After her collaboration with Clean Bandit “Tears“, X Factor champ Louisa Johnson finally releases her first proper debut solo single “So good”.
The track, written by Steve Mac, Chelcee Grimes & Ed Drewett, is a cinematic and dramatic instant pop classic, showered in soaring strings and with a dark undertone.
“It’s quite a dark song and a lot different to other stuff I’ve sung before” said Louisa. “It’s also a lot different to what people may expect. It just clicked with me. I could relate to the words. It’s kind of like that thing in life where you do go out, get really drunk and regret it the next day, but you had such a good time.”
The clip, directed by Emil Nava (Adele, Beyoncè, Selena Gomez), was shot in the Californian desert, Palmdale.
It’s concept-heavy with a good and evil Louisa.
Last week the singer made her triumphant return to the X Factor U.K stage as she performed her new track.

Lyrics:

I said about five minutes away
One more stop and I will be off this train
I’m free any day of the week
Always losing some sleep

I told myself I’ll be back by ten
Trying to save myself for the weekend
But I know me, I hate to miss a party

Don’t say, don’t say I didn’t warn you
Don’t say I didn’t warn you
I live for the moment

I wasn’t supposed to go out tonight
I should be at home
I got work at 9
Shouldn’t be out here doing what I like
But it feels so good, so good

I was only gonna be an hour or two
I guess that now I’m here I’m going down with you
But it feels so good, so good

Angel on my shoulder is giving up on me
No listening to him and I can hardly speak
The music they play makes me this way

I think it was only 10
How did it get to 3
It’s like I’m in my own time machine
But you know me, I never leave

Don’t say, don’t say I didn’t warn you
Don’t say I didn’t warn you
Just live for the moment

I wasn’t supposed to go out tonight
I should be at home
I got work at 9
Shouldn’t be out here doing what I like
But it feels so good, so good

I was only gonna be an hour or two
I guess that now I’m here I’m going down with you
But it feels so good, so good
