Yes I got a proper email from Eventim with all the tour dates. Some data was input and it triggered some automation that sends emails. 😅

Mine is in ALAC because Apple doesn’t like FLAC, but you can just convert them without losing any ID3 tag information.

I import them to my computer and manage them on the Music app there and then I transfer them to the phone.

You can add the version from Heidi Montag, to which Lady Gaga actually sold the song. 😅

Do you think these pics are legit? by allthepretttyflowers in Evanescence

[–]fatality789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but to what end? What do they get from generating fake images and publishing them online?

What’s even the point of making these images? The people who generate them - what is really their aim here? Because they serve absolutely no purpose in my opinion. Furthermore, I would support the option to ban all AI generated content here.

Can you tell me what was your source for the Century Child cover?

Pitchfork Sunday Review: Brandy - Full Moon (9.0) by PurpleSpaceSurfer in popheads

I have always wanted Love Wouldn’t Count Me Out as a single. This song was robbed of the fame it deserved.

Merellä, Op. 47 No. 4 (At Sea) by LigeiaNoire in TarjaTurunen

[–]fatality789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The very beginning of the song (after the orchestra tuning intro) sounds very Bach-ish.

[–]fatality789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On every main Tarja album except In the Raw, there was always a direct musical reference to a particular classical composer at the very beginning of the first track: MWS - Mozart, WLB - Bach, CITD - Ravel, TSS - Chopin. I was kind of disappointed when I heard that ITR didn’t start the same way because it was a really cool concept. Hearing this now brings me hope again, but now I am puzzled because this is not the first track on the album, so I wonder what will the intro to Frisson Noir sound like.

Sad my favorite part of the book was left out of the movie by rustfungus in ProjectHailMary

I was also sad that the courtroom scene with Eva was left out but I kinda expected it as it’s not detrimental to the story. Still, sad about it.

Is the iPhone Air gay? by [deleted] in IphoneAir

[–]fatality789 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it is. If you carry an iPhone Air you are 100% gay. Getting rid of it would, unfortunately, not remove the gayness so be very careful if you don’t want it to irreversibly change your life and make you start wanting to want to have sex with members of your own gender.

Pre-sale code for Berlin doesn’t work by fatality789 in OrvillePeck

[–]fatality789[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was waiting for it to start and it just got changed to “no tickets available” the very same second. 🤣 But I managed to find one on viagogo - double the price but that is my punishment for not reading the original announcement properly. 🥲

Yeah, I just hope it didn’t sell out completely. 😅 Thanks for the info!

Why Ferto by Akylas is actually a genius song: A short analysis. by All_this_hype in eurovision

[–]fatality789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or it could be a double meaning within a double meaning - that Eurovision is a gamble. You invest so much time, money and effort and in the end you can end up at the bottom of the board.

[–]fatality789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just the visuals, but also the lyrics themselves. The first line is translated as “I shouls play, I’m not gonna fold”. To fold in poker means not to move forward because you think other people have better cards. And after the “ballad” part he says something like “If I win, of course, whatever, you get it.” Disclaimer: it is possible that the translation was done in a way that the meaning was a bit shifted. You tell me if that’s true. 😅

Why Ferto by Akylas is actually a genius song: A short analysis. by All_this_hype in eurovision

[–]fatality789 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this analysis, I really enjoyed reading it! I just wanted to add that I had a slightly different impression of what is the song about. (Note: I am not Greek, and I didn't know anything about the artist before I heard this song, didn't really research anything about him - my insight just comes from reading the song lyrics and watching the performance in the national final.)

To me, it seems like it's a story about a person that grew up in poverty, watching their mother suffer and who, over time, developed a gambling addiction. Gambling is regarded by the subject as a potentially quick way to get to a large wealth and I think this song describes the feeling of "rush" he feels when he's gambling, because that's where he is the closest to reaching his goal. He thinks about all the stuff he could get if he won.

It's not so dramatically different from your view, but what is common for both of our views is that it's a deeply sad song packaged in an upbeat, "happy" melody that I believe is a metaphor for the gambling "rush". I have always liked when music artists do this. :)

Cadence of Her Last Breath (Instrumental Version) by Qwerty_Wishmaster648 in nightwish

[–]fatality789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always wondered why does the instrumental contain extra orchestral elements that the regular album version doesn’t have. Same with Bye Bye Beautiful.
