Nilüfer Yanya shares new track ‘Midnight Sun’

With her second album ‘Painless’ set for release on 4th March, Nilüfer Yanya is sharing new track ‘Midnight Sun’. “It’s a song about recognising what it feels like to be pushed down but wanting to resist,” she explains. “I really like the imagery of ‘midnight sun’ as a lyric as it insinuates a light guiding you through darkness. The wings carry their own symbolism - freedom, lightness, flight, fantasy… “If I could pick what people saw and heard it would be: seeing the beauty of confrontation and the necessity of rebellion.” Check it out below. ‘Painless’ Tracklisting: 1. the dealer 2.
