Aminata releases autumn-sore hit “Eyes Salt”

Inevitably approaching autumn, singer Aminata has prepared a painful ballad “Eyes Salt” for her fans.

Aminata did not intend to perform the song “Eyes of Salt” herself at first: “It was not for me. A couple of years ago I went to the UK to work with producer and songwriter Pete Barringer. Together, we wrote four songs in English that we planned to give back to other artists for performance.

“Salted Eyes” was also one of them and written in English, called “Lit the fire”, “says Aminata.

Already during the creation of the English version of the song, Aminata realized that this is more special than the other three songs, but the agreement remains an agreement – it is written for another artist.

For more than a year, this song “stood” in the far corner of the computer, and I had already forgotten about it. One day I accidentally found it, listened and understood – this song perfectly describes my current feelings and resonates with my inner strings, ”says the singer.

This was followed by permission from Pete as to whether Aminata could convert the song into Latvian and perform it herself.

As Aminata wanted the Latvian version to have special words for this song, she addressed Jānis Šipkēvics, a member of the group “Instruments”: “I wanted the words to be special, true and precise. No one else in Latvia writes lyrics the way Jānis Šipkēvics does.

I addressed John, and he wrote wonderful words that touched the depths of my heart, so accurately reflecting my feelings that every time I sang them, my body took over. The feeling that John has looked into my soul and fully understood it. ”

Aminata emphasizes that the song “Eyes Salt” means a lot to her, because this is one of the songs through which she manages to “rework” a negative experience and instead of keeping pain and resentment in herself, this song allows you to let it all go. , forgive and breathe freely.
