J. Maya - “Amber” (Live Looping Version)

many, many moons ago, i’d written & posted a demo of a song called “amber” (inspired by fossils) & a few of you had asked for a full version! i’ve been having some fun with looping & production lately, so i decided to take a stab at building out an instrumental track & looping a full version of the song ☺️ i definitely had fun taking some ~poetic license~ l with this arrangement; if you enjoy these kinds of videos, please do let me know & we can get some more couch looping sessions 🫶
“amber”:
secret keeping
led to feelings creeping;
yeah, i was young
when you promised the world
glinting pendants
to balance being reckless
but when you left, i was still your girl
everytime i crawl back in your skin
i always wonder why you let me in;
guess you can’t outrun history
when it’s such a mystery
why we ever ended to begin
you & i, we’re frozen in
amber,
you touch me & it’s like i just remember
where we’ve been
i will surrender
‘cause everytime i try in vain to let go
you let me win
forget about the ancient stuff,
‘cause it’s got nothing on these
fossilized remains of love
i wonder what they’ll call us (x2)
resurrection
after world destruction,
when meteors kept showering from the sky
(& with the storm)
your promises of permanence saved us both from getting crushed,
oh, & the remnants of resentment fade to black & bleed to dust
i’d scorn the sun for you to keep me warm

the song is great! though i think it would be cool if you made an acoustic version? kinda like the original demo if that makes sense lol, though this more pop version is cool too! i just think 2 versions could be cool
