Here is Ingrid Michaelson & ZAYN – To Begin Again (download). The song released with Mp3 streaming [320kbps]. The new track is the latest record from the music acts.
The song, produced by Sam de Jong (Alec Benjamin, Pale Waves), is described in a statement as a one-off collab from Michaelson as she continues work on the music and lyrics for the upcoming Broadway adaptation of The Notebook. “I wrote ‘To Begin Again’ the night that Biden won. There was so much joy in my neighborhood. Pots and pans being banged out of windows. Horns and whistles. Clapping. Singing!” said Michaelson in a statement.
“The collective sigh of relief resonated with me in such a way that I had to get it out musically. I sat at the piano and wrote most of the song right there in 15 minutes,” she added, noting that Aarons helped her with the second verse, at which point she realized it needed to be a duet. “I love ZAYN’s voice, especially when he goes high and sweet and sad. It was the perfect fit. The song is a song of hope and of release. Of beginning again…”
Michaelson said she was not planning to work on any new pop tunes as she hammered down on The Notebook and an animated children’s show. But she suddenly felt compelled to write “To Begin Again,” which she hopes will give people a “collective sigh” of relief.
“It was more than it just came out. I had to. Who writes a pop song that’s like when the world was ending,” she said to Lowe. “Like, that’s not very happy and joyful. People don’t want to hear that.” Luckily for her, Zayn’s management had reached out in January 2020 to let her know that he was a fan, which left her shellshocked that someone she considers to be on a totally “different level of famedom” wanted to work with her.
The ballad, which they co-wrote with Sarah Aarons (co-writer of Zedd’s “Stay” and “The Middle”), is a snapshot of the moment most of the world is going through right now as the COVID vaccine brings the promise of rebirth after a harsh year.
When the world was ending, I’d hold you in my arms
And we talked about the places we’d never been
When the world was ending, we’d hold on to the past
‘Cause it’s all we thought that we would ever see
