I felt so alone until you entered my zone
Now it feels like I have a new home
Rosa Feodora, an up-and-coming German artist based in Dublin, has unleashed a brooding blend of goth and alternative rock with her new song, Walking Home Alone. From Osnabrück to Hamburg to Dublin, Walking Home Alone accompanied Rosa Feodora throughout her most defining and significant years of personal transformation. Feodora wrote the song in 2021, shot the music video in 2022, and recorded it in 2024. Such a prolonged process of developing the song witnessed her evolution as an artist.
In a world where solitude offers both solace and unease, Walking Home Alone delves into the profound loneliness of the night. Unacknowledged faces drift past, propelling one towards fleeting comforts. Yet within this isolation, a new presence emerges, offering a sense of belonging and transforming the experience into a newfound sense of home.
Rosa Feodora’s music resonates deeply in troubled, vulnerable moments. Determined to inspire self-awareness, Feodora bravely invites us to confront our fears and give voice to them, so we may all hear and understand our own struggles. Walking Home Alone reveals the universal experience of loneliness, frustration, and sadness. It reminds us that by finding strength and light within ourselves, we can support each other through the darkness, fostering connection and understanding. Feodora’s intense, resonant contralto, reminiscent of the power in Florence and the Machine, conveys the deep sorrow and angst of abandonment. The chorus, however, offers optimism; a light at the end of the tunnel.
“We’re all just walking each other home,” Feodora concludes.
