The limitless line of tweets calling for Madeon to launch “Love You Again” can now formally finish. However one thing that’s nowhere close to its stopping level—together with requests now piling in for “Gonna Be Good“—is the Good Religion period. That was one thing we’d already realized rather less than two years in the past when Madeon unofficially lengthened his sophomore album’s tracklist together with his Secret Sky ID-turned-album further, “The Prince.” Within the midst of his Good Religion run within the months following its preliminary reveal within the coronary heart of Chicago, Madeon had unexpectedly linked a never-before-heard monitor with a Good Religion Stay edit of “Beings.” “Love You Again” would tag alongside all through a handful of tour stops main into 2020 earlier than briefly fading into the ID void as quickly because the pandemic had struck. And nobody was positive at that time if it might ultimately see a correct launch like “The Prince,” however the second Madeon reintroduced it throughout his DJ set at The Roxy after which welcomed in its final version at Decadence Arizona this previous New 12 months’s Eve, it appeared like “Love You Again” had all of the makings to be his subsequent launch.
That hope immediately gave us greater than sufficient cause to put it proper in the midst of Dancing Astronaut‘s most anticipated IDs of 2022, and that call has paid off. As confirmed by Madeon himself, the title “Love You Again” is self explanatory with regards to the monitor’s deeper that means, performing as a message about “not absolutely loving somebody who loves you, and wishing you possibly can.” And the second Good Religion bonus monitor discovered its personal seat—lower from its “Beings” tether—inside Madeon’s updated version of Good Faith Forever that was ushered in earlier this yr. In contrast to “The Prince”—which Madeon mentioned simply didn’t slot in thematically together with his album’s route at massive—”Love You Again” would have come proper after “All My Associates” on the unique Good Religion tracklist had it really winded up on there. One hear in lossless high quality and there’s zero query that it’s a seamless, vibrant continuation of Madeon’s wealthy Good Religion narrative—whereas additionally dipping into some Journey nostalgia—that rigorously reopens the dialog of what single monitor finally tops his storied decade-plus monitor document. Madeon shared a message about why he determined to lastly free “Love You Again”—his first official launch by way of his new Mother+Pop label deal—and the way it got here to be, explaining,
“Hey !! This can be a music about being on the opposite facet of unrequited love – being with someone who loves you greater than you ever might. I began engaged on it some time in the past, it was initially gonna be one of many singles for Good Religion however I couldn’t determine it out on the time. I’ve performed variations of it at my reveals for years however not too long ago I made a decision to lastly share it with all people. This summer season simply felt proper.. It’s a cheerful but bittersweet, nostalgic music, virtually like a daytime counterpoint to my final launch « The Prince ». I hope you get to make stunning recollections with it this summer season.”
