🐰 Indie pop choir, Menagerie, performs this original choral arrangement of 'Tightrope' (2010) by – Janelle Monáe. Monáe said she wrote the song to help people deal with issues head on - “'Tightrope' is basically dealing with how in life it's important to keep your balance and not get too high or low about things during the time when you're either being praised or being criticised.”
