What’s this? The new single and video from Swedish artist Clara Mae – she’s back with ‘Not Sad Anymore’.
What’s it like? It’s a positive spin on the break-up anthem. An upbeat bop-along about being glad to wave goodbye to the past and being excited to be able to make plans for the future. In it, she paints a bright and uplifting picture with her words.
What does Clara say? “It’s no secret I love to write about those things that hurt a little extra. So writing a song about actually feeling good was something completely new to me and something I’ve always had a hard time doing. Therefore, I feel extra proud about this one. ‘Not Sad Anymore’ is about what comes after the hopelessness and the grief, the moment when you realise that life goes on, and that all the things we did together – I can do myself.”
Written by? Clara herself, along with Johan Lindbrandt and Robin Stjernberg.
More from Clara? She’s recently released a fantastic Swedish-language cover of The 1975’s ‘Somebody Else’ – ‘Någon Annan’.
