JAKARTA - Singer and songwriter Sheryl Sheinafia is back to greet Indonesian music lovers with the release of her latest single titled Tenggelam.
This work, which is one of the most personal materials, was launched as the opening gate to Sheryl's latest full-length album, "Bittersweet".
Through "Tenggelam", the 29-year-old musician explores the emotional side of pain that people often experience in silence.
This song describes the situation when a person continues to play a role and meet the various expectations of life, but emotionally feels alienated and not really understood.
Although at first glance it sounds like a narrative about the dynamics of a romantic relationship, this work has a much broader meaning.
"Tenggelam" comes as a form of reflection on the journey of life when a person slowly loses himself due to bearing emotional burdens, pressures, and responsibilities that pile up.
Through the latest single, Sheryl invites listeners to dare to take a break and admit that feeling tired, fragile, and lost is a natural and human thing.
"'Drowning' is not about giving up. This song is about realizing the moment when we feel like we are drowning, then having the courage to admit those feelings," said Sheryl Sheinafia in her statement, Tuesday, July 22.
Instead of presenting a perfect ending or an instant answer, this single gives listeners room to honestly immerse themselves in emotions. For Sheryl, showing vulnerability is not a form of weakness, but a form of honesty with oneself to keep moving forward without always having to pretend to be strong.
The song "Tenggelam" also holds an important role as a common thread that binds the entire concept of the album "Bittersweet".
The album is infused with the essence of the duality of life that always goes hand in hand, such as happiness and sadness, hope and loss, and the process of recovering and being hurt.
The release of this work is a continuation of Sheryl's consistent musical exploration in the Indonesian entertainment industry, after previously releasing the singles "Siapa Suruh Jatuh Cinta?" and "Sendiri".
Currently, "Tenggelam" can be officially listened to on all digital music platforms as the opening of a new chapter in Sheryl Sheinafia's musical journey.
