I would love this too. I still come here all the time haha. It's tied first with a couple of others. It's honestly one of my favourite songs in general.
Listen, I know This one's a contradiction because of how happy it sounds But the lyrics are so down It's okay though Because it represents, wait, better yet it is Who I feel I am right now
I’m 3 years late to this comment but there is a playlist that Dodie made on her original channel (doddleoddle) full of all her original songs. There’s 96 songs in it including this one. I’m listening to them right now 😂
+Joe Kidd started by Hank green of the vlog brothers YouTube channel, the plus system is to create a more positive YouTube comment space. Essentially, you ignore comments you disagree with, and when you agree with a comment, you add a plus. Thus, comments that would get lots of angry replies are at the bottom, since they now have none, and the comments that a lot of people agree with are at the top, since they got the most attention (aka a lot of pluses)
A reply is worth more than a like on YouTube, so comments with more replies get pushed to the top and more people see them. It would be nice if more people read the positive comments instead of the negative ones, which tend to be pushed to the top because people generally only reply to comments that they don't agree with. Let's spread the love!
This is one of my favorite songs that Dodie has ever written-- which is saying something! "A woman with a teenage brain attempts to play the grown up game" is one of those sharply accurate lines in a song that latches onto your brain and won't let go until it has muttered itself in your ear at least 1,000 times.
dodie this is amazing! I suffer from depression and it seems when I watch your videos, I smile for the first time in forever. This made me cry. Thank you dodie for making me smile all the time! Keep on making videos!
DODIE PLEASE MAKE A UKE TUTORIAL FOR THIS PLEASE UGH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LITERALLY EVERYONE LIKE THIS SO MAYBE SHE SEES IT I NEED A TUTORIAL SO BADLY I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
I just finished your book. I'm in tears. You are so amazing, you have no idea what this book meant to me. I could relate to everything and... oh God, the feels the feels. Keep going... you're one of a kind! x
Just finished reading Dodie's book (for the fourth time 😊). I love it! It's so easy to read, it's packed full of life advice and stories, but most of all, it's brimming with the beauty of a life that's being lived. I cannot articulate the effect Dodie has had on my life - but this beautiful, beautiful book seems to cumulate everything she's done for me. Wow, I love her so much. Thank you Dodie, for helping me learn so much about myself (and stopping me do some stupid things!). Bless you. All of the love and the best for the future you amazing human. ❤
I love this! I initially thought it was a cover and I'm sad it's still not been properly recorded and released. Please consider this for your next EP/album
I know it’s not the meaning, but in my head some of these lyrics remind me of the thought I don’t like school now, but I will miss it when it’s gone and stuff, cause I miss primary school but I’m still in secondary! I’m gonna listen to this after I leave, (which is in a while, but sooner than I think I guess!) and see how I feel
Dodie, you capture such emotion in each and every song you create and I feel so blessed that you share them with us :') Keep fighting those demons, they will not win! We will get through the crappy times... it's going to be okay <3
+doddleoddle I think for the last chorus where you sing the do you think in the background should be louder and the song is perfect lyrically for some odd reason a trumpet could make it sound kinda cool I think???? I'm not sure whatever you feel is best for your song but definitely with a bit of drums
Dodie, i love you. this is so empowering. you're still here and amazing and working so hard and being wonderful, despite all you've gone through and all the time you've spent being so busy. i love you so much.
Dodie this is one of my favourite songs from you, i love the lyrics (like i usually do) but the music in this one is SO good too! I love it love it love it, thank you for your art
when you like a comment or think it could lead to a good discussion, you comment with a plus. this brings the good, thoughtful and interesting comments to the top as opposed to all the troll comments being shown first.
love this song doddie, I especially enjoyed the fugue you had going at the end there. I don't know how comfortable you are with belting but I feel this song really lends to that.
I really liked how upbeat and fun this song was, and I really liked the melody and chord progression. However I think that the "silent" parts (idk what those are called) before the chords themselves are better fit in the middle 8. In the verses it sounds great but in the chorus it just gets a bit repetetive and comfusing, particularly the first time I listened to the song. Also, I think that you could shorten the lyrics a bit when they're too fast (ex. AND i will break again)so it's both easier for you to sing and for us to listen. Another thing is that before the chorus and before the second verse the instrumental kinda felt a bit too long but I didn't mind.
Sorry that I wrote so much, but I'm just telling you my opinion. I'm obviously not a professional and I'm not gonna tell you how to do your job. However I think if you work on it a little more and dress it up a bit it will sound even better! :D
It's a way of gaming the comment system started by Hank Green so that reasonable discourse gets pushed to the top rather than controversial arguments because the comments systems weights replies over anything else.
LPS NutellaKitty I like that you weren't hating on her, just giving your opinion in a respectful way as constructive criticism. And I think they're called muffles. Idk.
My chior and I are getting songs to sing on a special day, if this wasn’t a demo I would’ve asked my chior teacher if we could sing it but I feel it wouldn’t be right since your not done (hah get it) anyway yeah I absolutely love this song and it’s perfect as I see it 😁
god I love this girl's music!! I'm a rap guy alternative guy an found her by looking at a comment on the video, unofficial video of Sail . I'm so happy I found this. the piano an 🎻 an other instruments I love so much.
Dodie! I think this is my most favourite thing ever in the world! I love everything you do but this song is absolutely fabulous! Thank you for allowing me to listen to its greatness❤️
hi hello I've been having panic attacks recently and the chorus of this had me on the verge of tears bc it's literally how I've been feeling about this nervousness that seems to follow me around a lot and anyway this is so lovely wow thanks
i love this so much! my suggestion might sound a bit weird at first, but there are places where you could put some light drumming in the background and a little bit of electric guitar to make it even more energetic!
I always forget about this song and yet the link the title who knows keeps brining me back. I listen to the beginning and am like "oh ya like this song" then you hit the chorus at around 55 seconds and I'm like "oh ya i LOVE this song"!
you are amazing dodie, I can relate to you so much. everything from the mental breakdown to the bisexuality to all those different feelings described in your songs. (even if I have a different interpretation of them) I just want to wish you the best in the world, just remember to always keep fighting
Somehow YT recommended this song to me and I got to stumble across it again. Thank you so much, Dodie, for your music. I love this more than I can express in words
I love this song so much, you might think it's unpolished but I still sing it all the time, especially with how stressed and anxious I've been recently it's just so catchy and nice ahh<333
Your voice is the best for asmr and your "take a moment" video remains one of my favorites. This made me think, how about a similar video with positive affirmations to yourself? One you could re-watch to reassure yourself when you're feeling down.pretty sure it could be enjoyable for us and yourself <3
Whenever I feel a panic attack coming, this is one of the songs i listen to that helps me calm down. I don't know what it is about it, but I really needed it this morning
"I may not like my thighs, but at least my body keeps me alive" . This has made me feel so much better about myself. Thank you dodie. For everything. From "mumblings of an ill 16 year old" to this. ❤️
just put it on your main channel ahhhh its so good. plus, the music and rhythm depends on what the artist wants. I think the change of strumming and chord progression adds a unique part to the song. Also, an important part is always seeing if you can get someone to tap their foot to the beat near the beginning and throughout the piece. All I have to say is well done :)
also this is just really thought-provoking and inspiring and i'm not sure why but i feel like i want to analyse it. like not in relation to your life but just the ideas... and it's all wrapped up in a catchy little tune. love it
damn, I'm here so many years later (four to be exact) and this is sooooo SO different from the kind of music she writes now, but I'm kind of into this vibe!
Dodieeeeee I love this sooo much, I've listened to it probably too much. I watched your snapchat yesterday and I just have to say I love your voice. Comparing yourself to what you think you should be just stops you from seeing how talented you already are! We support you for whatever you do though. Hope you're doing okay and have a lovely day <3
Ahhh Dodie I'm obsessed with this, it's so fun :') Also in terms of what you could do it I think maybe if in the second chorus you built it up with another instrument or two maybe a cajon drum and a piano or something similar and maybe added harmonies? so that when it's goes into the bridge it's had this slight build up and then it dies down? But generally I think it's already perfect to be honest :D
Also i hate to be one of those people, but i covered it on my channel and i'd love it if you gave it a look :) <3
dodie! I know this is a very late comment, but I really really really LOVE this song that you wrote! It really speaks to me ; v ; I hope that you might revisit this song in the future sometime, it'd be really be cool to hear a finalized version on your main channel/// <3
I love this song so much!!! You should do a little ep or even album of all these songs because I love all of them so far!! Maybe make a playlist on soundcloud or something of "the best of Dodie" or even iTunes if you want to take it that far. These songs are inspiring me so much thank you thank you thank you
I frighten love this so much!!! I don't know how you've done it but you've managed to make me feel like even though the world can be such a horrible place, the people inside of it and love just always make it better. Anxiety started becoming a problem for me a year back and since I started watching your videos and listening to what you had to say about your brain and how things can get really rough but bounce back, I've been feeling much better and more optimistic about things. TRULY THANK YOU!!!!!!
I really love how almost whimsically upbeat this is in contrast to the lyrics, it's very self reflective and I absolutely love that because it perfectly sums up how I feel today! Thank you Dodie for producing music that just perfectly expresses how I feel or something I need to hear in the lyrics, I'm a relatively new subscriber but I really appreciate your music.
as soon as this came out i taught myself the ukulele bit and I'm thinking about doing a cover of it <3 it's a beautiful song and you're a beautiful lyricist Dodie! You're one of my biggest inspirations
The main thing I'm loving about alosia is the fact that you are voicing everything that I've been feeling for a long time. And for that alone, I am truly grateful! Thank you Dodie!
I've been really sad recently for (some reasons which are probably petty) but I always come back to this video vecause it makes me feel better thank you dodie you are honestly such a lovely human
aah I love this so much :) My only suggestion would be that there's this technique called panning (I think?) where you have the instruments or singing in each ear, so for example you could have the chorus in the left ear, and the bridge in the right ear. (that way you can have them both at the same volume, because the bridge part was a bit quieter and harder to hear than the chorus, unless that was intentional.) (i'm also not very good at explaining things :D )
Do it do it! Do another version demo of this song!! maybe add more instruments besides ukulele and surprise us!! it's really good! especially the chorus!!! so connected to the chorus <333333
Finished reading your book while listening to this song. Thank you so much for creating such a special, wonderful and really personal book. I just LOVE it xx
This song, and one for the road, are two of my absolute Dodie favorites. (Also my phone autocorrects dodie to DODIE, so obviously I'm always very excited about dodie omg)
I am in tears. I needed to hear this. I know it, like all your songs, is so personal to you. but as a married single mom(my husband is a trucker and literally never home) of 2 tiny boys there are days I beg for a reprieve, and others I am so sad they are growing so fast. You are a jewel and everything you release seems to come at moments I so desperately need them. and for that, I love you whole heartedly
please finish this song and upload it to your main channel. I absolutely love this! It makes me remember that even some of my greatest inspirations have gone through similar things to me

