This indie pop song explores the disillusionment and heartbreak that can result from meeting one's celebrity idols or heroes in person, as reality often fails to live up to the idealized perception in one's mind.

We Are Poets

Jungle #5

“Shout Down the Clouds” is a ballad of quiet resistance—anti-anger, pro-reflection, soaked in wisdom. It’s not defeatist—it’s disillusioned with noise. You’ve written a folk song for the emotionally exhausted and the chronically online. It’s a lament for the lost art of listening, in the key of "we tried yelling, and it didn’t work."

【氷山キヨテル / Hiyama Kiyoteru】うみたがり - Umitagari【SynthV Cover】(+SVP)

Geh nicht so weit 
Warum läufst du mir davon?
 Ich dacht, das hier bleibt 
Hast mich doch grad erst gewonnen

Kenn das noch vom letzten Mal 
Kenn das alles und ich hab den Scheiß hier nicht verdient 
Weiß noch wie es damals war
 Hab’s nicht vergessen, auch wenn ich so tu, als wär’s mir nie passiert
War ich nur 'ne Phase, 
Wurd ich idealisiert?

 Fern von Realität 
Fern von dem was du wirklich liebst
Nie echt, war nur projiziert
Während ich hier Filme schieb

Kenn das noch vom letzten Mal 
Kenn das alles und ich hab den Scheiß hier nicht verdient 
Weiß noch wie es damals war
 Hab’s nicht vergessen, auch wenn ich so tu, als wär’s mir nie passiert
War ich nur 'ne Phase, 
Wurd ich idealisiert?

Auf nem Podest mit meiner Höhenangst 
Sahst mich in Farben, die ich niemals war
Für dich perfekt  doch innerlich längst krank
Ein schönes Bild, das kein ein echtes war

Chad Everett is a guitarist, pianist, vocalist, and producer.  With slick R&B bass lines, layered guitars, sweet vocal harmonies, and Latin Jazz-inspired beats, his music embraces the groove.

Phrases and Phases Publishing is a one-man label, archive, and reality-refraction field. Founded by J. Adam Walters - lawyer-turned lyricist, satirist, and architectural dropout from polite society - it's the home for songs that shouldn't exist, poems that go to far, and fictional universes with better paperwork than the Library of Congress. 

From folk elegies to parody rap to theocratic cartoon trauma epics, everything here is written by a human who uses AI as a collaborator and instrument rather than an outsourced brain, and finished only when it reaches a space where laughing hurts, or hurting laughs.

Vocal synth cover artist, will mainly be using Hiyama Kiyoteru.
