Time. Once you hit the age of 18, it blasts off like a Rocket Ship. But inside, we are still the same pretty much, as we were at 18 just with layers of experiences piled on top. tbh, I never expected to hit the age of 30, but now I've more than doubled it. What an incredible Blast this Life has been, even the Downs as well as the Ups. Best Wishes for an Outstanding 2023. Bob. 👍⛵️✨️✨️✨️
A very similar experience, it was in one of the cities of the former Communist East, I'm 16 or 17. Cloudy and windy spring day. I leave the local movie theater and hear this song for the first time and will never forget what I heard.
i haven't gotten excited or gotten into anything for a really long time, just living the burnout life, but this serie has been following me notoriously as of late and since i already had it on my tbr i'm getting these books in like two weeks. i haven't read them before on the web and seeing all these quote comments here is making me feel INTENSE. like a little fizzball with too much energy, right here in the middle of the night. i haven't felt like that for SO LONG. i can't wait to read these!!
ATYD is practically canon at this point. This entire story has just consumed my life. The culture, the music, the fashion, even the vocabulary. I regret none of it
Let´s put it this way. ATYD is a nice story, from the point of writing stories. Cursed child isn´t. Cursed child on the other hand is written by a transphobic women, while ATYD presumably isn´t. I don´t know who wrote it, or ever how to gender that person, but I don´t think the person that wrote it is transphobic.
@@iammrbadguy9706 is this song about something in particular. I mean I know Bowie wrote it and I believe I have a basic understanding of his sexual history and his what they used to call gender bending dress mode and all of it but if there's an actual "story' as such, I'm not familiar with that And then there's the fact that I've sort of assumed a narrative about what it's about just organically on my own and which has nothing to do with gender just more literally the celebration of youth, it's idiosyncrasies, flairs and foibles, where dudes is just a word that fit. It probably could have been all the young spoons or something else. I've always been able to appreciate an in-joke without having to have been in on the joke itself. But then again I also understand that it might have been very time centric and very britcentric for lack of better terminology. Anything you could tell me even if opinion, I'd be interested in hearing. I suppose I should add that the appeal for me of the song while overwhelmingly musical, because I always thought what I thought about it's content it's made Me burst out crying while laughing more than once
“Oh shut up, you love me really.” Sirius kicked him in the shin. I do, Remus thought, pitifully, I really bloody do. But of course, that was not what Sirius had meant.
Wow talk about a generation gap. Have no ideal wtf your all talking about but I'm Emphatically pleased that ya'all love this song from my Era as much as I do
@@inasillygoofymood a REALLY popular fanfiction which everyone is classing as canon (what actually happened) is called all the young dudes. And this song is in the best part of the fanfic
NOT ALL OF US HERE BECAUSE OF ALL THE YOUNG DUDES FANFIC I CANT WITH OUR FANDOM BUT ALSO I LOVE YOU ALL PLEASE REMEMBER TO HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT, DRINK SOME WATER AND TAKE YOUR MEDICATIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY
I just realised that MsKingBean89 could and has read these comments. I hope that they realise how much we appreciate them! Thank you MsKingBean89, you were our little bit of magic!
Honestly was a little disappointed with her spinoff. Like it was really good but a little disappointed that the writing wasn't as good as mskingbean89 tbh
I've shifted before. I didn't mean to hit I cried when I woke up because I wanted to go back. Yea so it was my night off and in my script I was basically the Sirius black of the Snape family but instead I was an evans and I fancied Sirius black and remu. It was fun.
