The single Say goodbye, which has been airing on several large and small radio stations all over Slovenia, has finally gotten a video. Like the song itself, it has been recorded in Slovenian and English.

Alya decided to collaborate with the filming crew Outdoggy, the video itself was shot in four days in various locations in Slovenia and Croatia. There are many romantic scenes in the video, which Alya played out with her keyboardist Boštjan.
Unfortunately, Boštjan hurt himself on the last day of shooting while opening a bottle of red wine. “It happened while we were shooting the “picnic” scene. The injury was more serious than it first appeared, considering how musicians take care of their fingers. Our picnic blanket was suddenly stained with drops of blood and my “lover” was shortly after brought to the Izola hospital, where he got 4 stitches,” explained Alya.

”Other than that, our team really had fun filming, despite the fact that they had to wake up at 6 a.m. every day and had to shoot late into the night. The last day was the best, since we shot the scene with the Cadillac at the Črni Kal pass,” she added.



The promotional event presenting her new video was hosted at the Playa bar in Ljubljana. The singer was accompanied on the red carpet by Dejan from the Španik car dealership, with which Alya has been collaborating for a while and has been, as a well-known celebrity, hosting events and helping to inform young drivers about defensive driving. “I was awaited at the end of the red carpet by the host Goti, which was a real surprise for me. I was happy that so many friends, colleagues and co-workers and even curious bystanders responded to the invitation. I was very pleased with the promotion of the video in the Playa bar, and came home in early morning hours,” said Alya, who is recently under way between Slovenia and Serbia. She namely appeared in several TV shows in Beograd.

Alya spent the entire year working and even the holidays weren’t an exception. She took a vacation not earlier than at the end of August, since she had no time earlier because of concerts and other obligations and now with the autumn promotion new obligations arrive. The start of the new school year will be accompanied with the new single TU IN ZDAJ (the English version SAY GOODBYE), for which the attractive singer shot a video at the end of August.
“It’s hard to explain why I decided the song Tu in zdaj to be my next single. When you get that feeling, you just do it! I like the song from its core and a lot of people tell me, that it’s very catchy and that it reminds you of the Duffy style and that it’s a mix, something special, but I like to add that the song is a sort of a surfer Poser’n’roll,” said Alya smiling.

The single was recorded in two versions, in Slovene and English. ”I have to say, that I really like to sing in English and my producers think that I sing better in a foreign language, hahaha,” commented Alya on her switch from one language to another, which is for most singers challenging. Otherwise she was accompanied by her “vocal coach” Jason, who is from the USA and is an excellent singing teacher and counsellor. He helped her with her pronunciation and was her adviser while she was recording in a studio in Germany.
“I’m very happy that the single will be released in both versions, because it would be hard for me to choose which one is better. I really enjoyed recording both versions and having to switch from one language to the other didn’t cause me any trouble. I’m certain that I will record more songs in a foreign language in the future, but at the same time I wish to remain loyal to my native language."

VIDEO COMING TO SMALL SCREENS AT THE END OF THE MONTH
Arriving soon to small screens is the video Tu in zdaj, which Alya shot with the Outdoggy crew in four days on different locations over Slovenia and Croatia. “There are a lot of romantic scenes in the video, which I shot with Boštjan, my keyboardist. I’ll reveal more about it, when it arrives at TV stations. The shooting was definitely different from the previous ones as it required more acting, which was the hardest part that we accomplished brilliantly.
Other than that, the fact that we shot the video for straight four days was an entirely new experience for me – the previous videos were shot in maximum two filming days – because of it was shot in different language versions. I haven’t seen the final cut of the video, but I’m very satisfied from what I saw up until now."

Alya will brighten autumn days with, beside her new song and video, concerts, which were already in abundance this year. “We had exceptionally good concerts this year in Ljubljana; I would also like to add that I haven’t had so many concerts in the Savinjska region, therefore “my region”, up until this year. I even had a concert in my hometown Mozirje haha! Sadly, I’m accompanied by a slight misfortune, as I twisted my ankle during a concert in spring and since then I’ve been trying to recover from the injury. At first it seemed that it was alright but then I twisted the same ankle again on the next concert ... So I’ve sadly been accompanied by the injury this year, of course beside great, loud and wild nights – concerts. But I won’t give in!”

Alya celebrated her birthday this Friday, but she says that the real celebration will begin a day later, at her concert.
“This month was full of pleasant obligations connected with music and for my birthday I wish more of it – so a lot more of good music and good friends,” says the attractive singer from Mozirje, who is  still presenting the single Non Stop from her album with the same title, across stages all over Slovenia.

She hopes that the concert, with which she will celebrate her birthday, will be different than her last one, at which the back of her corset loosened. “Each concert has a unique story and each time something interesting and funny happens. Whether it happens on the stage, behind it or in the wan on the way to the concert. It’s why I like to do what I do, because music is a lifestyle for me. But this time, I was the one that being laughed at. I already had my entire back in the open, so I had to hold onto my corset in the front, so it wouldn’t entirely fall off. I finished the song with a big laugh and made a short break, so that I could have a change of clothes,” said Alya laughing.

She also prepared a new Facebook profile with the name AlyaMusic. You can still find all current events and news on her official site www.alya.info
