Marina Maximilian Blumin - Deep in Dew



Marina Maximilian Blumin has always been a colorful and talented voice among the popular Israeli performers of the last decade. She started on "A Star is Born" and even from the first episodes it seemed like she was already a star. She blew people away with her talent and her self-confidence and ended up taking second place. She's one of those singers who might have made it without performing on a reality show but also might have missed her chance and I really think it would be a loss to our culture if we didn't know who she is. Although it's been three years since the show she's just now releasing her first album. It's not like she disappeared- she was all over acting in theatre musicals, taking part in projects and just being talked about. From the sound of her first single, it seems like she made a good decision to take her time. There's a calming quality about this song but without trying too hard and God knows we could use songs like this, especially during these tense and uneasy days. Marina added her own music to Leah Goldberg's poem and a part in Russian which I love even though I don't understand. A beautiful song.

A basket full of stars
The smell of sweet grass
Deep in dew

Here your beats are coming near
The shaking brings droplets
Deep in dew
My heart beats