Still can't believe this is just a demo, it sounds so styled and sweet I love it! Also for some reason I first thought this song was about life and dying. I thought she was saying "watch me back" like watch her videos back when she dies wow why is my brain like this. For some reason I really liked that idea though. I guess art is always open for interpretation. Main channel main channel!
I really love this song, it's a wonderful idea and I relate to it. If put into words something that I know plenty of people feel but I'd always felt alone feeling. I think just touch it up a bit for how you want to tweak it ! You've got a theme for it, stick to it. You've got this! best of luck! all the love xx❤️
Also, could you please please post what you would consider a finished version of this (I think it's already beautiful the way it is) ? Or maybe a make a video on how to play it? I enjoy this song immensely and just need more of it tbh haha.
Idk if you like these alosia songs yourself but omg they're so so good :3 I really really liked 'This Is For Me' as well, it was really good for where I am atm :)
I've heard nearly ALL your songs, including the REALLY hard-hitting ones like "She" and "Sick of losing soulmates" but this one hits me the hardest, because I don't know I just feel broken a lot of the time and I don't know why and I just keep trudging on because thats what I'm supposed to do. And this songs just understands me...so thank Dodie. You're perfect.
This used to be my venting song, and I've now been confirmed as no longer clinically depressed. Listening to this now feels so good, as I'm no longer in that place anymore.
I haven’t listened to this for like a year, I was thinking about it again like “ what was that dodie song I loved but never got released?” So I ended up here and I remembered all the words
You have such a talent for translating the feelings and stories you have in your head into happy, upbeat yet soulful songs. It's so much more meaningful to hear well thought out music from a small musician, than mainstream tech-y music that lacks substance. Thank you for bestowing us with this little part of yourself. I hope that these songs truly make you as happy and inspired as they make us viewers feel. xoxo
This would be amazing if you got a load of viewers to send in recordings and videos of themselves singing along and add it into the last chorus like a massive crescendo. I really relate to it, and I bet a load of other people would too. The message 'I won't be done' is like a freaking battle cry <3
"I've broken before and I will break again, so give me some more I'll be here till the end" is the best thing ive ever fucking heard I love this so much
I think that if you added a bflat as a pickup to the f after you play the eflat in the chorus it would flow smoother and the resolution on the f down beat would be stronger. I mean just strumming 4 and on bflat on the eflat bar
I love the lyrics they're ingenious, and the ukulele is spot on. Are you planning on adding any other instruments? It sounds as though it's missing something. The ukulele is like the base instrument for the song, it just sounds like it needs something more. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel as though the ukulele needs like another instrument friend to harmonize with. But I absolutely love the song I wish I could buy it!!
I'm going on Saturday too! Yeah i got the sacconejolys which I'm happy about and also Lucy and Lydia but they were pretty far down my list lmao did you get any of your choices? :) @LikeReallyMeg
Lyrics: I think my head is fit to burst
which breakdown shall I deal with first
I have to close my eyes
to keep my thoughts inside
how many palpitations can you take on
10 confrontations and I’m still standing strong
I may not like my thighs
but at least my body keeps me alive
so let’s breathe one two three four
till the world gives you some more
do you think
it’ll ever stop
will I miss this
when it’s all gone
watch me beg
for some peace
and when it comes
I won’t be done
How did I get on this path
time and fate are trying to make me laugh
A woman with a teenage brain
attempts to play the grown up game
we can take it
we might break but
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end
yeah we will lose it
You know we’ll use it
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end
I think my head is fit to burst
which breakdown shall I deal with first
I have to close my eyes
to keep my thoughts inside
how many palpitations can you take on
10 confrontations and I’m still standing strong
I may not like my thighs
but at least my body keeps me alive
so let’s breathe one two three four
till the world gives you some more
do you think
it’ll ever stop
will I miss this
when it’s all gone
watch me beg
for some peace
and when it comes
I won’t be done
How did I get on this path
time and fate are trying to make me laugh
A woman with a teenage brain
attempts to play the grown up game
we can take it
we might break but
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end
yeah we will lose it
You know we’ll use it
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end

