Clinton Kane’s Breakout Year Continues With Quarantine Single

Clinton Kane first popped up on my radar in 2019 with an EP called this is what it feels like. The Aussie/singer songwriter then took a giant stride towards a commercial breakthrough by landing a feature on Martin Garrix’s “Drown” at the beginning of this year. Clinton now returns with a gloomy, pandemic-inspired single called “i don’t want to watch the world end with someone else.” The title says it all. This deeply-relatable gem is soaked in regret and remorse for fucking things up.

“This song was inspired by everything that’s going on right now,” the 21-year-old explains. “It’s about feeling like the world’s ending and wishing I had the person that I regret letting go of with me to go through all this shit together.” While the track is more than a little bleak, there is a ray of hope shining through. “I hope it helps people feel like everything is gonna be ok as long as they hold onto their loved ones,” he continues.
