#music hits just different man

[save-the-villainous-cat]

Okay, so sorry ahead in advance for the essay. I don't know if ur audience is really interested in this topic, or if you yourself are but i am tired and my filter is off. So I'm just gonna ramble Abt pas de deux.

Anyways, this is mainly coming off from the fact that I find classical music CRIMINALLY underrated. However, I'm so happy to see Pas Des Deux get appreciated the way it is. There's something ethereal about the song. I firmly believe that music isn't only to be used in entertainment but also to envoke feels that may be otherwise hard to express. Music feels like a universal language, whether or not you know how to play instruments or understand the lyrics. Imo, pas de deux is one song that HITS it on the nail.

There's something about the song which touches on intimate feelings, of yearning and wanting and comfort. The lower string instruments bringing a warmth, where as flutes and the harp bring in an innocence. The way Tchaikovsky layered the instruments to not only build upon eachother but let the story stay woven thru the transferring melodies. Admittedly, I'm very emotional myself, but over music? It's difficult.

Like i said before, music is there to envoke feelings to the audience, to bring joy or comfort. A lot of lyrical songs and pieces do it easily so, and they could be powerful. There's nothing more heartbreaking than to listen to a lover sing about her gray days without her spouse or of children singing about their innocent world. Even with some instrumental pieces, some specific feelings are easy to bring out, and that's honestly my favorite part about music.

What stood out to me for a song like pas Des Deux is the way it brings in so many feelings. Yes, there's a main story the ballet follows. However, even outside of the ballet plot, there's something so unique about the song, in the way that it feels as if it's touching innocence, yearning, the way someone might seek comfort of to their close ones. The listener just doesn't have to interpret it one way. Between the climax, to me, it sounds like separation of family, of heartbreak and loneliness and despair. And as soon as the music gets the angst with the brass instruments, the strings and the woodwinds lift it, like hope or comfort.

The ending is absolutely beautiful too. The song leaves such an otherworldly feeling. I've literally cried at how beautiful it is, it's just one of those things. No matter if you're in the most comfortable place in your life or struggling. The music just.../feels/ like your heart and your head. There's something about the song that just makes me feel human, makes me feel alive. Sometimes, it feels comforting as if it's calling a feeling deep beneath that i can't describe. Other times, it makes me realize how comfortably I live and even helps bring peace. Idk man, just one of my favorite songs.

Anyways, i don't know much about Tchaikovsky s history nor the song's. I just wanted to rambling about music whilst sleep deprived for anyone interested bc this is a topic that's been following me for weeks of not months, the beauty of music <3 and how i find pas des deux one of the BEST songs in the entire existence for myself. There's something about that song just feels insanely human, insanely close to our feelings.

Sorry for the repetition c

I pretty much grew up with classical music because a lot of famous composers are from Germany/Austria, so it was like part of Kindergarten and school to listen to them here and there and go to concerts where an orchestra played those. (One of my teachers fell asleep during one of those concerts and we’ve made fun of that for ages lmao.)

But I have to say, Russian composers hit different. (I think in general Russian media is insane and I personally blame that on Russian history…)

However, my favourite will always be Erik Satie’s Gymnopédie no. 1.

Even since Michael's heavenly ascend, not just the music industry but, quite frankly, the entertainment industry as a whole has been left with a massive void that I don't believe will be fulfilled in the near future or ever again. That man had a star power equivalent to three Galactuses at their most powerful. You will never witness someone like that ever again, not in this lifetime nor the next one. He was and still is one of a kind.

When songs in a major key have one measure that goes minor towards the end>>>>>

So. Brook died when he was 38 years iPod. And he was stuck in the Florian Triangle for 50 years.

He has been alone for longer than he was alive.

yo prince! thoughts on 18 and 23 for the videogame ask post??

18. A game location you really like

Oh OK I adore Altus Plateau in Elden Ring. It's my fav location in the game, the music is so relaxing and kinda somber and the look of the place is absolutely gorgeous. I'll never forget beating Makar and getting to the top of the hill (after getting jumpscared by the dragon LMAO) and seeing the Plateau for the first time just all gold and then the Erdtree towering over it all, has to be one of the most beautiful areas in gaming.

23. A “Wow” moment of awe

Another souls moment but god when I entered the Abyss Watchers arena for the first time. Seeing two of them fighting each other then the victor of the two just slowing turning to face me, and THEN him raising his sword and dagger towards me as a kind of challenge (which I later found out is like him honorably challenging me to a duel) when I tell you I lost my mind. Like it was so weird to see the boss essentially attacking each other was so bizarre and cool and different. AND THEN LIKE MID FIGHT THERE'S TWO OF THEM AFTER ME AND A THIRD ONE GETS UP AND STARTS FIGHTING ONE OF THEM??? Like bro I nearly dropped my controller. I'm sorry I am so normal about these guys I love them so much.

watched part of that tbi live recording on youtube and the drunk space pirate at the end it's like, the musical equivalent of that text post "hey what was that bit in the middle?"

[ghostabocky]

thinking about kh3/khux/khdr and wondering if there’s any iconography or characters who have the potential for the same sort of intrigue as lingering will/the mysterious figures/the kh2 secret ending
