This sounds so familiar. Not in a “she’s copying someone” way, but in a way that feels nostalgic, like it’s always been here.<br>Idk.

This sounds so familiar. Not in a “she’s copying someone” way, but in a way that feels nostalgic, like it’s always been here.
Idk.

Sounds a bit like "Somewhere Out There" from Feivel Goes West

It also reminds me of the background music in super mario galaxy when you go into rosalina's library storytime thing (idk if anyone will know what I'm talking abt but trust me it sounds similar)

it really reminds me of puff the magic dragon. even kinda has the same themes

The ‘one last time’ part sounds like the song ‘grown up christmas list’!!! But still I luv the song and its lyrics

@Eden Gallagher really late to this thread but I had the same experience with "Level Up" By Sigrid.

@doddleoddle  it really reminds me of Cold Water by Damien Rice which is one of the greatest songs ever written imo. u did GOOD

It reminds me of the 'Up' movie instrumental in the beginning.

yeah!! this feels like i heard it in a dream

yeah!! this feels like i heard it in a dream

It sounds like a song from "American Tail" The song "Somewhere out there"

guys, the instrumental seems like "can't help falling in love" by Elvis, someone agree?

@Eden Gallagher omg I fr thought sign of the times had been out for so much longer than it was

@Lenacluck I was wondering if anyone else thought about that song 😂

Alyssa Crowe low key kind reminded me of on our own by Bruno Major but not a whole lot

@sazswift exactly what I was thinking!!!!!!

@sazswift exactly what I was thinking!!!!!!

Almost reminds me of the Song Cindy Lou Who sang in Jim Carrey's Grinch

I was about to comment the same thing I partly sang along even though this is the first time I'm listening to it

@ainreh It also reminds me of instrumental

@ainreh It also reminds me of instrumental

@doddleoddle I thought the same thing but it's lovely and I really hope you do another instrumental soon I adore doing a ballet warmup to your instrumental when I just need to move around and feel like I'm in control of myself, but I don't have to be perfectly

@sazswift that's what it is! I couldn't figure out what song it sounded like. It's just the first few notes that are the same.

Agreed!! It’s so familiar and yet I can’t pinpoint it at all

Alyssa Crowe it’s got a beatlesque vibe to it, or a 20s song

It sounds like a second act Pixar musical track

It sounds like a second act Pixar musical track

it sounds like a soundtrack of a very sentimental movie.

reminds me of "always more" from the island princess barbie movie .... for som reason

@ArtViD-19 Yes! I was wracking my brain about which Polar Express song it sounded like.

i was the 1k like it was so satisfying lol

i was the 1k like it was so satisfying lol

IT SOUNDS LIKE THROUGH HEAVENS EYES FROM THE PRINCE OF EGYPT

2:05 kind reminds me of a Christmas song like "where are you Christmas"

It reminds me of lullabies and hymns from my childhood. Heartstrings: tugged.

The ending sounds almost note for note like the trombone intro to the film “Boogie Nights”. Not saying Dodie stole it though, I love that song and how she recontextualized  it in this song. Very pretty!

@Eden Gallagher you probably guessed the progression because it’s a I V vi IV haha

It has a similar melody to the song in Polar Express - Believe

it gave me hella polar express vibes melody wise

it gave me hella polar express vibes melody wise

didn't she play this on her Instagram a bit ago?

didn't she play this on her Instagram a bit ago?

the "one last time please" is EXACTLY like always more in the barbie island princess!! yes im saying this as an adult but this was my favorite movie as a child lol

to me the beginning sounds like a nursery rhyme or something

It had music of the night vides in the melody in the beginning

I agree, I've felt that with a few songs (like Sign of the Times by Harry Styles) like I'd heard them before somehow but it was my first listen. I actually guessed the progression of the first couple notes of this right before they happened

“one last time please” sounds like “Instrumental” a bit

“one last time please” sounds like “Instrumental” a bit


this has very big "happy-song-gets-turned-sad-in-the-second-act-of-a-musical" vibes

Yeah it’s like when the “married life” song from Up is super cute and happy then becomes really sad and bittersweet. Music is beautiful🥲

I would kill to hear the happy version!!

A reprise that never had its happy version

Louise NFT yeah but more of a “sad-song-gets-even-sadder-with-a-huge-revelation”

"Instrumental" is the happy song from the first act


I swear this sounds like a centerpoint to all Dodie's songs overtime, which is kinda where the nostaligic feeling is coming from that a couple others have mentioned. The background piano sounds very reminiscent of "Instrumental," the tone makes me think of a mix between "Arms Unfolding"  and "Guiltless," the rhythm is similar "Human," and I don't know why but the message (in my mind) is either an aftermath of "Intertwined" or kinda feels related to "Sick of Losing Soulmates."

This is all very speculative and of course may not be what she's going for at all, that's just me saying what I'm hearing. And what I'm hearing is just Dodie Dodie Dodie Dodie

josie mac I can hear that too, now that you mention it

The Purp Person for me the echoey effect of the vocals and piano makes me think of If I’m Being Honest somehow

The Purp Person i heard- the instrumental part and was so proud of myself for putting that together but OOOOO this is better


you know when a single chord breaks you? the second to last chord literally had me sobbing


You know, I'm not usually one for bittersweet or sombre songs, but dodie has this way of putting so much feeling into her music that I start listening and I am entranced in listening to everything she is saying. Usually by the end of the song I have tears in my eyes, but I feel so much more relaxed and calm. Her music is such a release for me! Thank you so much dodie! We are really blessed to have your music in our lives! I hope everyone is alright and handling quarantine okay! Much love to everyone! :) <3


can we please get an album with all these songs called “alosia”? they’re all so good

From the future: Or we could get an album with all the alosia songs AND MORE called build a problem :))))))))) March 5th everyone MARCH FIIIIIIIIFTH

hihihih yesss!!! it's like you predicted it!

quick, what are the next lottery numbers

I looked up alosia on google and it tells me it's a NAME THAT MEANS THANK YOU GMCJFJDNCKSNC

WELL WELL WELL!!!! This aged beautifully hehe

pleaaaase. I would pay so much for that I swear

id kill for a vinyl with all the published and unpublished works, defo want paint on LP

Geeky Cactus123  a lot of songs in april/august

It's happened. We've all got emotionally attached to these songs

Geeky Cactus123 she explains it in this video actually, but it’s just an abbreviation for: a lot of songs in April

I’m kind of new to her channel and music. What does Alosia mean exactly?

Yes, i mean atleast on youtube so i can click through<br>But i would be very happy if it could be on spotify and other music streaming apps :) D O D I E

Yes, i mean atleast on youtube so i can click through
But i would be very happy if it could be on spotify and other music streaming apps :) D O D I E


it’s almost like “Arms Unfolding” is a response to this song

OH MY GOSH- YOU'RE RIGHT- I just found this song, but I LOVE arms unfolding-

@ss.matthews life connects her songs. its life <3

this song feel very final and inexplicably calm while arms unfolding talks more about a relationship that fought and had a more passionate fire to it,  but it could be really cool if they were connected!

The Common Cold oh my god I couldn’t place what it was thank you

Ezra ooo what if all her songs are connected


and its in the right key to lead perfectly into 'instrumental' !! so beautiful..

omg its perfect! even the melody is similar


to everyone who’s been following dodie since the beginning: has she not just grown into the most beautiful woman! Like I’m feeling so proud right now. ❤


Hey Dodie, I really love your music. I've just dropped you an email, hope you check!


I feel like all of dodie’s songs sound like they belong in a musical.  They’re not the typical musical theatre sound of course, but they all feel like they could be in a movie or as a soundtrack to one big story, or a bunch of little stories and snapshots in a person’s life. Idk man, but I feel like in the future dodie could totally have a musical or soundtrack to a film and it would be perfect and I would watch the HECK out of it.

it's big ya book turned movie soundtrack energy


Im loosing my kitten from a sickness and he is just kindof slowly deteriating- and this song feels really good . I just think its cool that people can interprete a song so differently based on there place at the time


I wanna put a platonic spin on this and say that this is about  two friends. One is very sick, and the other is trying to help them enjoy life. The other learns they don't have long to live so on their last day, they bring their favorite items to their bed and try to make them laugh. I feel like the song would take place after the death, and the friend visits their grave as often as possible. They are reminded of the times they spent with their friend, and tell the friend how their day has gone.

@Olivia Baird I'm happy that this comment helped you. I am so, so sorry about your friend, I hope you know that if you ever need someone to talk to (as cliché as this sounds), just reply to this reply. Stay safe <3

@Olivia Baird I'm happy to have helped. I hope luck favors you. ❤

this comment really touched me, my friend was diagnosed with terminal cancer a few months ago and i always saw this song as a romantic song until he passed away a few weeks ago. with his funeral tomorrow this song has become an entirely different experience very accurate to your interpretation, thank you for commenting and letting me see i’m not alone in this viewing of it.

Hazelbreeze and Robinfeather i love this concept!!


dodie sounds like she's writing for a musical


i was listening to this absentmindedly when that last chorus hit me and tears started streaming down my face. my dog died recently. we had to bury her after spending the day taking care of her as she experienced seizures. this song made the longing in my heart almost unbearable for a second bc i keep wishing i could spend one more night hugging her and telling her i love her.

update: i’ve listened to this every night just to close my eyes and pretend i was holding her. this time, i cried at “will you see me like you did before” because i remembered her staring up at me with her big lovely eyes and i would crouch down and start kissing her eyelids as she would lean into it like she was content. she lost her sight later on in her life but i still dotted little kisses on her eyelids and cheeks.

i miss her so much but i’ve been treating this song like it was a lullaby that would help me face my grief but also remind me of the sweet moments. i always feel better singing along quietly to this with my eyes closed, highly recommend.

i also lost my dog to unexpected seizures im so sorry for your loss ♥


i know that this song may be about two lovers, but in my mind i picture two people. maybe in a train station or in a library. these two simingly strangers were once the best of friends. they had the kind of friendship where they could sit in a quiet room and be content and love the person in that room without saying a word. one has moved on, while the other yearns to feel like sense of friendship again. this person dwells on the past while the other is much more worried about the future.

this is one of the few songs that have made me cry. god, dodie is such an amazing songwriter.


everybody, look at this human and tell me she's not perfect.

she isnt -that is exactly why i appreciate her, shes just genuinely human

@Olivander aha no, n.b. are just my initials, and yes attack on titan-

So, is the n. b meaning non binary? Also, live attack on titans

She isn’t perfect. That’s what makes her brilliant.


kinda obsessed with those midsection chords holy moly


This is not the kind of song to be listening to directly following a breakup, but I can never pass up on Dodie lmao.


i love love LOVE when i hear one of your songs for the first time and it Just Hits Hard Home. like... i know when i try to sing this with my guitar is going to hurt. but the good kind of hurt? it makes sense, i swear. so thanks!


