It’s nostalgic and poetic, hitting fans with emotions straight through the heart.

To honor the singer’s birthday, it’s a collaboration of home videos and concert films, all overplayed through a projector on a simplistic bedroom (that I’m pretty sure was from the “Graveyard” music video, only making it more meaningful). It’s a song that trails shivers down your spine, that makes you tear up, that alleviates loneliness on a long night, and now, there’s a music video to match those feelings.

From “I wasn’t in love then, and I’m still not now, and I’m so happy I figured that out” to “well who am I, I’m almost 25,” I memorized this entire song from the beginning, a ballad in free verse that Halsey spontaneously wrote in the studio hearing the beat for the first time.
While my other favorites on the album varied depending on my mood or my life at the moment, “929” was consistent in my reaction to the emotional and painfully honest lyrics. It was a wonderful surprise, a dance through an aquarium with her and her younger brother, the choreography devised by the two of them, but this year, Halsey celebrated with something a little closer to home: a music video for “929.”įrom “MANIC,” “929” was my absolute favorite song. Last year, prior to the release of her latest album “MANIC,” Halsey teased the album with her single “clementine” and an accompanying music video. It's literally just, like, whatever the f**k I felt like making there was no reason I couldn't make it," she explained.There is nothing Halsey loves more than surprising fans on her birthday. In an interview with Rolling Stone, the singer shared details about the genesis of the new album, which is a blend of "hip-hop, rock, country, f***ing everything." "Manic" will mark Halsey's third studio effort, following her 2017 critically acclaimed "Hopeless Fountain Kingdom." "Clementine" will appear on Halsey's upcoming new album, "Manic," which is expected to arrive on January 17, 2020.Īhead of the album release, the vocalist has previously released "Graveyard" and "Without Me" as the first two singles from the project. "I'd like to tell you that my sky's not blue, it's violent rain/And in my world, the people on the street don't know my name/In my world, I'm seven feet tall," she sings in the opening verse of the song. In the video, the sister-brother duo dances passionately in the dimly lit aquarium filled with blue fish tanks. I wanted to celebrate today by sharing a new song called “clementine”and a cute lil video for it that i made with my brother Sevian. Exactly 25 years ago to this moment I was born.
