Out now on Virgin Records
August 30, 2024 – Renowned German multi-platinum producer, songwriter, and artist Jonasu is back with his latest release, “Healing,” featuring the talented German-English singer Emily Roberts. Released through Virgin Records, this track masterfully combines an infectious, upbeat rhythm with heartfelt lyrics that delve into the bittersweet experience of heartbreak—whether with a partner or a friend—and the comfort that comes after.
“Healing” captivates with its irresistible beats and soulful melody, encouraging listeners to dance through their pain. It serves as a soundtrack for those moments when moving on feels both necessary and hopeful. As the lyrics echo, “I wish you healing, healing, healing. I hope you find love,” the song aims to lift spirits while resonating deeply with anyone who has loved and lost. Jonasu shared the inspiration behind the song, recalling a pivotal moment in the studio: “When Emily Roberts walked into the studio, she asked our co-writer, Anne Gudrun, ‘If you could have any superpower, which one would you choose?’ Anne replied, ‘Healing.’ This response took Emily back to memories of an old roommate who had once been a close friend but unfortunately turned into something of an enemy—someone she eventually had to remove from her life. Some people you simply have to let go and wish them nothing but the best. We hope this song brings healing to those who need it.”
Jonasu’s rise to fame has been nothing short of remarkable. He burst onto the global scene in 2021 with his hit single “Black Magic,” which dominated the UK charts and garnered over 500 million streams. Jonasu has since become a powerhouse in the Pop and Dance music world, collaborating with and remixing tracks for top artists like Tiësto and Clean Bandit, and performing at iconic venues like Creamfields and the O2. His journey reflects his undeniable talent and his ability to create music that moves people around the world.
Adding emotional depth to “Healing” is Emily Roberts, whose unique background and experiences enrich the song’s narrative. Emily has made a name for herself in the music industry, earning three gold plaques with her hit “Bittersweet Symphony” and collaborating with notable artists like Tom Grennan. After releasing two pop-focused EPs, Emily marks her triumphant return to dance music with “Healing,” signaling her continued evolution as an artist. Together, Jonasu and Emily Roberts have crafted a track that not only serves as a dance anthem but also as a heartfelt reflection on the complexities of broken relationships and the process of healing.
