mostly just yapping to (& about) myself 🤷🏾♀️ bts, teaching, life, audhd (probably? idek atp), world issues 🍉 | 'it's going to be okay because the me of today is okay' | 28 | innermikrokosmo on twt
this is how i feel about my job and everyone trying to tell me that i'm way overqualified for it 😭
the thing abt me that i like but seems to stress basically everyone im close to is that no matter how successful i am at something, if it doesn’t make me happy i will stop/quit. and i don’t think its a discipline issue. i think i’m a disciple of joy. 🤷🏿♀️

I don’t know why but this video has lived rent free in my head for 8 years. Specifically, the extremely kindly and polite way Hobi talks to Jungkook whilst at the same time being like ‘you’re clearly just bullshitting now but okay’

![PRE-CHORUS
More every minute, more every hour
Inverted perfect 4ths - has the effect of perfect 5ths (famously creates a hollow, empty sound, like it's waiting for a note in the middle to fill it)
Oh, kkumin deusi
(Wendy sings this alone except for Jin's descending flourish, which is to help him find his next note)
Seonmyeonghi beonjyeogal
Inverted minor 6ths - has the effect of major thirds (sounds tight and good, this is the most basic interval for vocal harmony)
[Note: there is an additional octave gap down for Jin, to create that juxtaposition between his lower voice and Wendy's higher range and to set up the impact of the next line]
Gyejeol soge saegigo shi-
Same note one octave apart (to really hammer home how much they want to engrave these feelings)
-peun, you and
Minor 7th*, diminished 5th, major 3rd
(This sequence is Wendy rising and Jin descending in equal steps to meet each other at --)
me, ah
-- the same note, one octave apart.
*Note on the minor 7th here: Jin jumps a perfect 4th to hit his extremely jarring, discordant note** on the verb ending (shi)-peun for what Google says is "I want to" and this chord is meant to replicate the sour squeezing of your heart when you want something really badly
**the reason why this is so discordant is that actually this minor 7th is an inverted major 2nd, which is two white keys on the piano separated by a black key. It is so... so... close... yet so far... nearly there... but the effect it makes played together sounds like a toddler randomly keyboard smashing, it sounds horrible.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qcm5uvtzizbj2xjfzno4cyr7/bafkreib2oy46nlslnsdu6qhiq2f2ghr2zjcq53mu4z3f4t43my7okyygvu@jpeg)
![BRIDGE
Oh, I'll love you better
This time, inverted perfect 5ths - has the effect of perfect 4ths (creates a lingering sound, always wants to resolve to tonic [home key]. Also this interval is the flipped version of what's happening at the start of the pre-chorus)
Oh, I'll love you better
Inverted minor 6ths - has the effect of major 3rd (sounds gooood; Jin has risen one note here to make this sound good)
Yaksok-
Inverted perfect 5th again - effect of perfect 4th (lingering)
-hae nae mameul saegyeo
Same note, one octave apart - singing the same note, in sync, saying that they are one in their commitment to their promise
Oh, I'll love you better than
Same as previous line - reinforcing that their hearts are aligned
Oh, I'll love you better
Inverted major 3rds - effect of minor 6ths (dissonant, something feels off about it, like pining. What is happening in the melody line is that Wendy keeps bringing it one step higher and higher [think Christine in the Phantom of the Opera]. And what Jin is doing here is he's actually leapt a perfect 5th up in his harmonic line to try to catch up to Wendy - closing the gap from 8 notes to 5 notes...)
Oh, I'll love you better
Same as previous line
With my heart on the
Same note one octave apart (...except they find themselves split again...)
window
Inverted perfect 5ths again - perfect 4th effect (...and ending up with that lingering sound again.)
Note: the effect of the perfect 4th always wanting to resolve to the tonic (home key) is called the "amen" cadence as it is usually used to end hymns in classical music. So if you have heard the ending of a hymn before, think of that second last note that is just lingering, the "a--" before the "--men". That's how these 'effect of perfect 4th's are supposed to make you feel, like it's teetering and close to completion. (Note: I didn't name the cadence, centuries of classical music theory did)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qcm5uvtzizbj2xjfzno4cyr7/bafkreigsufghtrzy36zmjfpbz5g3ibmojynx7bqba3z4hdk237yrww4emi@jpeg)
