- it's been a SUPER (eyyy) long time since i sang along with a guitar, and i've wanted to revisit this song for ages!
see the original from 2011 here: • Superhero (Original so...
lyrics:
Standing on top of the world with you
Seemed like a good idea at the time
But now I’ve come to realise
That falling back down
Hurts so much more than the climb
Can we talk about it?
Is it even worth it?
Am I kidding myself?
Cos I don’t need a superhero
Just to waste my time
Wearing capes and chasing bad guys
Just isn’t my style
So can you stay a while?
Used to be a gimmick
But now I hardly see you
You’re far too busy saving the world
But I can’t take much more of this
So here’s your happy ending
You’ve saved the world
And now you’ve lost the girl
I watch you from afar
Soaring through the sky
Is it too late to save us?
Cos I don’t need a superhero
Just to waste my time
Wearing capes and chasing bad guys
Just isn’t my style
So can you stay a while?
In the villain’s lair
You’re tied to a chair
When I appear from nowhere
But do I need a superhero?
Or any other guy?
Could I leave you here to die
And move on with my life?
Cos I don’t need a superhero
Just to waste my time
Wearing capes and chasing bad guys
Just isn’t my style
So can you stay a while?
play it with capo on 4, and use g, em, d, c, and am ;D

DAMN your voice has improved! just the amount of control compared to 7 years ago is insane. way to go kid.
These lyrics! They really hit me hard, not sure why but I'm not complaining. I really like this song a lot. It's so nice to see you just sitting down with a guitar
I haven't heard this original before, the superhero theme is so cool! Love a bit of acoustic every now and then, amazing as always ❤
Whenever Emma posts a song anyone I'm with just prepares to listen to it on repeat for the next hour.
I adore the breathiness in this??
Your voice sounds so soft ahhh. This was amazing and I genuinely enjoyed listening to this song again.
I wasn't expecting new music (new to me, at least) for a few weeks and suddenly you hit me with this. You can't keep doing this to me, Emma, my mind can only take so much awesomeness in a short space of time
I really love that you can hear that you have a better control when it comes to your voice and you have a better singing technique. It's such a lovely song and your voice is perfect for that song. I'm proud of you and sending love from Germany ❤
BLESSING US WITH MULTIPLE VIDEOS YES EMMA THANK YOU
I forgot about this song but I love it so much!! For the past few months I kept getting the "can we talk about it, is it even worth it, am I kidding myself" stuck in my head but I couldn't for the life of me think what song it came from and now I know! I'm so satisfied, thank you for this, it's beautiful 💞💞
What a fantastic little song! The lyrics are amazing, I love it. You have so much talent!
Great stuff! Love the style, too -- brings back good memories of quiet nights out.
These silent seas is SHAKING
Emma's voice is continually getting better! Wow!! And I really like her hair in this video, it suits her 😍
I am so happy that you have been focusing your channel on music recently.
Although it might sometimes feel less entertaining than the previous content, it is amazing to see you happier. Moreover, I think you are able to give more to the world, as there are probably less people who know music well (and can present it in a way that is interesting for others) than there are peoole who can make comedy content.
Thank you for doing music! (And even more for sharing the process and the thoughts with us)
“So here’s your happy ending. You’ve saved the world. Now you’ve lost the girl” these are gold.
WE STAN A LEGEND
OML I CANT BELIEVE IT. This is one of my all time faveroutes I'm so glad to see you revisit it and put the cords in to I sang along the whole time definitely putting this on my phone in place of the old one
Emma, this is possibly my very favourite song out of any that you've ever made; I’m so happy that you've come back to it! I’m adding this to my best music playlist right now! I’m so exited! Thank you so much!
Every time I see you perform more stripped back things like this I literally well up. I've watched your content for so many years and I've seen you grow and try out new things and stuff like this just shows how your voice has improved. it's beautiful to watch.
Congrats Emma I've not cried like this in ages this song is so powerful I hope you keep doing music. Cause I love you and your music. Hope to see you IRL one day
That falling back down
Hurts more than the climb is so true
This song has more real emotion and none of the angst crap of dirt and agenda. Thumbs up for me!
I adore your lyrical composition in general, can't wait for the album. You're a wonderful person, don't let anyone convince you otherwise.
"You've saved the world and lost the girl" is so powerful. Wow
Your voice is incredible right now! Can we talk about how much of a bop Dirt and Agenda are though?!♥️
I love that you're doing what you love Emma! I'm sooo happy for you💕
I could watch you play guitar all day Emma you are such an inspiration to me and im really looking forward to your upcoming album ❤😊 much love
I’m pretty sure my new puppy is trying to dance to this... your voice is amazing!!
Another Brilliant song Emma, 1000% improved on the first take 7 years ago. Well done :-) If this gets upped to Spotify will add straight to my playlist
I'd never heard this before but I sure am glad to hear it now. CANNOT WAIT FOR YOUR ALBUM ❤️
IT'S 2 AM WHERE I LIVE AND IM CRYING AT HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS IS!!!!
This is so good!! The theme and everything is amazing and creative!!! You voice is so amazing!!!
I heard this years ago and hoped it would be on the album one day! It sounds even better now! Well done Emma!!
This song is just true brilliance straight through!
And I did indeed like seeing you sit down and play this with you and your acoustic guitar.
I really love your style. Dirt and agenda are soo good. And those acoustic songs now and then are such a blessing❤️
I love all of your music Emma! Your so talented! Keep going strong :) I can just see your songs being played frequently on radio stations. I'm always playing them!
i love it. your voice is so beautiful, it gives me chills. that was everything omg
Love this, Emma! You're voice is incredibly powerful, as is this song! Thank you for sharing!
This song is so lovely and the lyrics are so beautiful and your voice complements it really well, it's such an amazing song!
This song hits me again every time I listen to it
Boiii dirt and agenda are straight radio worthy bops when did you get so amazing? I’m so excited for the album!!!!
I absolutely adore the lyrics to this, and your voice fits with it so perfectly 🖤
I really like this song ♡♥♡♥♡
Oh my gosh emma, i really love this one sososo much. the lyrics hit me really hard and i think it's because i tend to try to be the superhero, i try to save everyone around me instead of just loving and focusing on myself for awhile. and taking care of people and putting others before you isn't wrong but i know that unless i take care of myself, the love i give won't be as effective...
Oh my God! I love this. I sent shivers throughout my whole body. You have such a beautiful voice and play guitar so well.
This is amazing Emma, your lyrics and your tone pulls at my heart strings perfectly. I look forward to seeing your new stuff. ❤️ :D
Okay vocal QUEEN
As if I couldn't be more excited for the album 😭😍
I wasn't expecting much from an older song, but I actually quite like it!
Your next album should be an acoustic album. Your voice really shines in this kind of songs.
Emma, if you made more stuff like this, I would listen to your music. This is awesome.
This was relaxing to listen to, I could listen to you play for hours Emma ☺️
Ngl this is a low-key bop. Your songwriting has improved tenfold though
This is gorgeous! Honestly I think this is one of your best Emma
I see you and Jason mean singing together on stage. Amazing. Brava!
You never fail to amaze me emma! 😊 😘
Wow! That was amazing! I love your voice and this song!!
I know nothing about music i only listen to it but I LOVE The way you sing "But do i need a superheroe" part.
Also i love the ending of the song so much
Those vocals and those lyrics 😍👏🏻
This brought me to tears. I love you Emma ❤️

