It's Getting Warmer

It's Getting Warmer

“Mary Mind”, Lucky Lo's new single, continues her streak of making hope out of heartache through her life-affirming, indie-pop.

Mary Mind” transforms from its subdued intro into a dreamy, lighthearted soundscape, eventually ending on its anthemic refrain. While musically upbeat, its contrasting lyrics “It’s getting warmer / Are people getting colder?” leave an unsettling, unresolved image. Is it a picture of a party at the end of the world? Or is it a sign of Lo’s un-ending optimism?

Mary Mind” arrives with the announcement of Lucky Lo’s debut album Supercarry (March 25, 2022). Its title comes from her previous single by the same name, in which Lo professes the transformational power of caring for—supercarrying—the people around you. It’s a theme that can also be found on “Mary Mind”. “Be an anchor bonafide”, Lucky Lo sings, hinting at how being an everyday superhero can ripple beyond our immediate circle to the world as a whole.

I like to have a balance between austerity and lightheartedness in my songs” she says about her songwriting on the album. And despite the nuanced balance of joy and seriousness on “Mary Mind”, Lucky Lo says it all boils down to one simple message: “The song is essentially about climate change, and how we need to mind what we do to our planet.
