This is a slightly older demo I did on my own but it's been living rent-free in my head. Considering finishing it up, what do you think? With some cleaned up pronounciation of course lol :P

Lyrics:

Feel it slowly creeping up on us, mm

Nothin' we can do is good enough, mm

Suddenly seeing you just don't feel the same, no

Something is wrong with my brain


Overexposed

Feelings can fade

Overexposed

I shouldn't have stayed

I know how it goes

But it's new to you

Overexposed

How will you do?

Will you feel we're through? x4


Nothing makes you smile it's all a chore, mm

All your favorite things just make you bored, oh

Suddenly seeing you just don't feel the same, no

Something is wrong with my brain


Overexposed

Feelings can fade

Overexposed

I shouldn't have stayed

I know how it goes

But it's new to you

Overexposed

How will you do?

Will you feel we're through? x4


How much of a good thing is too much?

How much of a good thing is too much, yeah

How much of a good thing is too much?

How much of a good thing is too much, yeah

I like the vibe... what do you think you would change?

AnovaSig

Those high notes tho 👀 😍 We see you! 😁

Shauna

The rangeeeeee 👀👏🏻

Alle Engdahl

Well dang it now it’s gonna be living in MY head rent free. 🔥

ValorBee

I love it 🥰 also your pronunciation is perfect don’t overthink it. I can’t wait to hear more new music from you. I legit listen to Until I Have You on repeat everyday ❤️

My fav demo so far… a few personal notes: “Will you feel we're through?”.. sounds very muddled.. I kept hearing “you feel it too” The synth it a bit overpowering your voice… but this is a demo sooo 🤷🏼‍♀️ And the ending seemed to come out of nowhere… I think it would’ve felt more cohesive if you either had that line popped in somewhere else in the song OR ended the song after that with just you singing a line something like “Will you feel we're through being overexposed?” In a more quiet fade out to make it seem more part of the song instead of just tacked on But this one is seriously my favorite one shared on here since so selfish

MediocreAtBest

Appreciate you including the lyrics in the post. Was totally mishearing the main question line in the chorus.

Vikki

Funky fresh 😎

Mari

ugh can't wait to listen to this one, the lyrics alone 😻💛

Clair (Teampanda)

Patrick Stump called he said he wants his high notes back! Honestly your high vocal runs *chef kiss* I think you can get away with singing through some of the pronunciation as long as it doesn't sound too garbled. You can never be as bad as the girl who thought Mariah Carey sang "I can't lib, if libbing is without you!" X

Dannielle O'Neill

This feels like you had a lot of fun with it! It feels "looser" to me, in a good way. idk how much sense that word makes lol. Like, despite pushing the range and it being different, you leaned into it. Like the whole thing, but the ad-libs and hums are now stuck in my head.

Karmas05

Really interesting, I like the vibe. The pronunciation sounds good to me 😀. I love it 😍

emy

Totally know what you mean about the looseness, and agree!

Dannielle O'Neill

Also! THIS ish right here is why I'm on Patreon! (And thanks for that boost after a shit day. ❤️)

xtina 🖤

I love this, the way you sing is perfect, don’t change that too much please :) Love the lyrics so much. I think the music is a cool vibe too but could be tighter or something- which i’m sure it will all be perfection when finished. Thanks for the preview!!

loonylovesgood

I’m at work but as soon as I get home, I can’t wait to listen!

Dorie

Very funky. And as always, love your lyrics.

Courtney Walker

It's definitely a vibe! I couldn't help but bop to it midway through.

xtina 🖤

lol i read that as “loser” at first .. and was like.. beck? But loose, yes, agree he sounds amazing but like he’s not even trying, just flows well, i’m bad at explaining-lol

Melinda Young

I really like it so far. Pretty catchy

Lianne Conroy

Love it. Repeating the lines 4x feels like a little too much for me but otherwise it's fantastic

Bookdragon 43

Love the energy in this song!! I was definitely vibing to it while listening to it just now! 💓💖👏👏🔥

Mari

Now this.. THISSSSS is what I expected the other song to be like or at least within the same vein. If you keep going in this direction.. 👏 you'll be fucking g o l d e n 👏 (in more ways than one 😏). 💛

x0_Kristin_0x

Dope.... Yes that is my only input. I'm very helpful 😂😂😂

Luna

I know, the chords are not the same but Midnight Sky fits very well with this. Would be a nice mashup 🤭 seems like you have to finish this song for the next episode of songs that shouldn't work together but do. But seriously: it sounds catchy and nice. You don't need to change too much about the voice. Do your magic with the instrumental and it'll be awesome 🔥

Sugary Magnolia

Not bad, not bad 🤔 Has potential but feels a little flat if that makes sense. But I'm sure you'll be adding infinite hooks and layers, not to mention maybe 500 additional vocals? 😆 I do love the lyrics!

Kathell

I love the melody and tone of this song but I feel the repetition of the some of the lines could be improved. I hear you comment on your YouTube channel the you don’t like songs that are repetitive. Putting that aside I really did enjoy the song.

TR

Very nice 🤌 Amplificar aún más el bajo

Sabrina Detchon

I like the vibe. I'm not a fan of the gang vocals at the end. Just my thought: Since that part is repetitive, all that sound is too much of a good thing, lol. I kind of think if you pulled back on each repetition of "how much of a good thing is too much" and then ended with powerful punch on the last, that would tie in the idea of "feelings fading" but then emphasizing the frustration at the end. At least that's how I interpret it. Keep doing the good work!

