Heize Celebrates 11 Years in Music with “Broken Diary”Live Clip
Renowned singer-songwriter Heize has delighted fans by unveiling a special live performance of her poignant track “Broken Diary,”commemorating her 11th anniversary in the music industry. This heartfelt tribute was shared on her official YouTube channel on January 17, providing an unexpected surprise for her loyal followers.
In her heartfelt message, Heize expressed her appreciation, stating, “Thank you to everyone who has been with me throughout this journey.”Her deep gratitude reflects the strong bond she has developed with her audience over the years.
Unpacking “Broken Diary”
“Broken Diary,”which is the third track from her recent eighth EP, Fallin, released on November 6, resonates with themes of nostalgia and reflection. In the song, Heize reminisces about the memories encapsulated in her old journal entries, touching on dreams and relationships she once cherished as imperishable.
“Now, ten years later, some of those feelings, people, and beliefs have faded,”she reflected in an interview with The Korea Herald.
She elaborated on the emotional depth of the track, stating that it embodies her realization about the fleeting nature of what she once believed to be eternal. This sentiment underscores the complexity of human emotions and relationships over time.
Artistic Evolution and Growth
Heize views this project as a significant milestone in her evolution as a songwriter. Unlike her earlier works, which often featured a more straightforward approach, Fallin represents a shift towards more abstract and profound lyricism. “The lyrics back in the Unpretty Rapstar (2015) days were raw and straightforward, reflecting a simpler, unfiltered expression,”she noted.
As she has evolved, so too have her creative insights. “Over time, my lyrics have become more complex,”Heize explained, attributing this growth to her increasing understanding of her audience and her personal reflections. She aspires to write with less restraint, aiming for a more liberated and authentic lyrical style in her future songs.
Challenges of Songwriting
Despite the challenges, Heize acknowledges the difficulty in crafting lyrics for more uplifting songs. “It’s hard to write lyrics for brighter songs. Maybe it’s a bit of an obsession, but since people love my breakup songs so much, I sometimes feel it’s almost my role to keep delivering them,”she shared. However, she remains optimistic that her perspective might shift if she encounters new love.
With her continued growth as an artist and her commitment to genuine expression, Heize is set to captivate her audience with future works that promise emotional depth and authenticity.
