San Jose based artist, Someya just released her latest track “You Saved Me.”  The alt-pop artist not really shows off herv vocals, but her ability to write.  “You Saved Me” is not a ballad, but more of an exaltation—a hymn even.  The song starts off “Eventually they’ll learn the truth,” which sounds as if it’s about to a diss track to a former lover.  Quite the opposite however.  Someya’s voice borders on creepy – yet beautiful – as she proclaims, “When the night grows cold, I know you’re always there, I know you’ll always care–you are my prayer,” and at times “You Saved Me” feels like a hungry obsession.  On “You Saved Me” Someya really shows us her ability to be diverse in her writing and her vocals.  She takes lyrics that are meant to be happy making them feel daunting and serious.

Keep up with Someya here.
