I love how every song seems to be literal and somehow “shallow” but the real meaning of it is always deep and profound. A true heritage of the beautiful land of Palestine. Every detail is so so so meticulously written and produced. An absolute honour to support you, Nemah, we lo-o-o-o-ove you. BarakAllahu fika, this is such a subtle and precious way of dawah
I just learned the term dawah. Indeed Nemahsis has shown the world some very humanist centered fundamental principles of Islam that I did not know about. Visibility and representation really matter. I hope her bowl is full and she continues to use her voice to fill others. I’ll be a lifelong fan. 🫶🏼🇵🇸🍉
also the song captures the essence of feeling lost as you grow older. like when she says "woke up today in my middleschool bedroom except it isn’t mine," like feeling displaced from your own childhood because you cant remember what its like to be a child. or when she says always see myself at 23" and youre mentally stuck at the age when good things happened to you also just the general idea of not belonging anywhere, always on the outside looking in
Love how dreamy and soft the song starts before the beat kicks in! Her singing compliments it perfectly. It makes me think its about aging and reminiscing about memories.
seeing the flowers rising from the concrete reminds me that through perseverance, life will continue, and just because it's all torn down now, doesn't mean it always will be. we will see a day that Palestine is rebuilt and beaming with life, without the occupation in its clutches. thank you for your beautiful music, and your reminder to stay strong.
oh my gawd the beat change at 0:54. it really elevates the song to another level. this music video reminds me of Criminal and i wanna be your right hand with your subversive interpretive dance and the melody. youve really outdone yourself Nemah
ive been listening to the album for weeks and its such a reward really paying attention to the lyrics. as she said "metaphor can't ignore" 😆 its giving me songwriting inspiration but also really its just breaking my heart in all the good ways a song could do 🍉
I could feel my knees dislocating while watching this video 😂 I love your music, your creativity ❤️ I hope your career just grows and grows babe you deserve
Woke up today In my middle school bedroom Except, it isn't mine But the one I'd always dreamed of I had a dream, it's not like me to remember Maybe it's a sign I was brushing my teeth as they all fell out What does it mean? Always see myself at 23 Just sittin' here Remindin' me Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet) Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet) Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet) Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet) I never looked in my high neighbor's swimming pool, unless I was making sure It hadn't dried out Can't let it dry out, or go south What does it mean? Mattress taller than my feet can reach Just hangin' there Remindin' me Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet) Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet) Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet) Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet)
This is perfection... Thank you for this amazing song. We all have it stuck in our heads Even 55 year old metal head men lol On and on...with the ripple effect of LOVE!!! "We need to slow down"🩷 Hang in there everyone🕊️
@@helenross1405oh wow thank you for telling me, i love how she ties in Palestinian symbols and motif. Makes it even more meaningful thinking of all that red poppies represent about loss 🥺❤
@ Hey, I think I might have been wrong about the flowers. I looked at Palestinian poppies again, and they don’t look like what is shown in the video. I’m so sorry!!! I think I was definitely wrong and that’s my bad. Sorry!!
Every song you’ve released as singles from your new project only make me more and more excited to listen to the whole thing! This song and fine print really mean a lot to me- your art means a lot period❤️ We love you, Nema❤
I am not going to be able to find the words to properly comment on the slow, almost "sunrise" change that happened in me over the course of the song. The metaphor made itself known quite quickly... and yet at the same time, it took the entire song to feel ready to touch it? Not because it was something fragile, but that it was something precious, and sorrowful, and maybe even something that I hadn't quite earned the beauty of, but was being show anyway -- like a flickering light, sitting between clasped hands, toward which I was beckoned with a soft smile and a knowing wink. And when I peered between the fingers to see that which had been burning, I realized then that this light will burn for far longer than I, far longer than us, and far longer than any wind that raged against the hands that held it? That's not a very good way of explaining the experience, but it's all I've got lol. The feeling is too soft and tender to subject to my attempts to dissect it in a comment ❤ But I am grateful for it -- the sorrow, the tenderness, and the light.
@avryantoinette this is by far more beautifully put than you know … sometimes we haven‘t quite earned the beauty of realizing fully the magic in someonelses body of work/ soul or expression, sometimes we have yet to realize our own - for they are all the same. I Hope and pray for all of us to realize that or to remember it. 🙏 before there is nothing left of it … of us …
I can't help thinking of Annie Lennox and Bjork, but there is absolutely an individual voice there unlike most music these days. The imagery is powerful as always. A Palestinian powerhouse.

and we all say in union "we love you Nemah"
We love u Nemah
We love you Nemah

We love you nemah!

this comment makes me feel like you get me on a deeper level. thank you❤😭 yes and yes!!!
I just learned the term dawah. Indeed Nemahsis has shown the world some very humanist centered fundamental principles of Islam that I did not know about. Visibility and representation really matter. I hope her bowl is full and she continues to use her voice to fill others. I’ll be a lifelong fan. 🫶🏼🇵🇸🍉
O 😊l
This sounds like something people would play in a movie❤❤❤ she always delivers.
My thoughts exactly, this should be in a great movie!
Yass. Like a main character falling back in love with life @@l.b4723
her music is so cinematic
also the song captures the essence of feeling lost as you grow older. like when she says "woke up today in my middleschool bedroom
except it isn’t mine," like feeling displaced from your own childhood because you cant remember what its like to be a child. or when she says
always see myself at 23" and youre mentally stuck at the age when good things happened to you
also just the general idea of not belonging anywhere, always on the outside looking in
so beautiful
Cannot wait to buy this album!!
Me too
SAAAAME!!!!
Love how dreamy and soft the song starts before the beat kicks in! Her singing compliments it perfectly. It makes me think its about aging and reminiscing about memories.
" I've got concrete on my feet" 🫶🏽
Can’t expect anything less than a hit from someone that never misses ❤️
you are the sweetest omg❤
@@Nemahsisno you 🥰
@@Nemahsisfr tho, your voice is amazing alone but the visuals- you are EVERYTHING. This is full spectrum artistry.
seeing the flowers rising from the concrete reminds me that through perseverance, life will continue, and just because it's all torn down now, doesn't mean it always will be. we will see a day that Palestine is rebuilt and beaming with life, without the occupation in its clutches. thank you for your beautiful music, and your reminder to stay strong.
The interview with Rolling Stones was EVERYTHING! You’re unstoppable.

The lyrics are tattooed in the back of my brain already
Love from South Africa! I wasn't expecting the best groove of the week to hit this hard! Thank you
oh my gawd the beat change at 0:54. it really elevates the song to another level. this music video reminds me of Criminal and i wanna be your right hand with your subversive interpretive dance and the melody.
youve really outdone yourself Nemah
It also feels like the counterpoint to dollar signs where she breaks free finally!
yesssss
This song gives me so much life ❤

Woke up today
In my middle school bedroom
Except, it isn't mine
But the one I'd always dreamed of
I had a dream, it's not like me to remember
Maybe it's a sign
I was brushing my teeth as they all fell out
What does it mean?
Always see myself at 23
Just sittin' here
Remindin' me
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down
You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet)
Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet)
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down
You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet)
Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet)
I never looked in my high neighbor's swimming pool, unless
I was making sure
It hadn't dried out
Can't let it dry out, or go south
What does it mean?
Mattress taller than my feet can reach
Just hangin' there
Remindin' me
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down
You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet)
Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet)
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I figured it out
Ah-ha, uh-ha, I need to slow down
You have me runnin' (I got concrete on my feet)
Oh-oh, you have me runnin' (Coloured concrete on my feet)
Thank you! :)
beautiful 🌹
