"Modern Loneliness" is the 10th track to be lifted from ~how i’m feeling~, after previous singles "Tattoos Together", "Changes", LANY collaboration "Mean It", "Sims", "fuck, i'm lonely" featuring Anne-Marie, "Sad Forever", "Feelings", Troye Sivan collab "i'm so tired...", and "Drugs & The Internet".
"This is my favorite song on the album and the most important song I feel I’ve ever made," says Lauv. "There is a lot of loneliness out there. We all feel it. But there is also a lot of love waiting for us and I hope this song can be a catalyst for that."
~how i’m feeling~ will feature collaborations with BTS, Alessia Cara, and Sofia Reyes.
Speaking about his debut LP back in October 2019, Lauv said, "I’ve been working on this album for a long time, but today marks the true beginning of the new era. ~how i'm feeling~ is about embracing personality and all its different aspects. I created six different characters represented by purple (existential Lauv), blue (hopeless romantic Lauv), green (goofy Lauv), yellow (positive Lauv), orange (fuckboy Lauv) and red (spicy Lauv™️), all of which make up my identity. While my last project was focused on one aspect of my life, ~how i'm feeling~ is the first time I’m embracing all the parts that make me who I am."
