love relistening to a fave song and then you realize something new about it that gives me even more appreciation >:O
#snow speaks#somehow this morning i went 'the hymn' by floya -> 'slow dancing forever' by i the mighty -> '111 winchester' by i the mighty#aughhhhh#i love slow dancing forever and 111 winchester - or i just like the storytelling i the mighty does with their songs its so fun#BUT 111 WINCHESTER.....#IT HAS EVERYTHIIIIING#it still makes me laugh because the song sits in the middle of what id argue is an album dedicated to love/relationships#(see: symphony of skin and 'where you let it go')#but 111 winchester is just a ghost story song and oF COURSE I LOVE IT#but its about the protagonist of the song eventually succumbing to possession by something living in the haunted house that he and his#friends decide to sneak into#and its soooo cool because the main vocal will switch off to the guy getting possessed#but theres a part where the backup vocals become the subconscious of the actual protag instead of the possessed#the lines 'i can hear you calling' repeating over and over again as they try to hold onto their consciousness getting drowned away by the#stronger main vocals of the possessed#so it goes 'i can hear you calling from the bedroom/i swear i'll come and get you' -> the repetition of 'i can hear you calling' that gets#drowned out#to finally -> 'i hear you calling from the bedroom/but i dont care to find you'#and then the house gets set on fire :)#anyways i love i the mighty songs theyre so fun 111 winchesters my fave next to symphony of skin and where you let it go#WAIT NO#ok idk#i also really love slow dancing forever because that just ends in tragedy#ohhh and the frame 1 because the unfulfilled promise is haunting 'i promised her she'd see the sun'#anyways i love you songs with stories you are so fun alksdjfahlskdjh#and tbh idek if its even intentional but gOd i love overthinking!
