5 Seconds of Summer continue their new era of music with the reflective ‘Old Me’.
The track sees the band contemplate their growth as individuals, with vocalist Luke singing “Shout out to the old me and everything you showed me / glad you didn’t listen when the world was trying to slow me.”
Speaking about the new song, Luke said: “‘Old Me’ carries a youthful spirit and follows the narrative of a young persons life growing up, for better or for worse. Every decision we made, whether right or wrong, has led us to the men we are proud to be today. We were thrown into the public eye at a young age and gratefully had each other at a confusing time. Sometimes it’s important we look back in order to appreciate the journey we’ve been on together.”
