New single “Falling” by Ananya turns emotional conflict into a catchy, heartfelt pop moment.
Ananya’s latest single “Falling” is out now, and it’s a bright, rhythmic track with a heavy emotional pulse underneath. The Zimbabwean artist, currently based in London, continues her ascent with this emotionally complex but accessible release.
The song explores the inner conflict of feeling something too deeply at the wrong time — a familiar yet difficult experience. “It’s about timing, restraint, and the quiet ache that comes with unspoken feelings,” Ananya shares. “It’s for anyone who’s ever felt too much and said too little. I hope it feels like dancing through your own emotional chaos.”
“Falling” was first performed during a Glamour Magazine South Africa livestream in the pandemic era, where it struck a surprising chord with viewers. “I had no idea how many people would connect with it,” Ananya says. “The biggest challenge was keeping that rawness in the final version.” 
Musically, the track leans into sleek pop production with undercurrents of longing, showcasing Ananya’s knack for marrying lyrical vulnerability with rhythmic clarity. It represents another step forward in her sonic evolution, where groove and introspection meet.
Her previous EP i woke up one night was a critical turning point, surpassing 1 million streams and featuring standout tracks like “gone (forever)” and “i feel so new.” With “Falling,” she returns with a single that’s both personal and universal — a cathartic anthem for anyone who’s ever questioned their timing in love.
