@B yeah not the real ending I just messed up. I'm going to record the faster version properly and see how that sounds.

I put it on the album.
Shortest time between concept and something finished.

I don't know what to name the song please suggest things much love

poor soul

for reference... here's the same recording sped up 20%

this is the very first rough draft of the song about my first day of school. I don't know why I'm so intent on sharing every step of the creative process with everyone but it's helping me get through these weirdo times.

I want this one to have a second half that's entirely instrumental cello + clarinet + piano. have to find a cellist.

Let me know what you think. I'm feeling like this is too slow. Much love!

@Baba newer version is already live. Just listen to it again. I can't end with this song it's important to me that I end with "We're Okay" it's the namesake of the album and then the last line is "we're okay"

@Baba I meant both musically and lyrically in terms of tone. It feels less advanced in its use of harmony and the lyrics are more optimistic.

Whole album I want something sad and happy. Wistful and optimistic.

I think part of what I was unhappy with was the production felt less polished then the other songs on the album. I cut out the solo and added some vibraphone and cleaned up the processing a bit; it feels more at home to me now.

I'm leaning towards keeping it on as an opener. Maybe start and end with happier songs and be more sad in the middle.

@Baba haha no I'm talking about the new song "ode to indifference" about how no one cares about your problems. Click the link to listen
