We recently had the opportunity to check out the new single “Wish You Stayed “ from emerging pop singer Julia Raye . You can listen to “Wish You Stayed” Here

“Wish You Stayed” was produced by Bret “Epic” Mazur—known for his work with Crazy Town, Prince, and the Black Eyed Peas—the track follows in the footsteps of her recent hits, “Expectations” and “Give You Up.”

With its tender guitar melody and Julia’s signature soul-stirring vocals, “Wish You Stayed” captures the quiet ache of losing a relationship that once felt perfect. Overflowing with emotional depth, the lyrics tap into those raw moments of reflection when you’re left questioning how everything unraveled.

I wrote this song in the midst of mourning a relationship, so I took inspiration from all of the texts I sent to friends and the little notes I’d written down on my phone,” Julia says. “Ultimately, it’s about cherishing and reflecting on the good moments, even when you know it’s time to let go.”

Soulful,powerful, honest and authentic, “Wish You Stayed “ is Julia Raye at her absolute best .
