Jingyuan has always been made of love,
And love he did from the depths of the ocean to the farthest star in the sky
Love so deep, he drowned farther and farther, inking his blood into the dark waters and the skies

It was 7.30pm, on 6 July 1972...
Tumblr media
“Starman” is David Bowie’s Christmas carol. It offers a promise of deliverance, that the human race has been redeemed by greater powers, with a chorus built for a crowd to sing it... 'Starman' entry on Pushing Ahead of the Dame
Tumblr media
Handwritten Starman lyrics
“Starman” seems like a revision of “Space Oddity”—“Space Oddity” had placed a frail human figure against the unfathomable expanse of space and cast him loose to drift into the unknown. It was submission to the void, the human race reaching its limits. In “Starman” the unknown is domesticated: the alien comes to visit us, in our homes, whispering through our radios, speaking softly, promising release. The stoicism of “Planet earth is blue/and there’s nothing I can do” is replaced by “he’s told us not to blow it/’cos he knows it’s all worthwhile.” ... “Starman” is also a pop song about pop music…it’s how pop music can instantly create secret societies, break up the tedium of your life, liberate you from your parents. Starman' entry on Pushing Ahead of the Dame
Tumblr media
The essential moment comes when Bowie starts to sing the first chorus and Ronson tentatively approaches the mike. Bowie notices him and sweeps his arm over Ronson’s shoulder, pulls him to the mike. It’s a sweet moment of inclusion, the alien embracing the rocker, and, by proxy, all of the nation’s misfits. “Starman” left community in its wake; its promise came true. Starman' entry on Pushing Ahead of the Dame

"I immediately put on some of my older sister’s make-up. I loved how odd it made me look, and the fact that it upset people. You put on eyeliner and people started screaming at you. How strange, and how marvellous.” -Robert Smith, The Cure

”I was hooked. The Top Of The Pops performance changed lives. In 1972, I’d get girls on the bus saying to me, ‘Eh la, have you got lippy on?’ Until he turned up it was a nightmare. All my other mates at school would say, ‘Did you see that bloke on Top Of The Pops?’ He’s a right faggot, him!’ And I remember thinking, ‘You pillocks’, as they’d all be buying their Elton John albums, and Yessongs and all that crap. It made me feel cooler.” -Ian McCulloch, Echo and the Bunnymen
Tumblr media
"The way Bowie pointed that finger, smilingly draped an arm around Mick Ronson, and looked beyond the camera to engage the audience sitting at home, stickily hemmed in by disapproving members of their immediate family, seemed of a piece with the new Ziggy Stardust persona we’d been reading about. It felt like an arrival long delayed." David Hepworth, The Guardian

“I just couldn’t believe how striking he was. That ambiguous sexuality was so bold and futuristic that it made the traditional male/female role-play thing seem so out-dated. Bowie was the catalyst who’d brought a lot of us, the so-called Bromley Contingent, together. And out of that really small group of people a lot happened.” Siouxsie Sioux, Siouxsie and the Banshees

Starman page from Bowie: Stardust, Rayguns and Moonage Daydreams by Michael Allred
"I remember the first time Bowie appeared on TV ... Suddenly, here comes a guy dressed as a gay alien from outer space, singing gay alien songs from outer space .... I remember TOTP was family viewing, and I remember watching it with my Mum and Dad. "Oh, shouldn’t be allowed". And there was one bit in the chorus when Bowie puts his arm round Ronson’s neck and they sing together? My Dad was like "Poofter" ... My mother’s intense disapproval made me think ‘Well, there must be something GREAT going on here"...

(maybe people who celebrate song's birthdays are cringe but fuck that post and happy birthday to the broadcast of this song)

that Chesterton quote about how if people say endlessly contradicting things about something or someone you can be sure it’s great.

A bit of a rumble incoming but i was playing Deltarune again and i watched a few play throughs as well and i just love the moment when you look at the rooms in queens castle that resemble peoples browser search history and when you look in Asriels room Kris enters with closed eyes and does not see anything, and i see streamers be like ??? and go along their way but like, when I played i FELT that. I understood PERFECTLY why Kris did this. As someone who has an older brother, I would never in my entire life want to see my brothers search history, let alone in physical form. Like i do not know if this is what was intended there but I see it as the player goes to see whats there and Kris must open the door but they just REFUSE to see it and i understand

ouegh ive been summoned by @xxluckystrike...
"no cheating: you’re starring in a movie with the last person saved in your camera roll and the last song you listened to is the title. who/what is it?"
okay WELL. originally i thought the song (hi we're starting here) was smth in my yt history. then i remembered, NO, it was my SPOTIFY. imagine having to juggle music platforms lol
ANYWAYS the last song i listened to You'll Be Gone by YonKaGor (take the yt link bc i dont feel like linking spotify lol). now. the camera roll thing.
i... my camera roll is just CHOCK FULL of aoyagi toyas and akitoyas and occasionally some vbs or whatever screenshots. two screenshots happen to be at the front, but only one is the problematic one because do screenshots count???
so EITHER we have full vbs + len (in which case, maybe a musical academy nonsense? with some rivals to lovers... between who is up to you ;) ) or Just Toya (hmm... this took me a minute, but maybe like a platonic mermaid/human movie? more of a friendship movie than anything but like. a COOL friendship movie. one that doesn't try to shove friendship into your face and down your throat)
.......either way the movie title is INCREDIBLY misleading :rofl: but itll be super cool! at least in my opinion! :D
