Song Meaning of “Himalaya – Live in Berlin 2012” by Jennifer Rostock
The song ‘Himalaya’ by Jennifer Rostock is a melancholic rock song about personal struggles. The lyrics speak of mountains that the narrator feels they have to climb, and loneliness that has become their companion. It is a song about perseverance, but also about hope. The mountain in the chorus is a metaphor, perhaps for an obstacle in life that the narrator feels they have to overcome. The narrator is willing to fight and continue striving despite the loneliness that they feel.
At the same time, the Live in Berlin 2012 version of the song gives it an uplifting tone, a sense of joy without becomng overbearing. The instruments that appear in the chorus are a reminder that even in dark times, joy and beauty can still be found. The narrator finds strength and hope in moments of despair and is reminded of the preciousness of life. This version of the song speaks to the idea that even in difficult times, hope and joy can be discovered.
