okay so something i really want to do this summer is put together a compilation of wlw folk songs (i’ll record them and post them on here individually and maybe put a playlist up somewhere)

i have a few ideas (basically all the ones i’ve sung so far can be adapted or they have female pronouns bc they were always sung by men) but if you have any favourites you’d like me to do let me know

Hey I saw you went to go see Bakkhai (omg was it good?!?!!) and was wondering whether you waited Stage Door afterwards or whether you're aware of any policy/advice about doing that?? (I'm so excited about seeing it next week!!)

Hello there! I’m gonna do a longer review at some point, but short version is: I have mixed feelings about the play itself but the acting is fucking INCREDIBLE, some of the best I’ve ever seen. I’d go see it again in a heartbeat just to watch Ben Whishaw and Bertie Carvel stare each other down.Re: stage door – So this was my first time at the Almeida and I had no idea myself what I was doing, but I’m pretty certain there’s no actual stage door–- the actors just comes out of the main theatre doors along with the audience.  When I went I didn’t see anything resembling a stage door queue. There were a ton of people just chilling in the lobby/in the bar area near the entrance, so I decided to buy myself a drink  and hang out in the crowd outside. Not long after that (maybe fifteen minutes), Bertie Carvel came out with a few friends and was just sort of standing around.  I went up to him and he very cheerfully signed my ticket for me.  I didn’t wait around for Ben, but I know that fans at other performances have been able to meet him and take photos. So basically, my advice from my limited experience is to get a drink and keep your eye out for the actors. :)  (If any seasoned Almeida-goers have better advice, please feel free to respond.)  Hope you enjoy the show!!

Put your music on shuffle, write the first 10 songs that come on and your favourite lyrics from them. Don’t forget to tag people at the end!

I was tagged by levioooooosa​ (thank you ;))

(I cheated a bit here because I don’t really listen to music on my itunes anymore, so some are from my youtube playlists and some are from my phone!)

This got realllly long so I’m putting in a read more...

1. I Don’t Want You Now by KT Tunstall

You can try to tie me down You can try to string me up But you have no luck now Please don't ever let me down again It shouldn't be allowed Please don't ever make me frown again You have shown me how Please don't try to be my friend again Because I don't want you, I don't want you now I don't want you now 

(so the whole chorus - but this entire song is gold tbh)

2. Hopeless Wanderer by Mumford & Sons

So when your hope's on fire But you know your desire Don't hold a glass over the flame Don't let your heart grow cold I will call you by name I will share your road 

---

I will learn to love the skies I'm under 

(another favourite partly because of the possible robin hood link...? and that silly music video)

3. Ar Dân (On Fire) by Iwan Rheon

Tell me  do you want me Or do you want me to be Out of this world 

(Iwan’s a cutie with a great voice and songs you should check him out..)

4. Science & Faith by The Script

Having heavy conversations About the furthest constellations of our souls. 

---

You won't find faith or hope down a telescope You won't find heart and soul in the stars You can break everything down to chemicals But you can't explain a love like ours.

(so the chorus again and it’s cheesy but great so eh)

5. The Unknown by Athlete

Let your world be wide open And your fears be blown apart 

---

Leaders, lovers come and go Outside forces you can't control Oh I see you smiling at the unknown

(this song makes me feel so goooood)

6. Conquest of Spaces by Woodkid

I'm ready to start the conquest of spaces Expanding between you and me Come with the night the science of fighting The forces of gravity

(another chorus... but Woodkid’s really great you should have a listen)

7. King And Lionheart by Of Monsters And Men

His crown lit up the way as we moved slowly Past the wondering eyes of the ones that were left behind.

---

Howling ghosts – they reappear In mountains that are stacked with fear But you're a king and I'm a lionheart. And in the sea that's painted black, Creatures lurk below the deck But you're a king and I'm a lionheart. And as the world comes to an end I'll be here to hold your hand 'Cause you're my king and I'm your lionheart. 

(THIS WHOLE SONG TBH so much merthur (or stucky but mainly merthur))

8. Evaporate by Gabrielle Aplin

Flesh and bone wrapped up in skin Kept alive by oxygen But right now breathing is so tough. They say they know what I can feel And time will find a way to heal But right now time is not enough.

---

You smash the trouble I can’t take And all the pieces of the break  Evaporate, evaporate, evaporate 

(fitzsimmons anyone? (also this is a really great feel good song))  

9. The Same by Birdy

Don’t assume I will follow And drop all my morals So you can look good for the crowd You don’t care about my thoughts Just the light that I brought I’m tired of helping you out 

(this one is just a massive fuck you tbh I love it (so is Keep On Walking by Gabrielle Aplin it’s golden))  

10. Shallows by Daughter

Dry your smoke-stung eyes So you can see the light You're staring at the sky Watching stars collide 

---

And let it all rain down From the blood stained clouds Come out, come out, to the sea my love And just Drown with me 

(this song is so beautiful and emotional and sad it makes me cry nearly every time I hear it (and it’s on my sleep playlist so that’s a lot))

If you’ve got to the bottom, well done...

I shall tag arthurdollophead​, behindbucky​, jiralhanae​, exceptionalclara​ and thecurlymop​ - enjoy! (if you want to do it ;))

jiralhanae replied to your post “why do I have to have such aggressive full body hiccups NO”

BOO!!

ahahaha nice one ;)

behindbucky replied to your post “why do I have to have such aggressive full body hiccups NO”

aww they're the worst (the only upside is that it super annoys my family when I get them because they're so loud :D) Try focusing on a point in front of you for a while and not thinking about breathing that sometimes helps make them go away?

ah I’m all alone today so no one to annoy unfortunately! and they went away on their own before I saw this so I shall save this advice for future use ;)