This is the first time I’ve ever heard one of your songs and I am 100% *NOT* disappointed with that beautiful voice of yours! You’re amazing at the guitar too!
I didn't know that I knew the lyrics, then I started singing along... your songs sure do stick, Emma! :) x
Emma your so amazing! I love your unique voice & your personality!
You have talent girl & it’s so refreshing to see you in your element & happy!

😄💖
Your voice has me shook every damn time it’s so beautiful 😍
your voice has come so far, in those years. well done!
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL EMMA I LOVE YOU 💖💖💖
This sounds like something straight outta The sound of music for some reason!
With all of the knowledge you've gained about production, you could totally do a short EP of updated older songs of yours. But I'm absolutely feelings the untouched acoustic live feel of this.
I like this A LOT! 💜
Dude this is beautiful, the lyrics are so awesome. I would really love if you ended up making this into a full blown studio-produced track, can totally see this becoming a good full blown pop track, or depending on how you do it even something like soft rock/folk rock, kinda like what Paramore did with The Only Exception.
You’ve come so far oh my god I’m so proud
This is amazing! And of course it pops up right when I feel like I'm in such a situation as described in the song ♥
Your voice is so beautiful and passionate!🙂
I can't say how much I love this oh my god 👏❤👏
Emma your voice is gorgeous and you’ve definitely got more control over it now, well done! I’m super excited for the album and to go to your tour :D lots of love xxx

This is incredible 💕💕
I really like this song. I've been listening this for like half an hour now... I don't know what to say. It's beautiful
This is absolutely stunning!!
Wow Emma the difference between then and now is incredible 👌🏼
Okay I’m crying now help... I’m spontaneously sobbing
MY HEART. THIS IS ACTUALLY SO PURE, I LOVE IT SO MUCH
