Jenny T's video: Roraima Jenny T Original - Just a Thought Album

First song off of my album that's coming out soon! I'm really proud of this song as it was the first time I've really produced everything myself and played guitar with more than just 4 easy chords ahah! I chose to put this as my first song as sonically and lyrically, it best describes the state of mind that I've always been in. I hope you could listen to it! If you like it, please feel free to share it to your friends and stay tuned for my upcoming album :) PERSONNEL: Jenny T (Patraporn Thongplengsri): music and lyrics writing, arrangement, recording and producing, Vocals/BG vocals, Acoustic/Electric guitar, Electric bass, Keys, MIDI sequencing, artwork Brian Petry: Drums Brian Losch: Mix Marc Frigo: Master A LITTLE (MAYBE A LOT) ABOUT THE SONG: 'Roraima' is the name of a mountain in Venezuela; a place I've always dreamed to go since middle school. This song is not necessarily about Mount Roraima but about a dream I used to have; when a dream comes true, it immediately turns into another mundane reality that soon leaves our heart longing for more. I've come to realise that my dreams are just protections I've created for myself, illusions of an escape; a place where I can find total control in a life where I feel like nothing is truly mine. These thoughts and feelings have created a heavy cloud of loneliness that has kept me feeling empty and detached from the world. Yet, the only reason I can't truly let go is the fact that I still want to be loved and remembered, still want to create something that is more meaningful than my own life and last longer than my own body. Ironically, I've created an escape from this world just so I could forever be a part of it. I want this song to sound like how it would to be standing on the top of a mountain ... you’ve come all this way but in the end it means nothing. It hurts to stay there but hurts more to leave. I've spent a big part of my life living for someone else's dream even though I knew very well that one day it was bound to break, wasted my time trying to reach something that instinctively I've always known was unattainable.... To me, this fact is scary, yet relieving at the same time. Everyone is tired but we are still trying our best; I think that in itself is a beautiful thing. In the end, all illusions and dreams stem from a place of unconscious truth and honesty that can reveal the reality better than anything if only you have the courage to confront your own heart. I want to be brave and courageous and create something that can help others to do the same. I hope this song can speak to someone :) *** I will upload this soon on Itunes, spotify etc. along with my album so please stay tuned!

Is this a dream, Is it still a dream if we never wake? Ironically I'm not so sure now if I want to stay Look how far we've come We're on the top but why do I feel so small? And as the fog shield lays out it's hard to see The ground beneath Though that's where I used to be I can't stay here This air's too heavy But if I jump now I'm scared you'll forget me I'm scared you'll forget me (Don't forget me) Is this a dream, Is it still a dream if we never wake? Ironically I'm not so sure now if I want to stay
