Hey everyone! :)) It's been a long time since my last song! I have some good good news for you, I've released my new EP "For Your Dreams". The song I want to show you is called "Scared Of Nothing". It's the second song on the EP! It represents lightness and freedom in your actions, when you don't really think about the various consequences, but just do it. Sometimes you really want to be scared of absolutely nothing. You should understand that everything is in your hands, the main idea is to not be afraid of it. This song is a reminder of that feeling.

As always, I'm asking you to give your opinion on the song. If you have listened to the whole album, let me know as well! :)))

Thank you so so much



Lyrics:

Open your eyes and see
There's no horizon, no sheets
Don't be so hard on living
Searching for the purpose out here

Can you believe
After hundred years
We all will disappear
So why to fear
Every little thing that's happening to me

I wanna be scared of nothing
Like going alone to your home
Please promise me I can outlive
All that happened to me long ago
It's just another saying
"Face the fear you're portraying
Keep the breath, continue praying
Fake it till you make it"
But I just wanna be scared of nothing
Hope that day will come

I don't wanna talk about the dinner tonight
I have a lot of thoughts, but you're one on my mind
I look so into conversations, but I'm zoned out
The only thing I know that you'll never find out

Writing in my journal, manifesting my wants
Laying on the floor and doing shadow work
Living old same life like always stepping back
I'm doing something wrong
And I do know that

I wanna be scared of nothing
Like going alone to your home
Please promise me I can outlive
All that happened to me long ago
It's just another saying
"Face the fear you're portraying
Keep the breath, continue praying
Fake it till you make it"
But I just wanna be scared of nothing
(A-a-a-a-ah)

(Oh-u-u-u-u-u)
(Oh-o-o-oh)

I wanna be scared of nothing
Like going alone to your home
Please promise me I can outlive
All that happened to me long ago
It's just another saying
"Face the fear you're portraying
Keep the breath, continue praying
Fake it till you make it"
But I just wanna be scared of nothing
Hope that day will come

This is a lovely song @Maya Clars full of beautiful youthful positivity and I love the sentiments. Don’t be scared of anything, go for it ! Did you play the guitar on this one too ? It fits in just right, a real singalong summer festival good vibe song. I love the interweaving backing vocals that compliment the excellent lead vocal. It’s got a 60s hippy vibe with a modern twist. Excellent

@Maya Clars  You have a lovely "indie" style voice that works really well on this track. I could hear this as the soundtrack on a Netflix movie. Love the variation in pacing and the chorus is catchy but unpredictable.

Hi @Maya Clars

  I love the way the vocal is so free and glides around the guitar like two birds dancing in the sky. The arrangement builds beautifully and fully complements the lyrics which I particularly enjoyed as you can impose either the optimistic or pessimistic reading on them. Is the singer hoping for more or desperate for hope?

CCB.

Very nice how you stick with vocals and guitar (?) for so long and then subtly build. There's a "jauntiness" to this which is summery and youthful. But some darkness too - sadly many still need to be scared to walk home alone. And Fake it till you make it definitely has its place. круто!

Very pretty song @Maya Clars - I think it's probably my favourite of yours so far.

Lyrics really resonate - with the hint of something dark larking in the past.

Arrangement is spot on - simple and building.

The melody on the chorus hook is SO catchy!

Well done, again :) !

A very lovely song @Maya Clars that has such a pretty melody and a wise and optimistic message. Your voice easily allows for a simple accompaniment being one of those breathy, indie vocal styles that is so easy on the ears.

Catchy choruses always help and this one hits the perfect spot. The instrumentation builds up delicately, but again just enough.

Good luck with the EP 👍

Hi Maya, I love it.  I have listened to the rest of the EP and it really os good and so on point for what's around these days.  But this is my favourite track, maybe because it's guitar based (so raw at the start as well!) but also the pace this moves along at is perfect.   

What's not to like, it should be the lead track.

Hi Maya.

What a sweet,delicate song,so sensitively sung.

These days I'm very aware of the passing of time and the very short period we have here. This lovely song captures perfectly that feeling of mortality.

Freud said to really enjoy life we must be fully prepared to die. Your song carries a similar level of profundity.
