Would You Forgive Me?
By. Alicia Zamora
Celine Cheung is a New York-based Indie singer and songwriter who came out with a lovely new single that just dropped this Friday. Under the title ‘Would you forgive me?’. Celine expressed herself thoroughly throughout the whole song. It was beautifully written and you could feel how vulnerable this song is.
Diving deeper into it, you instantly get hit with such a deep melody followed by a punch of emotions. You instantly feel such a connection with it. It doesn’t feel like a sappy song but more of an “I’m sorry”. She isn’t asking for anyone's forgiveness but herself as if this song was a long overdue apology to herself.
Forgiveness
The emotions you feel with this song are impeccable. It makes you sit down and think back to previous memories. This song feels like a puzzle that slowly starts to put itself together from the beginning up until the end. You can see how this song must have taken a lot of courage to write and sing and release to the whole world.
Would You?
The beautiful thing about this song was how openly honest she was with herself and her emotions. Seeing that the picture for this track is a photo of her younger self I would say this song is an apology to the younger version of her. It feels like an I’m sorry for everything that has happened, everything that I let happen, and most of all a big sorry for letting her down.
Growing
Starting off with the song you can feel a bittersweetness to it like a nostalgic feel. It sends chills down your spine with how express she is in it. You can feel a bit of remorse in the apology. A remorse you feel when you let someone down for not being able to accomplish the many things you once said you would. It's the type of pain that you suffocate yourself with but deep down you know you tried but it’s still not enough. This song feels like it needed to be released.
Overall, ‘Would you forgive me?’ was truly a beautiful song. As an artist Celine is amazing and I wish her nothing but success as an upcoming artist. Down below is the link to her new song! Please give it a listen :)
