Guitar & voice by me

Once there was a snail
And his name was snail o’neill
He looked up at the sky
And thought boy I’d love to be a parrot

Then I could screech and squawk very loud
And be heard all around
With my colorful feathers in the air
I’d never get lost anywhere

Once there was a parrot
And her name was Patty the parrot
Patty was flying in the sky
When she thought boy I’d love to be a polar bear

Then I could swim deep deeper
In the blue ocean water
Swim far far further ]
Make friends with a friendly otter

**but when I fall fall from the sky
It don’t matter who am I
A parrot or a snail
As long as you’re by my side

Mmmm

Once there was a polar bear
And her name was Polar Bear Penelope
She was swimming in the ocean
When she thought boy I’d love to be a fish

Then I could swim with a friend
Around every river bend
Our school of fish
To depend on and defend

Once there was a fish
And his name was Fishy Mcfosh
He was swimming in the river
When he thought boy I’d love to be a lion

Then I’d be strong and mighty
As brave as can be
The king of the jungle
That just might be me

**so when I fall fall from the sky
It don’t matter who am I
A polar bear or a fish
As long as you’re by my side

Mmm

Once there was a lion
And her name was Lily the lion
Lily was prowling among the trees
When she thought boy I’d love to be a human

Then I could fly high in the sky
Dive deep in the ocean
Read and write and learn to count
Do so many different things

Once there was a human
And his name was Harry/Jude the human
He was running a marathon by the beach
When he thought boy I’d love to be a snail

Then I could go very very slow ……
And it wouldn’t be slow at all
Fall asleep on grass and climb up walls
No one to shout presto let’s go

**so when I fall fall from the sky
It don’t matter who am I
A lion or a human
As long as you’re by my side

Mmm

"a deep. wistful, nostalgic sense of longing for home; a yearning grief for people and things long gone"

Well there we go, another EP :)! This one is a bit different than the last one, its not lofi, its not rly hiphopbeatthingwhateveryouwannacallit, its more subtle, more ambient and melancholic I guess. It's more of a personal album, as it does showcase some different emotional stages that I have gone through in the last couple of months, it has been a rollercoaster and it still kind of is, but oh well.
In any case, hope you enjoy these tracks. And I hope they appeal to a larger audience, and I especially hope that some people can relate to these tracks, and maybe even find some sort of comfort in at least one of them. PEACEEEEEEE

VIDEO GAMES by @lanadelrey 🎮
My friend @yeujia came up with this brilliant arrangement of Video Games with Philip Glass-inspired piano accompaniment and asked me to sing on it ☺️ It’s pretty amazing to collab with someone far far away (Singapore -> NYC). After weeks of back-and-forth on this, we are happy to share our little piece with you. Thank you to Lloyd Kikoler for recording/mixing it.