It’s like listening to a little music box play. I closed my eyes while listening to the end and I saw a one of those little ballerina music boxes spinning and I was crying. So good


This song is like a summer’s day. The beginning starts early in the morning, fresh and airy, and then it goes into the day, harsh light and heat, and finally goes back into the night, soft and cool.


dodie is really out here blessing us with these demos

lily yazdi I almost misread this as demons lol


I remember listening to a demo of this demo on your Instagram, and absolutely cried all over the place, wishing it would be longer. Then this comes out, and I am the happiest I've ever been (while crying again)


you should seriously release this and add a string accompaniment it would be so pretty omg


i just experienced watching someone share their last breath in my arms. i felt my whole world shatter as i lost someone i shared a fragment of my heart with. this song reminds me of her so much because i just cant help but to beg to the void that i could just hold her and tell her how much i love her once again.


Absolutely love this one dodie!!!! COMPLETELY in love with the melancholic feel


I mean, this song sounds more like it's talking about an ex, but this is really helping me with the grief of losing my grandfather.  Even though he died 5 years ago, I'm only starting to process my emotions about it and spiral back into the period of grief and depression after someone close to you has passed.  This song is helping me understand my feelings so much, thank you.


“and we can rise with the sun”  jeSUS actual chills throughout this entire song


every single one of these demos feels like it could be a film score and that’s exactly what i need


the difference between how melodic and powerful "somehow step into" is and how monotone and quiet "a world without you" is just got me right in the chest. like oW my HEART. its so good. absolutely heart-wrenching. ugh i love it. <3


Sometimes I like to pretend that this song isn’t about a bad breakup but rather a family broken up by divorce. This reflects the want for a family to be together for one more day just pretending nothing has changed.


these demos are so raw,, like the emotion in them- it just hits different than other songs, i love it


1:10 to 1:20 makes me cry everytime. You know how dodie talks about falling in love with songs? Like jewel and novels? That's how I feel about this song ❤


This hurts so much to listen to. Not in a “i want to spend one last time with you” sort of way. More in a “why don’t i feel like i want to spend one last time with you?” Because i loved him so so so much. But we’re just so bad for each other. I want to feel like i want to spend one last time with him and in a sense, I do. But with everything that’s happened, I’d rather not. I known i sound like im all over the place but i just wish i dont sound like i dont love him. More like i wish we were versions of ourselves that made me wish i wanted to open my arms to you again because i want both of us to feel how good it is to be loved without suffocating each other. I want us to be that person for each other.


it’s only been a few second listening to this but all of my muscles have relaxed, my mind feels clear for the first time in a while and i’m feeling so much love for dodie, oh how i’d love for her to be able to know how much her music has helped me

Johanna Plöckl i hope everything from here on out goes well for you, dodie has the power to cure so much hurt, and it’s okay! have a wonderful day/night

I feel the same! It was a weird, sad and stressful day. And dodie is curing everything! I hope it's for you also so good for the soul!

Sorry for the bad english lmao


Excuse me this is the best song you've ever written.


Really hoping for an “alosim” because these songs are getting me through quarantine 🙌

Then-
alosia (2)
alosij
alosij
alosia (3)
alosis
alosio
alosin
And finally, alosid


This should def be a singleeee. My heart literally needs this. Love u dodie.


good idea: listen to this over and over sobbing, bad idea: send this to ur ex in a hope he will take u back (he won’t)

Honestly same tho, gotta stay strong tho 🥺✌

ouch that hit a little too close to home

guys i didn’t send it to him, i practiced uke and sang lofi song about a breakup instead😭😭 stay strong yall xxx

No!! No texting ex’es y’all, we love ourselves too much for that 💜💜💜

the bad idea was the first thing i though of doing when i heard this

send it to someone you need to say goodbye - then cry because this actually happened


the moment when she started harmonizing, IT JUST HIT YOU RIGHT IN THE FEELS.


this. this is why i love dodie. this song is so raw that even though its so quiet, it speaks volumes. it’s different and unique and familiar and gahhhh i just love it.


wait this needs to be a real studio version. like NOW.


getting emotionally attached to these demo's so my tears would know I'm the main character


this gives me "even if it's a lie" by matt maltese vibes

I'm crying in the club currently

I love this so much

@dray that's actually how I heard about it!! thank u so much tho, (I've been following her since 2017)

idk if u know but she did a cover of even if its a lie!! just lettin u know if u like that song!!

oh YES i completely agree!!! also ur pfp is 10/10

@rhys jones ofc I'm social distancing lmao I don't hate humanity (ik it's a joke)


this feels like the type of song you’d hear during a really sad song in a romcom or during like a cinematic time sequence, like following someone’s life throughout how things could have been, or how they are. is that English? I don’t know


The whole Zelda's-Lullaby-esque theme has made me feel like WE broke up and I feel nostalgic about a Sunday morning that never happened to two people that don't exist because they've never met.

Genius, terrifying song.


okay now i’m crying at 7pm on a thursday night so thank u dodie


It would be so cool if after the “it’ll take a night with you and we can rise with the sun” it broke into full orchestral chorus and then back to the quiet piano “but until then...” still sounds beautiful and elegant just what I thought when I heard it :)


Dodie’s demos are honestly getting me through quarantine


This is just so good. Thank you, Dodie. My quarantine is a little less lonely.


a month later and this still has me in tears. this song is so familiar and warm and perfect in every way. love you so so much dodie, you create so much joy in this community and we support every part of you:)


This feels like such a classic. Like “I can’t help falling in love with you” after the relationship ends. I’m absolutely obsessed💛


This sounds like one of those sad songs you'd hear as a kid and not fully understand until you're older and then one day the lyrics just hit you like a truck


I can already hear the beautiful strings she has planned for this incredibly nostalgic melody


This is so beautiful it hurts my stomach to listen to and my whole soul aches, you are so talented and I hope to hear so much more of you forever🥺❤


I can’t wait for her to become an amazing musical composer. If I don’t get to watch an entire musical written by Dodie my life will feel incomplete!


this is like the song in the middle of the musical where all hope is lost but then things get better I promise


this song hit me. over the past year, I dated someone who was one of my best friends. It just wasn't an opportune time for either of us, so it makes sense why it didn't last. we're still close friends, but now there's some unspoken awkwardness between us. I really wish everything could go back to being normal, because they mean so much to me--but I feel like I can't express my feelings to them anymore without it getting awkward. I would love for one more day of normality between us. I miss them.

@Zoë L this comment warmed my heart, oh my goodness. Thank you so much for your kind words, it really does mean the world to me. Much love from Texas ❤

sam. Never be scared to express yourself to someone. You’re close- what’s the worse that’ll happen? They don’t feel the same/don’t care? Then that just means they don’t DESERVE to be in your life. I hope you find the words to use and talk to them :) love from Cali

Michael G thanks dude 💛 also I love your profile pic!!

Abbey A. This is exactly me too!! I still have feelings for them, but of course I would never ask him to get back together because I wonder if he’s found someone new. It’s a painful situation because I know things are never going to be the same but I really wish they could be. Some days are better than others. It’s at least good to know that I’m not alone in this experience!! I’m hoping the best for you and him, and that everything will turn out okay in the end (it always does)! Much love! 💛

Sydney Uliasz it does hurt, and I’m sure it will take time to heal, even with the knowledge that it might not have been the right situation. I’m just trying to think of what I can learn from this situation, and how I can grow as a person from the experience. Stay strong! I am wishing you all the best!! 💛

Mazed it really does suck!! I’m wishing the best for you, and hoping that time will help and heal! 💛

Clara Boe thank you!! 💛 it might just take more time and patience for everything to get back to some sense of normalcy, so I’ll just have to wait it out for awhile I guess! :)

Aver Clane that’s true! I’m just scared that they’ve moved on and that it would just make it more awkward to tell them how I feel if they don’t share the same feelings anymore 🤧

Going through an incredibly similar situation. I know we shouldn't get back together and I would never ask him because it's so much better for us both to be apart. We're still very close and we have a lot of fun, but some moments can be painful and it becomes clear that we sometimes do miss the intimacy we once shared. Obviously, I'm thankful for the time he and I shared, but I do wish the awkwardness could be avoided. Texting can be rough, facetime and functions aren't always so bad, and thankfully memes are always good haha.

this almost exact thing happened to me this year with a close friend, it wasn’t right for me but it still hurt.

I can't express what I wish you. But for sure it's just the best. Quite similar feelings, 8 months since we took separate ways in life. To this day I'm standing between her and 'our' group of friends. Just hurts man.

I hope for you (and i speak from experience) that it will somehow go back to normal. Of course things will be a bit different but if both of you care about the friendship there will come a time where youll be comfortable with each other again

sam. Honestly, when it comes to that- just say how you feel because at the end of the day, we only have one life. I’m sure your ex feels the same way and so the longer you wait and stay quiet, the more awkward it will be- and the more annoyed you’ll be at yourself for not speaking up sooner.


I was reading the comments about how this feels like such a dodie song, and so  just wanted to put it out there that this would make such an incredible interlude on an album, because it has that centerpoint quality .


I know this is meant to be about a relationship but it really connects with the situation at the moment. I’m a third year university student and because I’m high risk I had to move out without saying goodbye. That ‘one last time please’ hit so hard


i just found out something extremely disturbing about my family history and had a panic attack. i needed a dodie song. when you started to harmonize i couldn’t hold back my tears. this stopped me from self harming for tonight.

