YUNGBLUD is gearing up for his 2020 take over and we are more than ready to see where he takes us.

The UK based singer/songwriter turned punk icon has just released another brand new single and music video titled “god save me, but don’t drown me out.”

An ode to mental health, “god save me, but don’t drown me out,” is a pop rock track about re-claiming your narrative and realizing that you’re both not alone in your fight but also that you can overcome the things that make you feel your lowest.

“I won’t let my insecurities define who I am.”

The track’s music video, which also dropped this week, marked the singer’s directorial debut alongside partner Gavin Gottlich, and shows him navigating life with a large and in-charge teddy bear by his side, reminding him he is capable of anything despite what his brain tells him.

“I wanted to paint a picture of what depression really feels like, where everyone can be screaming at you, but you just can’t hear anything at all,” the singer shared. “I wanted this video to ignite a resemblance or a spark of self-love to highlight the idea that if you ever feel like you can’t go on, it can get better. you are brilliant, you are an individual and there has only ever been one you and there will only ever be one of you.”

“Everyone has their own inner teddy bear, all you gotta do is just let it out. It might just save your life.”

In addition to the new single, this past week YUNGBLUD also announced his upcoming sophomore album, weird!, which is set to debut November 13th.
