in an album full of questions about work, purpose and adulthood.... this is the love song. 💙
 
"michä (hilltop)" is about michael and a relationship that was very real in the moment, even if we didn’t know where it was going. we liked each other, we had beautiful memories together, and for a while enjoying the present was enough.
 
but there was always uncertainty behind it. the mountains and clouds became a metaphor for that.... i could see where i wanted the relationship to go, but i didn’t know if we would ever reach the top. at the time, i genuinely didn’t know if our love would survive, which is why the song ends with the simplest question: i love you.... and you, do you love me?
 
originally shared only with friends and family on january 4, 2017, this song was officially released under CANTIBEALL years later as part of the surprise release of "2016, life".

5. michä (hilltop)
 
cuz' if you care about me, you got me captivated
see my love from a hilltop
cuz' if you ever doubt me you got me captivated
see my love from a hilltop
 
look at the clouds in the mountains
the day we went to that lake
it was our very first date
and then we fell in love
 
look at the clouds in the mountains
they block the visions of all the tops
like life hides the secret
why am i here for?
 
my call late at night
my call during sunrise
my call is to check if you're fine
 
my call yesterday
my call on rainy days
my call is to cheer up your day
 
cuz' if you care about me, you got me captivated
see my love from a hilltop
cuz' if you ever doubt me you got me captivated
see my love from a hilltop
 
look at the clouds in the mountains
they hide the tops that i want to seek
like life covers the mystery
will i get to the peak?
 
my call late at night
my call during sunrise
my call is to check if you're fine
 
my call yesterday
my call on rainy days
my call is to cheer up your day
 
cuz' if you care about me, you got me captivated
see my love from a hilltop
cuz' if you ever doubt me you got me captivated
see my love from a hilltop
 
i love you, and you, do you love me?
