Lucy Rose has dropped the euphoric new single called ‘Pale Blue Eyes’, and shared details of a tour for next year. Check out the details below.
Arriving today (February 25), the new track marks the singer-songwriter’s first material of 2025, and was recorded at Paul Weller’s studios in Surrey – the same space where she recorded much of her last album.
Largely composed of piano, drums and bass, the song takes on a breezy jazz feel, and captures a sense of weightlessness and euphoria.
“On the surface/ Was it worth it? / Under heartache. Underwater/ Cause you left me/ Left me stranded/ On an island/ Now I’m an island,” Lucy Rose sings in the atmospheric opening verse, gradually building to an uplifting chorus.
“Pale blue eyes They don’t deceive me now/ They show me who I really am/ Not broken just begun/ Talk to me my pale blue eyes/ They see me crystal clear/ Never been so grateful for/ Those pale blue eyes.”
Discussing the song in a new statement, she said: “The song, it’s a tricky one, took me a while to figure out what I wanted to say.
“The chorus is very much about that one person who kept me believing in myself at my lowest time, who was of course, my little boy. When I felt like my body was failing and no one around me believed me, he still loved me for me.”

In other Lucy Rose news, last year the singer spoke to NME for an In Conversation interview, and opened up about her experiences with rare pregnancy-related osteoporosis, and recalled how Paul Weller helped restore her confidence.
“He has always been amazingly kind to me. He’s one of my favourite people I’ve met on this journey musically,” she said of the former Jam frontman. “He’s always been really supportive and asked if I want to write a song together.
“The fact that he’d gone into the studio and listened to what I’d done felt massive to me,” she added. “[He told me I could] use the studio and these weren’t demos. He was like, ‘You don’t need a producer, you just need to keep coming here and laying down your music, and if you want any help with strings or direction, I know string players, I know these people. You just give me a call, and I’ll help in any way that I can.’ So I was absolutely buzzing because I do find thinking about how to make a record feels insanely daunting, so that was massive.”