This song got me through the darkest moments of derealized life, I'm now fully alive and present again, after reading your book I revisited this song and noticed both 0:54 and 2:07 ;)
Nice one - Its a keeper! I like the 4 sections and the overall structure. Bloody good for a draft ... I think these are the chords: -
Intro. F - Gm - F, etc
I think my head is fit to burst F - Gm - F which breakdown shall I deal with first F - Gm - F I have to close my eyes Gm to keep my thoughts inside Cm7
(Chords ss verse 1) how many palpitations can you take on 10 confrontations and I’m still standing strong I may not like my thighs but at least my body keeps me alive
so let’s breathe one two three four Bb till the world gives you some more C
do you think F it’ll ever stop Cm will I miss this Bb when it’s all gone Cm
watch me beg F for some peace Cm and when it comes Bb I won’t be done Bb Etc
These lyrics are exactly the kick in the ass I needed to say "fuck it!" and go for what I want no matter how scared of failure I might be. Your songs are always amazing and there's always at least one line in each that really resonates with me and somehow magically helps me deal with whatever issues or personal blocks I might be having. I don't know how you always seem to get it spot on, but thank you!!
I love the multiple lyrics going at the same time (is that like a "round"? probably exactly like a round) because it's like all the voices in my head going at the same time. You do that in a couple of your songs and I always love it.
This song was AMAZING!! but I do have a suggestion. Towards the end, you did a lil overlap with like background singing (i don't know the right word for it lol) but it kind of sounded like a jumble of words (with an amazing voice :3) so maybe instead of singing in the background while the main voice is singing, you should sing in the background between the lines of the main voice. lol i hope that made sense oooops
Dorothy this is a song that deserves a studio recorded version it sounds like the embodiment of a go lucky you, it has so much potential the lyrics and chords fit so well together on top of your voice it’s so perfect
Hey I actually love this song so much and I watched it when you first uploaded. I took a break from the channel because I was expecting there to be a version of this song on your main platform and I'm back in December and I'm hurt:( please make my wish come truuuuuuue.. all I want for Christmas...issssssss... I won't be done twwwooooo!
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Dm for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped! I'm not the best at explaining :') x
I don't know but somehow my nailpolish always survives my ukulele... but i still can't wear too long nails because at some point the nail will mute a string when you are holding the chords :D
I really really like the poetic-ness of the lines "A woman with a teenage brain/attempts to play the grow up game". That's some quality-quote right there
hey, what a great song! you have different lyrics in the description tho! you sing "so let's count one two three four" and you have "so let’s breathe one two three four" in the description :3
Just so you know, you make me so happy. I was just having a day, an in-the-middle day. With the potential to be a good day or a bad day and I wasn't sure how I could make it into a good day and I thought and thought and thought and the more I thought, the more scared I became of it being a bad day, but then I watched your videos and listened to your songs, the sad songs and the happy songs and they just made me feel better and I stopped obsessing over what kind of day it was going to be, and now that I have, I can feel that it's a good day because I somehow feel so relieved. You make my days good days :)
can someone who understands music explain why i keep getting reminded of Would You Be So Kind when I listen to this - not that it's a bad thing - the two songs just sound good together to me in my head somehow
A few weeks ago I did a singing workshop and the teacher (?) kept telling us to sing "out and forwards" and at some points, especially the softer parts I thought you could do that a bit more. It doesn't mean you should sing louder (I really liked how it got softer!) just with a bit more conviction, I guess. I really really love the rhythm and sound and vibe of this ah
I liked it!!!! I loved what you did with the layering at the end, it could be really fun to get louder and more complex (?) there, with more layering and rounds, kind of reflecting the nonstop thoughts in your head?? Idk it's your song and whatever you do I'm sure it'll be wonderful and you, that's just a suggestion. But yeah I love it!! Keep it up :)
I'm guessing someone on here knows about ukuleles and can help me, so my question is, i'm getting a new uke on the weekend, and i'm between a normal wood one, or a clear plastic one, and i don't know if for my first uke i want to buy a clear one, BUT IT'S SO COOL, but i feel like the wood one is better quality (?) I DON'T KNOW somebody please help me decide D:
ps: HEY Dodie i loved this song! it's so happy sounding <3
Congrats on getting a uke! I've had mine for years & love playing it.
I've played both kinds & in my experience, it's best to try out the types you want in person. Plastic and wood ukulele's sound a bit different, but everyone has their own opinion on which they like better.
For technicalities, Plastic is more durable & easier to clean. I've played the Makala Waterman (which they have in CLEAR) & i find it quite good :D Wood is the traditional ukulele looks & some say it sounds better. Yes it's less durable, but it isn't fragile either. Dropped mine plenty, but still plays good with it's battle scars.
My biggest advice, if you're excited about your uke, you'll wanna play it even more :) You should like the one you buy
Heyyyy haha, woo more ukulele players! So like yee I totally agree plastic ukuleles can look so cool and are easier to clean and such and it being clear would be cool but if you really want a good sound, get the wood. Ukuleles were originally wooden and a wooden one is gonna get you the best and clearest sound.
thanks everyone for the help! i think i'm going for the wooden one (even tho the clear one is really cool). Maybe i'll get the other one in the future, who knows :)
Hello! Wooden things are always better when it comes to instruments :) if you want a quality ukulele, I recommend a Makala. It's a cheaper alternative to their brand "Kala" but it's still the same quality and stuff! Although, the ukulele I have is a Luna, and it's really nice and resonate! A concert is a good ukulele size. They go from Soprano, Concert, Tenor, to Baritone. Try to find a good wooden concert ukulele ^-^
+Dani dodie has a concert uke but it's still in the standard gcea tuning ( I think), but these ones tend to be a lot more expensive than the soprano ukes. I don't know if you want to start to play bc then a soprano uke in the same tuning would be better in my opinion just because it's a lot cheaper for someone to start with. However, if you want something that's amazing quality and has a great sound and stuff (and if the prize doesn't matter) a concert one can be a better choice. I hope I helped you and I hope it's ok that I responded even though the question was not dedicated to me :D
@Lola Lovely thank you for your help ^-^ and btw, i just came home from the shop. I ended up buying a wooden concert size uke, cause i find the soprano one to be too small and like, i can't hold it properly xD and a friend who knows a lot about music went with me and helped me so i'm really happy with what i got (according to him, the one i got was cheaper than expected, and it was really good quality, so everything's a ok)
@Dani yay good for you! I'm glad you found something you really like, have fun playing! I have a uke myself and I love to play so I hope you enjoy it just as much :D
+Dani I knew it was concert, but normally brands have many different kinds of the same size uke. like I know Kala (for example) has a wide variety of concert ukes from beginner to very high end
i think you already got a response, but she has a concert. People usually start off with a soprano, it being the smallest. A tenor is slightly bigger and the one dodie recently has is a Baritone and it sounds more "guitary" lol. I think having both a concert and baritone is fun so you should consider getting a baritone in the future ^-^
Nice! I started off with a soprano and then got a tenor. I got a concert for myself on my birthday cause i wanted something that could be plugged in lol. I just got a baritone and its so cool! i figured out sick of losing soulmates on it :D
+LittleLeena I've always been a but conflicted on bari. theyre huge and isn't the tuning different? idk I might eventually work up to tht but as of now tenor will be as far as I go. I don't really like the guitary sound as much.
@Tori McNeece yeah they are! its the tuning of the bottom strings of the guitar. i think getting a baritone ukulele is cool! i have really small hands so i was really meh with the guitar.
I have a Makers Club at School (you literally just make stuff) and Dodie inspired me to make a ukulele. Should i gey soprano strings? What you y'all (i don't know where that came from) reccomend/and what do you think Dodie has? Thanks
@Alyssa Morgan depends what size it is ^-^ dodie has a concert ukulele in this video. If its a smaller ukulele, then get soprano strings, if its slightly bigger then get concert strings :)
honestly this is already very good for a demo but i personally think harmonies instead of repeating the verse during the last repeation of the chorus would be better? since it won't be so complicated to listen to and stuff??????? i don't know anything about music but oh well
+doddlevloggle I disagree, I love how unique that last chorus with the overlapping bridge is! What I would do though is flip them so that the chorus is overlapping the bridge for the first repetition of the chorus. Then for the second I'd pit harmonies with the chorus and take the bridge away so it just ends with the chorus..... dunno if that makes sense but :) x
I agree with Jake, the overlapping fits the lyrics of the song yet it would fit better as the bridge. then mellow it down towards the end with some harmonies. maybe add a little piano as well, just to give some more depth to the music. All in all a great song and glad to see your better now!!
+doddlevloggle the overlapping in one for the road was probs my favourite part of that song (and I bliddy LOVE that song) and I thought it fit very well in this one too! It gives it a very unique vibe 😊
Has anyone noticed this sounds reallll similar to Would you Be So Kind? I love them both so much but it literally only just clicked. Love you Dodie!!!!
i feel like this could build into something really big at the end, like start it off acoustic, bring in so jinglies in the middle and at the end break into like a a full band (or an acousticy sounding band if you get what i mean)
OML I had a dream about Alosia last night and I haven't heard this song yet, but this was the tune. It was in a pj style animation with lots of yellow and flashing colors. You were singing about your new look? We were sitting in a salon and you were like humming and then sung the words "so many styles, hair long as miles. What should I do?" And Backround people sang about which of your hair styles they liked and then you were frustrated because the voices got louder and louder and then these buildings flashed and you took me on a run (still singing) and you told me to sing and right as I opened my mouth and took a deep breath I WOKE UPPPP
this song omL!! its so fucking relatable n gud n creative like jnvlfvjd :) maybe when you come to making a video you want to put on your main channel when it comes to the bridge as well as building up the voices n harmonies you could build it up w some more instruments but if not then man its amazing >< x
sounds very early Meghan Trainor vibe which I LOVE!!! I think you could potentially build up the end when you have "We can make it" and the chorus overlapping by adding harmonies. A drum beat of some kind (maybe just on a cajon as it wold add an extra layer but still make it seem stripped down and natural if that makes sense). I am not much of an expert on layering different instruments but just adding those things plus xylophone would make it even more wonderful :) <3
I think it would be really really fantastic if you did a cover of Clouds by Borns. It's such a lovely song and you are such a lovely person. If you all agree can you give this a thumbs up so she sees it? :)
Can you make all of your covers downloadable on Apple Music if they aren’t already I really enjoy you’re music dodie, I have to thank Emma Blackery and Jackmate for introducing me to your music
I think it would sound good with some smooth clarinet in an added instrumental bridge section under some cool improvised type vocals. But it sounds great already.
Way to improve: Make more songs just like this. I have no musical experience, like I haven't studied music at college or don't play an instrument, but I know good music when I hear it. I love this, because not only is it singer-songwriter, and really clean (ie no autotune etc), but also it sounds so unique; like you don't sound like EVERY other singer on YouTube/ the charts!
Don't mind them, Dodie. There is so much good in this world.. YOU GOT THIS! I only see how bright and wonderful of a person you are, so never let anyone get to you because you know who you are. And you are so much more than just what people see. Remember that whenever people treat you badly, it is just a reflection of their own fears and insecurities. Be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. I love you and everything that you are. >virtual hug< <3
I really loved this but if you're asking me what I want added, a non drum percussion backing of like tamberines and shakers and stuff. in the silent part where you're just singing without and like some cello backing (it sounds like and extension of your voice so it will fill out the silence without taking the emphasis from your voice) and some light piano to go with wherever you place vocal harmonies. It's already brilliant, i just think those things would highlight the best qualities of the song. Peace love and happiness, your amazing Dodie
Dodie Dodie Dodie I looooove this song so much and I cannot tell you how much I can relate to it. For suggestions, I can tell you tried to layer other parts of the song together at the end and I think it would be so neat if you did that part a cappella with harmonies and then the very last line could be just once voice. It's sort of a 'marianas trench' inspired idea but I think it would work so well with this song. If you don't know who Marianas trench is you should listen to them! I get a lot of my song writing inspiration from them and you. I hope you get the chance to read this because I would love if you used this idea somehow. Love you Dodie:)
If anyone's wanting the chords, here's what I've come up with (some might be wrong though) C:
First 2 back and forth chords : F, Dm The little part after that : Gm, C7 The 1,2,3,4 : Bb, then a B7 shifted down a fret (you bar the 3rd fret instead) (not 100% sure about this chord though) The chorus : F, Bm that's shifted down a fret (barred fret = 3rd fret), Bb, and then you'd bar the 3rd fret while playing the 6th fret for the A string
this sing has a very big part in my heart cause is came out when I was going though a VERY shitty time in my life but I didn't want to give up and I my friend at the time wanted to know how I was feeling and I couldn't get it out and this song just said everything I was trying to.now I put on the song every time I feel like crap.it also makes me happy that you put the song at the end of your book
I feel like some percussion (ooo with like bongos or those hang drums) would be cool and also some male/deeper harmonies at the chorus to give it more volume‼ it's a great song tho I like it a lot:)))
To be honest its hard to explain how much I feel like I can relate to this song. I am a woman with a teenage brain attempting to play the grown up game, with constant anxiety and i find myself having to count to four because of my almost daily dizzy spells, which end up making me feel like I'm not even a real person. Sometimes I feel as if it will never stop, and when it is gone, will I even feel like a real person, or will I still be begging for peace? My health keeps driving me crazy, and I no longer have interest in things I used to like doing. I feel as if I have no talent, but I also have no motivation to go out and find my talent. My dizzy spells have even been effecting my work, and I was almost fired because they thought I was lying about my symptoms. I have seen so many different doctors about my dizzy spells, and still no one knows what is wrong. Anyways, thank you Dodie, for putting how I feel into a song.
One of the best, I drive a lot of the times with my eyes closed, and run while lying and eat while diving, I am a sad fade fad faith that makes my life a terrible fate by loving all and hating myself for being me,.. Life stinks being original, w=wicked is a heart all on its own void of only one possion, a love to live anymore. I am tired of knowing and remembering things when I see people, I wish everyone would just never speak or talk or come near me again,.. then I realized :( the world would burn, and I do not want to live in a cave or alone in the vaast void of space.. How the world stinks/,.<>
this song is great "A woman with a teenage brain attempts to play the grown up game" this is a great line :) I'really should do something like alosia to unblock my head I haven't written a song in soo long :/
Now don't get me wrong, all of your songs are beautiful and perfect, but I think I like these alosia songs more that some of your main channel ones. :-)
You might not even respond to this, because you have made this video a while ago. However, I would like to say that this so aesthetically pleasing. You, a very good looking woman, who is very cute too singing a very nice demo, which is so catchy that it should be a song. I just can't..
"A girl with a teenage brain, trying to play the grownup game" makes this sound like the intro to a movie about a girl whos grown up and trying to make it and ajxjakkxkwks dodie you give me good vibes
If you're looking for suggestions for the next demo, you could try changing the dm to a dm7 and the F to (not sure what the chord is called but) 2-0-1-3 (basically the f chord plus a c) I tried it and it sounds really rich. Anyways, I love the song, I hope alosia is going well for you!! This is a really good anthem for maneuvering a busy life especially with mental illness
It didn't feel like a demo to me - I thought it was the finished article! The harmonies at the end were really good and I'd love to see you work on those a bit more, maybe bring it a bit closer to the front? Cracking song though - good work!
The only critique I can think of is at the end when you layer the bridge underneath the chorus, make it a little louder and really jam out on the chorus. Right now it sounds really hesitant and you can barely make out that the bridge is there, but it sounds good! I've been singing this song nonstop for the past 24 hours
First off, this song is 1000% relatable right now. I love it a lot. Secondly, the only critique I have (that no one else has mentioned already) is that the person change back and forth in the last two stanzas (the bridge-y chorus bit?) is a bit off-putting (between "we" and "I"). Of course, I'm not sure if that was purposeful and I missed the point of it! If so, stick with your artistic choice, by all means. But if not, the mood of the song is a little confusing there just because of the word choice switching between a group mentality and just completely being story-telling/first-person. And...this was all a bit rambly. Sorry. Anyway, much love. Looking forward to the (possible/probable?) rest of ALOSIA. :)
Me every time: OH is this new?! who`s alosia!? Is this a song?! clicks .... OHHHHHHH starts singing along knowing every word from every other time ive done the same thing
Does anybody know the different strumming patterns for the different parts of the song???? I cant tell what they are. Also I figured out the chords if anyone wants them just reply 😊
Just broke up with my boyfriend. Hate to sound cheesy but this is the only thing that's stopped me crying, just been playing with on repeat and singing along. Just wanna say thank you to Doddie for making me feel a little bit better xx
One thing that bothers me is that the chords in the beginning (is that what it's called idk I don't do music stuff) sound too similar to some of your other songs. The chorus part sounds so good though.
Oh dodie could you possibly tell us abit about the different ukeleles you have bc you have kinda inspired me to get lessons but I'm not sure what type to start on bc I would love a concert uke but I'm not quite sure yet and as a person of experience in writing and preforming with ukeleles i was wondering if I could learn from you I am studying music theory (not in uni) and love to write songs. J
all the original og Dodie fans thought that the first chords were gonna be the song "Paint" I love that song, the first original song I heard from you, the first video I watched was when you sang One Direction... Awhh memories xD
Ukuleles are so cute omfg... Like if you play a ukulele with really fucking deep lyrics... Most likely the uke will make it sound happier... I love my ukulele omg so cute.... Just like Dodie! JAKDCIDJSKCJDKDOSO
Does anybody know what type (baritone,tenor) and make this ukulele is? Or any others Dodie uses? Or any good ukulele recommendations really, haha I'm needing some help😂😁xx
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Dm for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped! I'm not the best at explaining :') x
I wish one of my friends was your friend and like had a party that I was invited to and you were there. Like. I'd love to just sit and chat. See what your thoughts are like.
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Dm for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped! I'm not the best at explaining :') x
I'm going through your videos and trying to draw your hairstyles because I've seemed to of forgotten how to draw straight hair and faces from different angles. Think I've found my art style, though
I have an idea for extra oomph... it involves a cardboard box (or an actual cajon box drum for them fancy schmancy people), shaker instrument (most likely substituted with rice/beads in a plastic egg), and an baby xylophone toy...
When you tour the east coast can you please tour New Jersey?? I'd be so excited to see you and my parents won't allow me to travel out of state. I know you can't really control where you go but if you get a choice pls keep me in mind!!
This may be a stupid idea and defeat the purpose of alosia lol, but if u really can't think of a song, then instead of maybe getting stressed about it, you could do a type of workshop? Like sort of 'teaching' people how you get inspired to write songs or how you decide what instrument to use and stuff like that, cause it is to do with songs :) I love ur channel btw! xxx
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Am for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped! I'm not the best at explaining :') x
I've been playing a slightly different version C: so yeah the first 2 chords that go back and forth are : F, Dm The little part after that I think is : Gm, C7 The 1,2,3,4 : Bm, then a B7 shifted down a fret (you bar the 3rd fret instead) (not 100% sure about this chord though) The chorus : F, Bm that's shifted down a fret (barred fret = 3rd fret), Bb, and then you'd bar the 3rd fret while playing the 6th fret for the A string
Dodie you probs won't see this bc it's a little late but I soooooo so so want you to put this and all your other amazing songs on like a proper album bc your such an amazing singer and I really want to have all your songs at hand on like a long car ride to belt out myself. Plz plz plz think about it
Okay. Wow. Holy shit u didn't know about this channel until i accidentally stumbled onto this video. Here's your subscription and hell yeah I'll be sticking around.
First song I'm hearing today. You could have your own brand of "awaking clock" ... I really don't know how britains call it. And my brain is not awake enough. STILL love your song.
im really not ready to meet you on saturday im crying i just love you so bloody much oh god its been 3 years and im meeting you and what its happening gees cant wait
constructive criticism for you demo: the beginning bit sounds a lot coffee and toothpaste by Libby. I don't know what you'd change but I thought I'd put in my 2 cents on it! : )
not that this has rly anything to do with the song - but i do not understand why dodie hates her thighs so much. maybe it's because i have kind of a flat butt and thin hips that always made me feel un-womanly, but good god, curvy thighs are so fuckin attractive on girls!!!! i love! the way! they look!! they're just sensual and womanly to me and it drives me nuts that she just doesn't see it that way. sorry if this is weird to say. but god dodie if you're reading this your thighs are bangin and don't u forget it
i think it would be cool to add some xylophone (idk if thats the right word but here it is) to the end part where you're singing the chorus and the other part. idk thats what i think maybe thanks bye pleasereadthis.
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Am for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped!

