"So Selfish" - NEW ORIGINAL SONG!

Hey gang,

SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS SONG! I worked on it forever, and now it's done! This is a patreon Exclusive for some time :)

Let me know your thoughts! Dropping a video for it that's gonna be *very interesting* eventually

Lyrics:

Verse 1

Feeling numb, by myself

You’ve become someone else

I thought you

Would come through, oh

I’ve been doing everything I can

While you don’t even try to understand, uh

Chorus

I supported you through everything

Now I need a little help, wish

You’d be there when I am struggling

But you’ve turned so selfish

And you self-sabotage, then blame it on me

When I’m on my knees, so selfish

Wish you weren’t so selfish

How’d you turn so selfish

Verse 2

So you wish me the best

After making this mess

I thought you

Would come through, oh

Promise after promise thrown away

Wish I didn’t trust in what you say, uh

Chorus

I supported you through everything (everything)

Now I need a little help, wish (yeah)

You’d be there when I am struggling

But you’ve turned so selfish

And you self-sabotage, then blame it on me

When I’m on my knees, so selfish (oh)

Wish you weren’t so selfish (yeah)

How’d you turn so selfish (whoo)

Bridge

Yeah, yeah

So selfish, oh

Promise after promise thrown away

Wish I didn’t trust in what you say

Uh

Chorus

I supported you through everything (everything, yeah)

Now I need a little help, wish (oh)

You’d be there when I am struggling (but you)

But you’ve turned so selfish (selfish)

And you self-sabotage, then blame it on me

When I’m on my knees, so selfish (on my knees, ooh)

Wish you weren’t so selfish (oh, yeah)

How’d you turn so selfish (oh, selfish)

Outro

I supported you through everything (yeah I did)

I supported you through everything

I supported you through everything

Now I need a little help, wish (oh)

You’d be there when I am struggling

But you’ve turned so selfish

* So Selfish Hype Noises * 🕺🐾

PhantomFidget

It’s down now

Stephanie Bruso

It's so good, i was waiting for it. I love the picture on the spotify track. Thanks.

Magalie Leplus

Yeah, I see that too , he said he'll get it taken down but it'll take a bit longer for it coz it's on Spotify & he said he won't promo it.

CK DeP

So when is the new day for the song to be released now? 🙃

Helga 🦊

Sounds so familiar! I love it congrats

marlenies

The song is somehow still back on Spotify

Stephanie Bruso

I hope that song makes it too! It’s so romantic 😍🌹

Aubrey Danielle

Sounds good, Joel! Good vibes, good production, love your vocal tone and pronunciation. Excited for the music video!

Amberlash

This song is a banger and a whole vibe 😌 I'm excited the video when it comes out! 🥰

Amanda 🖤

I love You

Teagan Ostrow44

Instagram keeps logging me out Roomie I am so upset

Teagan Ostrow44

Like 5 out of 5 is a banger. Looking forward to the video. Will you be doing a video for 5 out of 5? Love the vibe throughout the song, the mixing is really awesome. Pat yourself on the back, Joel this is so mmmmmwwwah!!!!! Thank you for letting us have a listen. Sorry, that you had to experience such an awful time. Love you 😘😘❤️❤️

Gayle

Joel made a post saying no video this Friday

Teagan Ostrow44

Good Morning

Teagan Ostrow44

¡BUE-NÍ-SI-MAAAAAA! SOOOOO GOOOOD!!!

Ave Castruita

Awesome 💃💃.

Birdie Cantin

Joel, your Reel on Instagram was funny, and the perfect teaser for this amazing new song!! Teaser to those of your fans who aren’t patrons. As well as your InstaStory with your teaser Reel!! All I can say is “perfection”!! And now I’m just waiting for you to release it to other platforms so I can add it to my playlist, and I’m also getting excited to see the music video you have planned to go with it!! I’m so excited, and very happy for you, Rami!!

Melissa Rogers

I love To Sing

Teagan Ostrow44

I love Your Reel Roomie

Teagan Ostrow44

I am so excited for Your Music Video Next Friday Joel

Teagan Ostrow44

Damn, I didn't manage to see it while it was there, but now I'm wondering - is that cover an official one for the song or just a temporary thing? Ngl seeing that something was made with genetative AI makes me a little sad, but I think it's only natural if an artist sees so many art spaces being flooded with AI generated stuff (with addition of a ton of hateful comments towards artist). It'll take me some time to be more neutral about it. I also don't know how much work was put there so I can't really comment on the cover 😅 but I'm definitely always interested in seeing commissioned album covers 💙 I feel like those are just something else ✨️ Either way can't wait to put the song in my playlist 🥰

Magdalena Slodczyk

Damn, my brain just remembered to play it on repeat again 😅 but damn it feels clean 🤩

Magdalena Slodczyk

Me Too

Teagan Ostrow44

Yes I love that idea!!!!!

