Lee Madsen - Float Through Space

Lee Madsen 2024-07-07 | Hi everyone! Long time no see. “Float Through Space,” which was originally released on August 27th of last year, has been re-mastered! This is the first original song that I ever produced so there were definitely some mistakes here and there, and I wanted to refresh it a bit so I could confidently say that this is something that I’m proud of. I’m also always open to constructive criticism so I can grow as an artist. I hope you enjoy this new version! It’s back up on Spotify, Apple Music, and more. If you previously had this song on a playlist, it should have popped right back in! If not, don't forget to re-add it 😉

On another note, I wanted to talk about my channel for a second. As I'm sure you have noticed, I haven't been posting videos that often. Life has been very hectic recently. (Honestly, when is it not?) I don't have a ton of time to make music since I'm a full-time college student, but I want you all to know that I have so many plans for more releases... I really hope you stick around. This little community I have created here on YouTube is so wonderful and cozy, and I'm planning on building it up again. I'm so thankful for all of the support I have received over these past few years, and I can't wait to show you all what I have in store! Much love ❤️

OFFICIAL LYRICS & CHORDS:

(Capo 3)
Verses and Chorus: G Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Cadd9
Pre-Chrous: C Em G D

I look down at my hands
And I tell myself that no one understands
I look down at my hands
And prepare myself ‘cause I know I’ll crash land
The world around me spins
Is this punishment for all of my old sins?
The world around me spins
And I feel my sorrow start to grow within

So if no one cries over me
I’m fine with crying my small self to sleep
I don’t know who I’m meant to be
But I’m okay although I’m not happy

They say, "Just stay
Don’t leave your life behind"
Although they know
I live with a broken mind
And it’s not right
But I feel like saving face
So I’ll live without a change of pace
And float through space

I cover my own ears
Even though I love most of the things I hear
I cover my own ears
Because oftentimes my thoughts are not so clear
My body’s always numb
Pins and needles ain’t the same for everyone
My body’s always numb
Sometimes I’m ashamed of what I have become

And if nobody hears my pleas
I’ll overthink and cry myself to sleep
I don’t know what is wrong with me
But I’m okay although I’m not happy

They say, "Just stay
Don’t leave your life behind"
Although they know
I live with a broken mind
And it’s not right
But I feel like saving face
So I’ll live without a change of pace

Okay, I’ll stay
Won’t leave my life behind
Although I know
I live with a broken mind
And it’s not right
That I feel like saving face
So I’ll live my life and make a change
Not float through space

Jingle Bell Rock - Bobby Helms (Cover)

Lee Madsen - Christmas With You

Lee Madsen 2023-11-24 | HI EVERYONE~ Long time no see! A year ago, I uploaded this Christmas song, but I was in a really dark place in my life and I could hear it in my voice, so I decided to re-do it, and this one is here to stay! It's the day after Thanksgiving, so nobody in the world can get mad at me because it's officially Christmas season 😉

Produced by @Aliejha, "Christmas With You" is available on all streaming services, including Bandcamp. Please consider buying it (only $1!!!) to support your favorite small artist during the holidays. Enjoy! And happy holidays!!!

P.S. I keep saying I'm going to upload more videos and then I don't. I've just been so busy with college and dealing with health issues so it's been hard to commit. But I'm working on lots of cool stuff... I'll be back soon 👀

My links: https://linktr.ee/leemadsenmusic

LYRICS:

This might sound odd, but ever since I was young
I've wanted to spend Christmas with a special someone
I used to dream about mistletoe above my head
But I'd look around and I'd see only snowflakes instead

But luckily my dream came true
Now the holidays won't be so blue
I wished upon a star, so it's not so bizarre
That I'll be spending Christmas with you

This feeling in my heart is new
At last, it has made its debut
Our souls are intertwined, you are finally mine
And now I'm spending Christmas with you

This year, I know exactly where I'll hang mistletoe
I'll tie it up in the doorway with a little red bow
I know that once we have our first festive kiss
My heart will flutter and fill with so much bliss

