2024-07-19 21:49:01 +0000 UTCThe beginning phrase & melody remind me so much of a certain song and I cannot remember what it is it’s driving me crazy! I think it’s by a female vocalist..

2024-07-19 20:59:21 +0000 UTC* Oof IRL Noises * Few notes did hit, this one holds potential indeed, background setting fits as well. I'd play this while working on set. Tack for sharing Mate 🐺 🐾

2024-06-28 05:34:55 +0000 UTCJoel, you deserve to be happy!! You’re a good person, very genuine and kind. You shouldn’t have to ask for permission to find your happiness!! All we want for you is for you to be happy. You work so hard to make us and others happy…YOU deserve to be happy as well!! No need to ask!! Don’t “wait until the very end”!!

2024-06-27 17:38:26 +0000 UTCSorry for the very length.. this topic is just something that hits to the core. I've heard somewhere that meaning can be more fulfilling than happiness.. that happiness is always fleeing, because the only certainty that exists in life is that it will change at some point. And we know that on some level, even in the moment of actual happiness. Maybe because of this, we shouldn't aim for it or chase it as a "thing," but when we "receive" it (as a sort of byproduct of a well-lived life), then fully celebrate it (enjoy it), but also not hold on to it too much. It's been true for me, at least.. that whenewer I was really happy, it wasn't because of anything I did, it was sort of like a "gift" when "stars aligned" and created an almost magical moment or perfect circumstances - in a way, a chance of luck. But it eventually came to a norm again or became a new norm. And I think it might be true for someone who seems to have it all as well (on social media, etc.).. there will always be someone to compare themselves to. And someone at the very top might be afraid to lose that position (which for someone can be even more of a pressure), or don't have health, etc. We never know what goes behind closed doors, but I'm sure it's not as perfect as it can seem. To have everything on a "silver platter" (wealth, success, or simply what you want) maybe isn't a win either, because it doesn't require growth, there's no immersion in it, nothing to really lose (or gain). It kind of reminds me of The Sims.. when I got the cheat code, I quit the game. I think I find the most fulfilling growth (real, not forced). Like when you look back at your life and see (and feel) how far you've come from where you started (hopefully in a good direction) - this fulfillment is much deeper than happiness, which can disappear. Like if you live every day the best you can (whatever that can mean for you - and it can change too), that's enough. In a video about traveling was this quote.. "Perhaps the most important journey we're all on is learning to be ok with what's happening" - I think I agree, it's also hardest thing to do there is (but it brings peace) ❤️

2024-06-27 14:11:37 +0000 UTCOh man, I can definitely relate to this. 😔 I don’t think you should feel that you have to put off happiness or be afraid of it though. Try to stay positive and trust that things will work out 💜

2024-06-27 05:07:04 +0000 UTCWow. Not quite sure how this short song clip depicted exactly what I’ve been feeling the last few months. So deep. Would like a full version of this in the future if possible. Also, would like to mention that this is the most comfortable version of you that I’ve seen thus far.

2024-06-26 23:59:08 +0000 UTCMy heart ❤️ thank you for sharing these, Joel. Your talent seems to know no bounds
Leah Miranda
2024-06-26 23:34:54 +0000 UTC🥰 Aww, in like with this one a lot. Also, these daily Patreon posts have me missing your “I’ll see you tomorrow” sign-off (from back in the day when you did daily uploads). Anyone else feelin’ nostalgic? I get that this is practice for you, but I also appreciate ya spoiling us 😄

2024-06-26 20:38:05 +0000 UTCI've always struggled with this, too. "Any minute now, my ship is coming in." 😔

2024-06-26 19:37:51 +0000 UTCThese Lyrics hit hard. This was me a few years ago, until a took a step back and decided to just start doing stuff now. Something I read, to paraphrase, basically said that 'we're very good at preparing to live in the future eg. get a degree, work towards promotion, save for a house, but not very good at living in the now, even when we get where we wanted to, something else comes up'. The song is beautiful, and you're definitely finding your comfort zone.

2024-06-26 15:59:54 +0000 UTCWell this is a little bit too realistic… def gonna need more of it to play on repeat 🙃

2024-06-26 15:50:27 +0000 UTCthat's a good track! Just wanted this one to be chiller I guess lol
Joel Berghult
2024-06-26 15:11:53 +0000 UTCBeautiful song, I can relate 🧡 but there's no need for permission to be happy (right now), life really is too short for that
Nina L
2024-06-26 15:08:40 +0000 UTCI think it’s because the “some unique event” sounds a little more stuttery than “real life to begin”.
Dorie
2024-06-26 15:00:59 +0000 UTCYou’re definitely looking comfortable at this point. Your voice is sounding great. Are you back to taking lessons, or is it just because you’ve been singing a lot more. Whatever it is, it’s working for you. 💕
Dorie
2024-06-26 15:00:08 +0000 UTCI don’t know, this leads me to: hope springs eternal —>it’s the last thing that dies. Now I wonder, if someone loses it, does that means he’s dead and is it possible to resurrect🤔 Thanks for giving food for thought!
N M
2024-06-26 14:52:07 +0000 UTCThe lyrics are relatable and the track is giving 2000s Daniel Bedingfield vibes. Just wondering what the lyrics would sound like if they were on a track similar to The One That Got Away by Katy Perry so you get the sadness but it’s more upbeat, if that makes sense? 🙂

2024-06-26 14:51:46 +0000 UTCGreat, got it!
Joel Berghult
2024-06-26 14:46:55 +0000 UTCSorry - I don't like the stuttering pace and pauses. It feels a bit disjointed to me. Yep - I should have said what I didn't like.
Cas
2024-06-26 14:43:04 +0000 UTCThanks! Re: not liking the song, please explain why if you don’t like something! That way I can understand more, without explanation it just becomes a little negative

2024-06-26 14:34:50 +0000 UTCIt can be tough to feel like you're allowed to celebrate super small wins, when looking at friends and they are getting married, having babies, getting promoted, buying houses etc. It's so easy to compare and feel bad about it...

2024-06-26 14:33:43 +0000 UTCMy honest thought when I hear this is: life's too short, be happy now.. 🥲

JustSomeJK
2024-06-26 14:23:42 +0000 UTCNot sure I like the song but watching the process is great. I think you are getting more comfortable. Don't forget to take a beat when you end so the viewer doesn't see you going to turn off the recording.
Cas
2024-06-26 14:20:13 +0000 UTCGetting better at it

2024-06-26 14:20:04 +0000 UTCThis seems more natural, like you're getting used to singing in front of the camera again lol.

2024-06-26 14:19:42 +0000 UTCThese are getting better!!!! I love it
