Welcome to my entry for the Hive Music Festival, Week 204, Round 3! Today, I’m truly happy to share my performance of “Very Bad” by Pomme. This song is not just music—it feels like a confession, a whisper of vulnerability that turns fragility into beauty. Pomme, with her delicate voice and poetic writing, manages to capture emotions that many of us have felt but rarely put into words.
The refrain, “It’s very bad, but I like it”, is simple yet powerful. It speaks to those moments when life feels heavy, when doubts creep in, and yet somehow we find comfort in acknowledging them. It’s almost paradoxical—embracing what hurts, but finding a strange kind of peace in it. That honesty is what makes the song resonate so deeply.
What I love about “Very Bad” is its intimacy. It doesn’t need grand arrangements or complex lyrics to move us. Instead, it invites us into a quiet space where imperfection is not something to hide, but something to accept. And that’s why listeners from different cultures and languages connect with it—because vulnerability is universal.
As you listen, I hope you allow yourself to feel that raw honesty. Maybe it will remind you of times when you faced uncertainty, or when you found beauty in your own flaws. Music has this incredible power to turn weakness into art, and “Very Bad” is a perfect example of that.
Thank you for being here with me in this round of the festival. If the song touches you, I’d love for you to like, comment, and share your own reflections. Let’s keep building this community where music is not just performance, but connection.

Lyrics
Pomme
Don't you give a fuck
I am not starstruck anymore
I hope you say my name
When you tell your friends, that you're a good boy
Now I have more money than you do
Does it make you feel like you failed
I recall the last time I saw you
You looked very bad
Don't you find it strange
To like girls my age or younger
I hope your sis' is fine
When you see her face, tell her that I love her
Now I have more money than you do
Does it make you feel like you failed
I recall the last time I saw you
You looked very bad
I was never in love with you
I was trying find myself
I was never in love with you
I found myself, thank you
Now that I have more money than you do
Does it make you feel like you failed
I recall the last time I saw you
You looked very bad
That I have more money than you do
Does it make you feel like you failed?
I recall the last time I saw you
You looked very bad
