Selena Gomez Drops 'Single Soon,' Leaving Fans OBSESSED With Her Love Life!

August 24 has got to be some sort of music day, given we are getting multiple new songs - so let's start with Selena Gomez and her super peppy celebration, "Single Soon" which finds home in the hearts of all single people. Let's just call it the anthem of the year for all those who need a break from love!
The Song Kicks Off With Great Advice From Gracie
Gomez posted a last little teaser on August 24 morning, that showed her walking into a room and with her little sister, Gracie's voice playing the background, saying, "I love you, Sissy. Don't ever worry about boyfriends, like AT ALL!"
We have to admit, that's some sound advice from Gracie for sure...
Gomez's new song is the perfect club number for a girl's night out, and if we read Barbie overtones in it, well, you can't blame us. It's also the slightest bit personal given that Gomez's love life has been everybody's business ever since she and Justin Bieber finally went their separate ways. While Bieber went ahead and married Hailey Baldwin in a somewhat whirlwind romance and courtship, Gomez has been linked to various men since then.
After dating TheWeeknd and then rumored to be involved with Charlie Puth, there was also talk of Gomez going around with Zayn Malik and Drew Taggart from The Chainsmokers.
It seems Gomez also took inspiration from her own TikToks that she made about being single, as the lyrics go:
I know I'm a little high maintenance
But I'm worth a try
Might not give a reason why
Oh well
We both had a lot of fun
Time to find another one
Blame it all on feelin' young
Here's Gracie telling Selena what she already knows!

Fans Declare, The Queen Is Back!
At the time of writing this article, Gomez's song was only an hour young on YouTube, and it has already racked up 287,000 views, with her pal Miley Cyrus' "Used To Be Young" lagging just slightly behind at 236,000 - also less than an hour old.
Fans not only loved Gomez's song, but they were also happy to see her looking absolutely radiant in the song as she rocked a glittery purple top and then dress.
Comments were super appreciative:
"She looks so radiant and happy. Her charisma is everything. Her voice is so beautiful. You can tell she is in a very good place. I am so happy for our queen"
"Selena gave us another masterpiece! Keep streaming for Selena!"
It is definitely a foot-tapping number as Gomez sings in her signature dulcet tones,
"I'm pickin' out this dress
Tryin' on these shoes
Cause I'll be single soon
I'll be single soon
I know he'll be a mess
When I break the news
But I'll be single soon
I'll be single soon"
The video is also cool as Gomez is shown going about her life as a single girl, catching up with her friend over dinner and drinks before they hit a nightclub and party till dawn. Gomez looks stunning, if slightly curvier than before, even as her smile lights up the screens and warms her fans' hearts!
Here's the foot-tapper that wants us to be single too if just to FEEL the song!
Selena Gomez Sings Her Heart & Intentions Out
With this song, it seems Gomez has made yet another declaration that she's single and okay about it - and all the names she's been recently linked to are nothing but casual dates on her part. In the lyrics, she also declares she's high-maintenance, poking fun at her own TikTok video she made in June!
The video showed her at a football game, draped in blankets and she yelled at the footballers, "I’m single! I’m just a little high maintenance, but I’ll love you so much.”
The Rare Beauty founder captioned the video, “The struggle, man, lol.” One fan wrote, “If I were in earshot of her saying this, I would never have sprinted to someone faster in my life!"
For now, though, it seems Gomez is good and happy being single as fans echoed "She served," "She ate and left no crumbs," and the cutest comment of all, "SEL!!! You did not disappoint! Not my happily married self singing this as loud as I can!!"
