Haiku Reviews
Not every song needs an essay.
Some arrive, linger, and leave an impression you can’t quite explain. These haikus are snapshots of that feeling, capturing the essence of a track in seventeen syllables. Submit a track.
Soraia – “La Belgique”
Sneering through the verse
guitar screams with angel wings
a mother shines through
St. Catherine's Child – “Fly Me to the Moon”
Moonlit vocals drift
old romance dressed in new clothes
timeless beauty stays
Kook Joey – “Puppy Love”
Vintage colors glow
memory bends into dreams
love blurs at the edge
Night Talks – “People Pleaser”
Funky bass hits hard
earworm chorus won’t let go
we keep replaying
Sasha & the Bear – “Serial Pleaser”
Hypnotic pulse loops
addicted to feeling good
never satisfied
Russell Jamie Johnson – “Belle of Brighton”
Bare guitar, slow air
we speak like it’s already over
learning to let go
Bright synths bloom in loops
October waits in the wings
smiling through the ache
Moxy The Band – “The Feeling of Letting Go”
Synth waves pull me back
forgotten childhood echoes
shine through neon haze
meelu - “candlelight”
Grief learns how to dance
candlelight against the dark
nothing stands still here
Soft echoes drift wide
breath and light mend quiet wounds
stars hum healing slow
Justin Sconza - “Native Birds of Guam”
Neon nights ignite
lost birds echo through the noise
hooks refuse to fade
Soft strings trace the past
dusty roses drift through rain
lost light still lingers
Devlin & The Harm - “No Havana”
Grit hums through the wire
raw voices crash then rise again
dust and embers burn
