Been listening to a lot of noah kahan songs lately and theyre all so JD coded its CRAZY
Might be a hot take but Orbiter is like the most john dory song ever “Some will never know they're beautiful, Until the crowd points it out for them” Brozone era…. John dory……….. ALSO All Them Horses is my favorite noah kahan song but I can barely listen to it because I relate to it myself and also because I keep think of john dory whenever I listen to it and get sad LOL
Not noah kahan but Bitter Medicine by the crane wives reminds me so much of JD too!!! “Don't look up to me, I'm not as tall as you think” LIKE HELLOOO I can imagine him saying that to branch </3. King and Lionheart by Of Monsters and Men also reminds me so much of JD and his bros!!! I could go on for hours just talking abt Great Decisions songs but I think I’ll end it here CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER BTW <333!!!
YES YES YES THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING RAHHHHHH
Allow me to share my thoughts as well ;)
"All them Horses" is SO GD!JD coded ahhhhh, like the first version of the refrain being him leaving the tree, then coming back, finding it empty, and then BOOM! Finds baby Branch? LOVE LOVE! "Godlight" is another one I've been listening to a lot lately, the refrain just fits JD SO WELL!!!
"Doors", "Staying Still", and "We Go Way Back" fit the HickDory vibes to well too.
"Willing and Able" as well as "Porchlight" just HIT for all my John Dory and Bruce's dynamic lovers out there, because GODDAMN (Me, it's me, I love those two so much)
"23" hits so hard with Clay, cause like, he mourns the loss of 'His brother, his Hero' so hard, and wants so badly to stay angry at him, but he's faced with the fact that maybe, he's just angry, and John Dory was someone easy to be angry at. If he 'Stays gone', Clay can continue to be angry at the version of JD he made in his head, and not faced the real, flawed version that exists.
"Deny, Deny, Deny" makes me think of him and Branch so much, like just talk to your brother man, he wants to know you!!!
I haven't found a great one for him and Floyd yet, but I'm sure I will at some point! Honestly, in "Orbiter", the lyric that goes like 'I see you in a camera flash, I look back, and you laugh, and this is hard, but I feel less far...' seems to fit them really well, idk. I like to think Floyd often thought of his oldest brother when he performed.
I haven't listened to those other songs you mentioned, but I'll have to! Thanks for the recommendations! I will continue to cry to Noah Kahan songs, and all the ties I've made to them from my story!
