and yeah, this is lovely. the voice memo recording feels appropriate for the song, although could be great fleshed out as well.

re: verses... totally! sometimes when i'm writing, a chorus just feels corny or cloying depending on the song. and don't get me started on bridges

Verses-only songs are awesome. Case-in-point: this song.

Very interesting concept and beautiful execution. The soft, sparse guitar strums reinforce the intimate atmosphere you'd expect when confronted with the kinds of questions posed by the lyrics. Great work on this one.

Thank you so much for this. I only have a soundcloud, which is mostly for covers over the years but a few originals. I added a link to my profile if you are interested.

Thank you! I am in agreement, sometimes I feel like I am "supposed" to write a chorus or bridge but it just isn't there.

Many thanks, the takes I did after were not as soft/sparse so I'm glad that aspect seems to serve the song well.

Thank you! Yeah, will come back to this someday to see if I like a more "finished" version more.

Thanks so much

I find it fascinating how this group of people here on Weekly Beats sometimes converges on similar ideas for the same week. Sometimes it's "let's do Halloween songs in Spring!", and other times it's "let's record lofi songs with our phones". I've heard a few this week!

Much respect for contributing the big three: music, voice, and lyrics. That makes it a song. And this one hits hard! Thanks for your time!

This is a good listen, especially when you're feeling down and need to check in on yourself.
Don't forget, get enough sleep and drink enough water.

Haha stay tuned for my Halloween song next week (kidding). Thanks so much

Too true, I'll go refill my water (and go to bed soon).

Much appreciated.
