A song about finding your person and sticking with them, whether its a romantic thing or friendship thing.
I’ll Go Under the Weather, to Get You Over the Moon
Do you really wanna stress?
All the same stuff that you stressed, last time
you already did the work
You know how to hit a curve ball
Tell me are you having fun?
Whats the point if you're having no fun?
We just worry useless stuff
Life’s a lovely cosmic stop, off
i’ll do anything
you want me to do
ill go under the weather
to get you over the moon
Please be nicer to yourself
You’re the nicest person i’ve ever met
I’m in your corner til’ the end
As a love or as a best friend
i’ll do anything
you want me to do
ill go under the weather
to get you over the moon

Blending humor with mental health struggles, alternative songwriter/illustrator/podcaster Brett Newski makes fun of his own depression by offering mental health boosts in his first book " It's Hard to be a Person: defeating anxiety, surviving the world, and having more fun."
“I love how easy Newski makes it to plow through the dark stuff with some well placed humor and grit.” -Stelth Ulvang (of the Lumineers)

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Years ago, somewhere on the Internet, I posted a few dumb drawings making fun of my own anxiety and depression.
The response to them was warmer than anticipated, and people kept asking for more. Blending humor with pure depression seemed to strike a chord with a decent amount of people. So I kept going, and after about three years of drawing, I had enough dumb drawings for a book called It's Hard to be a Person: defeating anxiety, surviving the world, and having more fun.

“Life Upside Down” was produced by Hutch Harris of Sub-Pop & Saddle Creek legends The Thermals and engineered by Beau Sorenson (Death Cab for Cutie, Superchunk, Bob Mould), Life Upside Down is a beautiful catharsis to a happier brain and sense of belonging. If you frequently find yourself stuck in your own head traffic, this record might help get you free.
Brett Newski has certainly kicked his own ass over the past 6 years, touring infinitely (mostly alone) and wandering down the rabbit hole of anxiety, depression, and wallowing self-doubt. All of these negatives have blossomed into positive creative energy on his third LP.
