i wish there was a name for a kind of song that’s catchy, upbeat, and worth dancing to, but also bittersweet and tinged with an unexplainable sadness. 

the best i can describe it is ‘songs you would put in an amv when a long series is over and you’re reminiscing on the journey while holding back sobs’

good examples:

  • little talks (of monsters and men)
  • what you want (two door cinema club)
  • glad you came (the wanted)
  • sun is shining (axwell ingrosso)
  • i lived (onerepublic)
  • mr. big shot (anarbor)

Y’all I love this post and had to make a spotify playlist of all these songs, (including ones in the tags+replies)

Enjoy!

i’m glad to see people coming together with the same musical interest. i highly recommend looking through these, or adding your own! 

General observations about this post coming back to it after making the initial playlist;

  • Lots of Imagine Dragons. So much Imagine Dragons.
  • Several people have come up with names for this genre, my personal favorites being “dance melancholia” “musical reprise” and “depression bops”
  • I see the homestucks in the notes/replies. I knew putting How Far We’ve Come in would pull y’all out of the cracks

I put it in the playlist description but if you have suggestions pop me an ask or put them in the tags/your post reply! The playlist is still a work in progress, so any additions are welcome!

Forget the Myers-Briggs fucking personality assessment. I am dead tired of hearing if someone is an INFP or an ESLQ or whatever. I want to know if someone is melancholic or choleric. Bring back the four humors. I wanna see “Kaley, 16, phlegmatic” when I go to someone’s blog. Who is with me. Lets make this happen

here’s a test i found. go wild, y’all. (im choleric.)

Sometimes a family is a shitty lesbian, her acoustic keytar, a unicorn rabbit she picked up in the woods, and a massive and incredibly powerful magical construct who she befriended on accident.
My newest dnd character, a halfling bard named Keeps!!!! The rabbit’s name is Jingles and the Sheild Guardian’s name is Bender!

[Image description: the first image is of female halfling with short, fiery red hair which curls up in the back. She has a tan complexion and is dressed in a purple tank top, red pants, and purple boots with red spikes visible at the soles. She wears a ruby amulet mounted on a wooden chain. She is proudly wielding an “acoustic keytar”, a keytar which has golden strings in the place of keys. The keytar is also red and purple. Three potions line her waist attached to a brown belt with a golden buckle, and on her back is an enormous leather backpack with golden accents. At her side is a silver rapier which is hooked at the end. You get the impression that it might just be for dramatic effect, as in reality it would be a useless weapon.
The second image features the same halfling sitting on a large rock, surrounded by grass with a forest of pine trees visible in the distance. She has an enormous smile and is crying a little bit. Her right foot is kicked up as she laughs. In her arms is a small brown rabbit with a golden unicorn horn and lion’s mane. Sitting behind her is a large metal-and-wood construct which resembles an enormous suit of armor. He is partially obscured by the rock, however his right arm is visible resting on his right knee as his left arm supports his weight.]
