You used to be fearful that you'd make mistakes, but
your meekness and sweetness have faded away.
And under it all now your blood starts to boil;
You'll make them all pay for your trouble and toil!
Your boyfriend was cheating and left you distraught.
But Meenah was meaner oh who would've thought
that her actions intended to help you along;
and you must know somehow that she wasn't wrong.
The future is coming; they'll just have to wait,
but you are determined they'll all meet their fate. - CHORUSx2 - Why do you feel that we're always against
something that detriments good consequence?
Why do you try to advocate strife;
living an alternate life? - The Handmaiden comes as a beacon of doom;
she reshapes the past as you watch from your room,
and now looking back you can see what she's done.
The battle is over but who really won?
You're being controlled by a glimmering voice;
there's nothing to do 'cause theres really no choice;
You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't.
You want to rebel but you know that you wont
be yourself if you do, how could you go on?
You're trying to help but what's right is also what's wrong
but you have to believe
that you are a person the world really needs. - CHORUSx2 + It's all cause your friends had just spat in your face. + You used to be fearful that you'd make mistakes, but + your meekness and sweetness have faded away. + And under it all now your blood starts to boil; + You'll make them all pay for your trouble and toil! + Your boyfriend was cheating and left you distraught. + But Meenah was meaner oh who would've thought + that her actions intended to help you along; + and you must know somehow that she wasn't wrong. + The future is coming; they'll just have to wait, + but you are determined they'll all meet their fate. + + Why do you feel that we're always against + something that detriments good consequence? + Why do you try to advocate strife; + living an alternate life? + Why do you feel that we're always against + something that detriments good consequence? + Why do you try to advocate strife; + living an alternate life? + + The Handmaiden comes as a beacon of doom; + she reshapes the past as you watch from your room, + and now looking back you can see what she's done. + The battle is over but who really won? + You're being controlled by a glimmering voice; + there's nothing to do 'cause theres really no choice; + You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. + You want to rebel but you know that you wont + be yourself if you do, how could you go on? + You're trying to help but what's right is also what's wrong + but you have to believe + that you are a person the world really needs. + + Why do you feel that we're always against + something that detriments good consequence? + Why do you try to advocate strife; + living an alternate life? + Why do you feel that we're always against + something that detriments good consequence? + Why do you try to advocate strife; + living an alternate life? Commentary: |- NEON SYSTEM 95: This work was originally intended as a simple cover for a competition on battleofthebits.org. To make it more unique, I took some inspiration from a song by maxvdubs and wrote some original lyrics; originally they were written about the plot of Dark Souls and the frustrating sense of hopelessness within. When considering what sort of song to make for this album, I realised how well the lyrics seemed to resonate with the story of Damara Megido, and adapted them accordingly. I also recently created an introductory segment (based on the pre-chorus and chorus of the song) intended to depict a sort of inner turmoil as one enters a dark period of their life and is confronted with various emotions including despair, horror, and hatred. - The name of the song refers to the concept of rpedetermination and fate. Damara's wiki page notes that she holds "much fatalism and frustration" within herself; considering that I had named the set of Souls-themed lyrics "Frustration," it felt somewhat fitting that "Fatalism" be its counterpart. Note that although the lyrics are mostly directed towards Damara, the second and third stanzas of the second verse refer to the Handmaiden and her service to Lord English. (Many thanks to my friend Chris for helping me better understand the plot details.) + The name of the song refers to the concept ofpredetermination and fate.

(Many thanks to my friend Chris for helping me better understand the plot details.) Squid: Drawing this piece and listening to Neon Zenith's song really made me look at Damara differently. I wanted to highlight the inner turmoil that people tend to look over, adding the Handmaiden to show those feelings that she hides. Damara is an incredibly interesting character, and I was just telling someone that I don't draw enough Megidos. --- @@ -217,13 +254,38 @@ Cover Artists: Art Tags: - Porrim Lyrics: |- - Beats blastin in the club,

Commentary: |- thesketchqueen: This song has gone through three lyrical overhauls (the third was becuase the song I created got too personal), two instrumental overhauls, and a shift from "real" instruments to virtual instruments. It's a mess. I wanted to focus on something of the dynamic between Kurloz and Meulin, especially all the gross mind-control stuff. I wanted to give lots of double meanings to the text, too, because puppeteer, nothing means what you think it means, la-di-da. So. Puppeteer.

Commentary: |- Blackhole: This one was based on a somewhat crackpot idea of mine that had been floating around in my head for a while. Uptown Funk is undoubtedly one of the best records of this decade so far, and, what with the concept of the Homestuck song parody having a fairly rich canon at this point, I thought it was a shame that it had yet to get the same treatment. I thought a fairly tongue-in-cheek "East Beforan Funk" re-arrangement and re-lyricised cover of the track would be a fun thing to slot in at the end of the album. Several times I thought that I might not finish it in order to make the cut, especially seeing as arranging the entire track with new instrumentation in FL was incredibly painstaking, but I got there in the end! diff --git a/album/let-me-dance-let-me-glisten-single.yaml b/album/let-me-dance-let-me-glisten-single.yaml new file mode 100644 index 00000000..94e76733 --- /dev/null +++ b/album/let-me-dance-let-me-glisten-single.yaml @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +Album: Let Me Dance, Let Me Glisten - Single +Directory: let-me-dance-let-me-glisten-single +Artists: +- Flutterwhat +Date: 2015 +Cover Artists: +- Snerkflerks +Cover Art File Extension: png +Color: '#008f48' +Groups: +- Fandom +Art Tags: +- Porrim +--- +Track: Let Me Dance, Let Me Glisten +Directory: let-me-dance-let-me-glisten-single +Always Reference By Directory: true +Duration: 3:51 +--- +Track: Let Me Dance, Let Me Glisten (Insturmental) +Duration: 3:51 +Referenced Tracks: +- track:let-me-dance-let-me-glisten \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/album/more-homestuck-fandom.yaml b/album/more-homestuck-fandom.yaml index 7be3bda2..189c09d8 100644 --- a/album/more-homestuck-fandom.yaml +++ b/album/more-homestuck-fandom.yaml @@ -157,6 +157,8 @@ Directory: candles-and-potency Artists: - Solatrus Duration: 5:23 +URLs: +- https://hsmusic.wiki/media/misc/archive/candles-and-potency.mp3 Referenced Tracks: - Candles and Clockwork --- -- cgit 1.3.0-6-gf8a5
