from our golden night
altın renkli gecemizden
gözlerini görebilmek için
You are alive
hiçbir şeyin önemi yoktur
Afterneath
that they're not really depressing at all.
hüzünlü olmadığını fark ettim.
important songs we have.
sahip olduğumuz en önemli şarkılar.
anlatan şarkılar,
I just never tire of hearing
hafifletirler.
part of being human
en gerçek ve derin tarafına değinirler
where it lingers and rots.
orada kalıp çürümeye mahkum olan.
these hard emotions,
tekrar hissettirdiğini düşünüyorum.
tedavi eden bir biçimde.
that we're not alone in darkness.
yalnız olmadığımızı hatırlatır biçimde.
known as "mono no aware,"
diye bilinen bir deyim vardır.
as "the bittersweet poignancy of things,"
anlamına gelir.
"acı" tarafı da denebilir.
farkında olmaktır,
sadness as things pass by in life,
ve geçici bir hüzün hissettirirler
softly lingering sadness
tüm bu gerçekliğin geçiciliğine dair
in lots of life stories and moments
zaman ve şarkılarda
is the celebration of the cherry blossom.
kiraz çiçeğinin kutlanmasıdır.
is no more impressive
daha etkileyici değildir
kısa süreli olmasıdır.
within a single week --
on the gentlest breeze --
more beautiful.
dokunaklılığına hayat verir.
than this, and --
bağdaşamaz ve--
of my songwriting for years,
beni yazmaya teşvik eden
in music, in song --
in poetry and painting,
none of us alone in darkness.
yalnız olmadığını gösterir.
that I call "Killing Me,"
"Dayanamıyorum" adını verdim.
I've been talking about.
örnek olacak bir nitelikte.
from the perspective of somebody else,
yazdığım ilk şarkı,
my late grandfather,
hayatına devam ederken,
new things in her life --
olduğunu görürken--
her soul mate.
would you wake up today?
how I've grown in this place
göstermek istiyorum sana
When the winter comes to stay
her şey çok daha zor
all the words I never said
kafamdan atamıyorum
That you're not here with me
The wonders I can see
and time rushes away
ve zaman çok hızlı geçiyor
like we did when we were young
when we were young
gülüyorum hâlâ
that you're not here with me
The wonders I can see
The wonders I can see
The wonders I can see

Why you should listen
Luke Sital-Singh is an internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter from the UK. In 2012 he released his debut single "Fail For You," which first introduced to the world his deft ability to craft songs with a mesmerizing piercing emotional quality. The song went on to be featured in numerous TV shows including Grey’s Anatomy. At the end of 2013, Sital-Singh was featured in the BBC's Sound of 2014 list and signed to Parlophone records, who released his debut record The Fire Inside later that year.
After a couple of years touring the world and opening for artist such as Villagers, The Staves, Martha Wainwright and Kodaline, in 2017 Sital-Singh released his sophomore record Time Is A Riddle, which featured the stand out song "Killing Me." His songs are rich and somber and have the tendency to stop you in your tracks. Of his songwriting, Sital-Singh says: "I like writing about the heavy things. There’s a lot of shallow stuff out there and that’s fine for certain contexts. My fun is diving as deep as I can. Inside myself and, if I can, inside others and writing songs that are as honest as I can make them. Honest to the struggles we all face, the sadness but more importantly, the hope."
