song: "Lauren" - Rosie Tucker

Each piece of Rosie Tucker’s upcoming album has been unexpectedly different and unique, with the singer giving little indication of the entire picture that will come to compromise Never Not Never Not Never Not. For “Lauren,” we’re treated to lush acoustics and a slowed-down, but still just as impactful single. Tucker’s tender vocals turn impassioned when questioning the sudden departure of a friend named Lauren, with the singer asking “Who’s gonna hear my song through the wall/And say don’t change a thing/Play it just like that yeah.” Reaching out for someone who isn’t there is reflected in an abrupt tempo change, with Tucker taking one final look back before flying into a finale.
