OMG YES!  LOVE THIS. I can’t believe we’ve finally got a lead single to a new album after all these years!  SO worth the wait PLUS such a gorgeous video. Definitely one of her most stunning ones. Really happy to see her music evolve even more, as this feels like a further growth from Wild Hope and Amanda Leigh which are like two of my all time Top 20 albums. THANK YOU MANDY, THANK YOU LIFE!  |

This is wonderful! Words CANNOT express how much I've missed her music. For a while during my teens she was my #1 favorite artist with the Wild Hope album, especially, as well as the rest of her music.
God I missed that voice.

I have never quite loved any of her projects from start to finish but she deserves so much more recognition.

I have never quite loved any of her projects from start to finish but she deserves so much more recognition. I feel like the “Wild Hope” album is probably peak, creative Mandy. The “Amanda Leigh” album gets a little too artsy-fartsy for its own good and falls apart towards the end, IMO. She is INCREDIBLY underrated as a live performer and I agree that she deserves so much more credit and praise than she’s given. This Is Us has done wonders for her public profile so I’m hoping that actually translates to people at least streaming this new material. |

This has been on repeat. Love the sound she's going for as it's a natural fit and glad the first single has a little umph to it; I was worried she'd go hardcore Laurel Canyon folk-pop vibe.

This is great. I didn't like her last album at all but loved Wild Hope. This would probably get Triple A attention if it were someone like Lissie or Birdy.

LOVE THIS! 'Wild Hope' is definitely one of my favorite albums of all time, but for some reason I never really liked 'Amanda Leigh' with the exception of a song or two, but this makes me very hopeful.

Wow, it's been like a decade since her last studio album. Hope she's really back onboard as a singer.
(And man! "I Wanna be With You" brings me back to my high school days.)

She's such a beautiful woman. Sweet song, i think i like the verses more than the chorus.

I love this song so much. It's gorgeous and sad but upbeat. The 70s California vibe fits her so well.
Unrelated but I wish she would put Amanda Leigh up on streaming already...

Not feeling her vocals but instruments are great. One of the most enjoyable releases this week.

Checked this out of curiosity and I really like it. It feels fresh among all the other kinds of stuff released recently. The vocal production could be a little more seamless, but it’s a great track.

The 70s California vibe fits her so well. You say 70s, and I think it sounds like what Fleetwood Mac could have made then. |
