Functioning as our point of entry into Eden Cami’s elegant, meaningful artistic universe, ‘Water Take Me Away’ managed to capture our undivided, unfiltered attention, thanks to a cathartic and wholesome soulful pop allure that feels timeless as much as it feels urgent. It’s obvious that Cami’s music emerges from a place of deep authenticity and vulnerability; she’s a rather honest creative, a quality that influences the listening experience positively.
As we let ourselves be hypnotised by Eden’s evocative and vibrant vocals, we enter a trance-like state, finally relating to the melancholic, nostalgic theming that often informs the Berlin-based songstress. Hailing from Berlin, Cami must have borrowed the city’s eclectic and kaleidoscopic landscape, infusing ‘Water Take Me Away’ with a great deal of ethnic melodies and jazz-flavoured elegance.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the single, Eden Cami explains: “I wrote this song thinking about the complexity of fleeing—whether from war, oppression, or the weight of social conventions. Even after reaching physical safety, the emotional journey continues. As the lyrics took shape, I realised it also came from a deeply personal place, not fleeing a war, but a reality that didn’t allow me to be who I truly am.”
