Featured Song:
On “Origami” Erella sings about making a paper flower for a loved one, a metaphor for the singer's feelings, which are written on the petals of the flower. “I made a paper flower / To warm your misty heart / I slipped in some golden petals / To illuminate your worn soul / If I could / I would tell you the words / If you wanted / I would throw the paper flower into the water / Without artifice, and without pride.”
