Sri Lankan singer-songwriter Dinesh Dhananjaya is making waves in the music industry with his powerful upcoming release, “Stop Shooting Butterflies.” GrooveNexus is releasing the song on 28th June. The track has been pictured under his creative direction. It aims to celebrate the artistic spirit while shedding light on the challenges faced by artists in society today.
The Title of the Song:
The metaphorical title of the song holds deep significance, representing the poetic license artists possess to create something extraordinary. It also serves as a poignant reminder of the conflicts and harsh criticisms artists often endure due to their innovative works.
Dhananjaya draws inspiration from the trials of prominent figures like Salman Rushdie, whose novel “Satanic Verses” stirred controversy and resulted in severe threats against him. Also, “Stop Shooting Butterflies” urges listeners to appreciate the vibrancy and beauty artists bring to the world, akin to butterflies’ vivid colours and resplendence. Also, it emphasizes the importance of allowing creative minds to soar freely, unhindered by judgment or suppression.
Says the Creator:
“Artists are a special breed of people. They fly high with their imagination, transcending earthly boundaries and landing on clouds. From this elevated perspective, they bestow upon us their creative thoughts, which rain down magically as flower petals and fragrant confetti. Let us cherish and support this beautiful transformation of ideas from the artists’ imaginations.”