Annelies

I totally agree. Guess you want to repeat the lines because you sing about overexposing 😉 Love the way you use your voice as an instrument, like with all the different rhythms.

Miia Dembele

Love those high notes 😍This sounds really good already.

Cas

Definitely a dance vibe. Woke me up nicely this morning. Bring down the volume of the high notes in the final mix or you'll attract puppies. Like it!

SpyroShurtagul

I love these 80s synths! This actually reminds me a lot of Mystery Skulls which is super duper awesome! ^_^ Oooooh I love that ending!!! That's awesome!

Franceska

Nice and catchy, from the very first verse; melody stucked in my head immediately 🔥🧡

Jen 🦙

The 80s vibe I like is definitely there, it's just missing something. The idea of putting a triplet rhythm at the end of the second chorus with a breif instrumental break to emphasise what you're about to say in the outro is coming into my head but I don't know if that would work? 🙂

Cas

Not necessarily a bad thing. Just something to watch out for. 😜

Calize

I love how the lyrics are so opposite to the vibe… would def be better if you cleaned the pronunciation a bit. I think you generally have a mumbly type of singing in all your songs, making your vowels overly round.. it’s just part of your music 😊

Amberlash

Love the 80's vibe. A few have mentioned it being maybe too repetitive which could be the case, but when the song is fully produced musical elements could make that not seem so bad, and sometimes the repetitive chanting vibe works. You mentioned cleaning up your pronunciation and (I'll preface this by saying I love your voice and I mean this in the most "constructive criticism" way possible) I think your pronunciation is your biggest issue in a lot of your songs, but it's actually not too bad in this one. I'm not a vocal coach but I have been singing for all my life and man would I love to try to help you get the most out of your voice, I think you can do so much with it. Anyway I am definitely interested to see where this song goes!

Roomie

It's super early and a lot of copy paste, it will def be spiced up when/if I finish it!

Roomie

This demo is a bit older from when I was really into melding vowels together, if I were to record final vocals it would sound more like "Bit By Bit" or "So Selfish" pronounciation wise :)

Hayley

Heyy, this is nice. Although you can tell its incomplete so at this point 'criticism' (constructive or other) is pretty much void. It reminds me a LOT of Darren Hayes- the high notes and the way he manages to combine 80's and disco sounds and make it sound natural. It's different from what I was expecting which is always good. I don't disagree with what others have said about the repetition but as Amberlash said, if it's filled with more instrumental/backing etc it will definitely flow better. Looking forward to hearing more of this. (Also, I can't say I particularly noticed any pronunciation errors, maybe I'm just so used to your voice/accent that it passes me by. Or I'm really bad at my own language 😂) Anyway, thanks for sharing, keep it up xx

JustSomeJK

Once again I love the lyrics 🥰 I think u should definitely finish it, otherwise it would be a waste of a great lyrics and a catchy song 🙂 This song is 🔥 and very funky. It makes u wanna dance and it's impossible to not bop the head and tap the foot to it. And that melody is really nice too 😊 I'm not sure about the repetition at the end, if it's too many times or just the right amount to fit the message, if that makes any sense. But I agree with some others, that it's probably perfect when u are done with working on it 🙂 I like those MMs, NOs and OHs at the ends a lot and that interesting change in the rhythm on the "Something is wrong with my brain" later in the song 🙂 Loving ur vocals, those high notes are 🔥 and I like the breathyness of ur voice on some of the parts 🥰 That's all I will say now, since it's not finished and I'm sure u will add layers and all kinds of cool embellishments to it, so that it will just keep on getting better and better 😁 Hopefully we'll end up hearing this as finished up song some day 💙 I wonder what all kinds of other gems are hiding rent-free in there 🤔😁 Something else that I have been wondering is that which comes first... lyrics or melody or do they come together sometimes..or is it a different process for different songs for u 🤔?

Sofía Reyes

The harmonies and runs... Delicious!! Love it love it love it

Dannielle O'Neill

I agree here. Tbh, I don't want to hear you sound like everyone else. Wouldn't be here if I just wanted more of the same. 🤷‍♀️

Magdalena Slodczyk

Man, you make me wanna hear the finished version so much. Like... I really want it to be a thing ❤️‍🔥 I'm vibing to much. I really like the effects on "overexposed", but somehow not so much on the following lines for some reason 🤔 maybe it's just too much in one go. Definitely wanna hear more of the song in future! 💙

Sugary Magnolia

Can't wait to hear updates! Share progress and changes with us even if you eventually decide to scrap it please?

Brandt

Wow, so many great songs in your catalogue. They deserve to be out there for everyone to listen to. I understand why you have taken some time of YouTube to focus on the music.

"How much of a good thing is too much" is such an elite lyric! Talk about an earworm. I really like the groove of this one. Thanks for sharing these demos with us!

Gayle

This was so clean and still a really good vibe. It is so much more enjoyable with the passion you can put forth. The beat and rhythm is so catchy that if I could dance ... would really move . Thank you so much for the preview. You ARE so incredible and I do enjoy all your effort.

Pachan Nicole

I love it. It’s got such an awesome vibe.
