Conan Gray has released his second single of 2023.
Winner, the follow-up to his spring track Never Ending Song, is a piano-led ballad that ricochets between pared-back verses and grandiose rock choruses. The track boasts production by the multi-Grammy Award-winner Greg Kurstin. Introducing it, Gray said:
“I wrote this song at 2am. everything at the piano just spilled out all at once. it was a moment where I finally felt like, "fine. great job. you did it. you hurt me more than anybody ever could hurt me." and it oddly felt nice. I see now that there is a certain freedom that comes from recognizing that you’ve been hurt. in no longer running, and just facing the fact that “you win. you hurt me." I hope this song helps people find a little piece of that freedom.”
The California-born singer-songwriter put out his latest album, 'Superache', in 2022.