Hope that helped :) Sorry I don't know some of the chord names oops XD
Definitely add a "drum" beat of some description... not the whole song just parts... actually the claps and click at the start could fit really nicely for the first verse and then add a foot beat in as a stronger one somehow, idk. So the claps for 1 + 2, then a rest until the click on 4 if that makes sense? And I'm not sure what but something to end it because it seems a bit abrupt? I like the singing finishing alone but the uke stops really suddenly? If you add Xylophone like people have said you could just have like a "plink" at the end? Haha <3
You are my definition of a truly wonderful person. Sure, you have your darker days, but I can't even begin to understand how you keep making videos and most of all, keep making the best music this world has ever seen through those days. I have never felt so inspired. Thank you, Dodie Clark. ❤️
I love love love this!! I think chorus would sound so awesome with some guitar/bassy bits and just the whole song with a drum track, making it sound all pop-y and that. Great job on this one!!
i love all of your music and i have been a fan since like 10th grade! (im a first year in college now) wish i could sing with you but im from the states, so ill just cheer you on as i have been. ily dodie!!❤❤❤
I really liked this. I think this is a great demo. I look forward to the day I hear your voice on my radio. You have what it takes. I live your music and I know you are gonna make it big. ;)
I love this style it really sutes you :) I hope alosia is helping you, but please don't do too much, if it's going to do more damage than good. Dodie, you have an audience that loves you and understands if you need some time. Love you Xx
I had a really junky day and I was feeling really down, came to lay in my bed and opened my laptop(which is pretty much always open to youtube) and saw you had a new video. This song, for whatever reason, just made me feel so much better. So, thanks for making my junky day not so junky in the end :)
God I found your chanel like a month ago and I am so in love with you. Your voice is so calm and peaceful it could end wars, and yOUR SONGS???!??! They're so inspiring. Thanks love for making me feel complete even if you don't know me
i learned this song already because i love it so much ahhhh and you are my main uke inspiration!! one thing i did different was in the chorus i used a strumming/chucking pattern instead of muting just to add some more sound. it's like du (chuck) ududu (chuck) idk if that helps haha
You're skills and every sense are beautiful, I love hearing what you have to play. I think a little fast bit would be fun. I dunno if that's your area so if it isn't I love it just as it is but I do belive it would shake it up nicely. I adore you Dooooo dddieeee
Your room set up is gorgeous goals. I always wanted a loft bed but i feel i need a big one for room. Also this song is amazing and i love the beat on the ukulele
I really liked the striking variations here, simple but effective, really adds to the songs. Love seeing that your uke playing has improved so much as well as your vocals. Keep it up!
I know you sometimes talk about having this channel and then your main channel, and i've been watching you for almost 2 edging on 3 years now. I can confidently say I don't even notice when I scroll down my subscription box if its doddleoddle or doddlevloggle, I'm here for dodie and anything she has to say, express or sing. Stella song by the way as always xx continue to do whatever it is you want to do, i shall continue to get excited to see your face in my subscription box.
100% loved it a lot!!!! I really enjoyed the broken down bridge that you then looped through the last chorus, and I think you should build more on that! What you have now is very melodic and nice, but if you build more melodies and start stacking them in that fashion, it could sound super complex. And yes, of course it could get hard to follow, and a bit sloppy, its hard to manage overlapping melodies, but I think that would fit the theme of the song perfectly. starting with something small and simple and have it snowball and overlap into a beautiful ball of harmonic chaos (maybe the tempo could progressively increase), all to have it drop out in the end and finish strong with just you and your uke. What this reminded me of was the beautiful melodics of Ed Sheeran combined with with masterful complimenting harmonics of Jason Mraz's material. Its really great, and I look forward to the final mix! I really do hope you see this. or else i wouldve just wasted a lot of my time.... but oh well, my time is less valuable than yours! :3 bai bai
This was great! I like it just like this, but then I'm not a very musically talented person. :) If you've got a pal who bearbox though, that would sound pretty amazing. Kind of enforce that spoken word poetry vibe I get from your lyrics and anthem-ish tone. :)
if you decide to put your songs on iTunes I will buy ALL OF THEM. I love all of your originals a lot. As for a suggestion, what about adding a lil instrumental intermission partway through the song? some ukulele with humming/whistling would be rad:)
A few things I noticed in this: 1) you put a lot of passion in the beginning and near the end it got messy, passion is probably the best thing to have in music but be careful and play with it the entire time 2) you started out in a chest voice so it sounded deep and then went to a head voice after the second chorus so it skyrocketed from low to high, be careful because this can hurt your vocal cords 3) you're very talented that you can play and sing but watch your elbows if you hold them up like that it hurts your posture and can cause your voice to wobble while singing long tones or rifts
This is an amazing song and I'm not hating, constructive criticism and helpful tips only!❤️
The lines "I may not like my thighs, but at least my body keeps me alive" and "A woman with a teenage brain attempts to play the grow up game" are SO relatable to me, Dods, you cannot imagine! Love you lots, I'm always asking God to bless and take care of you! All the love from Brazil! ❤️🇧🇷
I've had a shit past few days because of depression and anxiety and university but dodie. Thank you so much, I feel somewhat better and relieved. I'm gonna go cry now
AhhHH love it! some suggestions - with the bridge (we can take it, we might break but, etc..) i think that you should either sing the words more clear or change/shorten the lyrics as it was a bit hard to hear what you were saying and i really wanted to bc theyre such lovely lyrics! also i think that the upbeat, poppy nature of the song would be amaaaaaazing with like some piano or even clarinet like in your oh wonder cover, maybe you could thicken the texture as the song progresses so there's more of a climax to make a really awesome upbeat song! I love what you were doing with the uke, esp the strumming pattern - this song will forever be stuck in my head xxx HOPE THIS HELPED LOVE U
I know this may not be much help but I really liked it the way it was. It was pure and that what I love in artist. I am already loving this song even if it is just a demo.
If you wanted to build this into a bigger song, an awesome violin part over the end-ish (super technical term right there) of the song would sound amazing with some guitars too maybe thats only if you wanted to build the instruments. Awesome song though! so so in love. Violin and ukulele paring is an amazing combo
I think that this song would improve if the point of the song in general was a little clearer. I'm going to give it a couple more listens and probably grow to love it like I do with all of your songs, if I don't already like them after 2 seconds 😂
There's this new song out called Brand New Moves by Hey Violet, and I think Dodie would be able to put her own spin on it and make it sound really nice. Not that it isn't already nice, it's just Dodie has a knack for making covers sound better than the original.
I think its perfect the way it is. I like how you adress what you dont like but then realise its okay and look on the brightside. maybe say something about how a butterfly cant see its wings but everyone else can. its a quote. I dont remember who said it though
yes. this. yesss. my tips to improve this song are mostly that you should be sure to sing it on the west coast of the states, so I cant hear it live. Other then that I have no words.
Sometimes you make me think of Audrey from the novel Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella. Have you read it?
“I think what I’ve realized is, life is all about climbing up, slipping down, and picking yourself up again. And it doesn’t matter if you slip down. As long as you’re kind of heading more or less upwards. That’s all you can hope for. More or less upwards.” - Sophie Kinsella: Finding Audrey
In middle 8, try a cutout and build up different, starting with just your uke adding in tune and any harmonies. I think it could sound cool but I haven't tried it so it's just a suggestion but thank you for being such a big inspiration❤️
I honestly can't believe dodie thinks the things she posts on doddlevloggle aren't any good!! to quote the police, every little thing she does is magic
Money makes me sad, having or giving it makes no differential in the existence of the fillings of the bliss, when I have it or don't I hate not eve giving or keeping enough for the rainy dayZ, just saying I never have had a money problem before now>>>Love<<< and do not have enough to meet her now! fairness of the strum ms of the flicks of the nails on the guards of the strings that tweets with me... Money are always the problems even if we had trillions, never bee having to hive enough for we will always need more to save the rote's of this world..
I love how I interpret the songs in a certain way and then read what they're actually about, that says a lot about your brilliant song writing skills dodie and above all how much of a beautiful story teller you are❤️😌
agh I love your lyrics, they really speak to me and I love being able to relate to a real person who is going through something I love these so much it's going to be such a great month
Christ Dodie that was fantastic! I've listened through with a notepad with places that could go, I'm sitting in my studio desperately wishing I had isolated vocal and uke tracks to make you a mixed demo with all my thoughts on it haha! That was killer and you could take that in so many directions, it had a bit of a ska, almost funk kind of vibe and that would lend itself so well to a bit of keys, drums and acoustic guitar to tie in with your vox and uke! Take this one further for sure, you'd have a hit on your hands if you released it! :)
I really love this and all of your music. Your voice and your instrumental skills are to DIE for, and I envy your songwriting skills. But hearing this demo (which by the way sounded phenomenal and I would love to hear a finished version) made me feel really good because I'm starting a band and I'm trying to write songs for my band. I'd love to hear about your songwriting process, both lyrics and music, and also I'd love to hear more demos and rough drafts. Thanks for doing what you do, Dodie
I love the song and you so much, especially when you harmonise with yourself it sounds amazing. And maybe some more percussion like the clapping at the start
i really really love this! and it gave me kind of a twenty one pilots-y feeling, because it's an upbeat ukulele song with kinda heavyish lyrics (depends on the interpretation i guess), and the changes of pace. great job! can't wait to see where you'll be going with this
I love the line about palpitations. I have anxiety and sometimes those palps can really get to me. This is a good song. I am looking forward to the rest of the month!
This was incredible! It would be awesome to hear this with a bit of occasional bass (like a few twanging notes, one at the beginning of each chord change) and a hint of percussion, the chorus was crying out for some maracas/shakers 😏 Actually I wouldn't change a single thing but since you asked the question I could totally imagine it with more!
AAHHH I love the chorus. I was kind of wiggling along to it which I don't usually do (dancing is hard) but yeah I love how it's got a really soft feel and yet you manage to make it sound soulful? I dunno man 10/10 good shit
I love this so much, well done!! If you're gonna change it up I think some backing guitar would be really cool! So excited for the rest of this month of music and wherever else you take it :)
I normally don't comment on anything..but THIS! This song is amazing! I love your work and every song you upload but this one seems to be a little bit different, don't know why, but I love it!! And I love you hehe🙈
I keep thinking alosia is an artist's name so when I first saw it in my sub box I thought I'd already seen it. Anyways, beautiful as always Dodie, so fucking beautiful and relatable. :)
Oh my god this is SO GOOD! I don't really know how to express it but there is something about that song that made me go like "this should be playing on the radio and everywhere else (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧", and I can't shake this feeling that it will. It's the first time I've experimented it so strongly, I'm not even close to work in the music industry or whatever so what do I know right? But yeah it's here and I just had to try and put it in words somewhere so why not bore some people on the Internet with my monologue? :')
Anyhow, a pleasure to listen to, as always :)
*disclaimer: my English isn't perfect sorry if it doesn't make sense
First off, loved your 'rough' rough draft and I think it will make a great demo once you come up with a final draft of it :) Alright so this is just a suggestion but what if you did the song Not About Angels by Birdy (I hope you know that song). Anyways, if you don't feel like singing it then you could just listen to it. I like to listen to it and think of all the people I have ever loved and how they are like angels because they make me feel like something beautiful, you know? That's why I like it, even if it makes me sad :(
while this song may not be about what I'm personally going though the lyrics feel fitting to me right now and I'm really loving it, thank you Dodie your songs always make me feel stronger and braver :)
Overall, this is a well crafted song and very enjoyable to listen to. I especially like it when you mute the strings and strum to create a percussive effect, and the contrast between the different sections. As for where the song could go, I could see this going a few different directions. One idea- First, I might add bass to the 1st verse in the same rhythm you are playing the chords while you are singing to highlight the muted strums, and then have it be more syncopated/active during the chorus. Second, on the chorus I would add drums/percussion. Finally, in the 2nd verse/bridge I would consider maybe adding strings or marimba.
Fair play Dodie, extremely well written, I can't think of many ideas to give, you've got the basis of a really good song here, strong lyrics, structure and transitions and a great feel change from verse to chorus! If this is only the demo I can't wait to hear the finished article!
DODIE I LOVE THIS WHOLE "one song a day" BECAUSE I'm trying to learn more and more songs, I feel like I have to learn every song I come across (on the uke). I've already learned all of your songs already and I can't stooop! Thank you so so so much for inspiring me to start playing music again after some time off, YOURE AMAZING I PROMISE!
Would you consider putting these ALOSIA songs up for download, free or paid? I'm enjoying it a lot and I really enjoy this one, specifically! Even (or especially) if they stay as demo versions and not fully produced.
watch me beg,, for some peeaaas no but I love this so much it's making me really happy thank you for making this it's so nice I can't wait to hear more
I hope you're ok Dodie. I'm in a bit of a rough spot myself, so I may be reading more into the lyrics than is actually there... ... ...anyway, all the best petal.
I saw your snapchat and you were talking about how you didn't like these alosia songs, and you want more time to work on them. But I personally think they are really good, and if you were to make an album I would 100% buy it! Love you!
dodie, i really want to get a ukulele and i want to learn to play, but i have no knowledge when it comes to buying instruments. where did you get your ukulele/what kind of ukulele do you have? i absolutely loved this song as usual, and i'm definitely looking forward to [a lot of] songs coming up :)
Ahhh loving this! Does anyone (or Dodie yourself but I doubt you'll see this comment ;)) know what Dodie uses to add in her harmonies? Also, I have a music channel and I'm looking for ideas for new content to create so if anyone wants to head over to it, I'd be grateful for the support xx
do you ever post like tutorials of how to play your songs? cus they are all so beautiful, and I would love love love to learn something except can't help falling in love
I was just wondering if you wanted to add instrumentation when you said something. I was thinkin a recorder or soft sax on the chorus to harmonize with you. loved the song!
A cute glockenspiel line between the verse and at the chores hardest (like a drum) hits when it goes offbeat and when the bridge bring the drums back in when you start to sing the chores over it again then big hit let it ring out and then say the last line--- hard to explain in text easier in my head
I fricken loved this but it felt like that D# chord didn't fit in at all like at the end of the chours, idk might just be me but MY GOSH the lyrics are amaaaaZe
in this video and the 'peom about my foot' video, i've felt like you looked different, yet oddly similar to someone, i just couldn't exactly put my finger on who. i've come to the conclusion of jennifer aniston.
"Which breakdown should I deal with first" me today. Me. I loved these, I don't know what you are talking about with the good stuff. This is amazing, and a dose of Dodie is just what I needed.
Dodie, your music is truely magical. You help me to overcome my biggest fear. I'm currently sitting underneath the most beautiful sky full of stars while listening your songs. Thank you so much
Dodie I absolutely adore this ❤ I would love to have more of that background voice like when yu said "2" the background voice thingy said "3" and stuff. idk what it's called but i liked it. all in all, just keep doing what makes yu happy and whatever yu feel comfortable with. because truthfully, I and always will LOVE your videos and music, as other people do I'm sure. ❤
yo i really loved this!!!! especially because i feel like you were so much louder than normal! it was a really nice and different sound coming from you dodie, i hope you're proud of this because it was quite lovely to hear :) sending good vibes and some happiness your way xx
I didn't realise alosia was a series so after I listen to the first I went to look it up to add to my Spotify playlist because I love it so much, congrats dodie !
