    Kate's new song delivers strong a message and on her twitter account explains the deep meaning behind the lines and the song's conception: 

    "I wrote it about six months ago, before all… this... happened. It’s about watching someone very close to you starting fall into a depression, and wanting to let them know that you’re there for them, in a very serious way."

    The music video for the track was a collaboration with director Christiaan Van Vuuren and choreographer Lucas Jervies. It was shot in isolation by each dancer on the phone and subsequently pieced together by Van Vuuren. You can watch the official music video below:
