Aptly titled, ‘Rain (overcoming anxiety)’ is a pretty self-explanatory record. Drenched in folk-like aural tenderness, the song carries all the qualities that make NAVINA the great songwriter and producer she is. Meaningful, reflective lyricism, cinematic textures, and an overall heartwarming character: this is a soothing piece, a relatable, cathartic listening experience that comes to the rescue on a gloomy, chaotic day. For that, we would like to thank NAVINA: her artistry is a gift to humanity. She’s not chasing trends or appealing to a proven formula, instead focusing on writing material that serves a purpose.
That’s a win in our books; after all, what is art if not a way to reach out and connect with fellow human beings? With ‘Rain’, the London-based creative focuses on what it means to overcome anxiety, truly speaking from a place of authenticity and honesty. In a world that’s increasingly toxic and divisive, a song like ‘Rain’ becomes almost a necessity. NAVINA’s luscious and elegant vocals are the cherry on the cake.
Delving deeper into the introspective ethos that propels the single, NAVINA explains: “This song came from a place of surrender. In the chaos of anxiety, I found that instead of fighting, there is peace in letting go, trusting in something greater than myself. It’s a song about weathering the storm and realising you’re never truly alone. When the sea of anxiousness is overwhelming, trust in something outside of myself shows that the sea is just made up of the rain, and anxiety can be overcome.”