I'm really really proud of you for staying strong for that night and even if you have relapsed since then, I'm still proud of you for being alive and you are so loved and I hope you find help ❤❤❤


20 seconds in and I'm sobbing. Absolutely beautiful and magical ❤


Just started listening and I’m already ready to cry wtf-<br>Edit: I finished the song and I can confirm I am now in full on tears aaa-

Just started listening and I’m already ready to cry wtf-
Edit: I finished the song and I can confirm I am now in full on tears aaa-

A Singular Blob puddle of tears here also

It's not Dodie unless the front of your shirt is soaking wet after her song 😅


This is so gorgeous. I love how dodie is still able to create art about that deep indescribable feeling for things (especially at 1:00)  in your past but also has been focusing on appreciating the present too, and that ability to do both things has been showing in her music and in the hi 20 year old video. I think as we grow that’s a really important thing for everyone to think about & work on.


dodie: [sad solem beautiful singing]
also dodie: hEY

dodie: [sad solem beautiful singing]
also dodie: *hEY*


I feel like I just listened to a hug, and the emotion contrasts it so spectacularly I feel like whatever I thought about music just got a little wider. Love it x


The fact that dodie exists is the most comforting thing in my life. This song is the perfect blend of melancholy and hope.


I really underappreciated this one when it came out. this is stunning


I'm in love with the beautiful subtleties of your voice accompanied with this almost gospel chordal progression. I can really hear the heartache in your writing and connect with your music!


dodie i really truly honestly adore every single demo you've released for alosia PLEEASE make them ALL real


i received my album today and this is on the alosia cd.. it makes my heart ACHE and i love it so much. truly magical. thank you so much


La la land vibes be shakin quakin like eggs and bacon

edit: wow thanks kids i have nothing else to say except i have a single dodie cover on my channel go fuckin nuts on it

this comment better not be underappreciated


Man you have progressed so far from when you started and your voice is as beautiful as ever, keep up the good work 👍


Dodie this song is gorgeous. I really hope you publish this in an album sometime


god , such beautiful melodies and lyrics, you’re going to end up writing, scoring and being on a film soundtrack one day, and i can’t wait for that day 💖


Ughhh how is it that you just keep making these AMAZING songs. Honestly Cool Girl is still my fav, same as you but this song along with Let Go are my very very close second. Never stop making things! You are such a gift!


This is so nostalgic....i love it so much. It makes me think of just a field of grass, a pink sky, the sun setting and two lesbian couples cuddling in the middle of the field. I love it so much i sob over it sometimes <3


PERFECTION OVERLOAD<br>this is so moving and nostalgic and beautiful -- we love you so much dodie!!! 💙💙🌠🌠

PERFECTION OVERLOAD
this is so moving and nostalgic and beautiful -- we love you so much dodie!!! 💙💙🌠🌠


I’ve never felt so involved in a song. I feel like she’s looking into my soul as she sings this. A true masterpiece ❤


This is an amazing song with great chords it sounds so perfect! i would love for this to be on the next album xx


This song could’ve just been “one last time” but the added please makes it so special in a strange nostalgic kind of way


My uncle passed away two days ago very unexpectedly and rapidly due to covid. This song has everything ive been feeling and everything ive wanted to tell him. I know this is a love song for a relationship but it feels so relevant to my current situation. Thank you x


dodie’s music just hits different. every damn time


i need all of these demos to be put in an album that i can get on spotify or apple music pls that would be amazing


two lovers are sitting on a bench overlooking the city (similar to "waste of a lovely night" setting from la la land) and they've just broken up. one of the people realises this is the last time they'll see the city with this person so they cry, big heaving tears but the other person comforts them. this song plays. the swelling of the crying person's chest in time to the swelling of the music. the scene ends with the crying person lying on their now ex-partners shoulder.

And then one of the partners fades away so then there’s only one, all alone.

ellie someone should edit this song over that scene 😭

...sooooo like... the end of la la land??

this hurt to read in the best way possible

aaa i'm sorry guys listen to happy dodie songs

ellie aaghhh this is just what happened to me 2 months ago when i broke up with someone (without the view of a city haha) and you just put this memory perfectly into words 🥺


God this is my absolute favourite from Alosia, that melody will both comfort and haunt me


This is my favorite thing you've ever written and I'm just... I'm... just...               Thanks dodie.


Can Dodie write a musical please? ...I would love that. Please and Thank you very much.


I cried like a baby listening to this, thank you. I needed to get it out♡


Look how she can make such perfect songs with simple chords


I love this so much. I feel this on such a spiritual level and the whole tone and musicality of the song makes me nostalgic and yearn for what I'm missing. Also those harmonies are so wonderful. I'm crying now


I love this song, it's so subtly bittersweet. I could listen to your soft songs like this all day long.


This is so beautiful!!! The harmonies on your songs are always great and the lyrics feel so meaningful!


dodie oh my GOD. achingly beautiful. its got that tinge of sad nostalgia you feel in randy newman's music ow ow ow i love it (also those CHORDS the tone of the keyboard the harmonies the LYRICS excellent content)


I love how happy you look when singing cool girl, Seeing you enjoy a song makes me enjoy it a million times more x


I need this to be a full song so I can listen to it on repeat on spotify


this gives me chills and makes me feel so calm. your voice is truly amazing and one of a kind.


I’m crying at this oh my god. Absolutely beautiful. Dodie did it again!!


One last time please
Like you're mine again
Just for a moment
Can we pretend that nothings changed at all?
Just one last time please?
We can say goodbye again
Just for a moment say it's not the end
When you see me like you did before
Oh just one night more
and then I'll close the door
Somehow step into a world without you
But one last time please
I know it's said and done
I'll take a night with you
and we can rise with the sun
But till then please be mine one time again

The lyrics are in the description my dude


I just went through a break up. This is the most beautiful and painful thing I've heard so far in my life. Dodie.. damn. Thanks for the music. It means a lot to a lot of us


i cry every time thank u dodie for ur music


Thank you so much. This is so incredibly beautiful and emotional and impactful and... woah. This is lovely <3


Fantastic, Dodie! I like how you put all the weight on this extremely slow tempo... as a big contrast to your other songs... which is very nice too!


This gives me "Places We Won't Walk" vibes and i'm here for it


This is so beautiful. It holds so much meaning and you can really hear the emotion in her voice. I've heard a few of Dodie's songs and they're all beautiful. I hope she knows how talented she is.


dodie really out here giving us all the disney princess vibes during quarantine


This is still one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard in my whole entire life. I feel so calm but at the same time I'm about to cry


My brother mentioned it gave him "The Last Five Years" - I'm still hurting vibes. I couldn't agree more, and really explains why this is my fav alosia song... 💔❤❤❤❤


the harmonies in this are so beautiful, wow, the song is so gentle and soft, it feels like a lullaby, oh god, i'm really crying again aren't i


This made me want to cry tears of sadness and happiness at the same time. How do you come up with such beautiful music Dodie? You're so gifted.


The musical composition... immaculate. The use of minor chords... perfection


She’s been dropping classics and all timers lately 🔥🔥


This song is so beautiful. It moves something so deep in me. I can't explain, but I'm so thankful for it!


I swear, if this isn't gonna be on Spotify asap...


This is beautiful. So smooth and is like food for my brain with all the different chord progressions


You made me cry Dodie, you're so brilliant with sharing your emotions. Thank you oxo


This straight up feels like it needs to be in a musical ❤amazing x


I feel like this is somehow connected to Instrumental.

My interpretation is that in Instrumental, she looks back to all the memories he/she had together, all the fun days where they would laugh and have each other which makes them both feel like they have it all together. In One Last Time, Please, both of them have no more connection to each other and like a flame of their love just died. He/she remembers the moments they had which wants him/her to go back and just be clueless of what will happen to them in the future. "One last time please" can show a lot of sincerity that they will do it for the last time and after that, they will (try to) let go, knowing there's nothing left to do.


The fact that dodie can make something so soft and simple yet so strong and powerful at the same time... man her music is the definition of the best oxymoron ever❤❤

I'm sorry, although I agree with your comment, I lost it when I read "dodge" 😅🤣 sending love as well <:


your voice is so soothing yet i'm filled with emotion in all your songs :')


Omg I’ve been waiting for this!!! I remember when you posted a guitar demo of this on Twitter and I literally couldn’t stop listening to it ❤


for me this feels like wanting to go back to school just for one more day to say goodbye

Like a wanting to relive any of those days that passed so quickly agian but mean everything now

gwendolyn may it’s okay, I’m emotional lol.

I read this and just started crying. I’m crying so hard rn lol


this is my favorite dodie song ever. it's like a big warm hug from someone you miss.


I hope you're gonna release the final version of this song on all platforms soon! It's delicate and sad, so relatable, beautiful! Thanks :)


these videos are one of the major things getting me through quarantine ily do die thanks


The last line “but till then please be mine one time again” reminds me of dodie’s old song Down when she sings “watch them laugh/love (never figured out which one it was) while I stay in the rain”. Idk if anyone will know what I’m talking about but it just always reminds me of that which I looove.


God. I keep coming back to this and it breaks my heart each and every time. It’s so beautiful, so perfect !


like three seconds in and my heart already hurts, how does this always happen?? magic


ah dodie I'm crying this song is so beautiful. I saw someone else say it, but this songs feels nostalgic. wow my heart


Hi dodie, this is beautiful and it brought me to tears. You as such an amazing musician and I look up to you so much. Keep doing what you're doing, you're amazing and you're helping so many people with your music. Ily.


i love that this sounds like “instrumental”. the piano in that song always makes me emo and now that it has words to it i love it even more💖


thank u dodie :,) i just had a panic attack and i rarely get those and i was freaking out cause i didn't know what to do and i opened youtube, ready to search up what to do when you're panicking and your video was first on my recommended. i accidentally clicked on it, but your voice is so incredibly soothing that i can breathe normally again. ❤


this song literally reached out and touched my soul. i hope this song gets released, but if not, i will forever enjoy listening to it on youtube


im so ready for the release of this<br>the timing couldnt be more perfect honestly

im so ready for the release of this
the timing couldnt be more perfect honestly


Okay....so I listened to the song and the first time thought the second line was "like your mind, again" and I think that really changed my entire perspective on the song. This is really sad and I don't even know why I am commenting this, but it makes me think of when I was really depressed and this just paints a picture of begging your own self for one more night. one more reason. one thing to make you not give it all up. It really just hit me so differently. Just wanting your mind to be yours again.

