Nathan Says: “I’m Fine”

-

Singaporea­n singer-songwriter Nathan Hartono continues with his momentum of releases in 2021 with a brand new English single titled: “I’m Fine.”

The track, released under Warner Music Singapore, is written by Nathan Hartono and produced by Singaporea­n producer MYRNE. The single takes a different twist from Nathan’s usual singer-songwriter style, venturing into the electronic sonic realm with ‘80s synth-wave styling.

Says Nathan: “‘I’m Fine’ stems from me wanting to give a more succinct answer to the question ‘How Are You?’. In my head, every time someone asks me this question, I want this song to play for them instead. Because I think it’s such a loaded question, that requires so much context and understand­ing that just cannot be achieved in a short social exchange. And I think we got this question a lot in 2020. So, we just say ‘I’m Fine,” when there’s always so much more to that story.”

True to the song’s strong thematic backstory, Nathan also conceptual­ised the cover artwork as a visual representa­tion of the struggles of keeping a positive outlook despite the dark internal conflict.

Since the release of his last English single ‘Dig Deep’ back in August 2020, Nathan continues to push his creative boundaries as he works on new music that will be released throughout 2021, culminatin­g into an EP in late 2021. Listen to “I’m Fine”: https://wmsg.lnk.to/nathanhart­ono-imfine
