Keeping it slow, but certainly not as slow (and boring) as her Eurovision entry “Sama”, old-school Polish Eurovision entrant Justyna Steczkowska released the music video for “Terra” this past week. An ambient number with new age oozing out of it, the song is an artistic magnum opus.
“Terra” has no real sense of rhythm, and that only adds to the exotic essence. Simply put, it’s more of an abstract track than a ballad or a club smasher. We love it! While we love partying in the club with Alcazar tunes or crying over one of Zeljko’s masterpieces, we could find lots of uses for “Terra” (yoga class, a night drive, and laying under the stars being only three of them).
This has on-point vocals and a big buildup that we just adore! And let’s not forget the music video, a wonderous collection of shots focused on landscapes and Justyna.
“Terra” is not everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s very much worth a listen.

“Terra” – Justyna Steczkowska Lyrics
Jak modlitewny
mlynek wiruje.
Blekitne oko
w kosmicznej zupie.
Rodzimy sie
z kosci i krwi
Drobni jak pyl
w skali wszechrzeczy
I chcemy zyc
jak dlugo sie da
A los jesli zly
niech omija nas
Tkwimy w imadle
Obu biegunów
planety spietej
w talii równikiem
nim miniemy
jak mija wszystko
my – wedrujacy w czasie od eonów byt
Rodzimy sie
z kosci i krwi
Drobni jak pyl
w skali wszechrzeczy
I chcemy zyc
jak dlugo sie da
A los jesli zly
niech omija nas
Jestesmy tu
by zestarzec sie
w pielgrzymkach do miejsc
gdzie chowa sie sens
dobrzy i zli
sluga i pan
po prostu chc? zyc
jak dlugo sie da
Zyc
Zyc
Zyc
Po prostu zyc…
This is amazing, very Björk-esque, who also happens to be one of my favourite artists of all time.
I love her
she’s one of my fav artists, very versatile and non-commercial