If anyone sees this and relates, just know that you are loved and everything will get better. Watch some more of Dodie's videos she has a lot on mental health! I am by no means perfect but I am so happy I didn't end it when I wanted to. Please. Your mine WILL be yours again at some point. I love you.


There are some Brian Wilson vibes in these chord changes.  I love this dodie.  Thank you.


dodie attacks me in the way that i haven’t seen my ex in a month and I Still Think About Him like we were still together yesterday. oop

It takes some time. It'll pass. Keep reminding yourself of the things that are better about being apart


Dodie, you amazing me in every song that I listen... Is like, i feel calm when you start singing. You calm my mind. So thank you for that. I would really love and appreciate (if you have the time) to explain how you do the harmonys, the edits and production. Thank you, again!


Words can't explain how much I loved this. Can't wait for the full song.


this is literally so similar a poem i wrote the other day- enjoy if anyone sees this lol:
One last kiss
I remember asking her for one last kiss
Just so i could savour the taste of her lips tasting mine
Her lips: sweet like wild blackberries
My lips: asking, as if going on a diet yet begging your chocolate cake for one last slice
Just to feel her arms round my waist
Her hands running through my hair
Her breath on my neck
I remember telling her i’ll wait for her
Just so i could trick myself into believing promises last forever
Despite time changing
And people growing
Like a small child promising to never grow
Yet like small children
We are unable to hold the eternal hands of time to pause
No matter how hard we try


Again and again how am I supposed NOT to get attached ???? All the demos have album material


This one hit me in the gut. Thank you. I loved it. You’re amazing. Keep going.


the tune of this one is probably one of my favorite of yours ever, it's so nostalgic and lullaby-y wow i'm tearing up


man i really mean it with my whole entire heart that every single song dodie has given us during alosia has been gold but this one, this one Hits


this is so beautiful, and it sounds like a memory ♡


"somehow step into a world without you" is one of the saddest lyrics that I've listened to in a while


You know it’s a good song when you listen to it and it gets hard to breathe


The melody is like from some beautiful lullaby, I love it 🥰


Love this! Also feel it would be so beautiful with strings, like some soft violin in there 🎻


You've added Instrumental into this, I can hear it. It sounds like the end of a musical, it's beautiful!


I LOVE THESE DEMOS AND ALSO THE CHUNKY HEADPHONES<br>btw I love you dodie! you inspire me to make my own stuff : )

I LOVE THESE DEMOS AND ALSO THE CHUNKY HEADPHONES
btw I love you dodie! you inspire me to make my own stuff : )


this was one of those songs that I got to the end of and just thought through tears "god I fucking love music"


Dodie this is a treat. Honestly, it's so beautifull it makes me cry 💔


I did not expect to cry at 10:20 AM-<br>But damn, this hit right into my feels and it's wonderful. ❤

I did not expect to cry at 10:20 AM-
But damn, this hit right into my feels and it's wonderful. ❤


i froze. this is so beautiful. emotions were so overwhelming.


this has 12:48 am vibes and I'm here for it<br>also i love you dodie! your content inspires mine :)

this has 12:48 am vibes and I'm here for it
also i love you dodie! your content inspires mine :)


Her voice is soul-destroyingly good. This shit can make me cry with alarming speed.


this melody has strong lullaby vibes and 10/10 would be lulled to sleep by dodies gentle voice any day


This feels like a sweet lullaby from my childhood, despite its sad meaning. I love it. Thank you. Also I didn't even notice that it was on a different channel; it's all the same to me haha


oh my... this is beautiful. i really needed this demo, because this is how im feeling right now and in a way this has given me some clarity about how to move on. thank you dodie <3


dodie this song is amazing it reminds me of songs from miss saigon, such an amazing play!!


explain to me how this song IMMEDIATELY made me start crying. this is so beautiful well done


hello this song finally made me cry after trying to hold back from stress here at home,,,thank you dodie I needed this


this is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard. i'm not even exaggerating, i want this to be on repeat forever in my brain. thank you for creating this <3


I've been waiting for a full version of this forever!!! Definitely worth the wait :)


I really love this one.<br>That little run at the end of "close the door~" really hurt me for some reason and I love it

I really love this one.
That little run at the end of "close the door~" really hurt me for some reason and I love it


Really hope you release these on Spotify to be honest! You could just release it under the album title: ALOSIA (as you mentioned in the video). Hope that you do this as I'd love to listen these Demos using Spotify (Music Quality, No Ads, Convenience etc.) But I completely understand if not, You Do You Boo!!


This is such a musical song, like a song someone would sing after being ghosted or something like that


this is giving me chills!! absolutely beautiful <3


I have this feeling like you perfectly describe my present life with each new song you upload. I don't know how it happens, but it's magical, thank you.


this hit so hard dodie. this demo is the first to have given me such a strong reaction. i want this to be fully released so badly


dodie really does have a habit of writing songs that make me sob


this sounds like an ost from a disney fairytale


this is one of my favorite songs she has ever written oh my god!! praying that this will be one of the ones she chooses to release!!!


It's funny how the world works. Last night I said goodbye to someone I loved and this song appears the next day. It really is calming, bittersweet, and yet makes you have hope for a better world out there I feel. Thank you Dodie. <3


I was feeling totally fine but Dodie had to come along and make me feel emotions again...


please put this on spotify i need this on repeat!!!!


Your voice makes me feel okay, and I can’t really say that about most creators... you mean the world to me dodie ❤


Your harmonies are literally magical! I keep trying to understand them, but they are so well crafted and blended together it's almost like they are made only to listen to and enjoy, and I'm not complaining 🥰


This is beautiful, it has a very nostalgic feeling to it


One Last Time is beautiful. You're hearing sweeping strings, brass pads etc behind this right? Beautiful words too. ❤


I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you've put the words and chords up!


how do you construct these chords in such a beautiful way?? you made it so magical where did you LEARN TO DO THIS

It was hard to get from that Eb and Gm back to C again ngl


This has "even if it's a lie" kind of vibes ❤ I love this


ugh i love your voice more than anything and i’m so curious about how it would sound if you let go of every ounce of jaw tension


This lowkey sounds like it could be in a musical and I’m so here for it


when you posted a snippet of this back in december i immediately fell in love with it,, thank you for posting it !!!! i grow so proud of you each day


please put all of these demos on spotify🥺


dodie, i so love you. i thank the universe for bringing u and knowing u in my lifetime 🤧


Somehow I'll step into, a world without you.<br>That just ruins me. Beautiful song.

Somehow I'll step into, a world without you.
That just ruins me. Beautiful song.


Ok is it just me or does dodies voice when singing either sound really adorkable or just super sad and just makes you wanna cry with her like. TT^TT ugh how.


I can’t believe my favorite dodie song has only about 270k views,,, I just find this song so beautiful ^^’


This honestly feels like it needs to be on a new up & coming musical soundtrack. Like an indie/alt coming of age musical.


Im glad Dodie has made it big ... have been following her for a long time now


I’ve never felt the feelings in this song, but man does it make me cry in heartbreak


Just gorgeous, I'm in tears 💕 thank you so much for your music 😘


This is so incredible and unique sounding. Your voice and harmonies sound gorgeous UGHH


this is so good and sad and I can feel it so perfectly, I’m really melancholic right now


these chord progressions remind me of if I’m being honest and i love it


this gives me vibes where one partner has to leave for good. but they don't want to say goodbye, so they both go to sleep and the other person has to leave without waking the other up, to not face any pain. as the partner has almost made their way down the hallway, the other partner steps out into the hallway, waiting for the person who's leaving to turn back and look at them. but they know they can't so they don't. and they never see each other in the years to come.


i’ve been waiting for you to release a longer version since it was originally posted on ig, i absolutely adored the little snippet and i’m so so happy there’s more, ily 🥺


This is probably my favourite one ever, it's so soft and gentle.


You know it's gonna be extra sad when it's on the piano


What a wonderful artist you are. I enjoy everything you do.


goooooosh, your voice with an organ sounds so beautiful! It always sounds beautiful, but idk why the organ just hits different.


Some of your recent songs (like this one and just fine) have a very musical-theatre feel, and it makes me want to write a musical based on your music. I definitely would if you let me.


listening to dodie's music makes me feel safe


Absolutely beautifully emotional. Love it


whenever i return to this song i find myself tearing up just a little bit. it's such a beautiful, bittersweet song and i cannot wait for it to be on my spotify :) 40 days lads


i feel like this could be in a musical and the song "intermission" from you could be like a reprise thing-- because some of the chords sounded the same [: love it


I’ve listened three times in a row and I could listen to it forever and never get sick of it


This song is absolutely beautiful and I cry ugly Everytime I hear the first 5 seconds. I've been following you for years now and your songs always touch my heart, brain and soul. Thank you so much.


Not gonna lie, I absolutely love your voice. You have earned a subscriber today! Cheers!


AhHhhHh I cant stop listening to this gorgeous song!!! Im just sitting on my bed sobbing to this song. It’s so beautiful! ❤


This literally sounds like a Disney song


This song breaks my heart in a million different ways and yet I can't stop coming back to it lol


So I read One Day after seeing it on your instagram. Finished it yesterday and listening to this today and I cant help but ache. I’m tearing up. This is beautiful dodie.


Listening to this imagining a friend leaving and not a lover. Thank you dodie for comforting me with this.


I honestly needed this so bad; thank you for sharing 💕


literal CHILLS dodie u r a music genius i love ur art sOOooOoo much


i’m completely drowning in this song and i would’ve have it any other way.


It's like you reached right into my soul for my emotions and spread them out on paper and played them as music


The very first notes with the instrumental just wash over me in the most comforting way. I had a good little cry to this just when I needed it.


