First Single Fridays: Derya – Feel Water

Kurdish singer Derya, an emerging artist, has released her first single,  Feel Water.

The music is Singer/Songwriter and meditation. The song has a relaxing, soothing quality, with the guitar in the background complementing the tune. Derya and her team composed a calming song that inspires introspection and soul-searching. It parallels Cyndi Lauper’s 80s hit True Colours with a self-love component and also evokes Celine Dion’s Taking Chances for its contemplative mood. The composition is well-structured, featuring perfect rhythm and a lovely, slow tempo. It’s impressive to hear the ocean sounds in the background, complementing the lyrics beautifully. This tune is rich in musical creativity and calming rhythms.

Derya’s voice is soft, gentle, and graceful. She performs this heartfelt song with sincerity. Her voice is so soothing with a beautiful vocal richness.

The lyrics are poetic and philosophical, delivering an inspirational message about inner peace and introspection. Metaphors of the heart as a mirror and water as cleansing suggest renewal and grounding. The tune suits meditation, and the lyrics are simple and easy to follow. It beautifully reflects the importance of staying grounded amid external chaos. The imagery is incredible, described in great detail, such as the ocean and the tears replenishing your soul. The words truly calm the heart and soul. The song is well-written with heart and soul. There’s a passage in Kurdish, which adds another layer of depth. There’s so much poetic richness in this song, using simple words that carry deep meaning.
