Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher (June 19, 2020) Album • Page 167

WILL THEY OR WON’T THEY

 

gotta do the math to see who I’m more jealous of

 

i can see phoebe stans are still completely and totally normal on twitter

 

I just don't understand caring about whether a musician gets married to someone or not, unless they're marrying someone problematic or something.

 

Doesn't seem that complicated. For one, many musicians put a lot of their personalities, lives, and worldview into their songs, meaning that if you like a person's writing, you're likely to like them as a person. If you like someone, you are invested in their happiness. Then there's also the impact on the actual art. When I introduce a new book, poem, or short story in class, I often talk about the social context it was published in. What was happening in the world, in the immediate locale of its publication, and what was happening in the life of the author. Context can be important or can at least color our understanding of art. You might follow a musician's personal life to both get a better understanding of their music and to anticipate changes in upcoming new releases (ie "what would a happy-in-love Phoebe Bridgers song sound like?"). On top of all of that, there's people who feel a parasocial relationship with their favorite artists and simply follow and judge every aspect of their personal lives. This is probably not the healthiest of reasons, but somewhat understandable nonetheless.

 

I don't know Paul Phoebe

 

i was going to make this joke but i stopped myself

 

Don't worry, I'm always happy to bring the dumb to this site

 

Excited for the eventual holiday record

 

Those ghost artworks are always perfect. I'm about to listen to the song though, which is more exciting, despite my old rule that I would only start listening to holiday tunes from December. I've just read the song features Paul Mescal and Andrew Bird too

 

I will break my "no Christmas music before Thanksgiving" rule just for Phoebe Bridgers, and Sufjan too. This was lovely.

 

I always forget she does this yearly and am pleasantly surprised when it randomly drops

 

Love the production on this.

 

Probably one of the coolest artwork/marketing I’ve seen in a while

 

omg they did not lol

They even used the old frame/text for the card. Tragic the Saddening??? lmaooooooo

 

explain to non nerds

 

There are non-nerds on this forum?!

 

lol it's the card game Magic the Gathering, but they went with the old classic card design instead of the newer design.



As opposed to:



Can't believe I just posted an image of Force of Will in the Phoebe thread, most ambitious crossover event ever
