SongShots
Description
So for those of you who know me, and those who don't... One of the special things about my writing is that it's always based on and revolving around songs. I think songs are so beautiful and sometimes it's just the music, sometimes the lyrics or the tune, or maybe it's even the voice... Or sometimes it's all these things altogether as a whole that make the song something so memorable and amazing. Some songs are emotionally touching, sometimes they tell us stories or remind us of things.
When I listen to songs, I tend to form scenes in my head. It's like a short film, really, and I just keep these little movies in my head and when I listen to the song over and over it slowly develops and I make a whole story. Listening to the songs on repeat, I love to get lost in my own head and love to watch out these scenarios time and again.
In SongShots, I hope to share some of these with you and bring my thoughts out through words that you'll hopefully be able to vividly dream up too.
1. Firstly, I really reallly want you to listen ot the songs on the links I provide. Unless I give other instructions, please load the videos and only play the songs once you start reading. I know paces may vary but I'll do my best to fit it exactly how I wish for you to see it.
2. Not all the songs are kpop, and not all the songs are used for respective groups. I may use a song of one group as music for a member of another.
3. I have decided to finally write more deep, angsty and mature themes. Don't worry, I'll mark them as rated:)
4. New stories will be posted as one-shots but I will post the links here. I'll be posting the intros here and sorting them into collections and different categories.
5. WARNING that I am exo-biased and especially for Sehun and sometimes Kai. I may write Chanyeol, Tao, Baekhyun and Lay too but we'll see about those.
6. As for other groups, there's a chance but it's just a consideration... I do like other groups too.
7. If you want to request, kindly write it in comments- the song you want. I may not write it, so don't kill me please. It will again become a consideration.
Please read the foreword, and enjoy.
Foreword
Well, firstly I'd like to give everyone a huge apology. I'm really sorry but I'm kind of a free writer, I can't focus on one thing. When an emotion or idea that inspires me and pulls me comes up, I have to tend to it. I drift around alot from story to story, and I find it hard to finish one. To be truthful, bluebloods was the only one I could really focus on. As of now, my writing is pretty messed up and scattered, as you can probably tell if you read more than one of my later stories. Framed, Exile, Redroses- I have ideas for these- Framed and Redroses have a finished storyline that i just haven't penned down yet. I know many of you have been waiting and for that I'm truly apologetic. But, I like to write based on emotion and inspiration. I can deliver you the works- regular updates that will be lengthy and I could try to make them appealing, but I honestly don't see the point because I'd be delivering work with no quality or standard that isn't a fragment of my inspiration. Therefore, I decided to do songshots instead. It's something I've been thinking about for a while now. Songa really make me think a lot, and sometimes they are the basis of my emotions and they are the inspiration that leads to the stories. I haven't said it yet but Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose Lips" was the inspiration to Framed- you'll understand why (Unfortunately a loooong while later) and CNBlue's "Can't Stop" was one of the inspirations for BlueBloods. Since I realised that I kind of have an issue with the production of these lengthy multichaptered stories, I found it easier if I just did oneshots when I get struck with inspiration from the songs I love. This way, I can deliver pieces of work that are written with quality and feeling, and I also get to share the ideas in my head. If you're wondering what I mean, basically when I listen to the song, it forms a scene in my head that I then merge into a larger picture and develop a story from there. Kind of like a mini movie or music video. Well, I sincerely hope that you'll be able to picture the scenes in the same way they were projected in my head- I'll try to make them as descriptive and emotionally touching as possible. I hope that you can feel the same emotions I did, see the same pictures I did and that you'll want to get lost in your thoughts. I hope some of these will help you reflect and think about the real, bigger issues out there. Perhaps some of these will enable you to think of personal issues- some of you may relate to these. I hope the stories touch your heart and stay in your memories as something that you hold onto when you feel the need to pour out some emotion, or something lighthearted that makes your day just a little bit more happy and perhaps romantic. Enjoy:)
XOXO,
K.
