Jewelle is a low note QUEEN

[@noodlearg9745]

the notes aren’t even that low but the quality of her voice makes them seem so low and it’s so beautiful and i wish my low notes sounded so smooth 😭

1:56 sounds sooooo good

[@jamessirot854]

We need to discuss which fate is which. The only clues that separate them (beside their actresses’ names) is the instruments they play. An accordion, a violin, and a tambourine. I say violin is Atropos (the thread cutter). That leaves Clotho and Lachesis.

[@cristaljaide]

According to the lyrics for this song on Genius (so idk if it's true or not) Atropos is the one with the accordion, Clotho is the one with the violin, and Lachesis is the one with the tambourine! Apparently that's why each fate has specific lyrics and actions about the themes they represent.

[@jamessirot854]

@@cristaljaide Thank you

[@cursedkaleidoscope]

According to the harmonies, Clotho is the soprano and Atropos is the low alto, so from left to right: Lachesis, Atropos, Clotho

[@jamessirot854]

@@cursedkaleidoscope Thank you

[@cursedkaleidoscope]

@@jamessirot854 no problem! I'm singing this with two friends so we had to figure that out

[@rainbowandre9580]
