Singer Muki has released a new single titled "Missing You" (מתגעגע), marking his first musical collaboration with Idan Raichel. The song, released on Tuesday, is the first track from Muki's upcoming album, which also features Raichel's musical production and compositions. Muki wrote the lyrics for "Missing You," while Raichel composed the melody, arranged, and produced the music.
The song delves into the theme of longing for a deceased loved one and the struggle to live with the void left behind. Muki describes the feeling as "a longing that stays with us and doesn't disappear." The lyrics express how everyday life is filled with reminders of the person who is gone, with lines like "Today is another day without you, a void that cannot be filled. Everything reminds me of everything, everything reminds me of you."
The new album was created over a tumultuous three-year period in Muki's life, marked by the personal loss of his mother and the broader impact of the October 7th attacks and the subsequent war. The songs on the album explore themes of loss, questioning, and the search for meaning in the aftermath of these events. Muki stated that "Missing You" is a very personal song, but he believes its themes of love and enduring connection resonate universally, allowing listeners to find themselves in its narrative of missing someone they wish they could speak to one last time.
