She co-wrote the song “Come Back Home,” and recently performed it at the LuisaViaRoma for UNICEF event held at La Certosa di San Giacomo in Capri, Italy, which is the same event Jennifer Lopez took the stage for.

As noted by Just Jared, the Purple Hearts soundtrack is No 2, on the iTunes overall albums chart, and No 1, on the Soundtrack chart, with three songs at the top of the Soundtrack songs chart. It also remains the No 1, movie on Netflix in the US. Amid the song’s success, on Wednesday, she released a music video for the piano version it.



Purple Hearts is a love story about Cassie (Carson), an aspiring musician who agrees to a marriage of convenience with a soon-to-deploy Marine, Luke (Galitzine), soon after, tragedy strikes. In the video, Carson is playing the piano while singing the touching lyrics, starring Galitzine.

There have been hundreds of fans who watched the film leaving comments about how it touched them, “Dude I am a guy that did serve and left his fiancé for long periods, and this movie hit it right on. I love it,” wrote a fan. “Watched it for the first time about three or four days ago, and I have seen it about 4 times already. My wife and I timed it and watched it together over the phone because once again I am working away from home for long periods of time. Love it and the music,” he continued.



Carson has also been praised for her performance. “Obviously I’m not the only one that watched this movie and was so astounded by the angelic voice of Sofia Carson, that they turned to YouTube to listen to more! great movie indeed, but Sofia absolutely killed it in her role! And that voice… no words,” wrote another viewer. “With everything the world is going through right now, especially the war, this song, and this movie came at a great time. Sofia and Nick delivered too much in Purple Hearts, and this song very much transcribes all the feeling that encompasses the film, in addition to being perfect,” a fan wrote.

THe 29 year-old told The List in an interview released last week that the experience of co-writing the songs was “terrifying” but inspiring. “It was incredibly exciting and terrifying at the same time because I’ve been writing songs since I was 11 years old, but I had never written a soundtrack before or written songs that had to serve a particular purpose for a story. It’s a very different experience than writing whatever you’re feeling at that moment. I had to write songs through Cassie’s perspective, not my own,’’ she told the outlet.
