Gracie Abrams on Free Now

[Spoken Word]
"Free Now" is at and always has been my sneaky favourite
Um, I love, I love the song so much and it did a lot for my brain
That I, uh, I think really needed at the time, um, I-I this was one
And I feel like I this is just always been my instinct
This songwriting since I was a really little child, which is that
I feel like I'm writing because I have to in the same way that
I drink water because I have to or breathe because I have to
It's like just one of those bodily instincts, I suppose
And this song
I felt like I was able to acknowledge multiple sides
Of something without anger, um
And without real sadness
But actually kind of to say it all with a smile
And like have a deeper understanding
For, for, the, the relationship, um
And to not take everything so personally as well
Like everyone is on their own journey, obviously
Every single one of us is radically different from the next, and
To make room for that is really crucial, I think
In order to grow up
That's my opinion, at least today on June 26th, 2024
Um, yeah, it's one of my favourite bridges, also
I just am proud of this song top-to-bottom
And I loved making it—
