Lily Lane has dropped her latest single, “Domesticated,” a story of redefining what it means to settle down. This track is a page straight out of Lane’s personal diary, full with her inner thoughts and emotions, ready to surrender to love and give up her old habits for new ones. Reflecting on her past, she recognizes that growing roots with her husband has, in fact, provided her more stability in life. With lyrics like, “Guess I lost that east coast edge I was used to / I don’t get fucked up, act dumb ’cause I don’t wanna lose you” and “Suddenly I’m domesticated / Wild woman learning patience,” Lane tells the story of embracing intimacy and the comfort of building a life with someone. Through this song, Lily Lane showcases her transition into the more adult, mature version of herself and is taking listeners along for the journey.
“I used to fear domesticity. Not because it wasn’t for me, but because I was afraid of missing out, afraid that settling down meant losing something. The truth is, that fear came from not being fully sure of who I was or who I was with. Now, I see it differently. I don’t embrace it because I have to, I embrace it because I want to.” – Lily Lane
With her husband, Quinn Hawking, having shot the single’s cover art, the creation of “Domesticated” from start to finish is a very special ode to the artist’s new era of life. Lily Lane’s musical journey flourished after graduating with honors from NYU’s Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music. Known for her powerhouse vocals, often compared to Amy Winehouse’s grit and Demi Lovato’s range, Lane infuses her music with messages of body positivity and LGBTQ representation. As a songwriter who pens 100% of her lyrics, her work has been featured on major TV shows like Freeform’s Pretty Little Liars and Netflix’s Get Organized. Lane has also garnered praise from outlets such as Nylon, Just Jared, EARMILK, CelebMix, The Knockturnal, and Curves.