I love you through and through
And I know you love me too
I wished upon a star, so it's not so bizarre
That I'll be spending Christmas with you

At last, I can call you my boo
And I'm glad the following is true
Our souls are intertwined, you are finally mine
And now I'm spending Christmas with you

OFFICIAL LYRICS:

A damsel in distress was never really my thing
And I don’t wanna marry a prince with a big ol’ ring
I’ve always wanted a sense of stability
Made for and by yours truly
But I’ve never known if that was the story for me

I guess I’ve always hated reaching out for help
Even if I’ve been burning in my own personal hell
But I guess sometimes you gotta make a choice
To cry out loud with a little voice
And if nobody seems to hear you… oh, well

But the universe has got a different plan for us
It said, “Look, here’s the deal: you better not make a fuss
Right now, you’re alone, but I can give you a home
And joy that you’ve never known, you’ll never be on your own
You just gotta give me your trust”

Then you went, up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right
B, A, start right into my heart
Unexpected but respected, incredibly smart, and here’s my favorite part:
I guess somehow I’ve been endowed
With someone brighter than the sun
But I’m not complaining ‘cause I feel like I’ve won

Now is the beginning of a brand new storyline
And although I seem to doubt the truth sometimes
I don’t think I have made a mistake
There’s no way love like this can be fake
The way you’ve stolen my heart should be considered a crime

I guess I’m afraid that I’ll lose my best friend
‘Cause I’ve always thought that good things must come to an end
But every rose has got its thorns
And I don’t think it’s my place to mourn
A feeling that has never once made me want to pretend

I wonder if you feel the same way I do
Before I met you, my heart was broken in two
Now I’m not alone, and I’ve been given a home
And joy that I’ve never known, I’ll never be on my own
It’s true, I finally broke through

‘Cause you went, up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right
B, A, start right into my heart
Unexpected but respected, incredibly smart, and here’s my favorite part:
I guess somehow I’ve been endowed
With someone brighter than the sun
But I’m not complaining ‘cause I feel like I’ve won
No, I’m not complaining ‘cause I feel like I’ve won

Lee Madsen - Sweet Tooth

Lee Madsen 2023-02-14 | Happy Valentine's Day everyone!!! I hope you all have an amazing time with your loved ones. If you don't have a significant other to give you flowers and a box of chocolates today, then I would like to step forward and gift you this song. ❤️ Available on all streaming platforms and produced by @Aliejha, Sweet Tooth is about being so used to being in bad relationships that you almost don't want to change the unhealthy pattern of constantly being surrounded by toxicity. Although that's how a lot of people feel, I just want to encourage you all to break free from those bad vibes because you deserve better!! I've had my fair share of bad relationships, and now that I can look back on them, I can confidently say that they were NOT worth it. And please remember that even though it's great to be able to show your love for someone else, the most important person you need to love is yourself. Self-care and self-love are key. I hope you all enjoy this song and that some part of this message resonates with you! Have a great day. :-)

BTW, please consider buying my music on Bandcamp! It's an easy and cheap way to support your favorite artists, especially musicians with small fanbases. The link to my page is in my Linktree, located below. All of my songs are 99 cents but you can pitch in more money if you're feeling generous! 😁

Official Lyrics:

My sweet tooth's quite confused
'Cause I've been craving you
Your sour treats make me complete
It's kind of strange but true

My sweet tooth wonders why
I'm falling for a guy
Who blows a kiss with bitterness
And makes me crash and cry

So crush my heart like it's a piece of candy
And suck the life from me like I'm a lollipop
I'll never have to worry about cavities
So honey promise me you'll never stop

My sweet tooth likes a boy
Who treats me like a toy
His rotten brain makes him insane
But I'm never annoyed

My sweet tooth's not the best
When it's put to the test
It doesn't like a chocolate pie
It chooses lemon zest

So crush my heart like it's a piece of candy
And suck the life from me like I'm a lollipop
I'll never have to worry about cavities
So honey promise me you'll never stop

I'm addicted to you
My sweet honey-boo
All my friends ask me
How I'm so carefree
I'm addicted to you
My sweet honey-boo
All my friends ask me
How I'm so carefree
Every time you...