@@paddysworld3978 well it all started when a transphobic woman (who shall not be named because we don't claim her) wrote a very popular book series, known as "Harry Potter". [I guess spoiler warning for Harry Potter in case you somehow avoided it the past decades, but were planning to get into it now]. With the grip the Harry Potter universe had, and still has, on pop culture and with the rise of fanfiction written by young girls, it isn't surprising that a lot of fans kept expanding the universe with their own stories. In 2017 a wolfstar (wolfstar is the shipping name for remus lupin and sirius black) fanfiction taking place during the marauders era (which is basically the time period between the point where Harry's parents started hogwarts and the point where they died) from the point of view of werewolf remus lupin, started being published on AO3 (Archive of our own). It has since become one of the most popular fanfictions on that platform and has build its own fandom. You might wonder what all that has to do with poor David and Mott the Hoople. Well you see, music and the way character connect through music is an important part of the story so there are some conversations about artists (like David Bowie for example) and there are a lot of lyrics from popular 70s songs in-between paragraphs. "All the young dudes" however is the most important song because the story is named after this song. So what I'm trying to tell you is that this has become the soundtrack for a story about a bunch of gay, dead wizards... If want you can read it, it is free.
“I know who you are” Sirius whispered in to the empty quiet of the dark bedroom. “Hm?” Remus asked, sleepy and confused. Sirius pulled Remus’s hand to his mouth and kissed his fingers “You said you don’t know who you are anymore. But I do. You’re my moony. Always will be. Ok?” “Ok, Padfoot”
"for years and years afterwards, once the agony of all those funerals and obituaries and memorials and speeches had faded, Remus would be left with memories of his last months at Hogwarts, when they had been stupid and naive and indescribably happy without even knowing it"
“I’m gay.” He said. Peter choked on his drink. Out of the corner of his eye, Remus saw James run his hands through his hair, sit up straighter. He saw Mary’s mouth fall open, and heard Marlene give out a surprised hiccup. He dared not look at Sirius. His stomach turned and he prepared to get up, to walk away and apparate somewhere. Anywhere. But then Lily raised her head. She kissed his cheek and hugged him tighter, before settling back down against his shoulder. “You still deserve some fun.” She said, decisively.”
Harry Potter fan all my life and I just came to listen to the song because I like and HOLY SHIT what goes on in here, now I am reading a fanfiction I never heard of before I love the internet...
“Fortunately, the statute of secrecy does not apply to partners, spouses or family members.” Dumbledore replied, calmly, “And I assume he is your…” Remus exhaled smoke, rubbing his head again, “Well he’s not my fucking brother, professor.” BEST SARCASTIC LINE IN THE BOOK AND YOU CANT CHANGE MY MIND
sirius shrudded slightly, which remus took for a laugh. he squeezed him tighter, and kissed his shoulder. "love and hate," he murmured, thoughtfully. "love or hate, i s'pose," sirius clarified. "you make a choice." "is it that simple then?" "yeah. i think it is." sirius reached for his hand under the duvet. he looked up at remus, his eyes now icy grey, but as piercing as ever. he was asking a question. remus squeezed his hand in answer, "love," he said. And then he kissed him.
“Sh,” Sirius shook his head. “Shh,” Sirius said again, leaning forward now, letting go of Remus’ wrists, “Just this… just…” His face was buried in the pillow next to them, Remus could hear his breathing quickening over the opening refrain of Rock ‘n’ Roll with Me.
Bloody hell I did NOT expect the comment section to be filled with fellow potterheads ⚡ and marauder stans 🐺🦌🐶🐀 I'm reading the fanfic rn and questioning myself why I didn't read it sooner
"And in an instant, Remus understood. He saw Grant properly for the first time, not as his protector, his champion, but as a person who was not so very different from him, who was just as vulnerable to suffering."
“I haven’t always been fair to you.” Remus said. He had wanted to say it for a long time now. He wanted some kind of forgiveness. “You’ve been fine,” Grant smiled, without a trace of blame. “You’ve been my little bit of magic.” Remus made a strangled noise, and tried not to cry. Grant hugged him, and they held each other for the last time.
"For years and years afterwards, once the agony of all those funerals and obituaries and memorials and speeches had faded, Remus would be left with memories of his last months at Hogwarts, when they had been stupid and naive and indescribably happy without even knowing it."
Crying over a werwolf, Harry’s dead dad , a boy who ran away from his home, his brother , and the guy that betrayed them all 😭😭✋✋ AND I CANT FORGET GRANT
