iamnotshane - ‘Maybe My Soulmate Died’

iamnotshane captures the anxiety of missed opportunity and fear of loneliness in introspective new single ‘Maybe My Soulmate Died’.

LA-based singer-songwriter iamnotshane has amassed over 50 million streams globally. With recognitions from various platforms including Billboard, Wonderland, Notion and CLASH, the indie pop artist is becoming widely known in the music industry. iamnotshane is currently on his ‘One Less Year Alive’ tour where he has been performing his new single ‘Maybe My Soulmate Died’. On describing the meaning behind the song, Shane outlines:

"Maybe My Soulmate Died is about missed connections and the anxiety of being single. The plausibility that you missed out on experiencing your one true love because you didn't step out of your comfort zone and take a risk."

The alt-pop song cleverly contrasts sombre lyrics with an upbeat bassline and steady drum-beats. Shane’s raw honesty serves as a reminder to let go of the fear of rejection and take opportunities when they arise. The authenticity of the track seems to have been well received, with Maybe My Soulmate Died gaining 20 million views before its release and over 500,000 streams within 24 hours, making it Shane’s fastest rising song to date. Despite its heartfelt message - it’s the perfect danceable summer tune too!
