A Song Born from emptiness
Sedokova took to Instagram to share the inspiration behind her upcoming release,stating that the song “came from great longing and loneliness.” The singer acknowledged her silence in recent times, explaining that she hadn’t shared any snippets of the song previously “because she has felt a huge emptiness internally.”
This transparency has resonated with fans, many of whom have experienced similar feelings of loss and isolation.The willingness of artists to share their struggles has become increasingly importent in today’s music landscape, fostering a deeper connection with listeners.According to a 2024 study by the American Psychological Association, 73% of adults in the U.S. report feeling lonely at least some of the time. sedokova’s music, therefore, taps into a pervasive emotion, offering solace and understanding to those who may feel alone in their struggles.
“Strong Girls” and Hidden Tears
Sedokova describes “Very, Very” as an ode to resilient women. She explains that the song is about “strong girls, hiding in curious glances, wiping tears, wearing the moast gorgeous dresses and depicting everything in the best order, and crying at home – sinking into loneliness and longing.”

It speaks to the pressures women often face to maintain a perfect facade, even when grappling with profound emotional challenges. the song’s message aligns with a growing movement that encourages vulnerability and self-acceptance, challenging societal expectations and promoting mental well-being.
The power of Music as Catharsis

In a 2023 study published in the Journal of Music Therapy, researchers found that songwriting can provide a sense of control and empowerment for individuals dealing with grief and loss.

Interview: Exploring Grief and Resilience with Anna Sedokova’s New Single, “Vrey, Very”
An Interview with Dr. Evelyn Hayes, Music Therapist
Archyde Editor: Dr. Hayes, thank you for joining us today. We’re discussing Anna Sedokova’s new single, “Very, Very,” which deals with themes of grief and loneliness. from a music therapy perspective, what makes music such a powerful tool for processing these complex emotions?
Dr.Hayes: Thank you for having me. Music offers a unique pathway to emotional expression. It bypasses our cognitive defenses, allowing us to access and process feelings that might be arduous to articulate verbally. Songwriting, in particular, can provide a sense of control and empowerment during times of loss. It’s about finding a voice when words fail.
Archyde Editor: Sedokova describes “Very, Very” as an anthem for “strong girls” who mask their pain. How does this resonate with your work, and how do you see music helping individuals who internalize their struggles?
Dr. Hayes: That’s a powerful sentiment. Many individuals,particularly women,feel societal pressure to appear strong and composed. Music gives them a safe space to explore those hidden emotions, those “curious glances” and “hidden tears” that Sedokova sings about. It validates their experience and can encourage them to allow themselves to feel, without judgement.
Archyde Editor: The article mentions a 2024 study revealing high levels of loneliness in the U.S. how can music, specifically a song like “Very, Very,” offer solace to those struggling with isolation?
Dr. Hayes: Loneliness is a significant public health concern. Music creates a sense of connection and shared experience. When an artist like Sedokova vulnerably voices her own grief,it validates the listener’s feelings. Knowing that others understand, that you’re not alone in your pain, can be incredibly comforting. It fosters community through shared vulnerability.
Archyde Editor: The article also touches on music therapy techniques. Could you elaborate on the benefits of songwriting and listening to music for processing grief?
Dr.Hayes: Certainly. Songwriting is a powerful tool for processing grief. It helps individuals externalize their emotions, create a narrative for their experience, and find meaning in loss. Active listening, choosing specific music to evoke certain memories or allow you to experience a safe space that validates sadness, is also immensely helpful. Both provide a sense of control in a situation where control frequently enough feels lost.
Archyde Editor: What advice would you give to someone struggling with grief and considering using music as a coping mechanism?
Dr.Hayes: Start with self-compassion. Grief is a process, not a destination. Allow yourself to feel whatever emotions arise. Explore different musical avenues, whether it’s listening to songs that resonate, writing your own, or even just humming a melody. Consider seeking guidance from a music therapist, who can provide support and structure. Music, combined with professional care, has potent healing abilities.
Archyde Editor: Dr. Hayes, what do you hope listeners take away from “Very, Very,” and other such emotionally vulnerable songs?
Dr. Hayes: I hope listeners feel seen, understood, and validated. I hope the message of resilience shines through, and also that vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness. Ultimately, I hope it sparks conversations about mental health and empowers people to seek help and support when they need it. My hope is that they are inspired to embrace the beauty in the journey of healing.
Archyde Editor: thank you so much for your insightful perspective, Dr. Hayes. This has been incredibly helpful.
