We had the pleasure of interviewing Duncan Laurence over Zoom video.

Duncan Laurence shared the official video for his new single, \u201cElectric Life.\u201d

Shot in Amsterdam, the sepia-drenched video blurs the line between heaven and earth as Laurence, clad in a gossamer white shirt, performs the song alongside a troupe of choreographed hands, reaching out to support and encourage him from another world. Like the song, which features dynamic, colorful production inspired by \u201970s icons like Elton John and Queen, the celebratory clip is imbued with a sense of joy.

Laurence won the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 with \u201cArcade.\u201d The song took the #1 spot on Spotify\u2019s Global Viral chart on release and ultimately took off on Tik Tok with now over 56 billion views on the platform. Combined global streams of the song across all platforms have surpassed 10 billion and the single has attained Gold/Platinum certifications in 37 countries, including Platinum in the U.S., where it was a top 10 hit at Adult Contemporary radio. Placing in the top 30 of the Billboard Hot 100, \u201cArcade\u201d was the first Eurovision Song Contest winner to enter the prestigious chart in 45 years.

\u201cArcade\u201d was re-released in 2020 a new verse featuring FLETCHER. Working with women, particularly members of the LGBTQIA+ community, is a priority for Laurence. His crew on the visual for \u201cElectric Life\u201d and other forthcoming singles, for example, is composed predominantly of women.

\u201cElectric Life\u201d is the first track to be released from Laurence\u2019s sessions with his fianc\xe9, songwriter Jordan Garfield, and producer Paul Phamous (Frank Ocean, Nick Jonas). His ultimate goal with the song is to promote healing. \u201cI want people to find comfort when they listen to it,\u201d he says. \u201cI want them to think of that one person that they really miss and celebrate them.\u201d