Alle Engdahl

Oohhhh

Airyckah Lane

It’s a very good choice! As a very visual person I really love that photo!

Helga 🦊

I mean, we already got the song 🤷‍♀️. He just hyped the video, so now I'm excited for that 😁.

Dannielle O'Neill

I Want Spotify exclusive and YouTube exclusive

Teagan Ostrow44

Had a thought!💡 Maybe others would agree too... If you wanted to do a Patreon Exclusive Premier before the public release of the video...I'd even pay an extra bump for it, tbh. 😁

Dannielle O'Neill

It’s common practice where I live for people to say how instead of why and it fries my head daily 😅 The regional dialect people use here also makes no sense I tend to zone out in most cases when people use it i.e. ken = know and ben = through 😂

Jen 🦙

So the video coming out this Friday is the music video for this song? You move fast if that's the case

Adina

So I went with a silhouette

Joel Berghult

It’s AI, I wanted to put my face into an AI photo and make it look real but it was a pain lmao

Joel Berghult

Because I just fricking love those colours choice, shading, and the whole idea overall 😍 (except hands and especially fingers, those seem unnatural and scary me a bit 😅 that’s why I thought it might be Al created)

Helga 🦊

I have a question…Whose idea was to create that cover photo that we see on Spotify (man sitting with blackness and fire at the back)? Was it made using Al?

Helga 🦊

Good stuff! Thank you Joel!

BellatrixBerghult

It's one thing to have different dialects and regional variations. That's definitely a legitimate argument to be made in some cases.

Dannielle O'Neill

I thinking about making a reaction video (of course I will wait to post it when you release the song to the public). I will listen to it then, but I can’t wait. Happy Fourth of July 🇺🇸 (even if your not American Joel lol)

Stephanie Bruso

Love it!! It definitely has a groove to it!! Yay looking forward to the music video! I’m curious what you mean by very interesting! 🙂

Miriam

Yup gonna take a lil bit to get it down apparently. But won’t promo it

Joel Berghult

WOW! ❤️‍🔥 That bridge and chorus after it just gave me immediate goosebumps and made me want to listen to the song again and again! Bravo, Joel 👏🏼

Helga 🦊

I Can Not Wait For The Music Video

Teagan Ostrow44

I Can't Not Wait For Your Music Video

Teagan Ostrow44

❤️❤️❤️

♠️ Aslyn Jobry ♠️

I don’t mean to be negative or anything, but the song is still on Spotify

Stephanie Bruso

I hope you don’t venture north of the border, it’s like people are speaking in Tongues up here 🤣🤣

Jen 🦙

Imagine being in England though, the birthplace of the language and having to listen to it being butchered on the daily by natives. It's embarrassing 😂😂

Hayley

And, as with a fair amount of "non-native" speaking people I've listened to...doing it better than a solid amount of the native speakers here in the US...ouch...

Dannielle O'Neill

"English isn't a language, it's three languages, stacked on top of each other, wearing a trenchcoat, pretending to be one."

Dannielle O'Neill

Listened to it a couple of times earlier on my phone and it was good. Then just listened to it on my way into work. It sounds so much better on my good car speakers.

Lianne Conroy

Congratulations! It must feel amazing to have this done and to release it into the world. I love it. It’s so dark, and it keeps getting darker as it goes. It’s heavy on my heart. But then those falsetto ‘oohs’ make it kinda shivery too. I have missed hearing your stuff!

emy

Hope ur ok :)

Joel Berghult

God that chorus slaps hard!!

Calize

Love it! Thank you for releasing this today. I really needed a bright spot today. 💜

Stacy Payette

#WorthIt

Dannielle O'Neill

This was sooo good. The production in this slaps, but I also keep coming back to the lyrics; your lyrics are underrated.

Brandt

Wow!! This is absolute fire! Sounds amazing! It's definitely a song that you wanna listen to over and over. Awesome job as usual!

