Grigale tells the presenter Jānis Šipkēvics that she needs to cry in the most difficult moments of her life: “I generally cry quite a lot, I laugh a lot, I have those emotions on all sides. And of course sitting down at the piano therapeutically and writing out the pain is also something I do. In fact, one of the most profound songs was written in those moments.”
She cites examples from her work – the song “Filma ko nejnju seti”, which is about the war, and “I’ll be enough”, which was written at a very difficult moment:
“I felt, well, so inferior to the earth, so untalented and so unnecessary that I sat, cried, wrote, and such a miracle came from those tears at the end.”
Asked about the song in English, the musician says that a new phase has begun for her, and the year 2023 was a year of great changes.
“I decided that I also needed to change something in my creative life, and it was also inspired by meeting wonderful people from Sweden, from other countries, who told me: “Hey Marta, everything is fine with you!” And I am one of those people who grow not from being scolded and scolded, but from encouragement, and I felt so very, very uplifted and so encouraged that I let go of that fear a little more and dared to start writing in English,” says Grigale.
