Loreen Returns With Contemplative Banger ‘Is It Love’

Pop superstar and two-time Eurovision champion Loreen returns with her hotly anticipated follow-up to Tattoo this week. The new number is Is It Love – a euphoric pop number that blends Loreen’s Moroccan heritage with sharp pop production and emotionally penetrating themes.

With producer Rami Yacoub and a songwriting team including Loreen, Dag Lundberg, Maia Wright, Kian Sang, Karl Ivert & Rami. It’s a fresh chapter in the discography of the iconic songstress, yet feels classic Loreen.

Loreen says: “Is It Love” was born from a place of seeking clarity, it’s a song describing and contemplating a love that’s so deep but at the same time filled with confusion. It’s about realising that to create a deeper understanding of yourself you need to accept the duality of life, that distortion and clarity goes hand in hand and are equally as important. And to experience the depth of true love, both to the self as well as to others, you have to accept and experience the depth of pain.”

The musician will be hitting the road next month across the UK and Europe – see dates below.
