"Is It You" is the first single from Yumi Ito's new album "Ysla" and deals with a broken relationship. It brings up the associated feelings of guilt in view of possible injuries, as well as self-confrontation and self-forgiveness. These two contrasts also meet on a musical level: after an opening full of longing, featuring a striking cello figure, halfway through the song it shifts into a driving groove, driven by Ito's piano playing, who for the first time has recorded all the piano parts on an album herself. All these elements make it clear that nothing is eternal, as much as it may seem so - which is precisely why it is a powerful realization of the continuously new.
