Alejandro Aranda (formerly known as Scarypoolparty) captivates once again with his latest single, “Meant To Be”.
This melodically rich and heartwarming track has already garnered an outpouring of love from fans on Instagram and TikTok, who can’t get enough of Alejandro’s masterful fusion of emotive lyricism and musical skill. Known for his exceptional guitar technique, Alejandro’s talent takes center stage in this introspective track, as his smooth vocals effortlessly carry the poignant words: “Like a runaway train / I got this feeling in my heart / Every day feels like it’s falling apart / Our memories remind me why / You and I were meant to be in love.”
With “Meant To Be,” Alejandro creates a sound that is both ethereal and grounded, weaving a story of love that feels destined, as if written in the stars. The song’s gentle, acoustic arrangement perfectly complements his crooning vocals, offering a soundtrack for those who have ever felt the tension between longing and love. It’s a track that effortlessly balances bittersweet emotion, capturing the essence of hopeless romanticism.
The inspiration behind the song, as Alejandro explains, draws from a dream of escaping the confines of society, taking a journey on a train that leads him through different places, only to always circle back to love — a love he believes was “meant to be.” This theme of serendipitous connection resonates deeply throughout the song, with Alejandro’s evocative delivery elevating the emotional weight of the track.
Alejandro Aranda, who rose to fame as a finalist on American Idol in 2019, continues to solidify his place as an indie superstar.

He’s also built strong partnerships with brands like Orangewood, Shure Mic, and Gibson, and continues to tour with impressive acts like Covet, X Ambassadors, and Coheed & Cambria.
