Tove Styrke Releases New Song “YouYouYou”
Swedish singer-songwriter Tove Styrke released a new song “YouYouYou” along with a music video on May 6, 2022.
The song is he third single off of her upcoming fourth studio album “Hard”, following “Show Me Love” and “Hardcore”.
It was written by Lilian Caputo, Jason OK, BØRNS, Ethan Schneiderman, Ally Ahern and Tove Styrke.
Produced by Randy Merrill, Ethan Schneiderman and Jason OK.
Tove Styrke said of the song, “It's the sunrise and the sunset. It's the drama, the romance, the big bang of the album. To me it's an instant classic and it got all the elements that I love in a big pop song. I love the analog vibes, it almost sounds like the music on a VHS tape that you've recorded on over and over.”
The accompanying video was directed by Cornelia Wahlberg. Tove Styrk said of the video, “I knew right away that the video was gonna have to be a dramatic portrayal of passion. I wanted to interact with people that kept changing throughout the song. I wanted it to be steamy, sexual and I also wanted to incorporate dance and use the body and movement as an expression as much as the music. We shot the whole thing on film, only using analog tricks for the effects. I think that approach fits the sound perfectly.”- The album is set to be released on June 3, 2022 via RCA/Sony Music. It is her first album in four years.
She said of the album, ”I'm releasing my fourth album – 'HARD'. I can't wait to show you this music, I think it's the best project to date that I've created both as a singer, songwriter and artist. Life, feelings, bodies. Everything's hard. This album is about the pleasure and the pain, the euphoria and the misery, the love stories and the heart breaks. The contrasts. And it's about the liberation in being a free, flawed and beautiful human.” - source : Apple Music
