why do so many songs about rain sound like they’re trying to make it seem like a metaphor for sadness when it’s honestly just wet and annoying

why do so many songs about rain sound like they’re trying to make it seem like a metaphor for sadness when it’s honestly just wet and annoying
seriously though, it’s like every time there’s a slow piano and some soft rain sound effects in the background, the lyrics are all ‘oh the pain of existence’ or whatever. rain is just... rain. lowkey sometimes it ruins your shoes, sometimes it’s nice for napping, but it doesn’t n...

why do songs about space always sound... wistful??
like there’s this weird mix of loneliness and wonder in so many space-themed tracks?? even ones that aren’t explicitly sad still kinda give off “floating untethered in the void” vibes... i think it’s something about the reverb and synth pads that just scream “standin on a tiny pl...

why do songs about driving always sound so much better when you're actually driving
like, i was blasting this one track earlier today on my way to grab groceries (yeah, riveting life i lead) and it hit *so* differently compared to when i played it at home. honestly something about the rhythm lining up with the road noise and the scenery whizzing by just makes it...