That was really really good omfg Really would love to hear it with more instruments? Piano and maybe clarinet to add a bass part and a simple riff to go on top of everything? (But that sounded beautiful omg ❤️)
I really enjoyed this! I love the contrast between the verse which is quite fast and the slower chorus in which you ground yourself and your ideas if that makes sense..... idk I'm not sure if that makes sense, but you can see you've put a lot of effort into this song and I can't wait to see the final version!!
Also even as a demo, it made my day. Seriously, seriously looking forward to this month of some songs. I told you this in Atlanta, but I genuinely think your insight/talents/brain/and just being are so important on the interwebs lol. Keep creating you're doing great things here Dodie.
Omg dodie how can you makes songs like that which are soooooo gooooood! It was so pop, any thoughts on an indie/alternative style song? But this one blew me away and I was singing along and everything!!
Lovely. Great rich harmonic and rhythmic stuff going on. If you do record a more detailed demo I think you should add some crunchy Stevie Wonder-style electric piano noises. That's what I would do. And a big boomy ringy kick drum. And some really warm claps.
The fact she can write so much songs, that have so much meaning is so inspirational. Seriously song writing is one of the hardest things I could ever do omg
Just thought you should know I picked up my laptop and 'danced' around the house to this song. It's interesting because the lyrics are necessarily light, but the song itself is super fun for my ears to hear. <3
a teenage brain tries to play the grown up game. lyrics resonate with me so much since starting work and exams and being over whelmed with new and scary responsibility's. Helps me put my worries into perspective. it's a beautiful song
I really want to learn this? I beg you share the chords bc I cannot figure them out. I'm not good at that kind of stuff but I seriously love this so much. :)
9998 likes, 7 dislikes. That's an insane ratio. Surely out of 46,809 viewers there are more than 7 with a traumatic expereince fueled hate for the ukelele? Just shows how much we love this.
'A woman with a teenage brain attempts to play the grown up game' 16 year old me thought 21 year old me would be so grown up. But 21 year old me still feels like 16 year old me.. Extremely relevant lyric there Dodie! 🙃
As someone who's mother and step dad are going through a divorce, who's been given a 2 week notice on the fact I'll be moving to another state, who's father and stepmother can't seem to get along, with a very stressed out mind and her senior year looming over her head, this song could not fit more perfectly into my life. Anyways, I'm really excited for alosia, every one of Dodie's songs are usually played on repeat when I get ready in the morning. Or, in this case, while I'm packing.
this is unrelated & kinda irrelevant but does anyone else think that this eyeshadow look looks BOMB on Dodie? really brings out her eyes 10/10 (ps I'm sososososo excited for august bc so far the songs are AMAZINGG good job Dodie!!)
How is this even possible? I'm unable to write a song in a year and here comes dodie with her uke already managing to write two songs in August and it's only the 3rd?!?! God she is great
When you say if you'll miss 'it' - on the chance you mean mental illness, then in my case is definitely didn't miss it, but I felt the lack of its presence... Idk, it's weird
I think the ukelele is nice, but the chorus would be nice if it was turned into a more smooth and deep guitar bit maybe? Also, maybe turn some of the words into a softer and slower sound. Just some thoughts :3
I don't get why you hate your legs, Dodie. They look so good and your butt was unexpectedly large! As you can guess I saw your naked scenes in "Imp of the Perverse." You should do naked scenes more often because it helps you dissolve insecurities about your body. Maybe not immediately but over time. It takes time and repetition to change your brain. I just found out about a youtuber named Britney Simon who had the worst body image issues and was super insecure. She's filmed herself naked on youtube, fully naked, and now even youtube can't stop her because she's so comfortable with her own body. When youtube removed one of her fully naked videos, she reposted it to tumblr video (NSFW): http://brittanysimon.tumblr.com/post/138520529483 It works for everyone the same way. It's called exposure therapy. By exposing yourself to what you're afraid of anxious of in a safe way, you train your brain to stop sending fear and anxiety signals because it starts to realize there is no danger when it doesn't experience harm.
DODIE! I'm so in love with this series! My birthday is August 21st so I'm so happy that you're doing this series in August. I'm also hoping you upload on my birthday 😁😁 thank you for sharing your voice and talent 💘
i like seeing demos bc it reminds a perfectionist like me that there are always beginning stages and baby steps to a masterpiece:-) lovely song dodie<3
Your uke playing has improved so much, you sound so good! Your voice and playing calms me so much, I like listening to your music with the window open and just relaxing 💕
Dodie, I love it when you express your emotions in a song, and I really felt it with this one. To go with the higher energy of this song, I'd love to hear you project your voice even more and put your frustration with being busy into the lyrics. Love ya Dodes, stay strong
I really hope one day you'll release an ep or an album!! All your songs are amazing and I always have a hard time choosing my favorite one. Good good good v v good job!!!! I love it!!!!!!!
Love your new demo. You put yourself out there and you inspire me as a teacher and uke player. Please make sure you are taking care of you....seriously we all need you to be both talented and safe and happy!
This was awesome Dodie!!! You're originals always surprise me. The things I would add to it is harmonies in the last bit (which I think someone else mentioned) and maybe some percussion??? Like a shaker or something would really add to it.
I never comment on videos but for this I had to! This is an amazing demo and I am so excited for the rest of alosia. You've inspired me to start writing my own music (though of course it's not even close to the level yours it at!) I hope your muses continue to inspire and I look forward to see the wonderful songs you come up with!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH DODIE! Your videos make me smile and your songs/covers are beautiful, absolutely love your voice! You are such a big inspiration to me. I also really like how you are so genuine with your audience. ❤️ Keep it up 👍🏼😘
"I think my head is fit to burst Which breakdown shall I deal with first" Generally all the lyrics in this are freaking amazing and could help a lot of people. The first few lines though... Definitely worthy of a main channel upload.
Great stuff! I think it would be really nice for the song to build with the addition of a trumpet, upright bass, drums or other rhythm instruments, and more vocal layering :)
i started dancing to this while eating my mac&cheese. well done dodie, well done :D i love it and it's super great for just a demo also the lyrics are lovely
soo good doddie, I've been messing round on my uke too but nothing comes out as great as all ur stuff! I'm learning peirce the veil one it though which is pretty sweet!
The overlapping at the end was great, and really I just love the structure of the song and the melody :) It's great already, but if I were going to try and bump it up, I might think about some other instrumentation, play around with both a mini rhythm section and solo instruments...? Great work though, Dodie, you're simply amazing :)
I love this, maybe add onto the first bit about so many breakdowns (can't remember the wording) or you could make a series type thing of songs covering the different issues or breakdowns? I don't know. I am just here to listen to your awesome music and random videos 😂 x
I think a clarinet riff would be nice in it - similar to the one in your cover of 'Drive' and a shaker in the background would help add some depth. Some 'ohs' that are inharmonious would be nice at the end as well. I really enjoyed this Dodie!! :)
honestly this was so good. I think you could play around with harmony and experiment with instruments. basically what you did with Permanent Hug on CokeTV. maybe some piano and guitar, harmony etc. but it's already SO SO GREAT. it's so amazing watching you come back from such a bad place and channel it into your music. ❤❤❤❤
Dodie if this stresses you out eventually we will be happy just to watch a cover or an old song of yours!! don't get stressed over writing songs everyday!!!
aaaa you are one of the most talented people who have ever existed!!!! every song is like "woooow dat voice and words and melody and playing thoooo" aaa you are awesome love you❤❤❤
Ooh this is really cool! And I sort of made a song and just!! I'm really excited about it!!! I haven't really recorded it or anything, but I definitely have a base for it and I showed one of my friends and they liked it and :D !!! I dunno I'm just happy with what I did lol
i like the idea of singing the bridge in the background whilst singing the last part but i feel like the build up i, especially in your music!, always look forward to is missing in it (probs bc you wrote it in a day lol). so maybe add some harmonies or clappy bits or whatever for a climax to develop? idek im not a music expert lol
Dodie I'm a musician, and from my viewpoint, that is the most technically creative song and in my opinion the best you have written! Seriously the structure of this is perfect! Yes there is some tweaking that can be done and you will know what is best to do as its your song, however please please please.....do not change it dramatically. Loves x
I know that sometimes you hate your brain but you sure can do some wicked things with it,ngl this is one of my fav songs you have ever written, can deffo imagine jamming to this whilst doing to ironing:D
I think some nice electric guitar just before the chorus starts would work great with this. Add some percussion from first chorus onwards and underlying piano and this would be awesome :)
uhm that was a fucking draft ?! that is like those super awesome artist being like "look at this messy sketch i made in 10 seconds" and its a fucking masterpiece! i really love your work! please keep doing your thing and dont overwork your precious brain :3 see ya ! ^-^
Just a thought - in the title I thought "alosia" was the artist, then I remembered that it was an acronym! I don't want people dismissing your hard work as they might think it's a cover...
What should you add to it, or do differently? It sounded pretty complete to me, and the overlapping stuff at the end made it pretty colorful, and re-enforced the point of multiple overlapping crises. I think it's good the way it is.
You wanted ideas of where to take this: A double bass line underneath perhaps or some gentle violin accompanying yourself and filling in a counter melody towards the end.
I think the lyric "I may not like my thighs but at least my body keeps me alive" doesn't really fit well with the ideas of the rest of the song. But it is still a REALLY good lyric and I think you should write another ALOSIA song with ideas based off of that lyric!
aaaaa i have no constructive criticism/suggestions or anything, just wanted to say this was v v good and kinda of reminded me of Sara Bareilles a little??? !!!!!!!!
ok idk why but while watching this I get the need of animating this song and I donteven know how to animate things. SOMEONE PLS DO IT. like an animated music video idk
I know this really bright and light-hearted type of music is your style, but maybe experiment with adding a bit more. I feel like if there was some bass, it would add a lot of depth! Maybe just low guitar strings or low piano tones, if you have the possibility a bass guitar.
This song was literally incredible. I really really enjoyed it. It was musically interesting with solid vocals and it told a story. 10/10 will break the replay button
I really like this! It has a slightly different vibe then the rest of your music which I'm really digging. Not sure how to explain it but I love the transition into longer, bolder strums on the uke:)
dodie! so proud of you for working your way through this tough time, you are so incredibly strong. these lyrics are so so powerful, keep on going okay i love you 💞
This is SO good. I also think it'll be really good for you to look back on when you're in another part of your life, and sorta reflect on it?... Idrk it made sense in my head ❤️
I absolutely love listening to your music, you're an amazing writer and singer. However, I feel as though on songs like this, you can sing a little louder, at least at certain parts. That's just me, though. :)
Honestly this is really good. I love every last bit of it and when you asked if we had any ideas for it, I was like, "You add some more instruments." In my opinion, the tune of the song is happy, maybe a bit of your baritone uke and a lil cheeky clarinet, maybe? The original song is great as it is though. So if you do decide to change it, have some bloody fun doing it 😃😃
This is so good! The lyrics are so meaningful! I would say to add some guitar to the mix for the main Rhythm to make it stand out more, and even belt out the words more like give it more power, I feel like that would shock a lot of people because you can a really nice floaty head voice :) xxx but idk, I thought it was really good
I've been learning to play the ukulele the past few weeks, and watching this and you're other songs I'm seriously wondering how on earth you don't chip the crap out of your nail polish?
dodie.. you have helped me through so much with your videos.. when im sad or going through a problem your videos take my mind off it. you are my hero. you inspire me to work even harder on my own songs. i love you and i love all your songs.. you are amazing <3 thank you..
This may be a lil weird, but my dog really likes your music. She's usually really rambunctious and rowdy, but once i play a song of yours she gets all mellow :D
This song is amazing for a demo. As far as suggestions go, it might be cool if you tried adding another instrument because your cover of drive by oh wonder sounded really awesome with the clarinet added in.
I absolutley love both of your channels, Dodie. You are my inspiration and I hope we can meet one day because we both live in England! I would just like to say, you have helped me through sad times even though you weren't here with me. It would mean the world for you to notice and read this, maybe even reply? Anyway, your voice is AMAZING and PHENOMINAL! I love everything about you- Love From Takara!
personally i loved the looped track at the end, you could even add more layers to it and have some fun. It reminded me a lot of the song New by Nina Grollman. loved loved loved it
My depression has been worse these days that it's been in the last years, and I don't know, this song makes me believe I actually have something to live for, idk it's weird but thank you ♥
I relate to this song a lot! Im always busy during the school year but when summer comes I miss being busy. This is a great demo and my favorite part is all the harmonies so I suggest to take out the overlap at the end because it kind of sounds messy. But the song is very lovely :)
This is great! I really love all the jazzy stuff you're trying out, A+! I feel like the bridge would be better suited with stronger singing instead of weaker - all the content the same, just less head voice and a little more on the uke. Or maybe starting how you did and getting stronger?
keep on alosiaing dodie, even if we all think your songs are 10/10 you will find your songwritey ways to make it all doddlefied and something you love :)
I think this is about self confidence, being comfortable with your body, idk. I genuinelly liked this and it made me smile because self confidence is not my thing. Great job!😊
ohmy i had my volume maxed and in the first few seconds when you're clapping it made me jump so much i spilt tea all over myself ahhahaha lovely video though :)
it's like there's so many words and rhythms flying around in your head and it's amazing because it means you can produce lots of songs, but is it also kinda mentally destructive maybe?
with your depression and anxiety and overthinking it's like your brain is buzzing with all this stuff.
i honestly don't know you're doing it dodie but you're fantastic woman and i love you and please just never grow up like ever :) xxxx
i honestly think melody wise this is the best song you've ever written. that chorus is just so catchy and really shows how far your voice has come. really looking forward to another demo of this :D
A woman with a teenage brain attempts to play the grown up game BEST LYRIC EVER! you going thought everything with the last past videos as really inspired me to get help, become a better person and to even write songs also! Love you :)
you should add stuff like auxiliary percussion and build til you get to the end vamp chorus thing and do like a lil break down at the end. ily Dodie!❤️
As for what you could do with it...less reserved, more confident...maybe more harmony layers. Maybe even add in some xylophone or other instruments. But as at least one person has already said...it's very good just as it already is, especially for a demo. :)
I know you think these songs are just, fine, but i have to disagree personally I think this song is beautiful! also, it might sound nice on the piano! X
I couldn't leave the house today for various reasons and I was starting to lose hope a bit earlier. But this video made my day a lot better, Thank you xx
I don't know why but I think a horn part in the final chorus/verse would be cool, think long notes followed by very staccato notes. I'm a music person but I couldn't find a better way to say it. And maybe an upright bass part. Make it very jazzy. Great song and message Dodie!
Maybe a short little rap about what you went through, what to do and how to help others who are going through similar things? It was very very good just the way it is in my opinion though!
don't know much about music but maybe for the last chorus instead of doing chords just mute the strings but strum them in the same way so it creates a cool percussion vibe and add harmonies instead?? just a suggestion, love this song :-)
STRINGS! AND BRASS!!! or just like a violin and a trumpet. for the last thingy and chorus especially. maybe a violin harmonising! tbh I'm just a sucker for a sweet violin part the songs already trés bon! ^u^
I have a Mahalo, Les Paul. I think it is very good quality, it comes with good strings and has a nice sound. It's also not overly expensive and looks nice. I would definitely recommend :^)
this is so pretty like this but i think some piano notes would be sups pretty in there!!! e, d, then b would be cute after each line in the choruses maybe??? and then play it an octave higher for the last one???
I'm desperately wishing this song would make a comeback

