Hey, soul seekers! Ready to wrap yourself in a song that’s like a warm hug for the heart? Riquay’s “Dreaming of You” dropped on February 7, 2025, and it’s an adult contemporary gem that’s all about finding comfort in memories of lost love. This alt-rock singer-songwriter’s latest single is a tender tribute to enduring grief and resilience—perfect for anyone carrying the weight of the world. Let’s dive into this ethereal beauty and feel the love linger!


The Sound, The Sentiment, The Stillness

“Dreaming of You” opens with a gentle, ethereal melody—think soft piano notes and a delicate arrangement that feels like a whisper in the dark. Riquay’s dark contralto voice—rich and haunting—carries lyrics that paint a heartfelt dialogue: “The world is dreaming of you now / Your words still fill the air / You left a rainbow in a cloud / Telling me you’re still there.” It’s a slow, tender build, blending adult contemporary’s polished warmth with a raw, emotional core that echoes her alt-rock roots. The mood is both soothing and sorrowful—perfect for quiet reflection or a moment to honor those we’ve lost.

Inspired by the collective grief of the post-pandemic years—wars, disasters, and all—Riquay turns memories into a “rainbow in the cloud,” a beacon of solace amid the storm. With influences from Leonard Cohen’s poetic depth to Tori Amos’s emotive pull, she crafts a track that’s intimate yet universal, a tribute to love that never fades. Fresh off her Season of the Crow days and “Purple Dancer” solo debut, “Dreaming of You” showcases her knack for introspective storytelling. Adult contemporary’s soulful wave is strong in 2025, and this song’s a standout—hit play below and let it hold you close!
