So excited to release the next song in my Jenna Marbles musical series. This is Peach's solo song!!!!
To be honest, I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to do with this song, especially since Peach doesn't have too many quirks that are like Kermit's crying or the joke that Marbles is basically dead.
But thanks to the help of all of you, I was able to gather some ideas! I kind of went with the energetic style of Peach for the song. I feel like if she could actually talk, she'd kind of go off subject a bit and forget what she was talking about, so I tried to mimic that with the verses, each talking about an entirely different subject. Someone requested I include the fact that she looks like a chicken cutlet, so you're welcome (and I don't mean any offense in saying that- all in good fun)!
I tried to make the musical style what I think is the music that plays in Peach's head every second of the day, very bright and peppy and fun.
I wrote this entire thing yesterday in an hour or so, so it's not totally amazing in terms of variation and other things, but I love love love the bridge!!!
Special thanks to Retta Laumann for performing this song! An absolute queen and such a perfect fit for Peach! She literally learned this within 24 hours and this performance was absolutely perfect on both ends!!!
Hopefully the audio is better in this video. I found a room where I can out the camera closer to the performer so the piano isn't drowning everything out.
I was planning to release this next week, but I wanted to get it out there today as a Happy Belated Birthday gift to Julien!!!!

LYRICS:
My name is Peach
I'm the one who loves to run all day
Though you might be annoyed
I just want to play
I might be small
But I pack a punch of energy
So if you're feeling down
Simply call for me
But at times I
Feel so lonely
No one wants to play, it's true
I want to play
Why don't you?
I'm pretty smart
I can do a trick called "Peachy Up"
I learned that long ago
When I was a pup
Some people say
I'll do anything if I get a treat
I used to be quite thicc
I just love to eat
But sometimes
I'm so hungry
I could simply eat a shoe
I like to eat
Why don't you?
Why are people so cruel?
I read all about the comments
Saying I look like a chicken cutlet
I don't like that at all
I wish people noticed that I'm
A skinny legend
So anyway
I guess there is a lesson here
Be nice to everyone
Despite what you may hear
And if you see
A whole ass dog treat on the floor
Please give it back to me
I lost it by the door
So goodbye now
See you later
I will always cherish you
My name is Peach
I love you
I love you