Courtney Walker

Absolutely awesome!! Especially I love the melody and all the vocal layers 🔥😍🔥😍🔥😍🔥

Franceska

My Dad is Getting Better

Teagan Ostrow44

Sorry for spamming with this second comment (should have listened to the Acapella and instrumental before typing the first comment... 😅). Just wanted to say thanks for uploading all these versions of it, made me appreciate the song even more! That instrumental version creates really cool soundscape, takes u somewhere even without the lyrics, there's so many interesting parts in it! And this is going to sound really weird...but it's really soft and round for the ears even with the cool hard hitting beat, what I'm trying to say I guess is that it's very pleasant to listen to, kinda smooth..😅 But anyways, love ur vocals and the lyrics, very touching but still catchy 🎶😍

JustSomeJK

Ahhh, English is a ridiculous language so well done 😂

Hayley

English for singing :) Been mainly speaking english for the last 9 years

Joel Berghult

💃💃💃

MediocreAtBest

It's an alternate version with the vocals louder. Standard practice to export, but wasn't needed

Joel Berghult

Ok great, thank youuuu 😊✌️

Nataliekey

So good👏👏🎶🎶

Elli

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Elke

Joel, you’ve outdone yourself!! I LOVE how you’ve finished “So Selfish”!! Very catchy and upbeat, while touching on a sad subject/situation. Your voice is 🔥🔥!! I love everything about this song!! Tysm for sharing it with us!! I’m most definitely looking forward to adding it to my iTunes playlist, and to watch the music video you have planned for it!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💙💛🥰🥰 You are absolutely amazing!!

Melissa Rogers

Wow. Love this final version. And the acapella 😘 Can’t wait to put it on my playlist and can’t wait to see what you have cooked up for us for the video. 🔥 🔥 🔥💕

Dorie

So I literally went to bed and someone woke me up asking me to check my mail for some code blablabla... How awesome, it's almost 2am 😆...Love the song!! Especially starting from verse 2 and onwards, it gets even more emotional, hits harder, and love love love the fact that it has kind of a 90s vibe as someone said, but still feels super fresh and modern. So much love! Waiting for Spotify and the MV of course! 🧡

Mona

Exactly, I want to be able to release the tension 9/10 when I’m in my feels 😊

Jen 🦙

K, I commented before I listened...Great work 👏🏼 Got me thinking though...I know English is your 2nd language, do you still write in Swedish? What's easier? Do English or Swedish words flow better?

Hayley

Okay, so admittedly, I was not on board with this one when you were posting the teasers and sneak peeks. I guess I was expecting something completely different cause I was pretty sure I wasn't gonna like it. I should've known better; Final products are always so much better, what the heck. At risk of sounding like a fangirl: I frickin LOVE the production on this. I am so pleased to have this instrumental track! 😍 The harmonies and adlibs work so well with it and the layering on the end: yes. That pleases me sooooo much. The vibe is solid. The verses feel a tad formulaic, melodically (right up until that beautiful little up-run at the end of the second verse on "say"), but they still work well. In any case, the second half of the song makes me forget the verse melodies anyway cause it just vibes. I love that the bridge tones everything down for a breath and then it just comes right back. I love that. The only thing I, personally, cannot get behind is the "uhn" thing right before every chorus. 😂 not that it's bad, it just cracks me up and takes me out of the vibe a little. But it does that in every song I hear it in. It's not particular to this song. As expected your harmonies are on point. Vocal delivery and production is very well done! I really like this singing style for you much more than the "urban" pronunciation Lil Pitchy uses (personal opinion). Overall the song is a vibe.🔥 Sorry for the long comment.

Kat

I really like this one - especially your vocals 😊well done and was worth the wait

Lebuwi

Amazing song!! I will definitely add it to my Roomie playlist once it is back on Spotify. Thanks so much Joel👍👏🎶 Can't wait for the interesting Music Video!

Bookdragon 43

so true love songs that are emotional without being a piano ballad, those are great too, but … hits differently when ya can scream anthem sing to it :)

xtina 🖤

this song is amazing

nicholas petruzzella

YOOO, this is such a vibe! Omg that bridge especially… the entire song is such a jam!! And those melodies are so goddamn good. Why do you amaze me every time?! But I’m mad at you now… because this is just gonna be repeating in my head all day now 😂😭

Rainbowz Grace

Okay. This is the best you’ve done!!! The drop at 2:02?!?!?! DAMN OK. and since we’ve heard this so many times i was already singing along lolol. I LOVE IT AHHH. Proud of youuuu

Shauna

The final production is really good, I hope you’re proud of it cause it truly is an emotional masterpiece! 👏🏻 When a song about feelings hits that hard without it being a piano ballad, that’s when you know it’s a great track 😁

Jen 🦙

we need to fix that 😹

Mari

ok

Teagan Ostrow44

YAY! Definitely agree 🙌🏼

Aubrey Danielle

Why is there no file named "02", what are you keeping from us?! 😆😅 I have FOMO now!

Joel Berghult

Thank you!!!! ☺️

Airyckah Lane

Lyrics put up!

