Charlotte Lawrence Details

Charlotte Lawrence has released her new single ‘Slow Motion’, as well as revealing that work is now complete on her debut album and teasing that she may work with Yungblud again.

The US singer-songwriter has amassed millions of streams in recent years, most successfully with the single ‘Why Do You Love Me’ and ‘The Joke’s On You’ from the Birds Of Prey soundtrack. Now, she’s back with ‘Slow Motion’ – written by Lawrence alongside Andrew Watt, Jason Evigan and Ali Tamposi and complete with a music video filmed during lockdown.

“The song is special to me,” she told NME. “I consider it a sad song. The lyrics are about being done with a relationship – whether that’s a romantic relationship, a friendship – and you’re just ready for it to be over. You know it’s the right thing to do, but you’re going to be taking a while to get over it.”

She continued: “In my heart, I’m a person who leans towards sad songs. That’s the music I’m obsessed with, but I’m also someone who loves to dance and to be able to move to a song. I’m always split between the two. I wrote this song on the piano and wanted to keep that sad feeling attached, but also to be able to smile and move to it.”
