Ciaran McAuley & Christina Novelli Team Up for “Say Something”

If “Say Something” sounds familiar, well there’s nothing wrong with your memory! Its original version is now pushing 700 million YouTube views, having come to prominence through several reality music shows, while also putting a fair old dent in the global music charts. Notably, it also arrived a decade back, right around the time Christina Novelli was first embarking on her career.

In conversation, Ciaran and Christina chanced upon the subject of “Say Something”, which immediately opened up the most organic of collaborative opportunities. Banding together, they’ve converted A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera’s track into something that not only emotionally storms the heart and mind but also the clubfloor.

Movingly relatable, “Say Something”s song reflects on one of life’s “we’ve all been there” moments. Christina sings from the perspective of someone struggling to justify keeping a relationship alive, while oh so slowly coming around to the painful acceptance that it may be beyond saving.

“Anywhere I would have followed you”, she asserts before placing vulnerable heart-on-sleeve with “I’ll be the one … if you want me to”, while Ciaran picks out each expressive twist with melodic shimmer and chime. Latterly over his cascading piano notes, Christina voices what we’re all thinking: “I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you”/ “you’re the one that I love, but I’m saying goodbye.” “Say Something” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