I absolutely love this ! Am I allowed to cover it ? <3


the amount of tears i've shed over this song in the past 10 minutes is uncanny


this music flows the way nostalgia comes and goes into my conscience, the ups and downs and odd feelings in the middle, swelling and growing quieter, melancholy seeping with hope, this is absolutely beautiful


im so excited for her new album TToTT DODIE UR AMAZING idk why but every song she puts out ALWAYS sums up how my life and where I am and how im feeling into words ;A; <3333


i was in love with my best friend for a while and we loved dodie so much. We had made plans to go to her tours together sometime. We fell out of touch and don’t talk anymore and this song just makes me think of how i just want one last moment with her


This hits somewhere deep in my soul and resonates in my bones


I am obsessed with this. It sounds so familiar despite being nothing like anything I’ve heard before. It sounds simultaneously like a lullaby & like a song at the end of a scene in a musical. Love you so much Dodie


can you please put this demo on spotify, i love love love the stripped/rawness of it


This totally broke my heart. A minute in and this big man cried like a baby🥺. I love this soooo much!!!!


love this . kinda makes me want to go back in time & fix a lot of the relationships i ruined for myself. idk why i do, im still not sure if im blaming myself for others mistakes or not. ive lost a lot of friends in the past year or so. i hope i can get my shit together soon. 💖


do you ever listen to a song and feel breathless? listening to this i felt fully consumed by the melody and beautiful harmonies. kinda feels like you’re drowning in a good way, it’s cathartic and the emotions are being released all at once. thanks dodie for this masterpiece once again :)


I saw this video on my feed and proceeded to listen to it at least 6 times before making this comment.

I mean how can you put so much emotion into one song that you made in a day. It's honestly astonishing.


This has phantom of the opera vibes it’s beautiful ❤


girl you made me feel things I didn't even know I still felt


It's a song that needs to play behind a beautiful emotional scene in a cute movie.


Thank you Dodie. I lost one of my best friends over summer (2019) but me and her went to see your show In Chicago at Thalia hall. I have the grey party tattoos sweater and whenever I miss her the most I wear it because that concert was one of the best times we got to have. Thank you Dodie.


I instantly just went to play this on piano after hearing it and I don't think I'll ever stop now


i cannot even come up with anything other than i love you miss dodie, this is absolutely gorgeous thank you for being one of my main inspiration


You are an absolute inspiration, Dodie.<br>NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC, PLAS.

You are an absolute inspiration, Dodie.
NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC, PLAS.


I know at this point no one will see this, but I just feel like I need to write out the meaning this song has for me.

 In February of this year my school announced that it was permanently closing. It was a private school with preschool-12th grade that had gone bankrupt do to a lot of bad long term financial decisions etc, etc. Then covid hit only a month later. We found out that what we thought was going to be our last few months together Junior year was being taken away too. Everyone frantically tried to find a school that was somewhat right for them, but everyone seemed to be heading somewhere different for our senior year. This was the song I listened to on repeat when at the end of May we came back to the school one last time to drop off textbooks and sort of say goodbye if we wanted. The familiar place felt so strange to drive by empty, with our school's big sign being covered with the new school that had bought the space. our home there was gone, and left empty without truly getting to say goodbye. This probably sounds so dramatic all over just a school, but it was a school that had changed so many people's lives and experience with learning/socialization. We were all trying to get over it since the day they told us, but it was so hard to step into a world that wasn't our little home with all our friends and classmates. But that's what this song is for me. A desperate deep, longing pain for the future we had taken for granted that was suddenly pulled out from under our feet.

In the end everything ended up being pretty okay though. But no matter what this song will always hurt and always remind me what it was like to be crushed by unpredictable change. I think I'll always look back to this time after graduating this year and feel this way to an extent. I still sometimes disassociate while I'm at school or just out of no where. My mind is pretty unwilling to accept this as the truth I guess. Things are getting better though, and will continue to, I know for a fact.

and if by some chance she sees this, dodie this song really helped me settle into that reality and just allowed myself to feel what I was feeling in it's entirety (if that makes any sense). Thank you.


I've been waiting to hear the rest of this since you uploaded a little snippet on Instagram and oh my god it's so much better than I ever dreamed <br>So many tears

I've been waiting to hear the rest of this since you uploaded a little snippet on Instagram and oh my god it's so much better than I ever dreamed
So many tears


"for a moment, can we pretend nothing has changed at all" i'm in tears.


Honestly, you caught me in the section where you play an Eb (just one night more). That part was simply awesome, actually I think it was my favourite part of the song.


always count on dodie to make the most relatable songs on earth gosh


hey dodie, i know there are plenty of people venting in your comments already but i just wanted to say this. i invited someone from my childhood to see your dallas show with me in september, and we grew really close after that. a few months ago he completely cut off contact with me, which i assume is because he started seeing a girl. i've been feeling down because we never got to talk it out, but this song gave me the closure i didn't get with him. thank you for writing what we need to hear, it's always surprising to me just how similar we all are. <3 xx

Im glad this could give you that closure you were needing. To many smiles to come


this song really is one of them songs that just hits different, its so beautiful


this is so delicately melancholy yet hopeful. it tickles my heart <3


This song is absolutely delicious and cinematic. For some reason, the "one last time, please" bit kind of reminds me of a slower Where Are You Christmas, Forever and Ever in Winnie the Pooh, and also a slower and sadder wedding march. I feel like these associations help it feel familiar and also creates tinges of sadness on top of the message the song already presents. Anyway, it's brilliant and I could already see it in an indie flick in my head and I'm sold. 👏


how many times can I listen to this song before it stops breaking my heart? I'm starting to think the limit doesnt exist. <br>Please please please publish on Spotify...

Please please please publish on Spotify...


45 seconds in and trying not to cry as it already makes me think of my ex partner and ex friends. Also a family member who I lost at rhe same time.


This song feels like dancing in an enchanted forest by fairy light in the night time and suddenly feeling the magic wear away


Hey urm ive practically fallen in love with this demo and want to learn it and play it for this thing at school. Is it okay of you send me the sheet music or something some not only know the chord but the rhythm and everything else? Thank you x


i've played this at least 5 times in a row this is art.


Strong musical theatre vibes off of this. I love it!


this is so beautiful and soft and like comforting the song feels like a warm hug


it’s funny. if I listen to this enough on repeat, I can make myself cry.


holy shit dodes i started crying 20 seconds in i relate to this SO much ohmygod i hope you finish this one because holy shit im in love-


OW. <br>Please please please release this, I love it so much. It makes me want to gouge my eyes out in pain, but in a good way 😂

OW.
Please please please release this, I love it so much. It makes me want to gouge my eyes out in pain, but in a good way 😂


being this early can only be but a blessing just to hear her


stunning as always. she never fails to make me cry.


The line "we can say goodbye again, just for a moment, say it's not the end" hit me right in the heart. I was already crying and then those lines just punched me in the chest. It's a beautiful song though 10/10 would cry to again.


This gives me vibes of Even If it's a Lie. So beautiful


This one has brought me to tears. I don't know why, but I feel as if I needed to hear this.


Don’t mind me, I’m just crying in a corner because it’s so beautiful and my little heart can’t handle it


Its 1am and the rain is pouring outside while listening to this beautiful song. This is actually such a mood


Well that made me cry, which I generally don't so recently 😂 massive musical theatre vibes 💛


i could t sleep but i’m sleepy now thank you dodie :)


I think this is my favourite alosia demo. idk just something about the melody and harmories and lyrics just hit me RIGHT in the feels


You’ve always been able to melt me thank you


firstly, this is absolutely gorgeous, and secondly, it sounds like it should be from a musical which is SO wonderful. I’ve loved all the songs from alosia so far but this one and Cool Girl have been my favourites so far I think! they just make me Feel Some Things my gosh


This hits different after your heart has been broken:(


i cant even begin to explain how much i luv this song. If this was released just like 3 weeks ago, i would have seen it in a completely different light. I luv every one of dodie's songs, even ones i can't directly relate to, she finds a connection to how i feel some how.


Hey Dodie I love you so much all these songs are getting me through quarantine 💗


could we please have a piano tutorial? this song is so beautiful, I'm sure some would love to learn it


Thank you for adding the chords in the description so I don’t have to try and figure it out myself 🤍


this reminds me of a beautiful music box, and makes me feel melancholic and nostalgic for a fairytale


dodie you better record this one bc it's undoubtedly the best demo so far


@Doddleoddle Could you please give us the chord progression for this song its so freaking beautiful! You're so very inspiring! love you <3


This reminds me of the first few months after my first love and I broke up. There was a moment when I went and begged to be like we were and to try and fix things. This sounds like the begging in my soul during that time. He's still a dear friend, and we've both moved on since then, meeting our own lovely partners, but just because something happened in the past doesn't mean that feeling never happened. This song reminds me of love and hurt and nostalgia, but also closure, and a contentment with how things just have to end sometimes. Brava Dodie. You always know which heartstrings to pull.


my heart hurts listening to this. yet i still come back to watch it over and over again as this song makes it hurt so sweetly. it throws my brain back to a time when the world was innocent and young. it surrounds me in a blanket of safety and tucks in the covers. letting me know i am cared for and loved despite everything that seems to be piling on right now. thank you for writing this dodie. i may not have taken it how you intended to write it but i can never thank you enough for this masterpiece.


this might sound really weird but I can only write when I listen to your songs...
like i'm not even joking I get a huge writer's block then I listen to your songs and bam!
They speak to a part of me I'm not very in tune with (my emotions lol).


Me and my boyfriend just went on a break a few hours ago... this song hits a deep spot in my heart

sorry to hear this! its been 2 weeks so I hope everything is fine but if you need a chat message me on insta or snap and ill talk about it with you :)


Excuse me, why are all Alosia of these songs absolute gems?!!<br>i think I'm in love

Excuse me, why are all Alosia of these songs absolute gems?!!
i think I'm in love


Honestly this is one of my favs, literally so pretty


it makes me feel like i'm a character in a movie whos suffering on the inside while walking on the streets back home


after a break up, there's always so much emphasis on getting over someone, moving on. thank you for making it ok to go back into those thoughts that everyone tells you to shut out. i really think part of recovering from a bad break up is acknowledging and being ok with those thoughts. i'm working on that at the moment. thank you dodie


This feels like a musical song (not complaining). Also "can we pretend" sounds like "won't be alone again" from sick of losing soulmates and it's giving me such nostalgia.


this feels like something I’ve felt before but I can’t put a pin on it. absolutely incredible.


Such a sweet melody... Can't wait for the final outcome!


Omg you're so beautiful and your words resonate with me more than I was prepared for. I'm so glad to have found you =)<br>Thank you for being you.

Omg you're so beautiful and your words resonate with me more than I was prepared for. I'm so glad to have found you =)
Thank you for being you.


