This was my entry for the 2024 Express Yourself Contest. It's a song about feeling lonely and not quite fitting in but that we're okay in the end. I should probably mention that I played everything myself and recorded with Cubase Pro. Awoooo! Art by Retrotenn. (Thank you retrotenn!)
I CAME THIRD! WOOOO! Thanks to everyone who voted!
Here are the lyrics to my song "I will be Okay":
Everything is so far from me.
I don’t know when I can come back.
I’m Stuck inside my head believe me.
Sometimes I am braindead, and you'll see.
I am so far away from home but it’s okay I’ll live another day.
Tomorrow everything will be okay.
It’s not easy I will find a way.
I will be okay I’ll be okay.

Glad to see another Cubase user for a change! Not my usual jam, but it does sound pretty
Oh, thank you. Recorded straight through a Shure SM7B and UA Apollo Twin interface. Does the job pretty well. Was great fun recording this song and looking forward to doing it again next year.
Really cool! I don't like, ever see music on Furaffinity?? Not something I usually partake in! but this was a treat I was glad to hear.

The Glockenspiel was an A+++++ addition
Love your vocals, and the arrangement is so damn polished! A minute that wastes not a second :D

Hehehe. thank you. Yeah, that was the plan. Get some nice transitions in there. Glockenspiels are great. :)
This had such a magical, aloof atmosphere to it. It's very well blended in terms of textures and has an ethereal quality to the vocals, reminding me of some of the 60s and 70s bands such as The Beatles, and Brainstorms song "Maybe". I voted for you in the finals for the contest as overall your song has a very unique style and mood to it that I just love. Keep going my friend. I wish I was still composing to have entered when this was on going. Maybe in the future when I eventually get back into music. Just been dabbling here and there so far. Really love what the furry fandom has brought in the last 10 years that I've been on Furaffinity as a musician.. Lots of talented and unique artists from all over the globe with their own styles and quirks. <3
Thanks very much. Well, I came third so that is something. It is bittersweet though, as because I came third on the podium I can not enter next year. Perhaps you can enter next year. :D
Thank you for your kind comments too.
Thank you for your kind comments too.
You're welcome, and I didn't know that you can't enter next year if you get placed in the top three! We'll see. I am slowly trying to get back into music. It's a struggle with ADHD and autism. I once got burnt out creatively about 6 years ago. Still recovering. I do love music and how you can put emotion into it and let others feel something different with their imagination.
I also have ADHD and I agree it is hard sometimes to overcome procrastination. All one can do is try. Perhaps you should just give it a go and see where it will take you. Creativity lives inside us no matter how much it has gotten lost in the maze of our minds.
