Aurelia turns “sometimes i wish” into a haunting, euphoric, and deeply healing electronic pop sanctuary.



Aurelia’s “sometimes i wish” opens with a brilliantly delivered vocal display that gently captivates and leaves you in complete stillness with Aurelia’s compelling performance.


An open, soft synth with gently delivered harmony vocals sets the tone for an emotionally vulnerable performance that feels like a haunting reveal of yearning, but also pain.

Flowing like a beautiful wind, Aurelia’s vocals are smooth and powerful. The bright but solemn sound keeps you fixated. You are so intrigued by this unique and mesmerizing display that the meaning becomes like a treasure you are dying to find.


“Sometimes i wish it was you / in the silence of my room”

And here a story of love, confusion, and a desire to be free begins to unfold.


What is so captivating is the combination of Aurelia’s magnificent performance and the supporting music. The music feels despondent and purgatorial. Its lingering sound floats and supports Aurelia’s vocals with immense intensity.


Using their extraordinary vocal talents almost like a weapon of healing, Aurelia’s refrain of wishing it was you feels like a relief and a moment of finally finding who they are and who they should share their most important and intimate moments with. This striking and brilliant display feels like a reckoning, and with their tone and ability to develop the story with their sound, it’s truly euphoric.



Aurelia delivers “sometimes i wish” with breathtaking vocal control, immense emotional weight, and a singular artistic vision that feels intimate, powerful, and unforgettable.



When I learned this is the artist’s self-authored and self-created work, I was even more amazed. The entire world built from her pain and self-realizations comes together like a grand cinematic experience. Slowly but powerfully, each chapter of her emotions is built and then deconstructed, and I was in the front row to experience it. I absolutely loved this and felt an incredible sense of elation as, from the broken pieces of a past life, Aurelia converts it all into a sanctuary. It's such a powerful and inspiring story that truly resonates with us all.


“sometimes i wish” by Aurelia is a stunning, unforgettable song that has the power to become a source of healing for millions who feel the same way.
