i am involved in too many other things rn to rewatch dark but i NEED someone else in my life to fall in love with it so i can experience it again vicariously. my alarm is the music from when jonas and alt-martha kiss in her bedroom and theyre crying and at this point it just sounds like an alarm to me. but if i think hard enough about it i want to cry too. and i need someone to feel the same way about my alarm sound so we can cry about it together every time my laundry timer ends

Today marks the 50th anniversary of Time Bokan's first episode airing! October 4th, 1975 was when a silly show about some time traveling heroes facing off against a trio of baddies first hit audiences via Fuji TV. I don't think anyone watching expected what they were watching to completely change the face of pop culture...

Virage à 180 degré !

Last week, I decided I was finally getting to listen québécois music, because im from here, and i was still stuck with my outdated idea that our music sucked (well i mean i still generally think that, but we do have a few good songs here and there, just like anywhere else :) ).

As usual : Song titles link to individual mp3 file download

All 5 songs can also be downloaded together in a zip file from the link at the bottom

I wasnt originally gonna post only about women, but here, they're all women :D (J'avais aussi pas planifié de mettre 3/5 tounes de Plamondon, but here we are sljkdaksjhhd)

Céline Dion - Je danse dans ma tête

Cause I, too, am d-d-d-d-dancing in my head :3

Je danse dans ma tête was on Dion Chante Plamondon, from 1991

tw flashing/moving lights for this video

Luce Dufault - Quand on s'en va pour oublier

I listened to this album, recently, and I figured my mom probably listened to this album a lot, as I had forgotten about this until then. It also confirmed me I always liked dramatic music lol.

Quand on s'en va pour oublier was on Luce Dufault's eponymous album, released in 1996

Marie Carmen - Piaf chanterait du rock

This is a new discovery for me ! I didnt know Marie Carmen did rock before doing what she is known for, nowaday :) And, not gonna lie, she's probably right, it would make sense that Piaf would have turned to rock, had she been in the 80's rather than the 40's lol I also want to say that I always, always, always fucking LOVED Marie Carmen's voice (ironically this one song doesn't really show her iconic voice but oh well)

Piaf chanterait du rock is on the Dans la Peau album, from 1988-89 depending on the source... (song is from 86, fwiw)

(there also is a very bad quality video clip on yt , which is delightful, but yeaaah.....)

Marjo - Y'a des matins

The apple didn't fall too far from the tree and I inherited my mother's appreciation for Marjo/Corbeau :) I had like 5 songs i wanted to put here, but I chose this one cause it's stuck in my head lmao

Also appreciating how Marjo never tried to hide her québécois accent, too ♥

Y'a des matins was on the album Tant qu'il y aura des enfants, released in 1990

Nanette Workman - Ce soir on danse à Naziland

So i listened the original studio recording of Starmania for the first time, a couple days ago, and it struck me how much nothing changed. The first thing I noticed is how queer the story is ! It made me wonder how we regressed so much since 1978...

I also thought the subject matter of this song in particular was still very, very relevant. (also just to prove mariah carey isnt the only one with whistling notes lol (also also they cut it when it plays on the radio, here :( ))

Ce soir on danse à Naziland was on Starmania, in 1978. (discogs is wrong on this one... 79 that's when the show opened, not when this was recorded)

Marjo de Time Bokan

[doscientasmph]

some marjo stuff i did

[marceee24]

TK and Mateo go viral twerking to Cardi B/Megan thee Stallion's new song. Marjan gets jealous for 2 reasons.

1. Because Cardi's retweet of TK/Mateo's video gets more attention than her Cardi retweet.

2. Because Mateo gets some extra attention from other girls on social media. Thankfully Paul explains to Mateo the reason why Marjan doesn't talk to him for a week. Mateo buys Marjan flowers and gives her a very special IRL performance that makes Marjan laugh so hard that she forgives him.
