Anastasia Solay, a name synonymous with emotional depth and musical diversity, recently opened up about her latest hit, “Candlelight,” painting a vivid picture of her artistic journey. 

Discussing the music video for “Candlelight,” Solay describes an evocative scene set in an old cafe, where a mysterious figure captures the essence of the song. This setting, along with the nuanced portrayal of each character, was crucial in manifesting the song’s dual themes of memory and self-discovery. 

Solay’s songwriting process is as spontaneous as it is heartfelt. The lyrics of “Candlelight,” borne out of improvisation, are a reflection of her ability to translate raw emotions and memories into soul-stirring melodies.
