MØ Premieres New Song “Heartbreak” on BBC Radio 1
Danish singer-songwriter MØ premiered a new song “Heartbreak” on BBC Radio 1's New Music Show with Jack Saunders.
The song is the sixth and final pre-release single from her upcoming fourth studio album “Plæygirl”. which is set to be released this Friday (May 16th).
It was written by Albin Nedler, Karen Ørsted, Kristoffer Fogelmark, Nick Sylvester, and Sylvester Willy Sivertsen. Produced by Nick Sylvester and Sly.
“I think this is a significant thing to know, is that this song is actually my favorite song to play live. That doesn't say a little, I think,” MØ told Jack Saunders about the song. “I do think this is sort of like the ending piece to the album. It is also like almost the last song on the album. It's sort of this kind of like you go through the journey and then in the end, it's like, just give me all. Like as you say, like that euphoric like the letting go, I guess, like getting in. Totally it's a bigger universal feeling.”
She continued, “This song, for me, symbolizes. Like that moment of like, instead of being in your head, just being present, being like, I don't care what people think, I'm just gonna be myself.”- The new album comprises 12 tracks, featuring a guest appearance from Irish singer-songwriter Biig Piig, produced by Nick Sylvester and Sly. It is her first album in three years since the 2022 album “Motordrome”.
MØ said of the album, “I think the best thing about it was actually that the executive producer of this album, his name is Nick Sylvester. He would come to Copenhagen, where I live. And we would just have such a nice and focused, wholesome time in the studio. Like a process where you really get to go deep, like both on the lyrics, but also on productions. And again, I think that's also why it has become this kind of very organic collection of just my life and my thoughts.” -
She added, “I think the one story that sort of is the playground world is that thing of like being yourself and like embracing imperfection, like my messy nature, but also my joyful nature. So it's really, I think that thing about not overthinking it, but just doing it, just saying it. And I think that is the thing that has been a process and like a story in my life. Is that thing of like, just finding myself like, embracing who I am.” - source : BBC Radio 1
