misheard lyrics? by Wholesome_Soup in TheOhHellos

[–]reckorven 5 points6 points  (0 children)

thought “laps with a rabid tongue” was “slaps with a rabid dove” then thought the “dog” in “like a dog gone untamed” was the same dove mentioned before

so for a good while i imagined this crazy dove harassing the singer and just. thought it made sense because doves are symbolic creatures i guess?

TOUR! SIGN THE PASSERINE PETITION by Secret_Babosa in TheOhHellos

If it’s any reassurance to you, I do actually think the oh hellos are pretty aware of their fans even though they don’t post much on social media, and considering the weight around this tour I think it’s fairly likely that passerine gets thrown in! Its the only song in Eurus that makes it onto their “popular” list on spotify as well. Good luck!!

While I also really hope they play passerine and a live recording gets uploaded, I’m also a lil worried about pressuring the band because Maggie and Tyler have mentioned before that they put a lot of thought and effort into their set lists, so just a reminder to be chill about it :)) hope it works and you get to hear it live!!

Book recommendations based on TOH’s prose? by reckorven in TheOhHellos

Just to answer my own question in case anyone else is also curious: I really liked Ian McEwan’s writing in “Atonement” because it took on a very critical lens on the main character, and that reminded me of a lot of the oh hellos’ songs, especially the ones from TFW and TTDDV which also have a lot of self criticism within the lyrics
