New Song: History (Audio Stream)
🕑 Added 2018-06-15 19:54:49 +0000 UTC Hello everyone!I am so excited to share my newest song off the album, "History," with you all. This song came out of nowhere and snuck onto the album at the last moment and I'm so happy it did :)
I decided it would be fun to switch it up and let this song stand on its own for a moment before the video comes out to give you all time to assign your own stories and meaning to it. Video will be coming at the end of the month!
Lyrics are below, audio stream above (though it's also available on Spotify, iTunes, etc!). Get cozy, sit back, get those headphones on, and take a listen! I hope you two have a nice time getting to know each other :)
Thank you all for allowing me the space in my life to create, the space to find new songs and then lose myself in a studio to bring them to life. I am so grateful!
Geckos and up - download the song here :)

HISTORY
That song reminds me of summers, of family, of backyards,
Of you and me
If I went back there
Straight back to the place where I wondered what we could be
I’d laugh
Who’d have thought? Who’d have thought
That song reminds me of Newhart, of 90s of petty, and heavy things
I still remember what life was like back then
Before I had learned to speak
I’d hide
Sing it out, sing it out
I felt it all
The kissing and fighting
I know the cost
I stayed home on New Year’s Eve
All in all
I’d rather be right here than
Falling off the pages of history
If I remind you of childhood, of memories, of times both bitter and sweet
Let’s take that feeling right here to this moment
And sew it into the seams
My love
Hold it all, hold it all
I felt it all
The kissing and fighting
I know the cost
I stayed home on New Year’s Eve
All in all
I’d rather be right here than
Falling off the pages of history

Hi Kina, will there here VIP tickets/upgrades for your Amsterdam show?
Just read a mean comment on YouTube about your songs sounding all the same. I thumbed it down. Please don't let the hate get to you! Every Patreon on here and those who have said nice things is all stronger than that hateful rant. You're songs are beautiful, inspiring, and soothing. Full of love that you created and have shared to all of us. History sounds like an important song for you and your sisters. That's all that matters! ❤️❤️❤️
Excellent. My order is in. I'll be stalking my mailbox. Much love and God bless.
The song is a gem. Just yesterday I hung out with a group of friends that hadn't been together in many years. Emotions are stirred up and we spent a couple days wrapped in nostalgia of when were always together. This compliments this weekend perfectly and I can't wait to share the song with them when when you make the song public.
So proud to be here for the debut of this creation! ❤️
thank you!
I suddenly felt a joy,a happiness i experienced when i was a kid. Thank u a lot Kina :)
I love it Kina. Very beautiful song. I love the mixing of the background vocals on this.
sameeeee
The song is so so good - this entire album is freaking amazing!! Kina is so special and unique, what a gift!!
I'd really like to get the CD, but the shipping price is too high 🤕

Sigh. I'll have to listen to this song again later: I still have an "In the Waiting" brain virus.
The melodies are just so wonderfully done! This song brought me down "memory lane" after listening a few times. Both sad and happy memories, but in a beautifully evoked way through your music. Thank you for this and for sharing the lyrics too! :D
