Cant stop listening to my favorite songs for a dopamine rush

[shadowninya]

all I do all day is stare at my screen and play my favorite songs on loop

 

[Total Imbecile]

You will eventually get sick of them and then youll hate them.

post there if you like them

I still enjoy music but I always wonder what's it like to listen without any prior knowledge of theory and arrangement etc. Sine I've been a musician for 14 years I just hear the chords, and individual parts etc-- there no sense of wonder anymore

 

[A Good Friend]

I still listen to the same few bands I've listened to forever

if it's truly for you, it never gets old

 

[PM_ME_STRIPPERS]

it gets boring after a while, soon u search for a good song but then realise in this day and age theres too many shitty pop songs and not enough good songs

Sad but true. Neuronal habituation.

I will never get sick of this

Ehh. I've listened to this at least 50 times. Maybe you're right...

Those are amateur numbers. I have songs that I've listened to over 1000 times in a short period of time. The only way you can get un-"sick" of them is by taking a prolonged break from them, which counteracts the habituation.

Also, this song is... trash lol. It doesn't differentiate itself from the thousands of similar songs in the slightest. You probably have some sort of subjective attachment to it.

I like cute anime girls, and it sounds good. I haven't even watched the show, I just like the opening.

Listen to the rapper NF - Remember this if you didnt discovered him yet.

I like cute anime girls

but, as someone who didnt know anime at all, what do you find so good about?

Well....it's aesthetically appealing, and it spans across a wide range of genres.

@blickpall Here's a track I think you'll appreciate.

[blickpall]

Honestly that's similar to asking "I have never seen movies, what's so good about them?"

How does one answer this question? Anime, like movies, is too enormous of a market to explain in specific terms. If I really had to try, I would say that it a very flexible artform that can tell stories that other visual mediums struggle to approach. Anime can place the eye or "camera" wherever the artist wants, the angle to whichever direction and position.

They can also tell stories based on traditional stories with a different twist, or present them in a novel way. In other words, there are things that are possible in anime that are not possible in real life and are only possible through other similar animated media, such as CGI or Disney cartoons, etc. (and even then, those other mediums have limitations too; certain things only look good in anime and not in CGI, for example). However, it often comes from a markedly different cultural background, which in turn often influences the media itself in terms of its focal points, moralistic insinuations and motivations, etc.

Anime can also be just very visually appealing. Similar to how a beautiful shot from a movie is the work of a brilliant cinematographer, editor, and director, a beautiful scene from an anime is the work of talented artists that paint a stunning visual for the audience. Let me show you some examples of what I consider to be some good examples of similar content in Asian movies vs. anime and their respective merits:

Don't forget about slice of life. It's a good way to escape into a comedic place that you'll never experience.

Also, how did you get 7 videos into one post lol?

 

[NutNotBusted]

I love this thread: incels have a good taste in music.

Here is my overlistened song:

[blickpall]

It represents a lot that would go over a typical listener's head.

I've watched many similar videos and I think that it certainly makes interesting connections but unless we hear from the musicians themselves, we won't know if any of it was intended or not. It's fun to think about and may have roots in some music theory that I may not be privy to, but it also seems like fantheory more than anything.

 

[Kointo1]

Sword Art Online​

I liked some of SAO. It was the second anime I ever watched. I got into anime relatively recently.

I don't have much experience with "slice of life" but I think I pretty much covered that in my more general descriptions of what anime can do. If I had to cover every genre, that post would take me hours.

Might be because I'm a mod, but I remember not being able to do it in the past well. Perhaps the limit has been lifted? Or maybe it was just lifted for mods, idk.

Yeah. A lot of it adds up to the plot.

Which could be simple conjecture and a manifestation of man's desire to find patterns, correlations, and causation even where it does not exist. Or, it could be intended. Point is, I wouldn't take these analysis videos as gospel, or canon.

It could be either one. It's merely something to ponder on or consider.

Ah. What shall I say?

Superdetailed explanation, it's truly like you said, I didn't know this anime thing was so popular away from Japan.
So, anime=cartoons but with certain qualities not achievable via normal cartoons.

You seem to like them much.

But how powerful are anime here?

Based on the material I have seen here, along with your above post, my judgement is : anime are twisted japanese cartoons, its appeal is dubious at the very least and they seem based on some perverted backhanded rogue-like idolatry. They may very well be work of SATAN. But, as I believe some videogames\cartoons are art, as such some anime may be art.

As such stated above, especially in such circumstance, I shall treat it as a potentially harmful phenomenon.

lol wtf

I don't think you got his point.

It's just Japanese media and entertainment. Not a work of satan.

You can't say the appeal is "dubious" when you have already witnessed the fact that the appeal is present for many. If it is the work of Satan, then isn't the appeal going to be very real, because it originates from the great tempter himself?

Frankly, if you believe in Satan and all of that, then sure I can see how it's not unreasonable to view Anime as being a vehicle for pushing haram ideals, behaviors, and as a pastime in itself. Some anime ARE about perversion, "twisted" things, idolatry, etc. However, I wouldn't write off the whole genre in one fell swoop, just like I don't think you write off all movies or all books as the work of Satan.

In terms of "how powerful" can they be - they can teach you lessons and make you feel things that I haven't felt in other media, on the magnitude of some movies.

I know we are fundamentally different and I can't judge your belief or life, but I have to say that this response from you honestly makes me feel very happy that I have not succumbed to the pull of religion and the closed-mindedness it enforces on people about what are essentially fairytales not much different than those written in the old books. How is a story about a boy who can walk on water, written 20 years ago, much different from the story about a man who can walk on water, written 2000 years ago? I don't want to get into a debate about it, just my perspective on the matter.

 

[nausea]

LOL if you didn't teach me how to multiquote my answer would have been a mess

it is for me, not for the animecels

If it is the work of Satan, then isn't the appeal going to be very real, because it originates from the great tempter himself?

it may be her work, but she is not great tempter at all

Frankly, if you believe in Satan and all of that

does not compute ( what? )

then sure I can see how it's not unreasonable to view Anime as being a vehicle for pushing haram ideals, behaviors, and as a pastime in itself

there are no "haraam ideals" ( wtf?! )

Some anime ARE about perversion, "twisted" things, idolatry, etc. However, I wouldn't write off the whole genre in one fell swoop, just like I don't think you write off all movies or all books as the work of Satan.

that is my position indeed, some of it may be art indeed
I am new to this anime, but aint' fool

In terms of "how powerful" can they be - they can teach you lessons and make you feel things that I haven't felt in other media, on the magnitude of some movies

yes that may be true, indeed

I know we are fundamentally different and I can't judge your belief or life, but I have to say that this response from you honestly makes me feel very happy that I have not succumbed to the pull of religion and the closed-mindedness it enforces on people about what are essentially fairytales not much different than those written in the old books.

total confusion in your mind about my belief, it may be for various reasons not correlated to "who's at fault here"games
those fairytales you may refer to are allegories, just allegories obviously

sadly, something seems to have "undermined" your deep-rooted connection with nature; your last paragraph is totally abominable and nonsensical : why do you confuse god with gods, for example? I shall make a thread about something related when I can, it is very good material you surely will find it superinteresting.

there's nothing wrong with whatever happens through discussion imho

respect, but wallahi !
