“Be My Princess” is a heartfelt, nostalgic love ballad that serves as a tribute to a cherished high school memory. The song’s narrative centers on the my teenage crush on a girl who was not only beautiful, young, and academically brilliant but also wonderfully down-to-earth.

The story focuses on nervousness and ultimate pride in successfully asking her to slow dance at a school disco. This moment, characterized by her irresistible “cutest smile,” became an indelible, joyful memory that my wishes could last eternally. The lyrics directly reference these specific feelings and details, celebrating this simple act of courage as the start of their “crazy love story.” The song is a reflection that continues to paint a “big smile” on my face years later.

New metal single, “Big Boy Don’t Cry,” is a powerful anthem that defies the outdated rule that men must suppress their emotions. Inspired by a moment where Andy uncontrollably cried while consoling a grieving friend, the song argues that vulnerability and empathy are true signs of strength, not weakness. The track acts as a “sonic sledgehammer” to smash the myth of toxic masculinity, urging listeners to embrace their feelings.

This is the story of a man who defies logic, distance, and public opinion in pursuit of love. Inspired by a childhood memory of a friend who traveled ten thousand miles to chase an extraordinary girl, the narrator reflects on the power of deep, unwavering devotion. The man in the story is driven by pure emotion — willing to risk embarrassment, rejection, and ridicule just to be near the one who makes his heart race. While others call his actions silly or obsessive, he sees them as necessary steps toward happiness. For him, love is not about being understood — it’s about being true to what he feels. “Crazy in Love” is a tribute to those who dare to follow their hearts, no matter how irrational it may seem to the world.

“You’re My Heart” is a heartfelt tribute to the joy of being in love and the quiet beauty of being loved. This uplifting piece explores the emotional richness of everyday moments — from shared glances to morning routines — that become extraordinary when experienced with someone special. It celebrates the harmony love brings to life’s simplest rhythms, reminding us that happiness often lives in the mundane.

For those already in love, it’s a celebration. For those still waiting, it’s a promise: that true love is real, worth the wait, and often arrives when we’re living our most authentic lives. With warmth and optimism, “You’re My Heart” invites everyone to embrace love, share joy, and let the good vibes lead the way.

HAD IT: It’s time to cash in all those hours.

You put in the time. The 8-hour days, the months, the years. Now, it’s time for the ultimate payoff: freedom.

“Had It” is the anthem for that exact moment—the one where you throw your hands up and say, “I’m done with the grind, let’s live!”

This is the song you blast when you stop, when you celebrate a big win, or even a spectacular failure. Go ahead. Turn it up and dance until you sweat. You’ve earned this moment.

This is the heartfelt journey of a Lao person who has spent most of their life overseas, returning only briefly to their homeland. Though they have visited a handful of provinces—including Vientiane, Luang Prabang, Champasak, and Savannakhet—their time has always been too short to truly explore Laos in its entirety.

With a deep longing to reconnect with their roots, they dream of traveling across all 17 provinces, from the northern mountains of Phongsaly to the southern fields of Champasak, their birthplace. Their bucket list highlights four provinces in particular—Bokeo, Houaphanh, Xaisomboun, and Sainyabuli—each offering unique landscapes, traditions, and cultural treasures.

More than just a travel plan, this story reflects a search for belonging and identity. Despite living abroad for most of their life and sometimes facing questions about their ethnicity, they affirm their Lao heritage with pride. The journey across Laos is not only about seeing new places, but also about rediscovering themselves, embracing their culture, and fulfilling a lifelong promise: to truly know the land that made them who they are.
