07.24.17 | okok i think i might make this a series depending on how far my volition reaches. now we're onto happiness, suggest a song that makes you happy and i'll bastardise it with a quasi-poetic description. hope you're all alright or whatever. |
Conmaniac
07.24.17 | just jammed 9 in full and it's so sweet. cool list, love me some happy songs.
Animals - Baths is such a great lil feel good song. the samples of the kids always makes me smile |
ZombieToyDuck
07.24.17 | Love nausea so much.
How about I'm Ready-Jack's Mannequin |
verdant
07.24.17 | done boyos, thanks a lot |
ZombieToyDuck
07.24.17 | hehe nice rec cone ;) |
verdant
07.24.17 | agreed i haven't listened to baths in a long time but i love love love this song |
Conmaniac
07.24.17 | Baths is sooooo good tho, def my fav electronic artist |
protokute
07.24.17 | hummmmmm nice list, interesting stuff here. |
verdant
07.24.17 | thank you, anything you want on the list? |
clavier
07.24.17 | Check out Hey Sholay, all of their songs are filled with indomitable spirit |
Papa Universe
07.24.17 | Only one song? |
verdant
07.24.17 | thanks claire!
and i mean i'm only gonna put one song on the list per person but feel free to recc me as many tracks as you want :~) i'm feeling pretty blah at the moment, so either would be appreciated. |
Papa Universe
07.24.17 | Well that's a though nut to crack, but alright.
The Boo Radleys - Wake Up Boo!
Possibly the radest and most positive song I've heard in my life. While it might not be one that resonates with me on a joyous level in any personal regard, it is still possibly the finest example of pure carefree bliss of life, welcoming each day with the sunniest and most positive attitude there could possibly be. So be it this, the definition of happiness. |
Papa Universe
07.24.17 | Also, if you seek a refuge in a state of rather bliss than happiness per se, you might consider experiencing Kamasi's Washington arguably finest display of mind-bending finesse to date in form of the song Truth. |
verdant
07.24.17 | ooooh yes i love kamasi i will add Truth :~) thank you so much |
Papa Universe
07.24.17 | ...oh... |
verdant
07.24.17 | aw ok ok ok i'm sorry if you really want the other one i'll chuck both up |
verdant
07.24.17 | but now i'm re-hooked on Truth so just gimme a sec hahah |
Papa Universe
07.24.17 | Do as you please, I'm just glad both have been given their fair share of attention... |
Papa Universe
07.24.17 | And also, please do turn this into series. It seems as the time goes, each Sputnik turns up a new series idea that they then uphold and which in turn defines them and challenge their musical and/or rhethorical knowledge. Gradually, everyone has their own unique thing that they work procedurally. This might be yours. The thread of moods and feelings each defined by a representative musical accompaniment that pulses through these certain emotions like electricity. You can make it worth it, mate. |
clavier
07.24.17 | ^ that's an excellent analysis. |
verdant
07.24.17 | i think you hit the nail on the head brother, i am infinitely fascinated by how music can enhance and/or manipulate extraneous atmospheres and emotional responses. as an aside, too, it's an opportunity to create some fuckennnsiiicccck playlists. i think i will make this a thing.
i'll add both of your suggestions in the morning, along with anyone else who decides to comment. |

Papa Universe
07.26.17 | Is the next instalment going to be something banal like 'sadness', or are you going to go more obscure with something like 'hunger' or 'unfulfilled sneeze'? |
verdant
07.26.17 | i already did sadness man, that's what the tearjerkers list was. i'm thinking Fear for the next one |
verdant
07.26.17 | unfulfilled sneeze is phenomenal though |
Papa Universe
07.26.17 | Well, here's more:
Wounded pinky toe
Lukewarm meal
Underwhelming intercourse
Shenanigans rooting in misunderstanding
Sudden awakening by invasive forces amidst entering the first stage of R.E.M.
Inability to find a proper conversation-starter
Process of ordering a clown for a funeral held in a mosque
Sleepiness |
BlushfulHippocrene
