jupiter flynn - difficult times

a little corona song I wrote last year! :)

lyrics:
Meet new people that will make you feel alright
How do I meet people, when I’m not allowed outside?
Distract yourself, do something you like
The only thing I do is writing songs about you

Do I meet up with you and risk other people’s lives?
Do I stay inside, watch you having the time of your life?
How do I cope with this inner conflict here?
Just one more month is the last thing I wanna hear

There’s no use in denying it
We live difficult lives
We are in difficult times
Now is our time to realize
We live difficult lives
We are in difficult times
Whoa, Whoa
Difficult lives and difficult times
Whoa, Whoa
Difficult lives and difficult times

Our first world problems are stacking up
Where’s the toilet paper and the pasta stock?
Let’s get ice cream from the grocery store
‘Cause the ice cream shops aren’t open anymore

Locked up again staring at the walls
They’re getting closer every day, someone stop them on their way
Reverting to old habits
No it’s not a relapse yet, I have it under control

No sorry, I’m not allowed to hug anyone
I hope you understand, don’t want to lie to my mom
Discord making my day again
Without your jokes I’d probably go mad again

I’ve stopped caring about being productive
It’s so much easier to be destructive
Fuck being productive
It’s much more fun to be destructive

Whoa, Whoa
Difficult lives and difficult times
Whoa, Whoa
Difficult lives and difficult times
There’s no use in denying it
We live difficult lives
We are in difficult times
Now is our time to realize
We live difficult lives
We are in difficult times
Whoa, Whoa
Difficult lives and difficult times
Whoa, Whoa
Difficult lives and difficult times

Meet new people that will make you feel alright
How do I meet people, when I’m not allowed outside?
Distract yourself, do something you like
The only thing I do is writing songs about you

Warum kann so ein Song nicht beim ESC antreten für Deutschland? Der ist einfach so tiefsinnig mit schöner Melodie. Ein Song, der endlich mal was aussagt. Gerade auch für jüngere Menschen berührend in der derzeitigen Situation. Schön gemacht, Hut ab❣

Gestern das erste Mal im Radio gehört, dachte mir direkt "wow seit wann spielen die denn Marnie im Radio und wieso hat die ein neues Lied????"
Und jetzt find ich raus, das ist ein 18jähriges Frankfurter Mädche!!! Ich werd ja nemmer. Und es ist selbst geschrieben und musiziert und gut. Und am 3. September kommt das nächste. Ich bin so gespannt und in love!

[zaskroniec]

I saw it advertised on insta aND AAHHH IT'S BEAUTIFUL ❤

[chaossurvivaltroopers]

Den Song gerade bei HR 3 gehört und er hat mich sofort gepackt! Sehr schöner Song. :)

[arasergunes]

Just heard the song in Deutschlandfunk Kultur, the best Corona song ever!

[alexislucille]

I looked up this song because I got it in a tarot reading! She read the lyrics “difficult lives and difficult times” and meantimes Jupiter. My reader didn’t know this song and neither did I until I looked up those lyrics!!! I’m amazed!

[michaelbartz]

Heute zum ersten Mal auf Radioeins gehört. So eine tolle Stimme, einfach genial. Wünsche viel Erfolg für die Zukunft.

[novaearion]

So cool! The song made my day when it was on Radio Eins recently. I hope there will be an album to follow :) Please keep on making great music!

[boulimiquedemusique]

A highly melodic pop-synthetic sounding song well anchored in this day and age. The emotionally detached female vocal performance skillfully depicts the surreal era and the feeling that sometimes overwhelms us. The daily life of people living in rich and privileged countries ironically makes us fragile despite our privileged status.

[IamTheHolypumpkin]

I head the song in the radio, and I instantly loved it.

[griffpip]

It all started when Shazam showed me the wrong song named “difficult times” so I started to hear it and now it’s my favorite song <3 thank u Shazam

[wiekialeksander]

Cant wait for another song <3
That one rocks!!! :D

[charisseproffitt]

This is great! Resonates. I used to do construction work, destruction was more fun, and important. One can not build new in a place occupied, one must clear that space.

[bluedust]

I am SO proud of you <3
U did soooo gooood <3

[jetteewerhardy]

Awww, the "nice" at the end!😘

[joergzender]

Wenn ich mal nach Berlin komme, wo finde ich Euer Kunstwerk?
When I visit Berlin, where will I find your street art?

[Nilslos]

Beautiful! Do you remember the time, when we all thought that in 2021 2020 would be over?

[betinavalenteeblinggard]

So beautiful, Jupiter, you are a superstar🍀🙏❤

[thebeelight]

Great song - the laundromats scene (and sound) made me think of David Bowie's Ashes to Ashes video

[candyman]

I have heard the song the first time on my way to Braunschweig
