[TOMT] Name for a surrealist style of poetry (to be listened to, not read) where the poet speaks only non-words, nonsense words and weird speech sounds. I seem to remember it coming from France.

I thought it was called 'tone poetry', but this just leads me to recordings of symphonic poems. There was no music, just voice. I heard several examples of this kind of material on Resonance FM (a bonkers UK radio station) in around the year 2002, but I think it was much older. Does anyone know what I'm on about here?

[TOMT] anime where girl escapes a laboratory institute, she controls things with mind and kills people

I can’t remember much of what goes on in this anime, but I know it was a girl who escaped this laboratory Institute because they were doing tests on her and she eventually escaped and killed all the guards, and it was very gruesome.

She is able to control things with her mind, and when she escapes she befriends this boy, and stays with him. At first, he didn’t know she had powers. He thought she just couldn’t talk and was homeless or something.

I think he finds out about her powers and she ends up killing someone he knows and it causes a whole big situation, but I don’t exactly remember.

I do know that there were a lot of plot twists about why she ended up being in the laboratory and the whole anime consists of flashbacks into the past of stuff she’s been through quite a sad and gruesome anime.

[TOMT][SONG][80/90/00]

I'm trying to find a song and I don't know what it's called. It is an alt/pop rock song from what I'm guessing is the 90's. It goes like Na na nana na na na nana then says something after that as the chorus. It sounds like it would be playing in the background of someone running around on a show. And it has fun music. I am trying really hard to find the song. Pls help

Sorry about vocaroo probably not much help

[TOMT][MUSIC][2000s] Emo/Screamo/Pop-punk song

I don't have a lot to go on here so fingers crossed.

There's a song I'm thinking of, very possibly by Taking Back Sunday or a similar sounding band, where at one point in the song all goes quiet and the singer (possibly probably male) sings something like “and I can barely breathe.. and I can barely breathe” and then the song takes off again.

Help appreciated 🤞

[TOMT] [TV?] Hired Killer kills cheating husband instead of cheating wife

The details are really fuzzy but basically it’s this guy who does contract killings and he’s hired by this guy to kill the guy’s ex-wife.

The killer is ready to kill her but then sees the guy who hired him in a car near the house then goes to confront him.

Some dialogue happens where the killer tell the guy to leave for an alibi and the other guy says he wants to make sure he does the job correctly.

The guy who hired him reveals that he cheated on her first and then the killer kills him.

Thank you all!

[TOMT][Youtuber][2015-2017] A youtuber from about 2015-2017 who made witchy/magick videos on youtube

Hi all,

When I was about 15-17 (2015-2017) I was really into witchy stuff and magick. I used to watch a lot of youtubers who made videos about the topic. One of those was a girl in her mid twenties (I’m guessing - she wore a lot of makeup so I couldn’t really tell, but she spoke like she was in her twenties) who had red hair and lots of freckles. She used to make these “witchy outfit summer lookbooks” and I’d watch them for outfit inspiration. Of course she also made a lot of videos relating to witchcraft.

I just remember she dressed bohemian and her really pretty long red hair and freckles and her makeup which was very bold, but in a way that complimented her features (for example she’d put a lot of eyeliner on but she wouldn’t cover her freckles. She’d also sometimes draw designs on her face too but they were so complementary to her face, they were so beautiful).

I’d love to find her again and go on a nostalgia trip and rewatch some of her videos, but I’ve been trying to find her for months now and no luck. Is anyone able to remember/find her?

Thank you so much!
