It’s no secret that Selena Gomez has been through the ringer in this industry, but part of what we love about her is that she always comes back swinging. The singer’s new single, “Lose You To Love Me” – her first solo track since 2018’s “Back To You” off of the second 13 Reasons Why soundtrack – is chock full of vulnerability, emotion, grit, and empowerment.
While we all may pretty much know who the song is speculated to be about, there’s no denying the driving force behind any breakup anthem: finding yourself again. “Lose You To Love Me” does just that in a universal way as Gomez tackles her tumultuous relationship in an honest and heartfelt way, while the track’s accompanying video – shot entirely on the new iPhone 11 Pro by Sophie Muller – offers a more heartbreaking take on her story; facial expressions, body language..they all tell the tale of what the singer has been through so poignantly. Basically, if you’re not shaking and crying by the end of this one, check your damn pulse!
“This song was inspired by many things that have happened in my life since releasing my last album,” she said in a statement. “I thought it was important to share the music, as I know many can relate to the fact that the road to self-discovery generally comes through the scars in one’s life. I want people to feel hope and to know you will come out the other side stronger and a better version of yourself.”
