Speaking on the topic of the song, which focuses on the themes of a girl and boy friendship and how it can be affected by a new romantic relationship, Lauren explained: “It’s completely different to the themes I usually write about.

“This song is about a relationship with a friend and they have gotten into a new relationship and you don’t get on with the person they are with.

“It’s frustrating because you want your boy best friend to be happy, but you can’t be because your not accepted in his life.

“It’s a topic that must go on all over the world, but I’ve never heard it in a song before.”

Lauren writes all of her songs “from scratch”, including the melodies, which Lauren has described as “uncertain”, she explained: “It’s got an uncertain feel to it, because that’s what this song is about.

“I made it sound sad, but the melodies sound happy so it has a contrast, which i love doing in songs.”

The single will be accompanied by a brand-new music video, which will be available to watch on YouTube. Boy Best Friend’s New Girlfriend will be available on all music streaming platforms.