I could see this being in a movie or musical. It plays when someone is alone and crushed, wanting for something they know they’ll never end up getting. God this takes me places


I love alosia! it's my favourite time to head what you've come up with. its crazy hearing you where you are now from like... 5 years ago. you've improved so much and I can't wait to hear more from you 💕 your songs have literally saved me


This hits so close to home. I can feel a relationship ending slowly & I don’t want it to but I know we will both be better off. We’ve done so much growing together but now we both need sometime for ourselves. I’ve loved him, I really have & this song just came at the right time. Thank you Dodie


oh no dodie you've done it again, I'm bawling my heart out at 1am


All of these demos are getting me through this quarentine dodie 💕


I can see this being the opening song for an EP or album and then every song after is like... a playthrough of their relationship. All the good, all the heartbreak.

And then a tiny tiny little outro/closing song about facing the day ahead??? Yes????

I need it lmfao


this feels like part of the end of a movie. I love it


this feels like a song to show people when youre reminiscing. it feels as if it brings memories when youre stargazing


this is the best one. this by far is one of the best songs i’ve ever heard


Hi Dodie,

I've been hooked on you for a long while now. I think your style is authentic as they come and I love waking up every morning listening to your music. Thank you for your existence and dedication to the craft as well as speaking truth for other's who can't exactly articulate how they feel. You are a beacon in darker times.


Will someone please tell me why I’m crying this is a beautiful. I just ugh her music is incredible and gives me this nostalgic feeling for situations I’ve never experienced


I just lost my friend to suicide, two months ago - and this song seriously brought me to tears

@bluejsa  means the world to me, Dodie always knows how to make me feel calm,

Im sorry for your loss, know they still love you and are smiling down at you


ME: TODAY I'M NOT GONNA CRY<br>DODIE: I DON'T THINK SO HONEY 😗✌

ME: TODAY I'M NOT GONNA CRY
DODIE: I DON'T THINK SO HONEY 😗✌


Dodie, look at your old videos and then these. Almost same angle, recorded on a phone, a keyboard, but a grown woman now. You've grown so much and done so much. We're all proud!


dodie u cant make me cry rn, my tear ducts arent ready for all this work


this sounds like it belongs in a heart breaking stage musical.  I almost picture a hospital bed with someone sleeping in it, and the character awake at the bedside is singing this to them


How is it that you forever manage to make such pertinent songs to my life, please don't stop.


Dodie, I’ve said this in comments on Instagram but I gotta say it here. This tore my heart out of my chest and demanded emotions to overflow out of me. I am sobbing. This is so comforting and stirring at the same time. Your song have always pulled emotion out of me and made me feel big times and inspired me but JESUS this one TORE ME UP INSIDE!!! This is STUNNING!!!!


This sounds like the reprise of a disney movie film 🥰 love it


Please make this an album and PLEASE put Just Fine on it too 🥺


so good. sounds like it could be a solo ballad in a musical


Dodie, again, I don’t want to pressure you.
But please consider putting all of these demos onto an album.
I like the idea of someone who said to make an album and call it ALOSIA, with all of these demos on it.


PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE release this it's absolutely beautiful :(


This re-broke my heart. Ugh. Just when you think you’re over it lol

Edit: I mean this in the best possible way ❤❤ your music makes me feel so hard


When i first heard the song i related it to my life after loosing a close family member, and wanting to be with them “one last time, please” like i was begging someone to let me see them again.


Beautiful. Does anyone know the mic she is using to record is called? 🙏


This has a strange Phantom of the Opera feel to it!


Freddy, if you're scrolling through the comments because I showed you a link to this:

I want to spend my life with you.
You are so deeply important to me and I never want to lose you.


This song is like being curled up on a stormy day looking through old photos and ticket stubs and drawings and handwritten notes and stuff from an ex


Really needed this kinda song and didn't know it. Revisiting memories,giving closure. But man does this hit so so hard. Been listening to it on repeat "just one night more then ill close the door , somehow step into a world without you" memories of schooldays,relationships,lossing loved ones wanting to stay one more day with those you loved and lose along the way. "I'll  take a night with you and we can rise with the sun, till then please be mine.." such a deep emotional hit, thank you so much dodie. You bring us all together to love and be emotional withone another. Also that teeth clack at the end is such a lightand uplifting end and i cant tell why. To all the unspoken words we wish we'd said and done, may yall find peace on the path loves❤


This song reminds me of something you would hear in your favorite classic childhood movie that you forgot about and then you stumble upon it one day and everything comes back and you're crying before it even stars playing.


This reminds me of the in the night garden them song with instremental and everything. It reminds me of childhood warmth and innocence. Its lovely


Appreciate how applicable this is to multiple situation- this is also exactly why it made me cry like a baby. I started crying about one thing and ended the song crying about something else :-)


as someone who just went through a rough and confusing break up, this song hurts a lot... geez...

beautiful song, made me cry. 10/10


yo I wanna combine this with "somewhere in my memory" I think they would mesh wonderfully! (also I am not crying rn i swear ;-;)


“just one night more, and then i’ll close the door.” sighs LOUDLY.


can literally picture this playing in a move whilst the main character misses their lost love and it’s tearing my heart apart


I just keep coming back here every time I need a good cry


Quarantine is really bringing out Dodie's creativity. This is hauntingly beautiful


This song feels like waking up at 4 am because you couldn't sleep. Softly sad, full of quiet longing, stuck in a dimly lit haze. Just beautiful.


GIRL I NEED THIS NOW! FULL VERSION PLEASEEEEEEE


please i want ALL of these on Spotify I love them


Wow loved this one! I would listen to this as a song as it is right now


get dodie to write a film soundtrack. this is so beautiful


Damnit! You're being adorable again !  Have to admit I like the song and your voice ! Bravo !


Dodie, these are YOUR channels. Nobody's telling you you can't (re)upload Cool Girl to this channel. Just do as you please :^D and I LOve that song as well ♥


I want this as an overlayed duet with "Even if it's a lie"


Me :New song
Listens to it and sobs
Well ,enough dodie music  for today


Shit man, these lyrics hit too close to home for my current relationship situation


reminds me of that line in hard feelings “let’s give it a minute before we admit that we’re through”


Антон Рогачёв


also i cried very hard to this but in such a good relieving way, thank you so much


i got  'once you'  by jacob collier mixed with  'even if it's a lie'  by matt maltese vibes and i cried through all of that and this oh my god <br>dodie how

i got  'once you'  by jacob collier mixed with  'even if it's a lie'  by matt maltese vibes and i cried through all of that and this oh my god
dodie how


This made me cry so hard - such a beautiful song.


I remember hearing this on her insta and loving it


Surely you can release an album called "Lock Down" with all of these songs on it. Make it for charity!!


My dad is moving away to Wisconsin tonight, my sister's always busy at college, my mom disappears randomly with her bf, and my brother doesnt talk to me anymore, so <b>this song hits a bit different</b>

My dad is moving away to Wisconsin tonight, my sister's always busy at college, my mom disappears randomly with her bf, and my brother doesnt talk to me anymore, so *this song hits a bit different*


on behalf of all the heart broken people, pleeeaaase make this into a full song, it's so painfully beautiful


the little triplet in the piano i- just i love this so much i feel it so bad :( 🥺💖


this sounds like the type of ost I listen to while reading some niche romance manga at 4am while crying


The day this was released, I was in a place with no internet but coincidentally had a massive sob because I miss someone (not usually a a cryer). It's weird but dodies posts always seem to match up with my life perfectly. Every melody of her's sounds like home somehow, like something I've  always known. Something that's comforting and bittersweet and safe, like returning home after a big adventure, knowing both everything and nothing will change from it and being completely ok with that.

I hope someday I'll meet her and say that when the world was ending around me, she is what made me feel ok in my brain again.


the perfect thing to calm me down before i take my last exam for this semester


This song hit me so, so hard. Every word, every chord change, every breath. It makes me think of the boy that I love with every fiber of my being, unconditionally. It makes me think of how he used to love me just as much but then he left and I'm still sitting here with my heart in shambles wondering if there's anything I can do to bring him back to me, and making it known to him and the rest of the world that I would still drop anything for him. Being in love is the most beautiful thing, but when you're loving alone, it is the loneliest way of being.


dodie i am BEGGING you to release this as a full song


this reminds me of sleepovers at my grandma's house. Getting to stay up late and watch shows with her, talking about god and all things existential, getting my nails painted ten different colors, and waking up to watch the price is right with cocoa and cinnamon toast. I would give anything for one more day at her house and tell who I have become.


Dodie: post demo.<br>Me: ZOOM ZOOM GOTTA GO 𝕱𝖆𝖘𝖙

Dodie: post demo.
Me: ZOOM ZOOM GOTTA GO 𝕱𝖆𝖘𝖙


I like this. Also, several of these demos seem to have an old-fashioned vibe, with the audio quality and the lighting/colour of the shot. Is that a 'I have a concept in mind' thing, or simply to reflect the demo nature of these ditties?


I get Emma and Dex vibes from this, I'm at the beginning of the book so far but this feels so much like what they want to say to each other


The piano part super reminds me of "Instrumental".. this is so beautiful, it's 7am and I'm in tears ahhhhhh


Anyone else getting vibes of the Instrumental from the You EP at 1:32? Love it


this sounds like a reflective song sung by the main character of a nostalgic musical


I need this in a studio version now now now


I am full on sobbing. I feel like my heart just got ripped out but then carefully placed back in with a hello kitty bandaid to cover the wound.


please release these demos I need them on my commutes.


really appreciate the chords in the description uwu


this is making me feel a feeling I’ve never felt does anyone get me ;-;


that last little piano with the similar pattern to the instrumental which just makes me feel so many feels wow


please put all of these on spotify i'm dying nwn


Bloody ell I'm in my feels. This is beautiful but hit me right in the heart while trying to manage a break up and struggling with longing


sometimes i don't even realize what channel she posts on i just watch whatever she posts, because either way it'll be amazing


you know it slaps with that like to dislike ratio 💛


This song made me cry, most songs don’t make me cry, but this broke me. :’D


Parts of this give me such Music of the Night from Phantom vibes, but in the best way! Lovely lovely!


