Swiss singer-songwriter Borovsky returns with his latest single, “A Leap in the Dark,” a powerful and emotionally charged pop rock track that explores the tension between uncertainty and excitement when stepping into the unknown.
Borovsky (vocals & guitar), who grew up in the Basel region of Switzerland, has been writing pop and rock songs since the 1980s. His debut album, Top of the Rock, was released in autumn 2016, marking the beginning of a steady creative journey that has since produced several albums, EPs and singles, including “A Question of Time,” “Skyscraper” and “The One.”
With “A Leap in the Dark,” Borovsky continues to build on his signature nostalgic pop rock sound, drawing inspiration from the rich melodic and emotional traditions of the 1980s. Fans of Simply Red, Simple Minds, Chris Rea, Yes, Billy Idol and the era of classic 80s pop rock will find a familiar yet fresh energy in this new release.
The song was written in London and is deeply personal.
“I wrote ‘A Leap in the Dark’ after leaving a company where I had worked for roughly 17 years,” says Borovsky. “The song captures that moment when you feel both concern about the unknown and the thrill of a new beginning. It’s really about restarts, taking risks and making big decisions in life.”
Blending reflective lyrics with uplifting melodies and atmospheric production, “A Leap in the Dark” resonates with anyone facing change or searching for the courage to take the next step. The track highlights Borovsky’s ability to translate universal experiences into heartfelt songs that connect across generations.
“With ‘A Leap in the Dark,’ Borovsky captures the thrill and uncertainty of life’s turning points, wrapping it all in the lush, nostalgic pop rock sound that fans of the 80s will instantly recognise and love,” music publicist Danielle Holian, Decent Music PR shares.
