New Video! Behind The Songs: When Will I Learn

I think you meant, when describing the avalanche, not so much dying, but being ok with whatever comes next. Bravery. It takes immense bravery to accept and feel the feels. You’ll get better and better at this. It’s a skill, Kina, just like playing the violin or riding a horse and most people aren’t good at it straight out of the box. The more sure you become within yourself, the less you will care about what others think or feel or say about you and the easier it will be to stand against the tide. You do realize I hope, that you have already done this in many areas of your life. Example: deciding to be your own record label instead of becoming a slave to someone else’s vision of you. That’s brave. Own it, girl!

This was awesome! Looking forward to hearing about all the other songs :)

Yeah you’re right

That’s so cool

Hi Kina, be assured, that it was such a good idea to tear down this wall ! My support goes with two other artists, who does this too, one of them from time to time, the other one regularly. Both are highly respected for the courage it obviously needs, to open up and one really needs any kind word and support, that is available ! It´s not only about helping themself, but much more, to help others, who are more ore less concerned with anxieties, depression or simply a lack of what is called to be social. Thank you !

I really enjoyed this peek at your songwriting process and how this song started. This song and album have really helped me deal with some similar issues and my depression as well. It was really wonderful to see a peek of how our experiences overlapped and how they differed. Thanks for doing this video, I enjoyed every bit of it.

This is awesome Kina, thank you for baring your soul with us! I totally get the social anxiety thing, I too have gotten better over the years but it's always comforting to hear how others experience it as well. And I loved hearing about your songwriting process!

This song means things to me that barely overlap with Kina's creation story. We each bring ourselves to everything we see, hear and do. I think that's what I like best about Kina's music: It feels so personal to me. There's a place in it for me to paint my own story, to find my own meaning. Making it, in a cool way, "my" song too.

You should do all the ‘behind the song videos in your PJ’s :) Thank you for sharing this, I loved hearing more about the details of this song & about your favourite lyrics. You did such a great job with the video too. It’s one of my favourites. <3

The "not knowing who I am around other people" part really struck a nerve. I feel like that and never knew how to put it. Man, it can be that simple :) Also: "I just needed to be present". Amen. Thank you for sharing.

This really put things into perspective for me. I am currently in a place where I am facing all my emotions. I have decided to stop running from them or trying to create excuses for how I'm feeling and actually change something to benefit me and my happiness. I, too struggle with the amount of emotion I have but I am learning day by day that I am who I am and I can't change it, I just have to embrace it. Thank you so much for sharing. I feel closer to your soul each time I connect with your lyrics ❣️

I super love this "behind the song" videos. I feel something amazing/surprising feeling as i watched this video. I think the last time i seen one of this was the music video for "Too Soon"

Kina, This song resonated with me to my core….I played it over and over last year whilst I was fighting through some very very difficult times….fighting old demons, whilst losing my heart together with my wife’s miscarriage….it gave me perspective and an avenue to grieve…. “Wanted to see the light Thought I could find the fight In me to get me through my day “Maybe it’s just pretend But I will try again Until I’m happy in my space When will I learn” As men, it’s so hard to express vulnerability and hurt….together with lyrics from History….it gave me a chance to….“Sing it out, sing it out” Timeless…..thank you xoxo
