In her new single, “Kissing Other People,” Lennon comes to the calming realization that she’s over her past relationships. It represents the relieving instance where you notice the disappearance of past love and acknowledge your openness to new experiences.

“Kissing Other People” is an easy and relaxed pop song that showcases Lennon’s beautiful vocal abilities. Although the song is laidback, the single cover artwork is the opposite of breezy. On the cover, we see Lennon lit by a moody red light with a black background. Although the stark visual contrasts the overall vibe of “Kissing Other People,” it represents Lennon’s confidence that shines through. Through the lyrics, we can see Lennon’s concrete sense of self and strength to move on. It’s a great introduction for anyone who might not be familiar with her music.

It’s the remission of guilt from a past relationship that you used to carry with you at all times. It’s a feeling of freedom and excitement for the future.
“Kissing Other People” represents a new chapter for Lennon Stella. It invites new fans into her world and could catapult her into new success.
