Some songs arrive like a confession you’ve been waiting to make, and “Falling” is one of those. Released on July 2025, Ananya’s latest single spins the universal ache of the right person, wrong time into a bedroom pop anthem that’s as danceable as it is devastating. After teasing it during a Glamour South Africa livestream, the London-based artist finally delivers the track her fans have been longing for—an upbeat melody laced with vulnerability and a pulsing emotional core.
From the opening bars, “Falling” disarms with its breezy tone, even as it dives into the turmoil of longing for someone you know you shouldn’t. Lyrics like “I know I shouldn’t be texting you” and “I know I try, but what’s the use?” paint the sharp edges of temptation and regret. “This song came from a time where I was trying to hide how I really felt, caught in the chaos of falling for someone who wasn’t ready,” Ananya shares. Co-written by the artist and produced by Patch Boshell, the track adds a hypnotic, danceable layer to its introspective heart—an interplay that mirrors the push and pull of concealed emotions.
While her music feels instantly relatable, Ananya’s story makes it even more compelling. Born and raised in Zimbabwe, she carries the creative ethos of her childhood into everything she does: “At home, we weren’t allowed to say ‘boring,’ so creativity became second nature.” That fearless spirit led her from Parsons School of Design in New York City to a flourishing music career in London, and even inspired her to co-create the Nani Wellness Project, providing free virtual therapy sessions for Zimbabweans. For Ananya, art and empathy are inseparable.
Following the success of her single “Long Jump”—praised by outlets like EARMILK, VOXWAVE Magazine, and NXTNOW Music—“Falling” feels like a defining moment. It’s lighthearted and aching all at once, wrapping vulnerability in a shimmering pop package. A track that asks: what do you do when your heart outruns your head?
“Falling” is streaming now on all major platforms. Tap into the conversation and keep up with Ananya on Instagram @ananyamakesmusic, TikTok @ananyamakesmusic, and at AnanyaMakesMusic.com—because if this single is any indication, her next chapter will be just as fearless.
