about

This song is about longing for my parent’s love. I left my parents and moved from Taiwan to Australia in 2012. My family is a typical Taiwanese family that never really expressed love in a physical or verbal way. This was compounded when I moved overseas, and again with COVID-19.

In the song, I sing 'So I start to dance to keep your gaze on me, never want to let go of you'. This line is a statement that while my music career may seem to be flourishing, I still feel lonely and empty without the encouragement from my family.

lyrics

Open my eyes and I see you around
You stand up smiling, giving me your applause
Is this a dream? Is this a fantasy?
So I start to dance, to keep your gaze on me
Never want to let go of you
I want you to be mine
Is this a dream or a fantasy?
When I walk a thin line, I think of you
You're right there in front of me,
So I call out to you, I call out to you
Oh but you did not respond
Is this a dream or a fantasy?
So I start to dance, to keep your gaze on me
Never want to let go of you
I want you to be mine
Is this a dream or a fantasy?

Her bushfire tribute Garden of Eden was aired on triple J and received a 4.5 stars review from Nkechi Anele, who said: ‘Kim Yang is a force of nature, and she humbles me’ ... more