Crush my heart like it's a piece of candy
And suck the life from me like I'm a lollipop
I'll never have to worry about cavities
So honey promise me you'll never stop
Yeah, honey promise me you'll never stop

Lee Madsen - Red Flag

Lee Madsen 2023-01-28 | HELLO THERE!!! i'm so THRILLED for the release of this song. it's been in the works for a long, long time now. it has gone through so many changes throughout the past few months and i'm absolutely in LOVE with the final result. i hope you enjoy it!! let me know if you guys would like to me to upload the OLD version of Red Flag to Soundcloud. it was incredibly sad, sappy, and slow.

i wanted to make a fun little music video for this song, even though i have no experience whatsoever with directing and editing videos. so i visited some of my favorite spots in san francisco and made a compilation of some clips! :-) check it out here: youtu.be/zRDFAR-6IFg. fun fact about this song: my ex and i broke up on January 28, 2022... so i decided that a good release date for this song would be exactly one year later.

i would like to give a HUGE thank you to Kasey Klar (@kaseyklar on instagram), the lead singer of the band Mineral King (tinyurl.com/mkmspotify) for producing this song. check him and his band out; they're incredible!! i would also like to thank @EveCoffmanCovers for singing the background vocals; their voice is spectacular. lastly, i would like to give a shout out to my friend Abby Coon for designing the cover art for this song! she's super talented. check out her work here: abbyecoon.com

OFFICIAL LYRICS:

I don’t wanna talk about it
Not anymore
I don’t wanna cry about it
On my bathroom floor

The last time I said, “I love you”
I felt this pain in my core
The last time I said, “I want you”
I was so unsure

About us
And what we had
We lost our trust
And now we’re sad

I’m tryna heal
From what we had
But I still feel
Like I’m the red flag

Every time I talk about us
I sorta break inside
Every time I write about us
I start to wonder why

Even though I hurt you badly
You still want to be mine
Even though I miss you badly
I seem to be just fine

Without you
And what we had
It’s still true
That I feel bad

But I will heal
From what we had
One day I’ll feel
Like I’m not the red flag

I’m tryna heal
From what we had
But I still feel
Like I’m the red flag

But I will heal
From what we had
One day I’ll feel
Like I’m not the red flag

Amsterdam, Netherlands - July 2022 VLOG

Lee Madsen 2022-07-24 | Amsterdam ✈ Prague ✈ Lucerne

Hi everyone! I hope you're all doing well. I decided to create this little vlog so you could see what I've been up to. We left California on 7/14 and arrived in Amsterdam on 7/15, spent three full days there (7/16-7/18), and left for Prague on 7/19! It has been a super nice trip so far. Traveling is fun. Also, I kept switching between "Holland" and "Netherlands" when choosing the title of this video... Does anyone have any insight on which one is more correct or common? I know that Amsterdam, which is located in Holland, is the capital of the Netherlands, and the Netherlands is made up of 12 provinces, while Holland is comprised of only two of those provinces... (Sorry about the "AmsterDAMN" joke, I just couldn't help myself LOL!)

BTW my song "She's Mine" was supposed to come out on 7/22/2022. However, I decided to postpone the release because I am in Europe right now and I’d rather release it when I get home! I hope you understand. Thank you for your support! :-)

The Digestive System Song

Lee Madsen 2022-05-06 | Edit 4/14/2024: I don't like this video but I'll keep it up because people seem to love it! Also, a school in Singapore used this song in the background of one of their reels that shows their students learning about the digestive system. It’s so cute! Check it out here: instagram.com/reel/Cz07x4avAIP/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Hi everyone! This song is, once again, for a project in my physiology class. It's our last project of the year. I'm graduating this year and I'll be going to college next year! How exciting! Mr. Merken, thanks for making physiology such an engaging class. I was never one to enjoy a science-based class, but hey, look at me now! :-)

my links: https://linktr.ee/leemadsenmusic

Official Lyrics:

Let’s go on a journey
Through the gastrointestinal tract
It’s a big word, it’s a little absurd,
And you might ask, “What’s that?”

