Predawn’s music has always been ace at capturing the smallest details of life – on her last EP, she captured the span of seconds where relationships bloom and wither excellently – and new song “Keep Silence” does it again. It’s about a pretty common experience, waiting for someone to call you back on the phone – the first line is “I used to hate the telephone” before Predawn details way she tries to ignore the lack of ringing in her life. From there, she slowly “learns patience” and accepts that she has to wait for the person on the other end of the line – though she never sounds thrilled about it, more accepting of how things are. It’s a charming slice of life song touching on something highly relateable to anyone who has ever left a voicemail and then waited to see if someone important would get back to you. Listen above.
New Predawn: “Keep Silence”
Predawnの音楽は人生における短いけれども大切な「瞬間」を上手く捉えています。前EPでは関係がどう発展し、崩れていくのかを捉えていましたね。新曲”Keep Silence”も同様です。誰かから電話が掛かってくるのを待つという日常的な内容。”I used to hate the telephone” という歌詞に始まり淡々と心の移り変わりを説明しています。”learns patience”する事の大切さに気付き、相手の気持ちも理解できるように。そういう物なんだと爽やかに歌い上げられたこの曲は、留守電を残しても電話がこなかった事のあるあなたならきっと共感出来るはずです。視聴は上から。
