Maisie Peters has shared new single ‘Lost The Breakup’ from her upcoming second album ‘The Good Witch’. Check it out below, along with her performance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.

‘Lost The Breakup’ is the opposite of the album’s first single ‘Body Better’. It sees Peters move from rocker chic and re-enter her pop-girl era.

“If ‘Body Better’ was me at my lowest, ‘Lost The Breakup’ was me clawing my way back up and out.”

She continued, “It feels like dressing up in sequins and going to a party with your best friends, like cheap champagne and smudged lipstick and burgers on the floor at 3am. It’s a manifestation song and maybe if you sing it, it will come true (it did for me).”

‘Lost The Breakup’ sees Peters come to the realisation that she has come off better than her ex at the end of a relationship, with a chorus that rings: “One day, you’re gonna wake up / And, oh shit, you lost the brеakup / I’ll smile and you’ll have to face it / I’m thе greatest love that you wasted”. 

‘The Good Witch’ is set for release on June 16 via Gingerbread Man/Asylum. Check out the tracklist below.