It's so easy to read, it's packed full of life advice and stories, but most of all, it's brimming with the beauty of a life that's being lived. I cannot articulate the effect Dodie has had on my life - but this beautiful, beautiful book seems to cumulate everything she's done for me. Wow, I love her so much. Thank you Dodie, for helping me learn so much about myself (and stopping me do some stupid things!). Bless you. All of the love and the best for the future you amazing human. ❤

2 likesI know it’s not the meaning, but in my head some of these lyrics remind me of the thought I don’t like school now, but I will miss it when it’s gone and stuff, cause I miss primary school but I’m still in secondary! I’m gonna listen to this after I leave, (which is in a while, but sooner than I think I guess!) and see how I feel

0 likesI really liked how upbeat and fun this song was, and I really liked the melody and chord progression.
254 likesHowever I think that the "silent" parts (idk what those are called) before the chords themselves are better fit in the middle 8. In the verses it sounds great but in the chorus it just gets a bit repetetive and comfusing, particularly the first time I listened to the song. Also, I think that you could shorten the lyrics a bit when they're too fast (ex. AND i will break again)so it's both easier for you to sing and for us to listen. Another thing is that before the chorus and before the second verse the instrumental kinda felt a bit too long but I didn't mind.
Sorry that I wrote so much, but I'm just telling you my opinion. I'm obviously not a professional and I'm not gonna tell you how to do your job. However I think if you work on it a little more and dress it up a bit it will sound even better! :D

0 likesjust put it on your main channel ahhhh its so good. plus, the music and rhythm depends on what the artist wants. I think the change of strumming and chord progression adds a unique part to the song. Also, an important part is always seeing if you can get someone to tap their foot to the beat near the beginning and throughout the piece. All I have to say is well done :)

1 likeAhhh Dodie I'm obsessed with this, it's so fun :') Also in terms of what you could do it I think maybe if in the second chorus you built it up with another instrument or two maybe a cajon drum and a piano or something similar and maybe added harmonies? so that when it's goes into the bridge it's had this slight build up and then it dies down? But generally I think it's already perfect to be honest :D

Thank you : )
as soon as this came out i taught myself the ukulele bit and I'm thinking about doing a cover of it <3 it's a beautiful song and you're a beautiful lyricist Dodie! You're one of my biggest inspirations

0 likesI think we might need an Alosia album of all the songs she makes this month.
4 likesaah I love this so much :)
0 likesMy only suggestion would be that there's this technique called panning (I think?) where you have the instruments or singing in each ear, so for example you could have the chorus in the left ear, and the bridge in the right ear. (that way you can have them both at the same volume, because the bridge part was a bit quieter and harder to hear than the chorus, unless that was intentional.) (i'm also not very good at explaining things :D )
Wow I think this is yiur best song so far! I really like all the cool strumming stuff you did. And when you sang over it in the background. Bravo!

I love the lyrics they're ingenious, and the ukulele is spot on. Are you planning on adding any other instruments? It sounds as though it's missing something. The ukulele is like the base instrument for the song, it just sounds like it needs something more. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel as though the ukulele needs like another instrument friend to harmonize with. But I absolutely love the song I wish I could buy it!!

which breakdown shall I deal with first
I have to close my eyes
to keep my thoughts inside
how many palpitations can you take on
10 confrontations and I’m still standing strong
I may not like my thighs
but at least my body keeps me alive
so let’s breathe one two three four
till the world gives you some more
do you think
it’ll ever stop
will I miss this
when it’s all gone
watch me beg
for some peace
and when it comes
I won’t be done
How did I get on this path
time and fate are trying to make me laugh
A woman with a teenage brain
attempts to play the grown up game
we can take it
we might break but
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end
yeah we will lose it
You know we’ll use it

Towards the end, you did a lil overlap with like background singing (i don't know the right word for it lol) but it kind of sounded like a jumble of words (with an amazing voice :3) so maybe instead of singing in the background while the main voice is singing, you should sing in the background between the lines of the main voice.

0 likesReplies (1)
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Dm for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped! I'm not the best at explaining :') x

With the potential to be a good day or a bad day and I wasn't sure how I could make it into a good day and I thought and thought and thought and the more I thought, the more scared I became of it being a bad day, but then I watched your videos and listened to your songs, the sad songs and the happy songs and they just made me feel better and I stopped obsessing over what kind of day it was going to be, and now that I have, I can feel that it's a good day because I somehow feel so relieved.

