Song Review/ Singer-Songwriter : Manuka’s ‘Antenna’
Manuka is a singer-songwriter and alt folk artist. She sings as if she is talking to herself. So beautifully simple and vulnerable. To listen to her song is to share a room with her, feel her inner landscapes. Her latest release is ‘Antenna’ , a song about listening to the small voice, the antenna, that warns you about a person you’re about to date. Predicting the patterns that will unravel and end up in heartbreak.
The song is sung with a sweet simplicity, laced with past melancholy and loss. Despite its softness, it has such a powerful call. Its melodious current and thoughtful lifts are so pleasing. The mind starts to slowly drift into memories and storytelling imagery. The guitar is a warm companion, flowing alongside, keeping the vocal journey company. It’s such an intimate track, so vulnerably presented that it makes you ache. Listen Now!
