Close To You

📝

“Close To You” was an unreleased track from 2017, but after all these years, it finally found its place on Gracie Abrams’ second studio album. And even now, it remains my favorite song on the entire record.

Ironically, it’s a song about never quite getting there. Gracie’s voice is hushed, aching, and fragile — as if she’s tiptoeing around an emotion she still doesn’t quite have permission to feel. The production is lush yet distant, echoing the space between wanting someone and actually reaching them.

The Secret of Us is an album for the moments when you’re not sure what you’re feeling — or when you’re feeling too much and can’t bring yourself to say any of it out loud.
