After months of waiting, Laufey is finally back with a new song! But what does this song mean and what is this new era she seems to be in?

On March 23rd, a video posted by Laufey revealed a teaser for a possible new song. One day later, she released a pre-save and title for her new song: “Silver Lining”. Many noticed that the teaser appeared to show a slightly different side to Laufey and a tease of a possible new era. The song appeared to be more confident and a departure from her more reflective style. 

While her prior songs were spent looking back on things she may have wished she had or hadn’t done, this song takes a different approach. Rather than looking back, this song looks forward as she describes how she’d be with someone no matter what and that even in the worst of times, the “silver lining” is that she is there with them which makes it better. 

While it’s no guarantee that her music will stay with this style, it is always good to see an artist branch away from their norm. And if we know anything for certain, she’s staying with jazz.