WOW I think I just discovered a whole new amazing dimension of music.


this is kind of a mix of If I’m Being Honest and Sick Of Losing Soulmates, and I love it so much, tho it makes me sad.<br>It’s wonderful dodie xx

this is kind of a mix of If I’m Being Honest and Sick Of Losing Soulmates, and I love it so much, tho it makes me sad.
It’s wonderful dodie xx


i'm sobbing. This hurts, but in like a really good way. <3


This feels like it should be in a film 💕💓😍


@ad fikołkum Atleast I didn't say "First"! :p


your voice just hits different I love it


just sitting here wondering how she crafts songs so easily. as an aspiring songwriter i'm in awe


This feels like it should be in the background of a pixar movie during a really heartfelt goodbye. Sooo nostalgic feeling


It hurts more knowing our situation today, imagine all the unfinished love stories


Went through a breakup the other day and have been listening to SAD music to help me feel SAD and yet, dodie's music is the only music that works. I don't even know if this is about a breakup but DAMN it's about mine 😭😭😭

Edit: I've listened to it four times in a row and owww my heart


I like how she makes her song feel relatable for whatever is going on in different people’s life. Like this got me in me feelings about being a senior in high school and missing my last day and stuff :/


OUCH my heart just sank. Dodie I love you


the 'we can rise with the sun' bit... haunting


20 seconds in and im already sobbing a river


Doubt you will see this cause I'm almost an hour late but I just want to let you know that you are such an inspiration to me and you've gotten me through a lot of hurt to a point where I feel like your the shoulder I can lean on when no one else seems to care so thanks for that.


I was dating this guy and during the relationship I made a terrible mistake because I thought it was the right choice to do to make everyone happy but in the end I ended up losing him and my best friend..

They both ended up posting things, spread rumors, and even bullied me afterwards. The cyber bullying was the worst part. So when I heard this song it reminds me of when I was happier with him before choices were made and how I wish it was still like that.

I’ve been trying to find a song that would help explain how I feel and this was it. Thank you dodie. It’s beautiful.


This almost sounds like a sad lullaby and it reminds me of that sad song from An American Tale when those two little siblings are separated.


Aw this gives me movie score vibes and I absolutley live it 😭😭


I'm crying and chills. how is it possible for someone to be this good


my boyfriend just passed two weeks ago and i cried so hard hearing this song for the first time


I know this is probably about a relationship love but this really hit home for how I feel with my grandmother being in hospice and going to be passing any day now.


dodes u continue to make such beautiful music i can’t 🥺👉👈


One of the few good things coming out of lockdown 🥺


0:00 for me when I’m aboutta fall asleep lol this is my lullaby


Absolutely gorgeous, ps can the end pls fade into Instrumental bc I was totally hearing that during the outro❤


this sounds like it could be a ballad in a heart break musical


This is so raw so painful.. recently i went through a situation where this song would have been very very meaningful but I'm glad I'm out of that so that i can listen to this without losing my mind


DODIE!!!! I'm early for once. I love you so much 💕 You inspire me a lot


This needs to be in a movie with Saoirse Ronan so I can cry violently in a theatre again


This feels like a bonus song from the La La Land soundtrack


This is really beautiful! LIke a sad lullaby.


this is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard


this song hurts my heart in all the right places


i swear the bit at 1:00 is the most beautiful thing i’ve ever heard


when i heard “one last time please” at the beginning i thought you’d written words to your “Instrumental”

Becca Aaaa me too!! I was so excited haha


This song made my soul ache. Like it hit me in such a vulnerable way. I absolutely love it but I wasn’t expecting to feel this way.


So, is anybody gonna mention how the start of each verse is almost exactly like the start to "Somewhere Out There" from An American Tail? I'm nostalgic and sad and very in love with this song :')


the only thing getting me through quarantine rn


Very nice song, dodie. I think this one should get airplay, as well as Cool Girl.


It feels slightly familiar. Like a melancholy memory from the past. You make so Good music that it made me cry


This was so beautiful... It kinda gave me some music of the night vibes from phantom of the opera mix with some Barbie (lol) but it was so pretty


Some of this reminds me a bit of Instrumental and its just such sad but good vibes i love it :,)


ur actually a genius. i wish my brain could write like yours can 🥺


I don’t care if it’s low quality but PLEASE release these demos🥺


i have never been this early, love you dodie! stay healthy xoxo


This really reminds me of breakup songs in musicals. I kept thinking of the last five years!


shit i’m about to move away from my ex and this is seriously hitting home. i want us to talk and hang out one last time before i leave


this song has the power to make you think about someone you spent 5 months trying to erase from your life , but i still listen to it on repeat


Everyone's telling me not to text my ex but I can't stop listening to Orla's EP and dodie drops this on me give me a break y'all I'm begging


Please please please release this one pleaseeee !! 🙏☺


oh my goodness im in tears, absolutely amazing again


I got this on the "What dodie song are you?" filter on Instagram and it couldn't be more true to how I'm feeling right now


I can't stop coming back - to all of the alosia songs, but especially this one.


The lyrics aren't in the description! ;-; This song is so gorgeous.<br>Edit: They are now!!

The lyrics aren't in the description! ;-; This song is so gorgeous.
Edit: They are now!!

If you're still looking for them, they are now :)


I think I'd like it better with "before" replaced with "back then" but other then that Dodie made another masterpiece!


Why do I get the corps bride vibes from this it's so good though!! 👏👏💕💕


This just ripped my heart into pieces. 😢


I think my favs have been this, bite back and cool girl killin it dodie


Ngl Im just scared for the end of April cos what will we do without these mini masterpieces on a regular basis to get us through lockdown


ah... finally the perfect song to cry myself to sleep to


I clicked as soon as the notification popped up and omgggg only a few seconds in and you've already punched me in the feels 😭😭😭


This feels like it should’ve been in About Time, during one of the sad bittersweet parts, anyone else feel that?


I wonder if Matt Maltese's Even If It's a Lie had much of an influence on this? I know Dodie loves it.


How do u write such amazing songs? I've been trying to write all day and my song is so basic and I cant find the right words 😭


This makes my heart hurt. That’s what real raw music does.


I am begging you to put these on Spotify for my health


we need an album of quarantine made mini songs


2:07 anyone getting instrumental vibes (from you)


i'm just getting over this like 4+ year friendship (and smol relationship oop) and i wanna cry and just giv u a HUG!!! love you lots dodie !! <3 <3


I want a demo record I'd play it in my record player 24/7 💗💗💗 Maybe call it Alosia?


this one hurts but also feels so heartwarming.


Chills emanating from deep within my core...


Please write a musical called alosia and put every single one of these songs in it thank you


Anyone else currently sobbing listening to this? ..... yeah me too...😭


1:00 - 1:12 the GOOSEBUMPS oh my goodness...


In the middle of listening to this it started raining outside. I can still hear it on the window as I type this. It is so beautifully sad, sigh


I've spent over two very difficult years getting over someone.. I'm nearly there but things like this give me a tiny relapse (in a good way.... I think?) MY EMOTIONS.


THATS WHAT IT IS - IT SOUNDS LIKE THE IN THE NIGHT GARDEN THEME TUNE


This song always makes me cry because I can imagine a child asking their divorced parents to love them together again. To have their parents and family together "just one night more." Longing for more.


omg. even if it’s a lie energy. this is SO GOOD


i know i made the right choice when i broke up with him, and although i don’t wanna get back together, i really miss him... i just wish i could have stayed forever in the goodbye


I’m a senior in highschool. We’re out for the rest of the year and this song makes me miss everything I took for granted about school.


this could be in a REALLY cute disney movie, it would be my favorite one


I feel like this song should be in a musical or something


When you see the notif so you gotta drop your book report and zoom zoom over


Very Beautiful Emotional song!  Thanks for being Original and Unique! 😁😆


I just broke up with my first boyfriend after dating for almost 2 years and this is exactly what I needed

vαlєrιє vєитισи


found this at just the right time. sobbing so much rn :'((


I know it's about a breakup but this song makes me think of my Grandad who past away a month ago from lung cancer. I hadn't seen him in 4 years and I couldn't go visit him because I live in New Zealand and he lived in England.  What I would give to see him one last time and tell him how much I love him.

Now that you say that, it does remind me of my Grandmother who also passed away from cancer when I was nine. I was very close to her when she was alive which is why I regret being kind of scared of her because of how unhealthy she looked the last few times I saw her. I was scared to hug her because I thought I would hurt her. I would also give anything to give her one last hug.


WOW!°○○ Incredibly good AND beautiful <3 Thanx a lot🌻


I did not see this one coming. damn.

For me, this perfectly explains my feeling of being separated from my girlfriend by this corona lockdown. Eventhough we are still together, we have not seen eachother irl since 18 march, and i miss her like crazy.. How much i would give, for just one night more, before i had to close that door when she left.
We'll see eachother again, but for now, its waiting..

Thanks for this song Dodie!


WHO ELSE THINKS THIS DESERVES MORE RECOGNITION

small youtuber tryna hit my next milestone here 🙋🏻♀💛


that key change... this sounds like a disney song and i love it


Feeling all of this. Spent a year with someone I wanted to spend a lifetime with. Things happened in her life, and she just wasn't able to keep going with me. It hurt so bad, and being in a very close social circle with her has been even harder. I often wish I could go back and maybe do things better, but I just gotta roll with the punches I guess


Thanks for the heads up about the second channel. Didn't know about it and love listening to your songs!


That wish sounds so pure and brave. So precious.


Dodie is really good at making songs that hurt so good.


Dodie is so close to 2 mil and it makes me happy


You have an absolute gift for hitting me very hard, very quickly. Well done...again...ugh...


Who wants to join the raid I’m gonna do on dodie’s house if she doesn’t release any of these


This is such a soothing sound. I don't usually leave comments on any video but I felt that this really touched me. Just over a year ago I lost a dear friend due to suicide. I still miss her everyday and I wish I could have one last time with her. Fly high my angel, I will always remember you 💔


This feels very Bruno Major-inspired!! I love it!


Oh owwww... I just broke up from a very long relationship a little over a week ago now, and HOO BOY this song just hit way closer than I'd like to admit 😂🙃 Nonetheless, it's gorgeous ❤


this song was so good it made me actually remember to like I LOVE


Killer song, as I expected from Dodie.
That chorus melody/harmonic resolution is almost exactly the theme from Polar Express.
Might want to be careful there.

