you surrender your heart

I surrender every dream

Mr Anthony J. “I didn’t so much fall as sauntered vaguely downwards” Crowley. Mr Anthony Janthony “Look here, it's Lucifer and the guys” Crowley. Mr Anthony Jennifer “I wouldn’t worry though, how much trouble can I get into just for asking a few questions?” Crowley.

Seriously though, can we talk about how from the start Crowley had more hope for and faith in Heaven than Aziraphale ever did. The first time we see Aziraphale his naïveté has an air of touchy pragmatism to it already. While Crowley in fact had so much hope, he wouldn’t have imagined that questioning anything about Heaven could get him in trouble. Aziraphale knows. From the start Aziraphale knew and was doing a lot of heavy lifting to justify it to himself. But Crowley’s pure faith and hope made him admit it (almost), it always made him face the hypocrisy in heaven and subsequently himself…

Been thinking too much about Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy. Just the fact the only proper Queen song we got all season was that song is still haunting me. Like, we got so much Queen season 1 and, while Give Me Coffee or Give Me Death works as a venue to still give us various songs, the only one actually sung by them - the only one the Bentley actually plays - is that one. The ultimate Good Omens Song.

And I can’t stop thinking about the lines they used and the ones they avoided because like. Most of what they give us of the song is actually the guitar without lyrics. Which just makes the lyrics we do get seem very specific and intentional and I just. It opens with the lines Hey boy where did you get it from? Hey boy where did you go? I learned my passion from the good old fashioned school of lover boys. The fact that's the first beat that hits? Knowing how the season ends? They're trying to kill me with that.

Then it skips the line about the Ritz - one of their happy end symbols - and jumps right to Driving back in style, in my salon, will do quite- and cuts off before it can finish the line. It cuts right before the word nicely which just feels very Crowley in itself. And right before the line Just take me back to yours, that will be fine which is the opposite of how this season ends.

And. Anddd. The beat before the song cuts in feels very apt given our ending too.

When I'm not with you, think of me always. (I miss those long hot summer nights) I miss you. When I'm not with you, think of me always - Love you, love you.

It's just truly the perfect choice here.

you're all wrong. they 100% are gay men but they're also 100% not gay men. it depends on who you're asking, the humans or the angels and demons. it's schrödinger's az&crow identity
