1. Singer from Switzerland.
2. Croat… Read Full Bio ↴Kisha stands for three things:
1. Singer from Switzerland.
2. Croatian electro/indie/ethno outfit, founded in 1999 in Makarska, Croatia. (Kisha - Croatian for Rain)
3. Finnish pop group, founded in 2006.
------------------------------------
1. Seeing Kisha in her Hippie outfit with her sun-bleached hair and eyes as green as the sea, you'd think she just came back from a drive through the Californian desert - actually, Kisha comes from Switzerland.
Equally deceptive is her seemingly shy manner when, in fact, she's very self-confident and full of energy. However, she finds it easier to express her feelings through her singing - "Music gives me the opportunity to express what I really feel" - so in her single, 'Why ? (I'm Too Shy)' she recounts a missed opportunity of a few years ago which she vows will never happen again.
Kisha's enormous potential was spotted two years ago by Berlin music publisher, Diana Music & Vision while she was working part-time in a packing factory to finance her singing lessons. Kisha began recording a few songs with the producers of Toneteam and began to develop her own style in the process.
Her debut single, Why ?, was released in June 1998 and this will be followed by a twelve-track album in the Autumn. "I still can't believe this is all happening to me. I've always had problems opening my mouth and saying exactly what I want but I've finally found the courage to do so," Kisha explains enthusiastically, adding, "To me, making music means living. Music offers me the chance to conquer my inner conflicts and express how I really feel."
It is fascinating to hear Kisha, whose powerful voice belies her tiny frame. Guitars, upbeat rhythms and a haunting melody make 'Why ?' a surefire hit and the ideal way to launch Kisha onto the pop stage, where she is destined to win many fans. Her shyness gives her a unique presence and, unlike so many other pop artists, she radiates authenticity but it is tremendous determination that's going to put her where she's always dreamed of being - and that's at the top.
Why?
Kisha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
EVERYTIME I LOOK AT YOU
GOT A FEELING DEEP AND TRUE
UH--- I CANґґT STAND IT ANY LONGER
I WONDER IF YOU FEEL THE SAME
THIS FEELING IN MY HEART IS GETTINґSTRONGER
HOW CAN I GET CLOSE TO YOU
I LONG FOR YOU CAUSE YOU ARE MI DESIRE
I WANNA MAKE A DREAM COME TRUE
THIS DREAM ABOUT ME AND YOU
HOW--- CAN I EVER LIGHT YOUR FIRE
CHORUS
WHY
WHY I AM TO SHY
TO TELL YOU THAT I LIKE YOU
VERSE 2
I GOT TO MAKE YOU LOOK AT ME
I GOT TO MAKE YOU TALK TO ME
I GOT TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND
I GOT TO MAKE YOU HOLD MY HAND
I GOTTA MAKE YOU CATCH MY SMILE
TALK TO YOU FOR A LITTLE WHILE
I GOTTA TAKE YOUR HEART AWAY
I WISH I'LL FIND THE WAY
PLEASE TELL ME
CHORUS
TELL ME WHY TELL ME WHY
TELL ME WHY I AM TOO SHY
WHY I AM TOO SHY TO SAY I LIKE YOU
TELL ME WHY TELL ME WHY
TELL ME WHY I AM TOO SHY
WHY I AM TOO SHY TO SAY I DO
REPEAT CHORUS
The song "Why?" by Kisha is a heartfelt expression of a person's longing for someone else. The verses express the singer's intense feelings for the person they are addressing, and how they cannot stand to be without them any longer. The singer is unsure if the other person feels the same way, but they can feel their own feelings growing stronger every day. They long to make their dream of being with this person come true, but are struggling to find a way to get closer to them.
The chorus of the song is a plea for understanding from the other person. The singer is too shy to confess their feelings directly, and they are begging for the other person to somehow understand how they feel. They want to know why they are too shy to express their feelings, and why they cannot just come out and say that they like the other person. It is a heartfelt cry of longing and desperation, expressing the difficulty of communication and vulnerability when it comes to love.
Overall, "Why?" is a relatable expression of the struggle to express one's feelings in a romantic situation, and the desire to be with someone who seems unattainable.
