Courtney Barnett has shared new song ‘Write a List of Things to Look Forward to’ from her upcoming new album, Things Take Time, Take Time, due to be released on November 12th. The track is intended as a love letter to friends and focuses on the joys of friendship. “I found a deeper communication with people in my life – deeper conversations”, Barnett notes of this new phase. “And a new level of gratitude for friendships that had been there for so long that I had maybe taken for granted”. The song sees Barnett explore a deeper level of songwriting and the song title is inspired by a piece of advice given to her by a friend to help lift bouts of unhappiness.
The song is accompanied by a wholesome video that follows Barnett as the sender and recipient of a series of gifts.