I DON'T KNOW somebody please help me decide D:
4 likesps: HEY Dodie i loved this song! it's so happy sounding <3
Replies (23)
I've played Ina non-clear plastic uke and the wood one feels better quality to me, but I honestly haven't played for a while
1 likeCongrats on getting a uke! I've had mine for years & love playing it.
2 likesI've played both kinds & in my experience, it's best to try out the types you want in person. Plastic and wood ukulele's sound a bit different, but everyone has their own opinion on which they like better.
For technicalities, Plastic is more durable & easier to clean. I've played the Makala Waterman (which they have in CLEAR) & i find it quite good :D Wood is the traditional ukulele looks & some say it sounds better.
Yes it's less durable, but it isn't fragile either. Dropped mine plenty, but still plays good with it's battle scars.
My biggest advice, if you're excited about your uke, you'll wanna play it even more :) You should like the one you buy
Good Luck dani!
Heh sorry that was so long 😅
1 likeHeyyyy haha, woo more ukulele players! So like yee I totally agree plastic ukuleles can look so cool and are easier to clean and such and it being clear would be cool but if you really want a good sound, get the wood. Ukuleles were originally wooden and a wooden one is gonna get you the best and clearest sound.
0 likesthanks everyone for the help! i think i'm going for the wooden one (even tho the clear one is really cool). Maybe i'll get the other one in the future, who knows :)
0 likesHello! Wooden things are always better when it comes to instruments :) if you want a quality ukulele, I recommend a Makala. It's a cheaper alternative to their brand "Kala" but it's still the same quality and stuff! Although, the ukulele I have is a Luna, and it's really nice and resonate! A concert is a good ukulele size. They go from Soprano, Concert, Tenor, to Baritone. Try to find a good wooden concert ukulele ^-^
0 likes@LittleLeena thank youuu, and, do you know what size is Dodie's uke?
0 likes+Dani dodie has a concert uke but it's still in the standard gcea tuning ( I think), but these ones tend to be a lot more expensive than the soprano ukes. I don't know if you want to start to play bc then a soprano uke in the same tuning would be better in my opinion just because it's a lot cheaper for someone to start with. However, if you want something that's amazing quality and has a great sound and stuff (and if the prize doesn't matter) a concert one can be a better choice. I hope I helped you and I hope it's ok that I responded even though the question was not dedicated to me :D
0 likes@Lola Lovely thank you for your help ^-^ and btw, i just came home from the shop. I ended up buying a wooden concert size uke, cause i find the soprano one to be too small and like, i can't hold it properly xD and a friend who knows a lot about music went with me and helped me so i'm really happy with what i got (according to him, the one i got was cheaper than expected, and it was really good quality, so everything's a ok)
0 likes@Dani yay good for you! I'm glad you found something you really like, have fun playing! I have a uke myself and I love to play so I hope you enjoy it just as much :D
0 likes+Dani what uke did you end up getting (like rand and model)?
0 likes+Tori McNeece the brand is freeman and with the model you mean if it's soprano or concert and that? cause if so, i got a concert size :)
0 likes+Dani I knew it was concert, but normally brands have many different kinds of the same size uke. like I know Kala (for example) has a wide variety of concert ukes from beginner
0 likesto very high end
+Tori McNeece ohhh, i don't know then, this was the only concert type uke i saw in the shop
0 likesi think you already got a response, but she has a concert. People usually start off with a soprano, it being the smallest. A tenor is slightly bigger and the one dodie recently has is a Baritone and it sounds more "guitary" lol. I think having both a concert and baritone is fun so you should consider getting a baritone in the future ^-^
0 likes+LittleLeena I have a concert and I'm actually probably getting soprano soon before I work my way up to tenor and bari
0 likesNice! I started off with a soprano and then got a tenor. I got a concert for myself on my birthday cause i wanted something that could be plugged in lol. I just got a baritone and its so cool! i figured out sick of losing soulmates on it :D
0 likes+LittleLeena I've always been a but conflicted on bari. theyre huge and isn't the tuning different? idk I might eventually work up to tht but as of now tenor will be as far as I go. I don't really like the guitary sound as much.
0 likes@Tori McNeece
0 likesyeah they are! its the tuning of the bottom strings of the guitar. i think getting a baritone ukulele is cool! i have really small hands so i was really meh with the guitar.
I have a Makers Club at School (you literally just make stuff) and Dodie inspired me to make a ukulele. Should i gey soprano strings? What you y'all (i don't know where that came from) reccomend/and what do you think Dodie has? Thanks

7 likesYOUR PROFILE PICTURE
0 likes+doddlevloggle I disagree, I love how unique that last chorus with the overlapping bridge is! What I would do though is flip them so that the chorus is overlapping the bridge for the first repetition of the chorus. Then for the second I'd pit harmonies with the chorus and take the bridge away so it just ends with the chorus..... dunno if that makes sense but :) x
13 likesyee i agree mainly cause i have autism and when that came on i was like 'GAH WHAT IS GOING ON'
2 likes#autismspectrumprobs
I agree with Jake, the overlapping fits the lyrics of the song yet it would fit better as the bridge. then mellow it down towards the end with some harmonies. maybe add a little piano as well, just to give some more depth to the music. All in all a great song and glad to see your better now!!

0 likesOML I had a dream about Alosia last night and I haven't heard this song yet, but this was the tune. It was in a pj style animation with lots of yellow and flashing colors. You were singing about your new look? We were sitting in a salon and you were like humming and then sung the words "so many styles, hair long as miles. What should I do?" And Backround people sang about which of your hair styles they liked and then you were frustrated because the voices got louder and louder and then these buildings flashed and you took me on a run (still singing) and you told me to sing and right as I opened my mouth and took a deep breath I WOKE UPPPP

0 likessounds very early Meghan Trainor vibe which I LOVE!!! I think you could potentially build up the end when you have "We can make it" and the chorus overlapping by adding harmonies. A drum beat of some kind (maybe just on a cajon as it wold add an extra layer but still make it seem stripped down and natural if that makes sense). I am not much of an expert on layering different instruments but just adding those things plus xylophone would make it even more wonderful :) <3

I only see how bright and wonderful of a person you are, so never let anyone get to you because you know who you are. And you are so much more than just what people see. Remember that whenever people treat you badly, it is just a reflection of their own fears and insecurities. Be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. I love you and everything that you are. >virtual hug< <3

It's already brilliant, i just think those things would highlight the best qualities of the song. Peace love and happiness, your amazing Dodie

0 likesDodie Dodie Dodie I looooove this song so much and I cannot tell you how much I can relate to it. For suggestions, I can tell you tried to layer other parts of the song together at the end and I think it would be so neat if you did that part a cappella with harmonies and then the very last line could be just once voice. It's sort of a 'marianas trench' inspired idea but I think it would work so well with this song. If you don't know who Marianas trench is you should listen to them! I get a lot of my song writing inspiration from them and you. I hope you get the chance to read this because I would love if you used this idea somehow. Love you Dodie:)

0 likesIf anyone's wanting the chords, here's what I've come up with (some might be wrong though) C:
0 likesFirst 2 back and forth chords : F, Dm
The little part after that : Gm, C7
The 1,2,3,4 : Bb, then a B7 shifted down a fret (you bar the 3rd fret instead) (not 100% sure about this chord though)
The chorus : F, Bm that's shifted down a fret (barred fret = 3rd fret), Bb, and then you'd bar the 3rd fret while playing the 6th fret for the A string
Hope that helped :)
this sing has a very big part in my heart cause is came out when I was going though a VERY shitty time in my life but I didn't want to give up and I my friend at the time wanted to know how I was feeling and I couldn't get it out and this song just said everything I was trying to.now I put on the song every time I feel like crap.it also makes me happy that you put the song at the end of your book

0 likesTo be honest its hard to explain how much I feel like I can relate to this song. I am a woman with a teenage brain attempting to play the grown up game, with constant anxiety and i find myself having to count to four because of my almost daily dizzy spells, which end up making me feel like I'm not even a real person. Sometimes I feel as if it will never stop, and when it is gone, will I even feel like a real person, or will I still be begging for peace? My health keeps driving me crazy, and I no longer have interest in things I used to like doing. I feel as if I have no talent, but I also have no motivation to go out and find my talent. My dizzy spells have even been effecting my work, and I was almost fired because they thought I was lying about my symptoms. I have seen so many different doctors about my dizzy spells, and still no one knows what is wrong. Anyways, thank you Dodie, for putting how I feel into a song.

You're doing so well, young lady!
Yours faithfully,

Don't give up hope. "She" is however many years old and it still got produced.
1 likei still come back here the chorus is so BOMB
0 likesIf you're looking for suggestions for the next demo, you could try changing the dm to a dm7 and the F to (not sure what the chord is called but) 2-0-1-3 (basically the f chord plus a c) I tried it and it sounds really rich. Anyways, I love the song, I hope alosia is going well for you!! This is a really good anthem for maneuvering a busy life especially with mental illness

0 likesMY FAV SONG BY DODIE NOW
0 likesThe only critique I can think of is at the end when you layer the bridge underneath the chorus, make it a little louder and really jam out on the chorus. Right now it sounds really hesitant and you can barely make out that the bridge is there, but it sounds good! I've been singing this song nonstop for the past 24 hours
0 likesIf I could like this multiple times I would.
0 likeshey Dodie ! can you do a cover where you wouldn't sing in falsetto?? something new from you that I would like to see you do :)!!!
0 likesHi Dodie it's Rosie, thanks for my video, also I love this song so muchxxx😃
0 likesFirst off, this song is 1000% relatable right now. I love it a lot. Secondly, the only critique I have (that no one else has mentioned already) is that the person change back and forth in the last two stanzas (the bridge-y chorus bit?) is a bit off-putting (between "we" and "I"). Of course, I'm not sure if that was purposeful and I missed the point of it! If so, stick with your artistic choice, by all means. But if not, the mood of the song is a little confusing there just because of the word choice switching between a group mentality and just completely being story-telling/first-person. And...this was all a bit rambly. Sorry. Anyway, much love. Looking forward to the (possible/probable?) rest of ALOSIA. :)

Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Dm for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped!

0 likesI've been playing a slightly different version C:
0 likesso yeah the first 2 chords that go back and forth are : F, Dm
The little part after that I think is : Gm, C7
The 1,2,3,4 : Bm, then a B7 shifted down a fret (you bar the 3rd fret instead) (not 100% sure about this chord though)
The chorus : F, Bm that's shifted down a fret (barred fret = 3rd fret), Bb, and then you'd bar the 3rd fret while playing the 6th fret for the A string
Hope that helped :)
I mean Bb instead of Bm in the 1,2,3,4 part

0 likesReplies (5)
Okay so as far as i can tell (i covered it on my channel and this is what i worked it out to be) the verse you play F then Am for 2 up strums and then just the first finger on the first fret of the third string for one strum and repeat, for the "I may not like my thighs" it's Gm and then A7 for the 1,2,3,4 you bar the first fret and then play the second fret of the second string and then for the chorus it's F, the 3 fret barred, the chord for just played on with the barred first fret and then the third fret barred again and then the bridge is the same as the chorus just lighter and strummed differently, I hope that helped! I'm not the best at explaining :') x
1 likeF then Dm*
0 likesI've been playing a slightly different version C:
1 likeso yeah the first 2 chords that go back and forth are : F, Dm
The little part after that I think is : Gm, C7
The 1,2,3,4 : Bm, then a B7 shifted down a fret (you bar the 3rd fret instead) (not 100% sure about this chord though)
The chorus : F, Bm that's shifted down a fret (barred fret = 3rd fret), Bb, and then you'd bar the 3rd fret while playing the 6th fret for the A string
Hope that helped :) Sorry I don't know some of the chord names oops XD
I mean Bb instead of Bm in the 1,2,3,4 part

Definitely add a "drum" beat of some description... not the whole song just parts... actually the claps and click at the start could fit really nicely for the first verse and then add a foot beat in as a stronger one somehow, idk. So the claps for 1 + 2, then a rest until the click on 4 if that makes sense? And I'm not sure what but something to end it because it seems a bit abrupt? I like the singing finishing alone but the uke stops really suddenly? If you add Xylophone like people have said you could just have like a "plink" at the end? Haha <3

Stella song by the way as always xx continue to do whatever it is you want to do, i shall continue to get excited to see your face in my subscription box.
0 likes100% loved it a lot!!!! I really enjoyed the broken down bridge that you then looped through the last chorus, and I think you should build more on that! What you have now is very melodic and nice, but if you build more melodies and start stacking them in that fashion, it could sound super complex. And yes, of course it could get hard to follow, and a bit sloppy, its hard to manage overlapping melodies, but I think that would fit the theme of the song perfectly. starting with something small and simple and have it snowball and overlap into a beautiful ball of harmonic chaos (maybe the tempo could progressively increase), all to have it drop out in the end and finish strong with just you and your uke. What this reminded me of was the beautiful melodics of Ed Sheeran combined with with masterful complimenting harmonics of Jason Mraz's material. Its really great, and I look forward to the final mix! I really do hope you see this. or else i wouldve just wasted a lot of my time.... but oh well, my time is less valuable than yours! :3 bai bai

0 likesIf you've got a pal who bearbox though, that would sound pretty amazing. Kind of enforce that spoken word poetry vibe I get from your lyrics and anthem-ish tone. :)
if you decide to put your songs on iTunes I will buy ALL OF THEM. I love all of your originals a lot. As for a suggestion, what about adding a lil instrumental intermission partway through the song? some ukulele with humming/whistling would be rad:)
0 likesA few things I noticed in this:
0 likes1) you put a lot of passion in the beginning and near the end it got messy, passion is probably the best thing to have in music but be careful and play with it the entire time
2) you started out in a chest voice so it sounded deep and then went to a head voice after the second chorus so it skyrocketed from low to high, be careful because this can hurt your vocal cords
3) you're very talented that you can play and sing but watch your elbows if you hold them up like that it hurts your posture and can cause your voice to wobble while singing long tones or rifts
This is an amazing song and I'm not hating, constructive criticism and helpful tips only!❤️
The lines "I may not like my thighs, but at least my body keeps me alive" and "A woman with a teenage brain attempts to play the grow up game" are SO relatable to me, Dods, you cannot imagine! Love you lots, I'm always asking God to bless and take care of you! All the love from Brazil! ❤️🇧🇷

