Stay

Stay, touches a heart-rending personal note with Sandra, who wrote the lyrics in collaboration with Eddy Malone and Alex. “Unfortunately it talks about something that, I think, will never disappear and is bullying. “I suffered from that a lot at school and so did my older brother. Kids are mean ... they follow others and since they don’t want to be bullied ones, they bully. No matter how much you tell a child to be nice to others, ‘nature’ follows its course and both parties hopefully learn and grow from it. “So this song doesn’t tell kids ‘not to bully’ ... it urges the bullied children to hang on in there and stay strong, that something better will be coming along! “From my experience, it made me stronger and I am now a recording artist and international singer; how better can it get? In fact, a lot of well-known recording artists were also bullied in their younger years – some of my inspirations, for example, such as Christina Aguilera, Eminem, Lady Gaga and Ed Sheeran all suffered.”
