Seda (song)

"Seda" is a song by Filipino rock band Rivermaya, released in 2000 as part of their fourth studio album, Free. The song is notable for its introspective lyrics and melodic arrangement, departing slightly from the band's earlier, more aggressive rock sound.

The title "Seda," meaning "silk" in Filipino, is a metaphorical reference to the delicate and fragile nature of relationships and personal experiences. Lyrically, the song explores themes of reflection, acceptance, and moving on from past hurts. It's often interpreted as a contemplation on lost love and the bittersweet process of finding peace.

"Seda" was a popular single for Rivermaya, achieving significant radio airplay and contributing to the commercial success of the Free album. It remains a fan favorite and is considered one of the band's signature songs from the late 1990s/early 2000s era. The song showcases Rico Blanco's songwriting and vocal performance, which are central to Rivermaya's distinctive sound.
