Take Flight: freedom in its most simple and intense form. Levi Silvanie launches his new track and video

“Rotterdam, February 27, 2020 — No story is a purer testimony of the strength of profound connections between people than the story behind Take Flight. With this new track, Curacao’s own singer/songwriter Levi Silvanie makes a comeback — after three years of absence. It’s a song with not just a remarkable background story, but also a unique message.

Levi wrote the song Take Flight almost eight years ago. In the turbulent year 2012, which was marked for the artist by the death of a dear friend and a broken engagement, he laid the groundwork for this track. Oddly enough, or maybe just because of that, Take Flight is about the strength of connections between people, and overcoming the fear to engage in these connections. “Take Flight is about being open to loving one another. Everyone is unique, and therefore we must sometimes put aside the fear to be close to someone and to love each other,” says Levi. Taking flight doesn’t have to be about jumping off a plane, or some other enormous gesture. Levi: “I believe that the solution is to primarily learn to connect to, and love, yourself. The more you make the connection with yourself, the more you’ll learn about your inner strength — your ability to go through life growing, trusting that you’ll be alright no matter what. And the beauty of it all is that when you learn to connect with yourself, you’ll be able to see yourself in everything and everyone around you.” Especially nowadays in our current multi-cultural society, the connection Take Flight is all about is such a fitting theme. This can also be seen in the upcoming video, which was directed by Shariff Nasr and produced by André Freyssen from Videoagency. In this video we see an unorthodox friendship take shape between a little boy who’s locked out of his house, roaming the streets of Rotterdam and a homeless man who helps the boy get back home. In the video, they pass by people who each in their own way find their strength and experience an important phase of their life. These people suddenly transform into a flock of birds — a transition that symbolizes the strength that they find”.

Wondering how you can celebrate Women’s History Month 2020? We’ve got you covered with excellent ideas.

1. Explore the history of women’s rights. If you don’t know the history of women’s rights, now’s a perfect time to learn! 2. Be aware of issues women still face today. Although women have made progress, there are still areas where women face obstacles because of their gender. For example, women still earn less on average than men, carry the majority of household and childcare responsibilities, face workplace stigmas and double standards, and are under-represented in leadership, STEM careers, and politics. Plus, there’s domestic violence, sexual harassment, trafficking, and rape culture. Oh, and hiring bias, harmful beauty standards, and the pink tax. Do we need to go on? 3. Post on social media to spread awareness of Women’s History Month. 4. Support a women’s nonprofit. If you really want to make a measurable difference this Women’s History Month, support a charity that works with women and girls in need. 5. Host an event to celebrate women. An event is a fun way to acknowledge Women’s History Month and to build solidarity with other women 6. Support women-owned businesses. Women-owned businesses are on the rise, but women still represent the minority of business owners. Show your solidarity with these tenacious leaders, entrepreneurs, and service providers.
