Okay, here we go, let’s talk about Adriana Spuria’s “Away,” because sometimes a song lands not like a stone, but more like a strangely shaped, resonant pebble you find in a forgotten corner of your pocket.

It starts, well, I mean, not starts in the way a rocket launches. It’s softer than that, all gentle hums and guitar twangs, before Adriana’s voice drifts in, light as dandelion fluff on a breezy day. And then you get it – the ‘take me away’ plea. It’s repeated, sure, like a skipping record, but each time, it resonates a little differently. Maybe it’s about escaping bad leftovers from yesterday’s thoughts or perhaps a deep-seated urge to simply step outside one’s self. Like those weird moments when you are trying to find something in the fridge, but instead, you start organizing everything.

This single isn’t a story, per se; it’s more a feeling, an almost electric hum you get from standing too close to something… something powerful. A connection that’s both a comfort and a wild, untamed thing. Gae Capitano, Corrado Salemi, Biagio Martello, and Giovanni Maucieri provide the sonic scaffolding here; their work, while clearly important, feels less like individual building blocks, more like a shared landscape. One you are urged to go explore. Maybe I should have taken my hiking shoes for this, I mean, it was this powerful.

It’s got that satisfying blend of acoustic and electronics, with rock undertones—like putting on a favorite worn-in jacket you haven’t touched since last season. The vocals ride this wave like a tiny boat, at times feeling a bit like being on one of those rides at the fair, the ones that spin you ’round and around. There’s a definite pull to be had, a beckoning to the ‘away’ they are describing. What exactly is that place? Maybe it’s somewhere within each of us, waiting to be discovered.

Ultimately, “Away” doesn’t offer answers; it asks a better question: Where will you go? And perhaps more importantly, with whom?
