request Write me a song?

[ms-coco-pommel 64]

I've never posted in this forum before, so forgive me if I accidentally break some sort of etiquette <3

I'm just in the brainstorming process of putting together a demo reel of me as a princess, and I wanted a catchy song to sing / have playing in the background. I've tried writing my own songs before, and I'm sad to say I'm miserable at it.

I wanted it to have this sort of feel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EvAEiJML0I
 

Edit to provide a little more info: 

 

There's been a little bit of a backlash against princesses lately because some people think they encourage little girls to be weak and to simply wait to be rescued. But I disagree. I think that the princesses can teach little girls to always be kind and positive and hopeful, and to work hard towards whatever goal they have in life. That's the main reason why I'm doing this princess thing. I'm going to be doing community events where I help empower little girls to dare to dream big and to work hard and always keep smiling. 

I want the song to help convey that message. I love the "you can be a princess if you are kind and brave" theme of the song I linked above. I think it's really, really important to let young girls know they can do anything and achieve anything in life that they want to.

I think this deffintily has the same feel as the song you showed, hope you like:

 

How do you do? My name is [name]!

I'm happy to lie to you today!

They call me weirdly pretentious,

I love that name, I'll lie to say!

For we live in an unfair, oddly magical land

where wishes and dreams are just bland.

Her, every boy must be a boy

and every girl, pretentious, too!

 

It is what you look like,

it's the shape of your nose!

It's the house you live in,

it's the style of your clothes!

But that won't get many views,

So I'll pretend, I actully like you!

And care how you live, and what you give!

It's not about you,

and you can be a pretentious, too!

 

You can't be whatever you wish,

so reach for the mountains high!

Because dreams won't be true,

I'll just say good things!

An Artist, Mommy, Fire Chief,

Okay I'm sick of sucking up!

It's how you show you don't really care!

It's really up to you,

and you can be a pretentious, too!

 

(Kids speaking)

Girl: I wanna be um, an Artist and a Model when I grow up.

Boy: (playing with a garbage truck) that ain't gonna happen

Girl: I wanna be a Zoo Keeper when I grow up.

Boy: Good luck with that

Girl: I wanna be an Anthropologist when I grow up.

Boy: Still not gonna happen

Girl: I wanna be a pet store owner.

Girl: I wanna be a pretentious when I grow up!

 

And, you can be a pretentious, too!

What is pretentious?

What makes me things she's smart?

Or that she cares about her fans

I don't know but I'll subscribe!

 

Whatever path you walk on,

wear a cheerful smile!

Help someone along the way,

All for the subscribe

You can't make a difference,

Nor's your beauty's true!

But I'll tell you, you can

So you will think I'm cool

and you can be pretentious, too!

 

You can be pretentious!

Very wierdly pretentious!

You can be pretentious, too!

Ok then. How about an ACTUAL response from someone now?

Update (for anyone ACTUALLY interested in helping out): 

Ok, so I've made fairly good progress coming up with a melody and lyrics on my own. Could still use the help of someone who could maybe help with making a piano accompaniment or something.

Next time I'm on a piano, I'll try to make something, but I'm kinda busy so it might take a while

[ms-coco-pommel 64]

Thank you so much, Joecal <3 <3 I was afraid everyone was going to be nasty about it.

I'm still working on it too so it's ok if it takes awhile. Do you use Finale? I can send you the file of what I have so far (or as a PDF) if you want.

Unless you meant that you wanted to start from scratch, in which case, sorry for misunderstanding you at first
