After a three-year hiatus since the release of her album "Rare," 31-year-old Selena Gomez dropped her new single "Single Soon" and its accompanying music video on August 25th, signaling her return to the music scene. Although her new album "SG3" is still in the works, this song captures her current take on single life. Selena shared on social media, "I know you've all been anticipating my new tracks, so I decided to release this laid-back single first. I hope you all enjoy it."
Selena Gomez – Single Soon Song Introduction
Selena Gomez has made a much-awaited return with her new single, "Single Soon." This captivating track offers a light and joyous interpretation of breakups. Within the song, Gomez, representing the one about to break things off, showcases her anticipation and excitement towards embracing singlehood once more.
In the music video, Gomez humorously chooses to end her relationship with her boyfriend via a post-it note, a nod to an iconic scene from "Sex and the City." She had previously hinted at this easter egg on social media.
As for Gomez's personal life, she has been single for quite some time. The last boyfriend she dated publicly was Justin Bieber, which dates back to 2018. On TikTok, she occasionally makes light-hearted references to her single status.
Despite keeping a low profile, she has had her share of dates. Last November, she indicated that her new music would reflect her experiences during this period. She said, "I've had a personal life entirely my own, and now I feel it's time to share these experiences. This will surely capture everyone's attention and curiosity."
Before the official release of "Single Soon," Gomez teased fans with two Easter eggs from "Sex and the City." One of them was a post-it note with the words "I'm sorry, I can't. Don't hate me." This is a nod to the classic note left by Jack Berger for Carrie Bradshaw in the show. This post-it note was showcased on her Instagram and also made an appearance in the MV.
The other Easter egg was Gomez mimicking a dialogue from the show where Ken informs Samantha Jones that he has decided to reunite with his wife, to which Samantha responds, "Who is this?"
This imitation was shared by Kim Cattrall, who played Samantha, on the X platform (previously known as Twitter), with the caption, "I approve this message…"
Overall, the lyrics of "Single Soon" reflect Gomez's intriguing perspective on contemporary dating. You can read the complete lyrics below and listen to the song.

Selena Gomez – Single Soon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Should I do it on the phone?

Should I leave a little note
