With The Song:
Let me burn
Maria Lumiere is a singer-songwriter of mixed heritage Danish and Guyanese.
Signed at just 15, she has released 2 solo albums, Maria ”My soul” & Maria Lumiere ”Oh so full of Promise”
and featured on multiple records including 2 songs on the Buddha bar compilations ”She will Never Learn” & ”Hold you back”
The song ”Let me burn” ( it can’t be undone ) dedicated to Gaza, is an alternative edit of an original song on ”Oh so full of Promise”
Soulbroken over Palestine and the horrific bombings, the video was created from multiple clips and then reversed.
Symbolic for a wish to undo the ongoing genocide we are still witnessing.
The song ”Let me burn” inspired a music video of bombed buildings in Gaza that I reversed.
Feeling helpless and understanding the ones we thought were meant to protect us have become the ones hurting us. Palestine is a crisis of humanity. and the damage can’t be undone. But we have only one option and that is to let is unite us. The oppressed against the oppressors. Our liberation is interconnected.
Song Title: Let me burn
Let me burn – Maria Lumiere
I realise I’m a fool for even trying
When you’re the one who started the fire
And let me burn, you let me burn
Let me burn, let me burn
Why you let me burn ?
Let me burn, why you let me burn ?
Let me burn
Let me burn
Let me burn
Let me burn
Let me burn
Let me burn
Let me burn
Let me burn……. you let me burn
