadow" as so eloquently put by Spotify descriptions. i think thats stupid and a stupid way to put it even!
everyone has always acted like hes the best artist ever, and i truly truly have never and dont think i will ever understand it!
#his harmonica playing physically makes me angry like srsly it makes me red in the face#like how did u butcher that instrument#answered#anon#his voice also its whiney and grating on my ears#i can tell u the songs i do enjoy if ur curious! i havent listened to his entire discography of course but

#howling#he's actually teaching himself how to play banjo rn#and im honestly tempted to learn how to play the harmonica for real in retaliation

deeply invested in gene having a different musician poster whenever we see inside his bedroom. this is such a strange detail to keep changing but i kinda love how realistic it feels?? like yeah he gets into new music and buys himself new posters of his favorite artists that makes sense
#also his harmonica from that christmas episode where he got it as a stocking stuffer :)#he has a really impressive amount of musical instruments in his bedroom like whats all that for. what is with the MINI PIANO#and of course louise's guitar from western spaghetti and meatballs#disappointed that they left out the ukulele he randomly had and knew how to play in that one episode#txt#bob's burgers
