Sunshine Coast Artist Mayah Releases Reimagined Cover of Someone You Loved.
Sunshine Coast singer-songwriter Mayah returns with a heartfelt new release: her reimagined cover of Someone You Loved, originally performed by Lewis Capaldi. Known for her emotive vocals and raw honesty, Mayah brings a fresh perspective to the global hit, blending its deep emotional core with an upbeat pop vibe and her own unmistakable vocal style.
Now 6 years into her professional music career, Mayah has established herself as a prolific and passionate independent artist. With more than 680,000 collective streams on Spotify, 22,000 YouTube subscribers, and a steadily growing social media audience, she continues to build a deeply engaged fanbase drawn to her authenticity and emotional storytelling.
Mayah’s version of Someone You Loved maintains the song’s powerful vulnerability while adding a pop feel. The result is a rendition that feels both familiar and new — honouring the original while allowing space for her emotional nuance to shine through. Mayah chose Someone You Loved as a longtime favourite she has often performed live. Its heartfelt lyrics and raw emotion resonate deeply with her and reflect the emotional honesty at the core of her songwriting.
“The heart of the song is ache and honesty — I never wanted to lose that,” Mayah explains. “I gave it a more upbeat pulse but maintained the emotional integrity so it feels both familiar and new.”
The release follows a strong run of original music, including fan favourites Loved & Lost and Traffic Light, whose music videos have collectively amassed well over 290,000 YouTube views. Mayah’s music has also crossed into film and screen, with Loved & Lost featured in the Australian feature film He Loves Me Not, screening on Foxtel.
With this release, Mayah continues to focus on delivering meaningful music that resonates on a human level. Her take on Someone You Loved is a reminder of her strength as both a vocalist and an interpreter — capable of breathing new life into a song that has already touched millions.