0 likesOk, this is SO FREAKIN' GOOD
0 likesAhhHH love it! some suggestions - with the bridge (we can take it, we might break but, etc..) i think that you should either sing the words more clear or change/shorten the lyrics as it was a bit hard to hear what you were saying and i really wanted to bc theyre such lovely lyrics! also i think that the upbeat, poppy nature of the song would be amaaaaaazing with like some piano or even clarinet like in your oh wonder cover, maybe you could thicken the texture as the song progresses so there's more of a climax to make a really awesome upbeat song! I love what you were doing with the uke, esp the strumming pattern - this song will forever be stuck in my head xxx HOPE THIS HELPED LOVE U

0 likesChrist Dodie that was fantastic! I've listened through with a notepad with places that could go, I'm sitting in my studio desperately wishing I had isolated vocal and uke tracks to make you a mixed demo with all my thoughts on it haha! That was killer and you could take that in so many directions, it had a bit of a ska, almost funk kind of vibe and that would lend itself so well to a bit of keys, drums and acoustic guitar to tie in with your vox and uke! Take this one further for sure, you'd have a hit on your hands if you released it! :)

0 likesActually I wouldn't change a single thing but since you asked the question I could totally imagine it with more!
Why is your music always so perfect? Even when you don't LOVE what you write, we all do! I wish I could be half as talented at composing as you!
0 likesI really like this song! I don't know what to add, I'm not very good in the songwriting section, but it sounds nice to me!! Great job! <3
0 likesAAHHH I love the chorus. I was kind of wiggling along to it which I don't usually do (dancing is hard) but yeah I love how it's got a really soft feel and yet you manage to make it sound soulful? I dunno man 10/10 good shit
0 likesThis is truly amazing you voice is on point

0 likesI keep thinking alosia is an artist's name so when I first saw it in my sub box I thought I'd already seen it.
0 likesAnyways, beautiful as always Dodie, so fucking beautiful and relatable. :)
Honestly this is fit for doddleoddle I can't believe how good this is.
0 likesA demo?! It's so good already
0 likesthis is so snazzy and jazzy i love it
0 likesso snazzy and jazzy, in fact, that you could even bust out the clarinet again
Oh my god this is SO GOOD!
0 likesI don't really know how to express it but there is something about that song that made me go like "this should be playing on the radio and everywhere else (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧", and I can't shake this feeling that it will. It's the first time I've experimented it so strongly, I'm not even close to work in the music industry or whatever so what do I know right? But yeah it's here and I just had to try and put it in words somewhere so why not bore some people on the Internet with my monologue? :')
Anyhow, a pleasure to listen to, as always :)
*disclaimer: my English isn't perfect sorry if it doesn't make sense
For a demo... this is pretty amazing.
0 likesI LOVE THIS SO MUCH :,)
0 likesThis is one of those songs that cold be slow or angry but you went for this almost bubbly way and I love it!
0 likesHer voice is gorgeous sounds like a goddamn angel does she have an album?
0 likesFirst off, loved your 'rough' rough draft and I think it will make a great demo once you come up with a final draft of it :) Alright so this is just a suggestion but what if you did the song Not About Angels by Birdy (I hope you know that song). Anyways, if you don't feel like singing it then you could just listen to it. I like to listen to it and think of all the people I have ever loved and how they are like angels because they make me feel like something beautiful, you know? That's why I like it, even if it makes me sad :(

0 likesYou are actually so amazing omg
0 likesI love the song so far x
0 likesOverall, this is a well crafted song and very enjoyable to listen to. I especially like it when you mute the strings and strum to create a percussive effect, and the contrast between the different sections. As for where the song could go, I could see this going a few different directions. One idea- First, I might add bass to the 1st verse in the same rhythm you are playing the chords while you are singing to highlight the muted strums, and then have it be more syncopated/active during the chorus. Second, on the chorus I would add drums/percussion. Finally, in the 2nd verse/bridge I would consider maybe adding strings or marimba.
0 likesAmazing😊 this made me so happy
0 likesDAMN your songs are so cute and always make me 1000 times happier
0 likesFair play Dodie, extremely well written, I can't think of many ideas to give, you've got the basis of a really good song here, strong lyrics, structure and transitions and a great feel change from verse to chorus! If this is only the demo I can't wait to hear the finished article!
0 likesDODIE I LOVE THIS WHOLE "one song a day" BECAUSE I'm trying to learn more and more songs, I feel like I have to learn every song I come across (on the uke). I've already learned all of your songs already and I can't stooop!
0 likesThank you so so so much for inspiring me to start playing music again after some time off, YOURE AMAZING I PROMISE!
Would you consider putting these ALOSIA songs up for download, free or paid? I'm enjoying it a lot and I really enjoy this one, specifically! Even (or especially) if they stay as demo versions and not fully produced.

0 likesdodie, i really want to get a ukulele and i want to learn to play, but i have no knowledge when it comes to buying instruments. where did you get your ukulele/what kind of ukulele do you have? i absolutely loved this song as usual, and i'm definitely looking forward to [a lot of] songs coming up :)
0 likesAhhh loving this! Does anyone (or Dodie yourself but I doubt you'll see this comment ;)) know what Dodie uses to add in her harmonies? Also, I have a music channel and I'm looking for ideas for new content to create so if anyone wants to head over to it, I'd be grateful for the support xx

0 likesOmg if you're gonna add to it I think it'd sound super cool with like clicking?? Or some kinda percussion in that chorusy bit lol xxx
0 likesA cute glockenspiel line between the verse and at the chores hardest (like a drum) hits when it goes offbeat and when the bridge bring the drums back in when you start to sing the chores over it again then big hit let it ring out and then say the last line--- hard to explain in text easier in my head

do you think
it’ll ever stop
will I miss this
when it’s all gone
watch me beg
for some peace
and when it comes
I won’t be done
How did I get on this path
time and fate are trying to make me laugh
A woman with a teenage brain
attempts to play the grown up game
we can take it
we might break but
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end
yeah we will lose it
You know we’ll use it
I’ve broken before and I will break again
so give me some more
I’ll be here till the end
Dunno if anyone posted it already, but here it is!
Youre so freaking cute and i love this song

I've missed you using piano in your songs.
0 likesSo if there's any way to incorporate that sound?
How is this even possible? I'm unable to write a song in a year and here comes dodie with her uke already managing to write two songs in August and it's only the 3rd?!?! God she is great
0 likesthis could sound really good with a box(?? is that what it's called?? Idk) imo, just a thought

0 likesI think the ukelele is nice, but the chorus would be nice if it was turned into a more smooth and deep guitar bit maybe? Also, maybe turn some of the words into a softer and slower sound. Just some thoughts :3

0 likesThis is a demo but where is it
0 likesI don't get why you hate your legs, Dodie. They look so good and your butt was unexpectedly large! As you can guess I saw your naked scenes in "Imp of the Perverse." You should do naked scenes more often because it helps you dissolve insecurities about your body. Maybe not immediately but over time. It takes time and repetition to change your brain. I just found out about a youtuber named Britney Simon who had the worst body image issues and was super insecure. She's filmed herself naked on youtube, fully naked, and now even youtube can't stop her because she's so comfortable with her own body. When youtube removed one of her fully naked videos, she reposted it to tumblr video (NSFW): http://brittanysimon.tumblr.com/post/138520529483 It works for everyone the same way. It's called exposure therapy. By exposing yourself to what you're afraid of anxious of in a safe way, you train your brain to stop sending fear and anxiety signals because it starts to realize there is no danger when it doesn't experience harm.

I think a clarinet riff would be nice in it - similar to the one in your cover of 'Drive' and a shaker in the background would help add some depth. Some 'ohs' that are inharmonious would be nice at the end as well. I really enjoyed this Dodie!! :)

0 likesi like the idea of singing the bridge in the background whilst singing the last part but i feel like the build up i, especially in your music!, always look forward to is missing in it (probs bc you wrote it in a day lol).
so maybe add some harmonies or clappy bits or whatever for a climax to develop? idek im not a music expert lol
Dodie I'm a musician, and from my viewpoint, that is the most technically creative song and in my opinion the best you have written! Seriously the structure of this is perfect! Yes there is some tweaking that can be done and you will know what is best to do as its your song, however please please please.....do not change it dramatically. Loves x

This song is amazing for a demo. As far as suggestions go, it might be cool if you tried adding another instrument because your cover of drive by oh wonder sounded really awesome with the clarinet added in.

0 likesI relate to this song a lot! Im always busy during the school year but when summer comes I miss being busy. This is a great demo and my favorite part is all the harmonies so I suggest to take out the overlap at the end because it kind of sounds messy. But the song is very lovely :)

This is great! I really love all the jazzy stuff you're trying out, A+! I feel like the bridge would be better suited with stronger singing instead of weaker - all the content the same, just less head voice and a little more on the uke. Or maybe starting how you did and getting stronger?
0 likesThis is soooo good, just add a shit tone of harmonies because you're ace at them and I'll be forever jealous🤘🏻

0 likesit's like there's so many words and rhythms flying around in your head and it's amazing because it means you can produce lots of songs, but is it also kinda mentally destructive maybe?
0 likeswith your depression and anxiety and overthinking it's like your brain is buzzing with all this stuff.
i honestly don't know you're doing it dodie but you're fantastic woman and i love you and please just never grow up like ever :) xxxx
I think this is utterly brilliant and the only thing I can think to suggest is a key change for the final chorus? 💙

0 likesalosia is gonna help me get through the first month of school honestly
0 likesyou should add stuff like auxiliary percussion and build til you get to the end vamp chorus thing and do like a lil break down at the end. ily Dodie!❤️
0 likesAs for what you could do with it...less reserved, more confident...maybe more harmony layers. Maybe even add in some xylophone or other instruments. But as at least one person has already said...it's very good just as it already is, especially for a demo. :)

0 likesHey guys! I want to write a song for Dodie, leave Dodie related things in a response to me so I can I add it in the lyrics. Thanks guys!
0 likesI don't know why but I think a horn part in the final chorus/verse would be cool, think long notes followed by very staccato notes. I'm a music person but I couldn't find a better way to say it. And maybe an upright bass part. Make it very jazzy. Great song and message Dodie!
0 likesWill there be a fully mastered Alosia album at the end?
0 likesThe description needs to chill. This is where the good stuff is.
0 likeswhat kind of ukulele is that? I'm looking for a good ukulele because mine rn is crap. lol and btw I love your videos Dodie !
0 likesMaybe a short little rap about what you went through, what to do and how to help others who are going through similar things? It was very very good just the way it is in my opinion though!
0 likesdon't know much about music but maybe for the last chorus instead of doing chords just mute the strings but strum them in the same way so it creates a cool percussion vibe and add harmonies instead?? just a suggestion, love this song :-)
0 likesYour hair looks really nice in this

I have a Mahalo, Les Paul. I think it is very good quality, it comes with good strings and has a nice sound. It's also not overly expensive and looks nice. I would definitely recommend :^)
0 likesYou should get a tenor. I also switched from guitar to uke, I started off with a soprano but the tenor uke just sounds so much nicer then a soprano
0 likesbest birthday present ever
0 likesi liked it but i know nothing about music and harmonies and stuff. but it sounded good
0 likesthis is so pretty like this but i think some piano notes would be sups pretty in there!!! e, d, then b would be cute after each line in the choruses maybe??? and then play it an octave higher for the last one???

0 likesAs for another version, more harmony and maybe you can add some piano at some bits or xylophone? Twinkly bits, innit.
0 likesI'd say add another instrument and possibly you harmonizing with a deeper voice.
