about

Rising artist Holysseus Fly returns with a stirring new single, ‘Out Of This World’, released the 8th of March via Severn Songs, and announces forthcoming UK tour support slot for Nick Mulvey.

Written and produced in her home studio, ‘Out Of This World’ sees Holysseus Fly raise the bar to thrilling levels for her most expansive sound yet.

"In Out of This World I am imagining building my life like I’m building a house. I wrote and produced the song at home and shot the artwork there too. It’s a manifestation of hope for the future. To take myself, my family and community out of this world and up into the sky. It even features a sample I took of jingling my house keys.

The opening line, “Your window is stuck in its frame”, outlines how I was seeing things through a negative perspective. I was at home looking out at the world feeling deflated. The window in your home literally frames how you see the world.

“I’ll build them up”, is me reinforcing the walls of my house, laying the foundations for my future. I am determined to break through the glass ceiling. “The blue” is to me the unknown that lies ahead, whatever that is, the uncertainty of it all that I am willing to ride out to go out of this world. That’s what this song is about."

lyrics

Your window is stuck in it’s frame
I’m outside you can’t hear me call your name

I’ll sleep it off
I’ll sleep it off
Just sleep it off
I’ll sleep it off

In our house you know
That I’m hoping to go
With you
Out of this world
The blue the blue

They built the roof out of glass
Crumbling walls made with metal parts

I’ll build them up
I’ll build them up
We’ll build them up
We’ll build them up

In our house you know
That I’m hoping to go
With you
Out of this world
The blue the blue

In our house you know
That I’m hoping to go
With you
Out of this world
The blue the blue

The blue
The blue
The blue
The blue
Blue
The blue
The blue
The blue
The blue
The blue
