MUMBAI: Afro-pop singer Wiyaala will premier live on TV her new song 'Angel' on The One Show hosted by Anita Erskine on Viasat 1 at5pm Ghanaian time.
The Upper West singer says she wrote 'Angel' at a time she was feeling very emotional about someone who had helped her. After making a demo of the song, her management sent it to Jeff Bova, a famous Grammy Award winning producer in Hollywood. This was what he had to say, “I enjoyed how the groove felt on 'Angel', but here's my reaction. It sounds like a song David Foster might demo in 90's, but then put aside because the chorus doesn't quite deliver all the way.”
Wiyaala says she was not discouraged and decided to include the song on her just released album 'Wiyaala' because she feels that the lyrical message in the song is something her fans will identify at Christmas time. The singer said, “When you are feeling low and your dreams seem beyond reach, that is just when God will send an angel to lift your spirit and give you strength to face the challenge.”
This Monday, Wiyaala's fans were asked to 'unlock' the song by tweeting about it at this location. Almost a hundred tweets went out in a matter of days and Angel is now unlocked and available to everyone for free.
