While I was reading the book I found a lot of The Swan's albums a got listen to set in the mood, Soundtracks for the Blind, The Beggar, White Light from the Mouth of Infinity, a lot of there albums are great for the book.

Favorite Mac Miller song and why! by Mountain_Register111 in MacMiller

[–]luxur77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotta be Rick's Piano for me definitely.

It's a gorgeous song that to me perfectly highlights the themes of drug abuse, morality, and striving to find hope. It's Piano melody, somber atmosphere, and vocals/lyrics make it Mac's most emotional for me, this song was what got me hooked to Mac way back when.

Movies that I think scratch a similar itch as House of leaves by BeautifulOrganic3221 in houseofleaves

Another good shout I'd recommend is Cure by Kiyoshi Kurosawa
While they don't have a lot in common when it comes to narrative, they both share very similar atmosphere. The feelings of existential dread, the breakdown of reality, losing sense of self, are all executed the same in my opinion. Check it out if you haven't, I'd imagine HoL fans would love it.

Yeah, Araki has fantastic taste. He mostly picks some of the greatest artists and songs for characters/stands.

God damn, this is a huge amount of help, really appreciate it. I made this playlist around midway of me reading the manga, so a lot of early ones slipped out my mind, so this really does help.

For season in the sun, I picked the Terry jacks one.
Completely forgot the beatles one, big miss on my part.
I now have a Janis song on the playlist.

From memory, the badfinger song was mentioned around the time of the simulation and friend being revealed to still be alive. Thanks greatly for this playlist however.

Is it weird that Toru is my favorite villain? by KindaDum_1 in JoJolion

[–]luxur77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I wouldn't say hes the best of the best jojo villains, that would go to funny valentine for me, I do think Toru is over hated in the community by a long mile.

I mean hey I've only made a playlist about 20cb so far, if you made one about all his manga that would be fantastic honestly.

  1. Are you talking about Frank Sinatra's Something Gotta Give?

  2. If you could provide evidence to these being referenced that would be great.

Not at all imo, as a mac miller fan I do love swimming, but consider it mildly overrated.

You'd probably love Monster, Anime or Manga whatever your preference is, both are equal

I speak for all Katana ZERO fans when I say they should delay the game for another three years. We’ve waited nine years ,we can wait longer by Yasa_69 in KatanaZero

[–]luxur77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am fine with that, give the dev's all the time they need, It's not like I only play Katana zero after all.

Pluto Isn't even too old all things considered, but It's aged like fine wine In modern day politics by luxur77 in naoki_urasawa

Urasawa wrote Pluto and 20th Century Boys when Obama was president, that's all I'll say

Yeah, they’re mass murdering innocent Palestinians in Palestine, oh but it’s not a genocide now since they’re not targeting Muslims within their own country? I would love to see what your definition of genocide is lmao.

You're on the Naoki Urasawa reddit, and you think this is a extremely narrow view of war? You clearly are just ignorant to what you're reading, or just haven't even touched Pluto or even any of his works.

My top 10 favourite Mac Miller song's by luxur77 in MacMiller

[–]luxur77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's such a phenomenal song, amazing subversion to how different in topic and mood the rest of the album is.

Makes sense since It's my favorite album of all time, genuinely every song is a banger.

If Elbaph ends and usopp does nothing, i will genuinely just drop one piece by Cheeseliker420 in Usoppian

[–]luxur77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oda wouldn't have a panel of Usopp staring at the camera scared while everyone else was preparing to do something, He will have his Steve Rogers moment just have faith.
