AzureDé Opens Up About the Inspiration Behind Her New Single Light to Land

AzureDé has shared the story behind her latest single, Light to Land in an interview with IOL. She revealed that the song was inspired by the struggles of people. The new release contains themes of persistence and perseverance.

AzureDé explained that she had been paying  attention to the challenges happening across the world. The experience of those dealing with personal difficulties made her realise what people are going through.

“I wanted to put together something that spoke about not just wanting to be the change you want to see in the world, but being that change within yourself. Sometimes we’re looking for things outside ourselves that we actually have to find within,” AzureDé told IOL.

The singer said she wanted the song to encourage people to stop looking for change only in the outside world.  Her belief is that real transformation begins within each person. She explained that people search for answers elsewhere when they already have what is needed to overcome difficult situations. This is the message Light to Land hopes to pass.

“We all face seasons where life feels uncertain, painful or overwhelming. This song is a reminder to keep believing, keep moving forward, and trust that your light will eventually land exactly where it’s meant to.”
