this song has been living rent free in my head

it really resonates with me as an older sister who had to mature much faster due to family issues

[iamtheaudacity]

someone should draw Trudy Trout to labour the cacophony by Pairs Pamala

just hear me out I have so many thoughts on her and some pretty cool reasons for it to be the cacophony not the original

A month since Paris Paloma's 'Labour: The Cacophony' was out ♀️✊🎶! Here's the clip I recorded for this version, and I'm so honoured and thrilled to have been able to participate and actually feature in this, alongside many other amazing and diverse women and afab people 🤩☺️💜✊♀️! This beautiful song has became the (unfortunately extremely relatable) feminist anthem of feminine rage for many, and when I heard about the idea behind Cacophony, I instantly decided to participate in 14th Century reenactment because I feel like Herstory resonates so much with this song, expressing millennia's worth of patriarchal oppression and female rage at all the injustice. Women were *never* OK with it, no matter the times ♀️⚜️. . You can watch and listen to the full video here , and you can find me mainly at 2:47-2:54 and then briefly at 3:31-32 😃😊

Find this cover on TikTok here as well!

So, I drew this while listening to Paris Paloma's album and I thought I would share.

It's beautiful music.

[organised-disaster]

This is what I look when I listen to music and imagine the most impossible-to-create, highest budget, most gut-wrenching Snowbird animations:

have y’all listened to labour, the cacophony version though, yet, IT DEVOURS SO HARD

[kyeomunism]

obsessed with paris paloma's entire discography, but one that stood out to me was "last woman on earth" from the cacophony album.

I've heard so many takes on the 'man or bear' discourse, and this piece of art is my favorite response. it speaks of a woman whose dying wish is to finally be respected.

I've heard of so many cases where men have violated even the deceased. this song feels like an outcry from the daughters of those victims.

she says she'd rather be with the bears, be burned, or be scattered in the oceans—anything rather than be buried in a grave where men can still find her. she'll get tattoos so her body will be considered 'ruined,' because only then will they leave her alone.

she says if you love her, wait for her body to turn blue and decay, so she'll finally be undesirable again. so that even in death, her body is still hers.

this is rage. this is girlhood. give my girl paris paloma the audience she deserves.

[emotionallydevastatedandverygay]

oh so that's what's gonna give me the strength to survive the rest of the semester

[froginthestars]

so happy I get to see Paris Paloma live next week!!

[stillwithmeisonlyyou]

Gosh holy fucking shit

I'm listening to cacophony by paris paloma rn (ik a bit late) but like

Last women on earth? I want to cry. I can't find the words to describe how wonderful this song is. There really is no one like paris paloma when it comes to describing womenhood

Like the men who get mad that we choose the bear over them should listen to this song bar for bar

My fav lyrics: (honestly all of it but like for choosing's sake)

"For the first time since I drew breath I'm undesirable"

And this is all of the lyrics for context:

Cremate me, deliver me to safety

So that when it's spent, maybe it will be my own

Scatter ashes, leave no marker where you plant it

So the hoards will be disbanded as they search on a treasure map for my headstone

Leave me to the beasts and bears, I'd rather that the feast was theirs

They can't reserve neighboring plots or request to be buried on top

Leave me for a day or two to make sure that I turn blue

For the first time since I drew breath, I'm undesirable again

I'm undesirable again

I'll tattoo it, just so they think it's ruined

And if they think it's ruined, it's easier to save

But please hurry if you really love me

You'll dispose of me unceremoniously in the waves

Leave me to the trees and air, I'd rather that the feast was theirs

They can't reserve neighboring plots or buy cuttings of my priceless locks

Leave me for two days or three, 'til my fingertips turn green

For the first time since I drew breath, I'm undesirable again

I'm undesirable again

They will come in such dismay

That they never did discover where I lay

And I will burn my flesh and form

Screaming the words

It will never be yours

I'll take the flame over desecration

Promise you'll make all these arrangements

Don't you dare think it's overkill

I wouldn't wish the washing on anybody

So if for that reason only

Swear to me you will

Leave me to the beasts and bears, I'd rather that the feast was theirs

They can't reserve neighboring plots or request to be buried on top

Leave me for a day or two to make sure that I turn blue

For the first time since I drew breath, I'm undesirable again

[old-habits-die-screaming]

paris paloma should be the next big thing

those vocals??? the LYRICS??? im just mesmerised by everything that woman does

[daydreamdoodles]

I'll probably do LABOUR - the cacophony for my women's history song analysis assignment.

But I want to special shout out Last Woman on Earth which is probably a fame vent and also about the violence fem aligned people and women experience, especially around the ownership and expression of their own bodies
