Sweet Tea

The sweet smell of mint tea and roasted meat in the backyard - it's like pressing the “rewind” button, and images from the past spill into your memory like old VHS recordings. Laughter on the porch, a controversial neighborly incident, your grandmother's smile, which you can no longer ask about... There is no pathos or glamour in this stream of memories - just simple life, where a limousine sits next to a burnt stove, and the greatest lessons come not from books, but from family gatherings.

The music gently preserves this feeling: a little sad, a little festive, with that warm irony that comes when you realize that everything of value was already close at hand. All that remains is to live again, love again, and collect more little “we were there” moments.