Omg I’ve never heard it but now I want to


I knew this sounded so familiar because you put it on Twitter that one time to get back to C!! Amazing amazing amazing makes me cry and makes me so happy. I NEEDED THIS. This song is so so cool


You could totally add your song called 'instrumental' in your ep in the background of this! That's the vibe of nostalgia I got


I started bawling. This describes how I feel since our school year has been sorta cancelled. Meaning we aren't going back to the building. This is how I feel, like I just want one more day of my junior year to say proper goodbyes.


i wish i could have a montage of everyone laughing at school with this song behind it.


Wowowowowoowowow my god these are all so amazing wtf dodie.


I would give   a n y t h i n g   for this to be officially released


another one to add to my dodie jukebox musical song list


Ooh “we can rise with the sun” really hit me


This song hurts me, but in a good way. We're still friends but I miss her, and it's never gonna be how it used to.


Gives me regina specter vibes and I LOVE IT


holy shit dodie, pls write a musical. this hurts so much but i love it


Major La La Land vibes from this. So bittersweet and beautiful.


the fact that this was released the day after my ex and I broke up- this hits a lot differently


this sounds like it should be in a musical


OMG Im dead this slayed me this is so beautiful reminds me of imogen heap


the last bit sounds like it should be played in one of those music boxes with a little ballerina


you ever wanna listen to a specific song but that song doesn’t exist? well for me, that’s this song. she’s made it


SHE HAS DONE IT AGAIN FOLKS! Not only is she so dang beautiful but she brings me to tears. It would be a dream to have a convo with you!


This reminds me of my best friend. Her name is katie. she was my significant other in a past life. we died just. holding. each other as our house went up in flames. now she was reincarnated as my best friend.

and i still have feelings for her

but, she doesn’t have feelings for me because she’s straight and im a girl.

no matter how many people i date i cant seem to get over her smile and the moments we share. whenever we embrace, it brings me back to a time where we once held on to each other and never let go.

but we dont have that same spark anymore. it feels like im slowly loosing her.

it hurts more than anything and i can tell you that this song makes me want to rewind backwards to a life where we could love each other more than friends.


yaas, that's what i needed! The chords!!


Please write a musical. Your songs are so beautiful.


oh wow this might be the best song you've ever written...


i got my moment earlier tonight, i didn't realise what it was until now.

we spoke as if nothing had changed

how can i miss someone so much who's hurt me this much


this song is like the ending of la la land but also like a really nice hug. ugh. IN LOVE.


I can either sleep with this or cry over this.

I can’t sleep over this masterpiece, i’d rather cry and get a headache crying rather than sleep over this. this song is too good frick I don’t wanna cry

I can either sleep with this or cry over this.

I can’t sleep over this masterpiece, i’d rather cry and get a headache crying rather than sleep over this. *this song is too good frick I don’t wanna cry*


this sounds like something from La La Land, idk what it is but this sounds like it would totally be in the movie - the lyrics lowkey remind me of Mia and Sebastian post-audition <br>anyways i'm crying and ily dodie

this sounds like something from La La Land, idk what it is but this sounds like it would totally be in the movie - the lyrics lowkey remind me of Mia and Sebastian post-audition
anyways i'm crying and ily dodie


How can you not cry during singing, I wouldn't be able :'(


I dont want April to end just cause I don't want ALOSIA to end


this one hit me too close to home. when my ex bestfriend and boyfriend had broken up with me i had asked for a day where we could pretened it never happened  in a desperate  attempt. it didnt happen. he had stopped loving me for awhile and just hadnt said it.... we stopped talking as per is request and thins just arent the same anymore to say the least

amazing song btw💖


The main theme sounds like Fragments of Memories from Final Fantasy 8


I know this song is about a break-up, but I see it as talking to yourself in the mirror, trying to find the happiness and innocence you once had.


Hey Tony. If you’re reading this. I miss you. You were great. Thank you for letting me experience love. Keep safe in these scary times. I wish we could be just once more. I think of you often, I know it’s only been a few months, if that. I still love you.


getting strong ‘even if its a lie’ vibes


this one is like 'even if it's a lie' but if it were a musical theatre reprise


If someone forged her voice and music into steel and someone stabbed me with it, I would probably thank them profusely.


Why does this sum up exactly how I'm feeling right now


Please for the love of god write a musical in your lifetime 😍


id be SO down for a soft musical w dodie songs


I get such Phantom of the Opera vibes from the piano


Would y'all understand if I say this woman makes me cry tears of joy


ow I thought about sleeping in my bedroom one last time before college while listening to this and started aggressively crying


the name of the song had me shook ngl by the time i finished listening to it i was full on dead

jgksosjd what!!! i can’t believe dodie liked this stupid comment i’ve been a huge fan since like lush days and i’m full on shaking and hyperventilating


never has a song felt so real and so close.


this feels like salvation and shelter from all the craziness this song is so painfully sad and everything feels painfully sad at the moment but i feel welcomed and accepted for the pain i feel?


I can’t be the only one that thinks she looks like the 🥺 emoji because of her classes and the lights reflecting and just her being herself aw


I don't know why this song made me feel breathless


i love that most of Build A Problem is just dodie. staying safe during a panoramic 👍


this hits too close to home. I'm about to cry


perhaps i WILL be crying tonight. thank u for ur music


the begging of the piano sequence at the end reminds me a lot of instrumental !! i luv i luv i luv


THANK YOU A BILLION FOR CHORDS IN DESCRIPTION!!


this sounds like something sang by the protagonist in the climax after being defeated by the villain and wanting to go back to the simple times before the villain came, and then instrumental playing when they discover the new power inside them that will help them defeat the villain and save the day


i really want to write a story for this song omg


me?? crying to this song and listening to it on repeat?? its more likely than you think


AT THE END, IT SOUNDS LIKE THE INSTRUMENTAL THING FROM YOUR YOU EP AND IDK IF THAT WAS YOUR INTENTION BUT IM LIVING FOR IT AND I LOVE WHEN ARTISTS DO CALLBACKS LIKE THAT AKDNKAISJDKG


hi! does anyone have suggestions as to what the chord for the G to Am ascend on the fourth line is?


This sounds almost like Instrumental from the You EP, not exactly, but like vaguely mirroring it. I love it!


I'm glad this is back from copyright limbo.  I thought I might not be able to hear it again!


Please can we get an Ep or something? These are good for my soul


You could write a musical like La La Land with this song and Instrumental. Wow, it would be so beautiful.


This sounds like it could be from a musical


dodie be honest was this influenced by once you... jokes aside its very lovely!!


I know this song is probably about a breakup or a love interest but I can’t help but thinking about people who have passed away and how id give anything to be with them and see them one last time


This hits me too hard lol I recently confessed to my crush (a sort of long time friend) that I liked him, and it’s not working out the way I’d hopeddddd and I sort of wish everything would just go back to normal


This could be a classic Disney song for a poignant moment in act 2 before it all works out.


Really beautiful and honest. Thanks, thought i was over them but I GUESS NOT HUH? (T-T）


What kind of sick freak would down vote this sweet angel?  Whoever you are..  KNOCK IT OFF !   dodie is a gift to the world and this song is wonderful.


(Tw-)I have a scenario for this-  a wlw couple has a date set for watching movies and cuddling all night. Woman #1 is getting ready to leave her house, as the ‘date’ is at woman #2’s house. As woman #1 gets ready to leave, woman #2 is getting ready to leave life behind. This all goes on in the first verse, by the very first “nothings changed at all” woman 1 finds her S.O. barely clinging to life. By the second verse, woman 1 is cradling woman 2 in her arms, and starts singing this song (in this scenario it’s “their song”)  to woman 2 until the second to last verse, tears streaming down her face. On the last verse, from one last time please to “I’ll take a night with you” woman 1 sings alone, then on “we can rise with the sun” (where the melodies are” the women sing together. After that on “but till then please be mine” woman 2 is the only one singing, on the last line, a tragic “one time again” is sung by both of them, and woman 2 takes her final breaths.

The end.
WHY IS MY BRAIN BUILT LIKE THIS I KEEP IMAGINING IT AND IM LITERALLY SOBBING NOW WHAT-


dodies faces when she sings makes me want to have a billion cute dodies


Best song dodie has written EVER (When is the second best now)


my bf and i recently broke up and this song just hit me right in the heart. i know when you're in love, everything seems amazing with rose tinted glasses but it was truly perfect. it didn't make sense to break up but at the same time it did. i just wish i saw it coming just so i could have really enjoyed our time together one last time before everything changed. ahhhh


This is the sound of a sunrise. Pink and purple and blue and very very quiet, reminiscent of something bittersweet


she sang the first word and I liked no joke


this song is like even if it’s a lie and DANGIT IM CRYING AGAIN


bruh it’s 3am and i come back to this video because i’m like sad and i just realized this would go so well with the la la land epilogue


its so sad knowing this will always stay as a demo :(

The melody reminds me slightly of The Suite from the Polar Express


this song sounds like it should be in a musical


the night after my ex boxfriend of three years and i broke up, we cried together and then slept in each others arms for one last time, both knowing that this would be the end of our relationship. this song just brought that night back so vividly that i broke down, but i feel so understood


dodie please i haven’t stopped crying about the last one yet


My heart!
This made me cry
The song sort of reminds me of Goodnight by the Beatles


I so love the teething on the last bit.

Great so tho. 😻


Okay, but why am I crying?😅😭

PLEASE make an album titles ALOSIA!!!! PLEEEEASE!


when everyone else listening to this is thinking about someone else but you're thinking of your past self lol


This is straight outta a Disney movie and you cannot convince me otherwise omg


Please tell me what this unit is that you're recording your voice on, please. I've seen units like it from Tascam and Zoom etc. but what is yours and is it what you record your minory Christmas songs on? I love the sound of your recordings.


Whoa. I was instantly taken back to the moment sitting on a bench outside the train station when my ex and I pretended for a few minutes, after we'd broken up and cried, that we were back at the beginning. And we laughed. And I felt like I could breath again. And then I cried because I remembered that this is what we were losing. and that this is what things were like before things went bad and we realized we had to let each other go.

@doddleoddle I'm crying, I did not expect you to see this. Thank you for the beautiful music! I can't explain how much it means to me. <3
