Michellar returns with a powerful statement and a song that celebrates a year of incredible music. The songwriter and musician dropped her latest single Never Say Sorry, a song you won’t be forgetting anytime soon. She continues to raise her own bar and this single perfectly bottles her gift for delivering beautiful music universal enough to resonate with anyone who’s navigated the complicated territory of love.
This song stands as a testament to Michellar’s dedication to songwriting and her continuous growth as a musician. From her early singles like “Dreaming” and “Let’s Go Move Around!” to this new release, she has explored different sounds and emotional perspectives with honesty and grace.
The recording process itself reflects her commitment to quality and collaboration. The demo was recorded in San Francisco, while Tobias Wilson’s production work took place across the ocean in the UK, highlighting the thoughtful care behind every note and lyric.
Never say sorry was inspired by a deeply personal journey—a time when she left a relationship and wrestled with feelings of doubt and longing for something real and sincere. Her reflection on Love is genuine and honest: the struggle of knowing when to hold on and when to let go, and the realization that true love, if meant to be, always finds a way back. This emotional honesty forms the core of the song’s narrative, wrapping listeners in a tale of heartbreak, self-discovery, and cautious optimism.
As Michellar puts it, “When the love is meant to be… love comes back,” a simple but profound truth that echoes throughout the song.
The lyrics paint a picture of vulnerability wrapped in quiet strength, capturing moments of doubt, regret, and the fragile excitement of a second chance. It’s a story told with raw honesty, where every word feels personal yet somehow relatable by all who care to listen.
Lyric like “And the reason was you’ve met somebody, that you think you love” convey the raw complexities of relationships—the mix of confusion, pain, and hope. Meanwhile, “I have to face these days alone” reveals a vulnerable moment of solitude and acceptance. Yet, rather than lingering in sorrow, Michellar uses the song to express the possibility of renewal: “But then today, you show up / And you look at me that certain way,” offering a heartfelt glimpse of a love ready to try again.
Her vocals are particularly noteworthy, soft, intimate and swelling with passion as the song moves towards it’s hopeful second half. The dual-layered vocal harmonies add a lush melodic richness, symbolizing the push and pull between heartbreak and healing, uncertainty and hope. This delicate balance between introspection and resolution gives the track a timeless quality.
Musically, “Never Say Sorry” has a warm and inviting sound, mixing gentle acoustic guitar, twangy electric guitar, soft piano that all come together to create a full and rich feeling. The song moves smoothly from quiet, thoughtful parts to brighter, more hopeful moments. Thanks to Tobias Wilson, who produced and finished the song in Staffordshire, UK, Michellar’s voice and story stands out clearly and beautifully.
One notable thing about this song is it’s delicate balance between softness and emotional weight. It feels like a warm conversation about filled with unspoken feelings, gentle reassurances, and a hopeful promise that sometimes, love just needs time to find its way back home. You can feel the tender and honest realization of love’s messy realities.
