doing something a bit different!

Stranger Things Characters Fav 50s/60s Artists + Songs!

(these are just headcanons)

I love 50s/60s music so, I’m combining it with my other interest, Stranger things! 😊 (there may be some byler coded songs too. heh. guilty.)

˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚

Jane “El” Hopper

(she’d absolutely be a lesley gore fan, try and convince me otherwise.)

Artists:

Lesley Gore + Nina Simone

(I also headcanon that she and Will listen to Etta James together. Nothing will convince me that wouldn’t be the most adorable thing ever. ☹️)

Songs:

(^The concept of El dreaming of going to the beach one day. And her listening to this song while fantasising being on a beach. Drop me baby just drop me.)

˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚

Mike Wheeler

(Mikes whole vibe is so The Beatles to me. Maybe it’s the hair. And tell me he's not Nancy Sinatra coded. He simply is. AND BOY DO I HAVE THE PERFECT NANCY SINATRA SONG FOR YOU MIKE QUEERLER.)

Artists:

Nancy Sinatra + The Beatles

Songs:

(^if you ask me, every song from Bubblegum Girl Volume 1 and Volume 2 are literally Mike Wheeler. But I mean this one was a bit too ironic not to put. “The Answer to Everything” is also very Mike to me.)

(^this song is so van scene coded. Im actually not even sure why.)

˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚

Will Byers

(Will byers is unfortunately the most tragic of love songs, with no happy ending. Duffer Brothers I won’t forgive the humiliation rituals for as long as I live.)

Artists:

Judy Garland + Vera Lynn

Songs:

(^honestly might’ve just been the line about the blue or yellow dress that made me think this was HIS song. but I mean even besides that, thinking he’s unlovable, Will you are no stranger to that unfortunately 😕)

˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚ ˚✧₊⁎⁺˳✧༚

Max Mayfield

(rip max you would’ve LOVED billie holiday!! I also headcanon that she and El would’ve been equally obsessed with nina simone. AND the idea of Lucas introducing her to Irma Thomas and Ella Fitzgerald. OH MY HEART CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE. 😭)

Artists:

Billie Holiday + Nina Simone

Songs:

Perfection!

I will always endorse Beatles Mike propaganda. He’s very ‘64 Beatles coded. I think he’d like a lot of the songs on A Hard Day’s Night and Beatles For Sale. The three Beatles songs I associate most with Mike are What You’re Doing, I’m A Loser, and And I Love Her. I imagine Karen might have been a bit Beatles-crazy in the 60s and Nancy and Mike would steal her records. Finn’s a George bias but I think Mike would be a John bias because he wants to be a leader.

Nancy Sinatra Mike is great too!

The Tammy song is just too perfect. I heard it for the first time in a movie recently and it could help so many Byler shippers heal from the homophobic insult that is Tammy. “He’s just my Tammy” but Tammy’s in love!

Said movie with the Tammy song is actually a movie I’d recommend to Byler shippers especially fans of churchgate, the S3 movie date scene, and Dead Poets Society. It’s called The Long Day Closes (1992). The main character has both Mike AND Will coded internalized homophobia, and you’ll exercise those subtext muscles to see the very intentional hints.

No notes on the other kids. I love Lucas introducing Max to his favorite music and Willel Sunday mornings with Etta James!!

[parisdollette]

I’m so glad there’s more Beatles Mike truthers!! I absolutely agree he’d be a John bias! I also would’ve loved to include another Beatles song had I not reached my audio limit on this post. I might even just make another post like this but solely for Mike! There’s so many of their songs that are so perfect for Mike. In fact I went back and forth on songs for him the most of everyone on the list. Also, Karen being obsessed with the Beatles in the 60s. I genuinely love that concept so much.

And I totally agree with you on Tammy!! Beyond the label of “Tammy”, he’s Mike Wheeler, his own person with his own feelings. He may be Tammy but as you put it, Tammy’s in love. The song encapsulates that vision perfectly I think!!

Oh and I’m absolutely watching that movie! ☺️ I loved reading your thoughts so much! Thank you!

Every time I see my old posts from before volume 2 I almost feel sick thinking of how happy I was. I was so sure I’d be jealous of my future self. Instead now I’m jealous of the me that didn’t have to watch that finale. She seriously had no clue how good she had it.

[parisdollette]

can’t wait to read these humiliation rituals!

A crew member's revelations (gone unnoticed)

So I was reading comments on ST reddit (yep, i'm masochistic)

And then I stumbled upon this one (all names are blurred, I'm not doxxing anyone)

On the one hand, this is just a rando on the Internet who says shit with no proof

On the other hand, it's a rather serious allegation (sus) and worth looking into

I skimmed through their post history. They're active on multiple subreddits where they mention work in the film industry

So I decided to dig deeper and two hours later I found their imdb page. They're legit!!! (they're actually credited in the show)

Let's look at everything they said about working on ST and the Duffers (brace yourself, it's A LOT):

This person seems incredibly bitter. However, all that info that's resurfacing these days ...

Take everything with a grain of salt.

And wait for the NDAs to expire ...

Finn wolfhard snl

Finn wolfhard doing a skit on snl that parodies heated rivalry with harry potter and instead of doing the obvious pairing of draco and harry, they do ron and harry the best friends. ALWAYS AT THE SCENE OF THE CRIME

[parisdollette]

"the writers viewed the Byler conversation as external "noise," not a storytelling mandate." is truly the cherry on top for me. Disgusting. So they never even had byler in the cards from the beginning? Oh that’s laughable. They wrote in a queer boy to fall in love with their self insert. They should genuinely be ashamed. They were miserable and took it out on the queer boy for his entire life. Queer people are a joke to these writers. Homophobic, racist and misogynistic writers, but what’s new? 🫩

[parisdollette]

I am a Will Byers stan before I’m a byler and I can no longer stand with the review bombing of episode 7. The episode has received the most 1-star ratings in Saudi Arabia with 68%. A notoriously homophobic country, by the way. I completely agree with other queer people in that there is real criticisms to be made about the episode but that is being drowned out by the homophobes and conservatives.

They are making jokes that Will is gay because of sexual abuse, and a lot of you guys are not only letting it slide but promoting this. If you are an ally or a queer person you will recognise how disgusting this is. Stop celebrating. In the end no side wins. Queer people are stuck with terrible representation and homophobic voices are being platformed.
