“Такою як є” by Ukrainian songwriter Fokla Fortel is an indie track with a mid-tempo feel and a multi-layered mood: romantic, uplifting, happy, and melancholic. It features tender female vocals and emotionally mature lyrics about choosing each other and emotional closeness. Fokla’s background in film directing adds vivid imagery and a subtle cinematic aftertaste. This song is original and unpublished and is available for exclusive or non-exclusive publishing deals. Fokla is also open to co-writing and adaptation for the right project. (Status: demo / final version.)