Well, I’m here to tell you
About what we learned in Merken’s class
If you don’t forget, the grade that you get
Will probably let you pass

The digestive system breaks down many things
I’ll teach you about them as I play and sing
So please listen closely as I take you under my wing

Fats, carbohydrates, and proteins break down
Your stomach might grumble and make some weird sounds
But that only means that your body is safe and sound

Let’s go on a journey
Through the gastrointestinal tract
You might think it’s weird, but please have no fear
I’ll just tell you the facts

There are many organs
That partake in this paramount act
You can’t live without your intestines or mouth
Or you would feel like crap

You need nutrients, water, and proteins to grow
Without them, your development would be pretty slow
So eat some good food, enjoy it, and you’ll start to glow

Your bowels, esophagus, stomach, and more
Have so many jobs and household chores
There are acids, hormones, nerves, and enzymes galore

Let’s go on a journey
Through the gastrointestinal tract
And don’t skip the liver, it’s like a caregiver,
And it’s quite good at that

There’s more I could say
But I think that this will be my last line
If you want to learn more, you can totally score
By just looking online

The Neuromuscular Junction Song

Lee Madsen 2021-11-17 | I had a lot of fun writing this. I hope you guys like it! :-) My physiology class is a little bit difficult but very fun.

my links: https://linktr.ee/leemadsenmusic

Official Chords & Lyrics:

Am G C
Am G F G C

Here’s an introduction
To the neuromuscular junction
I learned about its function
With my favorite teacher’s aid

I wrote a little song
It won’t be very long
I hope that nothing’s wrong
So I get a passing grade

Have you ever wondered how your muscles contract?
Everyone, listen up! I’m gonna teach you the facts
Motor neurons and muscle fibers connect and then
The neuromuscular junction is a ten out of ten

A neurotransmitter called acetylcholine
Fills the synaptic space and then two ends meet
Nicotinic receptors and the ACh
Begin to bind together on the motor end plate

Here’s an introduction
To the neuromuscular junction
I learned about its function
With my favorite teacher’s aid

I wrote a little song
It won’t be very long
I hope that nothing’s wrong
So I get a passing grade

Action potential is then generated
Thanks to ion channels that are voltage-gated
Once inside the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Calcium is released, and now we’re almost done

Muscles contract due to a mechanism
Where your filaments slide, but due to this song’s rhythm
I can’t talk about all that, but hey, now you know
That neuromuscular junctions are the way to go!

Official Lyrics & Chords:

D D A E

I used be my parents’ happy little girl
But nowadays, my thoughts are in a whirl
I used to think that things would be just fine
But nowadays, I’m losing my mind
I dyed and cut my hair
Hoping it would somehow clear the air
But I still can’t breathe
It seems like I have been deceived
But I’m still looking for
The answer deep inside my core
My body and I
Just can’t find peace of mind
Like we did before
Like we did before
Like we did before
I’m trying for
War nevermore
Oh-woah-oh
Oh-woah-oh
Fluidity seems to sit right with me
Mood swings, crying, somehow happy
Fluidity seems to makes me feel fine
Even though I hate how I change all the time
My mirror calls my name
And tells me life is not a game
So I look into my eyes
And I ask myself oh why
I’m still looking for
The answer deep inside my core
My body and I
Just can’t find peace of mind
Like we did before
Like we did before
Like we did before
I’m trying for
War nevermore
Oh-woah-oh
Oh-woah-oh

Lee Madsen - Odd Reason or Two

Lee Madsen 2021-08-11 | - HELLO EVERYONE! i hope you all enjoy my first single. the Canvas Group (https://www.thecanvas.group/) and i recorded and mastered this song in the studio over the course of a week, and my dad and i filmed this video in Maui.

