Hat Petering

is not what you think.

listening to this playlist while tapping my fingers against the steering wheel of my '57 Arctic Blue Chevrolet Corvette.

*relaxed sigh* passed the vibe check.

when everything's just kinda silent.

never dis any of these in front of me.

hubby <3

[English excluded]. no, I do not speak French. or anything other than English bc I'm a basic white girl.

[English excluded]. shit hits.

every Aussie white kid born in the 2000s know these jams & if you think you don't know it, wait till the chorus, bud.

smoooooth as a baby's bum.

without a doubt, my favourite artist.

when the chaos around you makes your stomach drop.

basically just "sorry. I had an odd dream and now I don't feel like I'm alive."

in love with JJ's voice.

pretty good combo.

fuck off, snowflake. [Sex Education]

fat rip.

delectable.

📌

faves from The Neighbourhood.

dated.

---if these start playing @ a party bc you bet your ass I'm screaming every one of these.

I really want to live in that bloody loft.

the energy is something else.

so wistful.

the neighbourhood's best.

some chill and cruisey and some hype af.

'better than chocolate, being with you last night. silly me, I thought that nothing was better than chocolate.'

walking into school and greasying the fuck outta everyone.

probably my favourite playlist ngl.

songs that mean the universe to me but also give me a warm hug and wrap a blanket around my shoulders, telling me to sleep.

cue the heartbreakingly happy and sad and angry and lost montages.

---bc, bro, your anger issues are terrifying.

apple wire earplugs = in. pretending I'm dance-walking down 5th Avenue @ 7:00 A.M. in N.Y.C. :)

what drowning beneath ice at -24℃ in the winter should feel like: almost silent but not quite.

astral projecting bc I'm sadly limited to this achingly human body.

his songs' style omfg.

---set in a cold, foggy & frosty climate where a small town is surrounded by mountains and forests and a group of teens have to solve a murder + the town's secret before they get killed by someone they thought they could trust.

mix of paranoia, dimly lit alleyways, odd beats (+ even odder people), fluorescent lights, a goosebump-raising breeze & a lowkey Gotham vibe.

angry. don't talk to me.

'what is an "instant" death anyway? how long is an instant? is it one second? ten? the pain of those seconds must have been awful as her heart burst and her lungs collapsed and there was no air and no blood to her brain and only raw panic.' [Looking for Alaska]

just a random mix. bops that feel fresh/clean.

have fun ladies & gentlemen.

pop songs that are actually good.

when I actually need to get out of bed and do shit but I'm trying to feel good about it. (R.I.P. sleep in)

walking out to the bus w/ no need for a jumper---only shorts & t-shirt---and breathing in the warm air. bonus points if there's a storm rolling in & you can smell the rain.

not exactly sad but most certainly on the verge of a breakdown.

feeling like I'm just stuck in a mundane cycle forever but trying to not think about it.

older, warm, comforting tones.

when no one's sober, because if they were the lights wouldn't glisten in such a way & the music wouldn't sound as euphoric & they wouldn't want to dance like a fucking moron with you on the sweaty dance floor.

in case of emergency.

most recent finds/faves.

yes, I listen to classical music. bite me.

literally all my songs x

pov: ur piss up gets busted by cops so u gotta jet. this music starts playin in ur head as ur runnin thru the streets of ur small hometown where jack shit happens on a hot summer night. u look behind to see all ur mates runnin & laughin together while gettin chased by a cop car.

one of a kind.

(or ex-crush). rock love songs/rock hate songs.

old + new rock.

deep, dark, heavy: music that really makes you feel.

eek.

temptress.

ahh the nostolgia.

yoink.

what I know.

well this is depressing.

you may understand now, you may understand later. but you will understand, I promise.

H.P., S.I., M.E., D.C.

fuck me I love storms.

---on a cold ass morning while rugged up and the windows are foggy and the rain pours and I just want to get back into my astronomically comfy bed.

I have a great appreciation for sad songs.

(Goose has my heart, always.) speed, heat, blood, sweat, tears, mates, adrenaline & heart.

'they say that I'm insane. no, it's okay, nod. I am insane.'

echoes. warmth & heartache. knowing it cannot possibly be the same again.

holding a hair brush as a microphone when singing in the mirror, then dancing down the stairs and posing while sliding along the floorboards wearing sunnies & pajamas.

songs that hug you.

if you don't care about storms, gtfo.

the realisation followed by sudden halt of life & thoughts because how am I meant to keep going?

just listen and feel the 90s + some early 2000s funk & groove.

important to me. (this was depressing, coming from 2023 me.)

:0

kinda depressing, kinda not. chill or cry, your choice.

hang on a minute... I thought I killed you?
