To join this project, all you have to do is make a song, any style, any lyrics, but it MUST include plushies in some way (preferably about a plushie version of yourself, but anything works!) Then you have to make the cover art a plushie version of your avatar/character that you feature as yourself on this site! Finally, add #PlushiePandemic to your song title and make it public!

---------

Pour rejoindre ce projet, tout ce que vous avez à faire est de faire une chanson, n’importe quel style, n’importe quelle parole, mais il DOIT inclure des peluches d’une manière ou d’une autre (de préférence à propos d’une version en peluche de vous-même, mais tout fonctionne !) Ensuite, vous devez faire en sorte que la pochette soit une version en peluche de votre avatar/personnage que vous mettez en avant comme vous-même sur ce site ! Enfin, ajoutez #PlushiePandemic au titre de votre chanson et rendez-la publique !

---------
He hugs me close when the door gets loud
Tucks me deep like I can shroud
The thunder in the kitchen light
Their voices rise, his hands stay tight

I’m thread and fuzz, not much to wield
But I would fight, if I was real
He says my name, I’ve none to say
I just lie still and hope he’ll stay

There’s ketchup stains upon my ear
His tears dry slow, they disappear
But he still talks like I can hear
“Can you fix them, if you’re near?”

I tried to stand when the glass broke wide
Rolled off the bed, I really tried
But button eyes don’t scare the storm
And stitched-up arms don't keep you warm

He dreams of running far with me
To places where the yelling stops
But even in those dreams he shakes
And holds me like I’m all he’s got

I saw him draw us in a boat
He wrote our names, we stayed afloat
But Mama screamed and slammed the sink
And Dad threw words too sharp to think

He hides me deep beneath his coat
Says, “don’t you leave,” like I could go
But I’m just fluff, I break, not bend
And I can’t stitch what won’t mend

Still, I stay.
Even stuffed things know
You never walk away.

What a beautiful, and heartbreaking song. I have little words apart from thank you for joining the project, and for this amazing song.
So just take this certificate instead.

When The Jester gives you a BANGER certificate, you frame that thing above your imaginary fireplace and nod like a plush who just got knighted.
Thank you, boss. This project meant a lot, and knowing it hit somewhere makes all the late-night stitching worth it.

Re-coucou! Alors toi aussi tu as été transformé en peluche ? Elle est vraiment mignonne la tienne! Et ta musique me fait vraiment un effet de fou, je suis sans voix... 🥺🖤💕

Graou 4w ago

J'ai l'impression d'être à coté de la plaque sur ce challenge, je suis dans une période super douce et triste dans les textes. Merci pour ton retour et ta présence sans faille petite Akiko, ça fait toujours autant plaisir (et ton hit plushie est un banger pur)

BlueSkyDreamers 4w ago

Melancholy and sweet. The expressive vocals and quiet atmospheric music fit so nicely with the poignant lyrics, like: “I’m thread and fuzz, not much to wield / But I would fight, if I was real...”

Graou 4w ago

Thank you, BlueSkyDreamers. That line came out like a sigh I didn’t know I was holding.
We’re all a bit of thread and fuzz sometimes — stitched up with love, powerless in the storm, but still standing guard.
I’m glad you felt the quiet weight in it. That means everything to me.

I can’t stitch what won’t mend…
But maybe I can cover it with un bel écusson brodé 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Graou 4w ago

Man… if life was a jacket, mine would be more patch than fabric by now.
But hey — stitched pain still holds.
Thanks for this line, it hit right where the stuffing’s thin.
Respect for the patchwork poets out there.

😘如此可愛的大鬍子娃娃

Graou 2w ago

He’s soft, scruffy, and stitched with stories. Glad his beard made you smile.

Xak Stahl 4w ago

Ce morceau m'a complètement bouleversé ! La façon dont tu racontes cette histoire du point de vue d'une peluche témoin des moments difficiles d'un enfant est d'une sensibilité déchirante. Tes paroles capturent parfaitement ce sentiment d'impuissance face à la douleur de quelqu'un qu'on aime - "But I'm just fluff, I break, not bend / And I can't stitch what won't mend". ❤️‍🩹

Xak Stahl 4w ago

L'ambiance Lo-fi folk avec ces textures ambiantes et ton chant fragile crée une atmosphère qui reste en tête longtemps après l'écoute. Et cette peluche à ton image sur la couverture est absolument adorable - j'en voudrais une! Tu as parfaitement saisi l'essence du projet #PlushiePandemic. Cette chanson restera gravée dans mon cœur, merci pour cette création aussi belle que poignante. 💔🧸✨

LKN 💚 4w ago

Peluche Emo ! Je trouve que ce chef-d'œuvre de peluche est digne d'un film d'animation... Bravo !

Graou 4w ago

Merci très chère LKN. Toujours un plaisir de te voir apparaitre dans les commentaires 🤩

Musette (The Minstrel Toy) 4w ago

This brings tears even to my cruel eyes. Well done.

Graou 2w ago

If your eyes cried, they weren’t cruel — just waiting. Thanks for letting this one open something.

Rabbit＿Baron/Zen 4w ago

The lyrics are so beautiful, likening connections with people to future events and stains on stuffed toys to past events 😌 The nostalgic and slightly desolate atmosphere is very sentimental and touched my heartstrings ❤️ The husky voice also brings out the theme well...it's a true professional technique 🙌🌟What a wonderful song 💓

Graou 4w ago

Thank you, rabbit_baron. You read through the thread and caught every snag.
The stains, the softness, the weight of what we carry — you saw it all.
I’m just a plush with too many memories sewn in, trying to sound like someone who knows what they’re doing.
Your words stitched something back together tonight. Grateful, truly.