- i'd like to give a big thank you to Claudia & Kevin Ledesma for letting us rent their amazing property and letting us film there. if you're thinking of going to Maui, check out their house! it's amazing... vrbo.com/100896ha

OFFICIAL LYRICS:

Staring at my phone
Interpreting text tones
I thought I loved you

Saying quick goodbyes
I didn’t catch your lies
I thought I loved you

I can’t recollect
How you managed to make me a wreck
Is that something to blame on me?

I can’t recollect
How we managed to reconnect
But somehow I remember your poor apology

Do you understand how you made me feel?
Did you feel the same? Were you even real?
I know that it was not ideal

Do you understand what I was looking for?
Were we simply friends or were we something more?
I know that we are both impure

But I wanna stay with you
For an odd reason or two
I kinda want to stay with you
Stay with you

Yeah I wanna stay with you
For an odd reason or two
I kinda want to stay with you

You broke my heart
We’ve drifted so far apart
I don’t know what to do

Both of us have changed
We welcome new names
I don’t know what to do

I just can’t recall
How you managed to break down my walls
Is that something to blame on me?

I just can’t recall
How you managed to make me fall
But somehow I remember your poor apology

Do you understand how you made me feel?
Did you feel the same? Were you even real?
I know that it was not ideal

Do you understand what I was looking for?
Were we simply friends or were we something more?
I know that we are both impure

But I wanna stay with you
For an odd reason or two
I kinda want to stay with you
Stay with you

Yeah I wanna stay with you
For an odd reason or two
I kinda want to stay with you

Blackbear - Aliejha (Cover)

Lee Madsen 2020-06-06 | hi everyone! hope you guys are doing okay. we are going through difficult times. please visit this website: blacklivesmatters.carrd.co and take some time to sign petitions, text, call, email, donate, and more.

check out aliejha's music, he's amazing! :-)

i'm sorry about the reupload. i haven't told you guys this: i'm a perfectionist. and i hate it. if i hear one part of my cover that i don't like, it bothers me so much to the point that it's all that i can think about. it gives me constant anxiety, and the only way to make it go away is to reupload the video. i'm so sorry, again. i promise i'm working on fixing this about myself. i know not everything can be perfect. i always feel guilty whenever somebody comments, "is this a reupload?" because i know you guys must be annoyed. but i can't help it. thank you for the ongoing support, i really appreciate it.

lyrics and chords are included below. have a great day! :-)

c em x2 am f g am g
hey there jolene
i am begging you, don’t take my man
don’t take him just because you can
‘cause i’d never get over him jolene
what you don’t know is that he is
the man of my dreams

hey there jolene
i know your beauty is beyond compare
with flaming locks of auburn hair
with ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
i’m nothing close to you so can
you let us be

c am x4 c
he’s the one for me jolene x4
the one for me jolene

c em x2 am f g am g
hey there jolene
he knows your smile’s like a breath of spring
your voice is soft like summer rain
and i cannot compete with you jolene
i lie awake and picture him
asking, “will you marry me?”

hey there jolene
he always talks about you in his sleep
there’s nothing i can do to keep
myself from crying when he says, “jolene”
deep down i know, only for you
he’d get down on one knee

c am x4
he’s the one for me jolene x4

f g c am
and i can clearly understand
how you could easily take my man
you don't know what he means to me jolene

you could have your choice of men
but i could never love again
‘cause he’s the only one for me jolene

f g am g
i had to have this talk with you
my happiness depends on you
whatever you decide to do jolene
jolene

c em x2 am
f g am x3 g
hey there jolene
i am begging you, don’t take my man
don’t take him just because you can
‘cause i’d never get over him jolene
i wish it was just him and me
before you came i felt so free
hey there jolene i wish you’d see
why can’t you see

c am x4 c
he’s the one for me jolene x4
the one for me jolene

am c x4 c
oh ohhh oh ohhh
whoaaa
oh ohhh oooooh oooooh
oh ohhh ooooh ohhh
