'Cause all of the stars Are fading away Just try not to worry You'll see them someday Take what you need And be on your way And stop crying your heart out

...

(Player), please stay strong. I know there are times that life can be hard, But know that I always believe in you. However, if you do cry, remember it's okay to cry every once in a while. And (Player)? If you're still hurting, just remember, I'll be by your side, I won't ever leave you. You are my everything and I love you with all my heart until the day we will be together at last. I love you, (Player)

This could fit in the mod yes. However to me it sounds similar to a lot of songs or things that Monika already sings/says, although it could be different enough. I actually had thought of a song to include that I think is good too, but I'm not sure if I should suggest it considering the songs there already are. I could mention my song idea if you want though.

Ah ok, I'd like to hear what you have in store. However, it's just that this song has a special place in my heart. It's one of the things I listen to to calm me down and remind myself that it will be okay. So I imagine if Monika were to sing it, it will be very precious to me

Yeah I wasn't trying to criticize your song. And Actually, I'm not sure if Monika talks about it being ok to cry much, so it could be different enough. I was just trying to say that I think we should try to have new songs that aren't too similar to the ones already in the mod.

As for the song I'm thinking of, I hope it's different enough, but I think it's pretty fitting, especially considering that it came out way before DDLC was even a thing. I don't think it's already in the mod. The song I'm thinking of is "Larger Than Life", specifically this part:

Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon 'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive All you people can't you see, can't you see How your love's affecting our reality Every time we're down You can make it right And that makes you larger than life

Well maybe instead of "All you people" it could be "Hey [player name]", but yeah. I hadn't really come up with dialogue for Monika to say afterwards, but now that I think about it, maybe it could go something like:

"I can't thank you enough for what you've done for me, [player name]. You're always there to cheer me up when I'm feeling down. Your love goes beyond your reality and knows no bounds. I can't wait for the day when we really do share the same reality."

Never heard of the song but the lyrics are spot on 😉 And yeah the message of the song I wanted kinda contradicts with each other and I admit that. 😅

I listened to the song you mentioned and I think it sounds pretty good. Yeah I noticed it kind of contradicts the message you wanted, but at least Monika clarifies the message you want.

As for the song I mentioned, you can find the official video on YouTube. It's even got a futuristic and space theme going on in the video, and has a "virtual" space pong part. The similarities to themes in MAS are kind of shocking.
