Over billions of years, the star receives countless wishes from humans. It holds on to their wishes and does its best to make their dreams come true. As the star watches over the human world from far above, it wishes to experience love and friendship too. But in the vast universe, all the other stars are infinitely far apart. Humans make wishes upon the brightest stars without realising that the most beautiful stars are lonely and dying. Even in reality, stars that shine brilliantly use up their stellar fuel more rapidly and therefore burn out faster. As the star burns brightly, though it feels deep sadness within, it hopes to bring joy to everyone who sees its light in the moment. After self-learning music production from scratch and lots of literal sweat and tears, I have finally found the sound I have been seeking for many years- a unique blend of EDM, violins and heartfelt lyrics. Memory from a Star is a song I hold particularly close to heart. It is a song that came to light through experiences and emotions including a period of depression from insomnia, loneliness, helplessness, loss, betrayal, nostalgia, perseverance and persistent hope. The song is also a reminder that no matter how perfect someone may seem, we never know what they are going through inside- even the brightest stars feel loneliness and sadness too. The lyrics acknowledge the inevitable passing of time with a bittersweet nostalgia while, with an element of hope, reminding us to treasure the moments and live fully in the now. It is my hope that Memory from a Star will inspire listeners to embrace the present and also bring comfort to those who feel lonely or are facing difficulties in life.