Joel Berghult

Already added to favorite songs on Spotify, maybe keep it up on there but keep it a 'patreon secret ' , pretty please? 🥺👉👈

Nataliekey

HAHAA 🤣🤣

Aubrey Danielle

I'm in love with the Acapella, it will sound banging with a guitar, especially the rasp on some of your vocals.... 🥰

Clair (Teampanda)

For someone who has never seen Titanic excellent use of that reference hahaha

Alle Engdahl

I loooove it 🎶😍 So groovy and 🔥! That build up and those little sounds u make here and there are awesome! My music terminology is rubbish, so I can't really explain well... This was so worth waiting for, such a great song 🤩 Can we please get the lyrics 😊? Can't wait to see the video 😃

JustSomeJK

omg it’s so mmmphhh!! clean and slick! Fire!!!!!!!

xtina 🖤

Mari

Omgg Joel!! Finally lol I was just on Spotify, was wondering why I saw it on there haha, thanks for the notice haha! Yes, only for us Patreons exclusively 😄 🤣 😂 Also happy 4th of July if you Celebrate it lol Do you like the fireworks? Do they do fireworks in Sweden? (I've never been to Sweden, but REALLY wanna go!) How's Midsommar been? I have written my video ideas/suggestions in the community tab on Pat, if you haven't seen it lol Plz give me your feedback, tips, etc. 👏😀👍 @Roomie

CK DeP

Omg lol 🙈

Aubrey Danielle

Amazing Joel 😍😍 love the vibe, so catchy

Elle Quinn

oh I have no idea, I wasn't around for that 😹

Mari

Oh wow! This turned out great!

Lianne Conroy

Didn’t the fans help him with the name though? I think it served its purpose and was cool at the time. Just my opinion here! 😅

Aubrey Danielle

🤣 the way Brian and I cackled lol

Airyckah Lane

lol I still believe lil pitchy was created as a way to test the waters of releasing music and if it failed, it could easily be played off as a joke

Mari

Thanks so much! It's the first song I released that I produced myself in a long time :) It took me so long lmao

Joel Berghult

You've got me DYING of curiosity with this video talk. We get NO bts?! C'mon! 🥹🙏 lmao 😋 JK Appreciate you sm

Dannielle O'Neill

Sounds amazing. Can't wait to put it in my favorites playlist when it's officially on Spotify 😄

naschpanda

Whoop! 🎶👨‍🎤 Brilliant work Joel! I can sing it to people right??? I'm full of cold goo (snot) so it would no way infringe any copyright or break exclusivity rules - it's just going to be my retort sing song to anyone being mean to me!

Clair (Teampanda)

This is great! The song evolved so much since the beginning! I like it a lot!!!

Marioni

I hope so lol lil pitchy name is a little cheesy 🤭

Aubrey Danielle

Oh I LOVE this! Too bad it's gonna be gone from Spotify, cause it would have gone into many of my playlists, but at least I can still listen to it! I'm excited to see this *very interesting* video! Thank you for sharing your gifts and talent with us! 🧡🧡🧡

Stephanie Vitkuske

He stacked them vocals HARD!

Cas

This is what I needed after such a sh** day at work. Thanks Joel! 😉 Love every part of the song ❤️ Each part has its own 'personality'

Annelies

I'm sure it will, I read it as it got prematurely released on there

Mari

It’s been…84 years 😂 kidding. My favorite part is all the background vocals and harmonies WOW 😯🔥

Aubrey Danielle

yes Joel agree please keep it up on streaming too! or do you mean it’s out early for us??

xtina 🖤

The acapella version is so good! You can appreciate the layers in the vocals. I'm so so excited about this! Love it love it love it

Sofía Reyes

I know, but I wonder if when he puts it up on Spotify when it's officially released if it'll be under just "Roomie" still

Mari

It’s a Patreon exclusive for now, but I’m sure everyone will get to enjoy it on Spotify in the hopefully not too distant future 😁

Alle Engdahl

This is so awesome, such a groove! Very intrigued about the video now 🔥

Becky Lorion

Looks like “roomie”

Airyckah Lane

Sounds great. Excellent production.

Kate Quantrell

The beat hits really hard, your voice sounds good and I love the emotionality in your voice. I also find the part where the music changes at 1:37 and you add some variation really compelling. Well done and congratulations!!!

Cas

Aaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!! SO excited! Loved this from the jump, but it's just gotten better and better! I can't wait for everyone to hear it, so I can shriek publicly! Lmao. Also, stoked for the video!

Dannielle O'Neill

Sofía Reyes
