Today, multi-platinum international award-winning artist Loreen unveils highly anticipated new single, “Is It Love”
Loreen’s powerhouse voice takes center stage. Introspective verses glow over cinematic production as the momentum swells into a soaring Sia-like chorus punctuated by vocal “spiritual pop” fireworks. She opens up like never before as she wonders “Is It Love” on this engaging and enthralling new anthem. “Is It Love” is about the duality in love. How there’s no light without darkness, no clarity without distortion and no love without pain.
The track is written by MTHR (”Can’t Tame Her” – Zara Larsson, “Better Days” – Neiked) together with Dag Lundberg (”Where Are You Now” – Lost Frequencies) and Maia Wright (Armin Van Buuren, Gryffin NOTD). The vocal production is made by Albin Nedler (Harry Styles, Sam Smith, Selena Gomez), and mix engineer Josh Gudwin (Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Justin Bieber).
Loreen says:
“Is It Love” was born from a place of seeking clarity, it’s a song describing and contemplating a love that’s so deep but at the same time filled with confusion. It’s about realising that to create a deeper understanding of yourself you need to accept the duality of life, that distortion and clarity goes hand in hand and are equally as important. And to experience the depth of true love, both to the self as well as to others, you have to accept and experience the depth of pain.”
With 13 million monthly Spotify listeners and described by Rolling Stone US as a “dance-pop superstar”, “Is It Love” follows hot on the heels of her second colossal Eurovision-winning single, “Tattoo”. The track was #1 on French radio airplay chart for 5 consecutive weeks, #1 in 19 countries and peaked at #5 on the Global Spotify chart, #15 on the Billboard chart and #2 in the UK Official Singles Chart. “Tattoo”, which remained in the UK Official Singles chart for 9 weeks after the historic win, notably enshrined her as the first woman—and only the second person ever—to win the Eurovision Song Contest twice.

Loreen “Is It Love” Lyrics
VERSE 1
You’ll find me in the echo of the dark
Working on the riddle of your heart
Lost you in a maze now let me out
Is it love, is it love, is it love?
PRE
Without a warning,
Without a sign
Will you call me,
Or will you hide
There’s a shadow,
In my mind
How do i know it,
Is it love?
CHORUS
Tell me where in your heart am i now
Is it love, is it love, is it love
Tell me what do you feel in the night
Is it love, is it love, is it love
Is it love, is it love
Tell me how do you sleep when i’m not by your side
Is it love, is it love, is it love?
VERSE 2
You’ll find me in the middle of the sea
Drowning in the words that we don’t speak
Bring me out, don’t leave me in the deep
Is it love?
HOOK
Without a warning,
Without a sign
Will you call me,
Or will you hide
There’s a shadow,
Oh, in my mind
How do i know it,
Is it love?
CHORUS
Tell me where in your heart am i now
Is it love, is it love, is it love
Tell me what do you feel in the night
Is it love, is it love, is it love
Is it love, is it love
Tell me how do you sleep when i’m not by your side
Is it love, is it love, is it love?
