With so many fly-by-night hooks and over-polished perfection, Enri Costa has something beautifully unique with "DIM THE LIGHTS." This is a moment, a slow-burning confessional that doesn't shy away from pain but never forgets the light waiting on the other side. But above all, "DIM THE LIGHTS" reminds us that openness is a strength. In Enri Costa's experience, it also makes music that sounds like it was written for slow drives, rainy nights, and hearts in need of catching.
Based on autobiographical experience, "DIM THE LIGHTS" is the type of song that doesn't demand but earns your attention. Some of his lyrics are achingly honest. Costa's story is interlaced with soulful melodies. Every note feels lived-in, every word strategically placed, as if ripped directly from a handwritten journal resting open by a windowsill.
Costa's voice is subdued yet magnetic, and if you believed in sincerity, none of this was necessary. And this song will feel like a trusted friend if anyone has ever attempted to heal while clinging to the beauty that once was. "DIM THE LIGHTS" isn't just a gas station single to blow by; it is narrative-driven music at its most basic and candid. If you're looking for something real, "DIM THE CITY" will meet you where you are.
A reflective glow runs throughout the track as if emanating from a dimly lit room after a long day. Yet, it never wallows but exhales hope through the cracks, the fortitude left after heartbreak. This emotional duality of pain cradled gently in one hand and hope in the other gives "DIM THE LIGHTS" its muted potency. For lovers of honest storytelling, soulful melodies, and music with real emotional depth, Enri Costa is an artist who keeps an eye on and an ear on.
