Lany and Julia Michaels release a new song titled “Okay“. On their latest collaboration, their voices, in carefully offset harmony, are supported by a pulsating vocal sample; acoustic drumstick hits build anticipation, and then allow it to plateau gracefully near the chorus.
What starts out as a careworn tune over love lost, arranged with the same tonality of LANY’s sophomore album, Malibu Nights, turns into cooled conversation, while an uncertain hope hangs over both singers.
“Okay” is the type of modern alt-pop groove whose success depends upon the right artistic visions to package the final product in the least trite way possible. Perhaps there are no two better actors to do so than Julia Michaels and Klein.
Both of them tour on monstrous individual schedules, delivering what feels like stadium-level energy to crowds in theaters across the United States; Michaels is even currently the opening act on P!nk’s Beautiful Trauma World Tour. They’ve only been able to do so by cultivating unique voices in each of their respective works.
