Award-winning songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and humanitarian Shy-Anne Hovorka has just released her new single “Fly Away,” an incredible, soul-stirring journey through loss, remembering, and healing. Composed in memory of a friend, this poem’s drama captures the raw beauty of grief, showing that there is strength in letting go. “Fly Away” is a whispered goodbye on the wind. Hovorka’s voice is raw, raspy, and tender as it floats through the hour, coiling into narrative knots that are both universal and personally devastatingly real.
The arrangement is delicate but powerful, light piano lines and airy harmonies wrap around her voice like a supportive hug, mirroring the silent love between friends, those in souls whose bonds extend beyond timelines and dimensions. The visual that comes with the song enhances its emotional pull, evokes bittersweet memories, and reflects the theme of letting go. It’s a visual reflection of the song’s core, one that admits pain even while celebrating the beauty of connection.
Hovorka has always been admired for her honesty and compassion, and “Fly Away” could be one of her most personal statements to date. It’s more than just a tribute to one soul lost, but it’s a balm for anyone who has had to say goodbye too soon. In “Fly Away,” Shy-Anne doesn’t just sing about loss, but she turns it into light. This song is a reminder that love never really dies, and in Death’s case, becomes the wind beneath your wings.
