February 10th, 2009 - Fly Away single is released!!! posted 02/2009
Deluxe Recordings launches Saga Bloom's first official single release from her album Enlightenment - Fly Away, a production by Saga Bloom and WaterlandMusic's Joachim Vermeulen Windsant. It is a mystical electro-pop track made out of lyrical poetry and enchanting hook from an ancient Finnish folk song (Saamen Neito). The lyrics describe emotions of being lost and feeling despair from which you can "fly away" by having comfort in music. Following the theme from Saga's album Enlightenment Fly Away speaks about finding inner peace by means of music.
The single release is also accompanied by an extended play (EP) containing a remaster of the radio edit and two remixes, set for a release February 27th 2009. Producer Joa-G created a commercial radio friendly dance pop remix, followed by a massive club banger refix by DJ/Producer Chew Fu.
The single and the EP are now available on all major download stores!

Saga took the last name from her great-grand-father – Bloom. Representing now with a true Finnish name with ancient roots, she feels this fits her profile better than the previous affiliate Deluxe. “It was meant for something fun, for the single release of “Like a Queen”, Saga says. “When you think of Star Wars Saga Deluxe Edition, you get the right picture!. So, from this perspective it was ok for the single release, but the album is a serious statement and it should reflect to me as an artist and as an individual person. As Enlightenment represents me from a fully grown up perspective it is only fitting to present it with the name Bloom which refers to a new beginning. As here I am – on a new beginning of a new path!”
