About this sleeping song

Its sigil is drawn from its own sound: the curve is its loudness from start to finish, the 6 petals come from its tempo, the inner moon from its brightness, and the star marks its loudest moment.

Why so strict about streaming?

Purrple Cat Self Releases have no Content ID, so there's nothing to clear when you use them as intended.
