Harmonize’s soulful voice paired with Nkosazana Daughter’s captivating vocals creates a melancholic yet empowering track about finding your own way after a heartbreak. The song opens with a young Harmonize reminiscing about the early days of a love that was too good to be true. He recalls his mother’s cautionary words, “It’s too early for you to fall in love,” but he was blinded by his affection.
Despite his mother’s warnings, Harmonize fell head over heels, convinced that this love was his “glory,” his “one and only.” However, as the lyrics unfold, it becomes clear that the relationship was not meant to be. Harmonize finds himself single again, heartbroken but not defeated.
The chorus, with its repetitive “I’m single” refrain, is both a declaration of independence and a lament for lost love. Harmonize is no longer blinded by infatuation; he is now aware of his own worth and is determined to find happiness on his own terms.
Nkosazana Daughter‘s verse adds a layer of depth and emotion to the song. She sings about the emptiness and loneliness that come with heartbreak, but she also speaks to the resilience of the human spirit. “Maybe this love not for me,” she muses, but she ultimately finds solace in her own strength and independence.
“Single Again” is a powerful reminder that heartbreak is a part of life, but it does not have to define us. We can choose to embrace our singlehood and find happiness in our own company. As Harmonize sings, “I’m single again, who knows am single?” We are our own keepers, and we can find our own way, even when love doesn’t go as planned.
