HALF SHY
Приєднався 12 тра 2015
Hi there friend.
I make music and other projects under the name HALF SHY.
The world of social media and UA-cam isn't exactly my comfort zone, but I'm so glad to have you here! My most recent project was working on the Adventure Time Fionna & Cake series writing "Everything in You" and Distant Lands episode Obsidian, writing the song "Monster." Being such a huge fan of the show it was an incredibly surreal experience.
You can connect with me through my website or Instagram.
Thanks for hanging out and take care of yourself.

Half Shy - What You Want to Believe (Lyric Video)
Lyric Video for "What You Want to Believe" by Half Shy
In this latest tune, I wanted to dig into the heart of our Internet culture. Inspired (as always) by 1980’s dark-wave, the character Domino acts as a stand-in for our online interactions - a metaphorical dominatrix that we turn to for transactional connection and a confirmation of our beliefs.
It’s a dark song, but I’m hopeful looking at history - new technology comes with growing pains and cultural freak-outs and has to readjust. Maybe we will learn how to make it a tool for real connection, love, and societal growth.

Lyrics:
I thought I’d know the future when it showed up
It’s all brand new eyes, and no contact highs its just another new drug
We’re all living our lives at night wishing for enough
But neon lights for knee high tights is not what you call, love
You’re the one in cuffs, so why am I feeling stuck?
Keeping all your dirty little secrets just between us
Sure I can make you feel like you’re not quite good enough
But neon lights for knee high tights is not what you call, love
So tell me what you came for
Tell me what you want to believe
I’ll give you (wa ah oh oh, wa ah oh) everything
Tell me what you came for
Tell me what you want me to be
I’ll give you (wa ah oh oh, wa ah oh) everything
Honey we both know we don’t know how to be alone
Close your eyes, fantasize that this feeling is more than enough
Cause if it’s not maybe I don’t really wanna know
Close your eyes, fantasize that this feeling is just between us
So tell me what you came for
Tell me what you want to believe,
I’ll give you (wa ah oh oh, wa ah oh) everything
Tell me what you came for
Tell me what you want me to be
I’ll give you (wa ah oh oh, wa ah oh) everything

Everything in this song just perfect😔
gracias por crear una canción que puedo sentir con cada latido de mi corazon <3
quiero que sea mi primer canción en el ukelele pero no puedo hacer que suene igual :(de todas formas me encanta esta canción, espero sigas trabajando con hora de aventura :D
Thanks!! It's probably a little tricky sounding unless you have a lower first G string, you can check this video out if you haven't found it already: ua-cam.com/video/x35bSTJiCkg/v-deo.htmlsi=aHZmXvZ8i3_jNqDU for more of a tutorial.
Wow.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Half Shy brings the heat.
I used to dance this with my ex boyfriend, the love of my life, and i miss you everyday felipe, osito mio, no sabes cuanto te necesito
Tears and tears poor simon😢😢😢😢
This is incredible, I just found you by new "Fionna and Cake" series. Loves from Brazil, you're amazing
could I ask what strings you use? thank you for making such a lovely song
Good question! On this Uke for "Monster" they're the run of the mill nylon strings, nothing fancy, might have even been the ones that came with it😆! For "Everything in You" I switched over to some Aquila Super Nylgut strings with a low G tuning that I've really enjoyed.
@@HALFSHY thank you 😊
I wish that ours was forever haha :(💗
I didn't get to comment this on the premiere of the episode, but when the tune kept playing before this episode, and Fionna and Cake sang the tune to Simon, which clicked something inside Simon which he then says "it's our song." When the song started playing in the episode I started bawling 😭
Thank you so much!!!!!!
Te extraño

I love your voice , thanks for this song.
This song makes me cry 😢 when I hear it such a beautiful song 🎧.
Adventure time just got crazy good. this is a song to listen too when the world is ending ❤ 0:42
Lo voy a recordar para siempre, grabado en mi corazón con letras de oro.....deseando poder volvernos a encontrar y estar juntos, en alguna otra vida🥺
Belas palavras 😭❤️
Fuck me I’m sad
Thank you so much. 💙
I need this in adventure time 🍪
🔥🔥🔥
Awesome, she deserves a lot more fame
Waiting for my everything :)
Update I found my everything their name is Kelsey, they are the sweetest most beautiful girl❤️ I couldn’t imagine a future without them.
just discovered this song just a couple days ago and it makes me both so happy but incredibly emotional at the same time. This song means so much to me in a way that I didn't know I could be affected, thank you for this song and for your lovely voice!!
Me playing a ranked game with this song
♥️♥️♥️♥️💖💕🤗😍
Beautiful.
This is probably my favorite video on the internet. It’s brought me so much comfort, especially during my hardest moments. I always listen to it when I’m struggling to sleep. Thank you so much for this incredible song! ❤️❤️
Adventure time is not for kids or adults Why do i make myself go through the pain of listening to this song
This show taught me to love my Betty and to not just live for myself and my interests. I would give the world to make her happy. I know what's best for me but I want what's best for her, so we can have the best us. This show taught me it's okay to not know what will happen, but to make the best of everything. I have been scared of dying and not able to give the love she deserves. I hope to help her and make sure she can live the life she wants and needs whether I'm here or not, so I'm gonna love her like everyday is my last. It's not fair to think what'd she go through without me, but I know she's strong and can live for both of us. I love you and I always will my princess. I hope to live as long possible to take care of us the way she deserves.
Mimzie is based here 😆
I haven't watched Fionna and Cake yet, so I don't know the context of this song, but... The sound of those sleigh bells make my stomach churn.
