"Walking On Air" made the charts internationally and was downloaded more than 500,000 time swhen it was featured on the iTunes Store's Single of the Week.

All three songs made it to the Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs chart's top ten. Two of the songs made it to number one.

Kerli lived in California for seven years. She moved to the woods in her homeland of Estonia.

"After spending half of my life living and creating in different parts of the planet, I have found a deep appreciation and a way back to my ancient Estonian roots. The art you're about to experience was made during a year in which I soaked in this magical land's inspiration by practicing an extremely simple lifestyle by myself in a little forest temple, having not much else with me than my music making tools. I am humbled to share the first piece with the world as these are some of the most honest sounds and visuals I've ever created. It is my hope that they bring as much joy to the listener as they have to me while birthing them into reality."

As a songwriter, Kerli co-wrote "Skyscraper," which was recorded by Demi Lovato and "I Feel Immortal", which was sung by Tarja Turunen. Kerli released her version of "I Feel Immortal" on Frankenweenie Unleashed!"

Kerli starred in Seven Lions' fantasy music video "Worlds Apart," which tells the the story of lovers separated who are separated by a universe. Seven Lions was off the five-song EP Worlds Apart which also featured Ellie Goulding and Tove Lo. The video was produced by DGReps, a creative talent agency who's founder has roots with renowned artist management company TH3RD BRAIN behind Krewella, ZHU, and Pegboard Nerds, it's fairly obvious why this video is of exceptional quality.

Feral Hearts

The whole world trying, to tame the spark

But we've got fire, burning bright, hidden

Catch the shimmer of showering stars

The sky gets dimmer, and your light shows

You are the vision I'm looking for (looking for)

Make me remember all I forgot

Watch me become just an animal

Naked to nothing more than who we are

Feral hearts, in the night

Loving like we've been kept captive

Free to light

Feral hearts, come alive

Loving like we've been kept captive

Free to...

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Feral, feral, feral hearts

Feral, feral, feral hearts

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Feral, feral, feral hearts

Feral, feral, feral hearts

The whole world trying to blind the way home

But we've got shelter, deep inside, secret

Tame the whispers of winds as they blow

Feel my shivers in your arms stop

You are the vision I'm looking for (looking for)

Make me remember all I forgot

Watch me become just an animal

Naked to nothing more than who we are

Feral hearts, in the night

Loving like we've been kept captive

Free to light

Feral hearts, come alive

Loving like we've been kept captive

Free to...

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Feral, feral, feral hearts

Feral, feral, feral hearts

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Feral, feral, feral hearts

Feral, feral, feral hearts
