That voice Power, charisma, energy, emotion Wow Just wow Im at a loss

[@brookemichalik9390]

If you love her voice here, you should hear her singing “I’m not pregnant, I’m just fat”. It’s comical genius and perfect for her

Do they think I'm pretty Do they wanna take me home It's just a preference What a pity Will I always be alone? Look I exist Stretch marks, ripples in my cheeks and thighs Still I resist Keep on telling myself little lies Next week I'll change it, I swear it But most days I just grin and bear it Fifty pounds ago I was still not their cup of tea Jagged little pill They don't sleep with big girls like me Try to cover the trouble parts Now when I don't, the rumbling starts Oh my God ain't she Brave Don't tell her she should feel pretty She's brave Try to exist In the body that I got now Still I resist Hoping it'll change somehow Yesterday I asked for a new skin to borrow But I'll be rocking a bikini tomorrow And they'll say Oh my God ain't she Brave Don't tell her she should feel worthy She's brave Wiggle, squish, and jiggle Workin' on loving you baby Bounce and roll and ripple You're a part of a strong lady I'll be dancing, on my floor Getting sore, growing more Wishing a way back to before Trying to ignore the Do they think I'm pretty Do they wanna take me home It's just a preference What a pity Will I always be alone? No! 'Cause I'm so Brave Loving every inch is Oh so brave I'll always work a little harder While you play the martyr So come up with something smarter to say Than I'm so Brave I already know I'm brave I know I'm brave

Thank you!

[@nabs5239]

god i feel every word and have and still do experience this everyday :( i dont think people understand what this song means tho its about how whenever a fat/big person is confident and loves their body, theyre called brave. as if its something that is sO oUt oF thiS wOrLd. like "woah.. a fat person likes their own body and doesnt care about what others think? thats so unrealistic.. its so brave" like people dont understand how thats such a backhanded compliment. like i wish people said i was pretty and not "love the body confidence!!"

[@thallium6754]

i'm so glad someone pointed this out; i kept wondering if anyone was actually picking up on it since no one had mentioned anything about it in the comments - but i think it's really important for people to understand.

[@victoriasawyer1176]

This comment should be on top!

[@cadencev5572]

I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T KNOW. I NEVER OUTRIGHT SAID IT, BUT I THOUGHT IT. I MEANT WELL, EVEN IF IT WAS JUST IN MY MIND.

[@shiannachastain5446]

It's a contest, there are 500 song submissions for musical theater original songs. They choose 5 and record them with broadway singers.

[@larkinthedark1579]

^ what they said. It's a contest that allows singer-songwriters to show their skill and hope to win for their song to be performed.

The claps at the beginning remind me of “Boho Days” from Tick.. Tick.. Boom! It’s cool how much that clapping pattern can set up different vibes through this song and Boho Days!
