Daniel Seavey’s new era has begun. At the beginning of the week, he released a song titled “Eden”. Hundreds of Daniels fans have already heard this song after seeing him on tour. He had been teasing it on his Instagram and TikTok for weeks. Now that the song is out, people online are calling it a banger and the summer.
“Eden” is an upbeat track dedicated to the people who stayed by Seavey’s side when he lost track of his identity in the music industry and life. In a recent Instagram post, he said, “I lost touch with who I was. Now it’s all coming back. This song is for the ones who helped me remember. Thank you for bringing me back to life. This song is yours 
”
The rhythm and positive instrumental background are not the only things that stand out about “Eden.” Daniel’s lyricism is also one of the highlights of the track. He is known for writing some of the most beautiful and uplifting songs inspired by his darkest memories, including those during and after Why Don’t We’s lawsuit. “With a touch enough to heal me / And a kiss enough to make me stay, / Oh, it hurts enough to kill me / ‘Cause I know I could be better.”
For those who may not know much about Daniel’s personal life, this song is inspired by his girlfriend, Kat Castellano, though he has shared online that it is also about other people. Still, the romantic lyrics suggest it is ultimately about finding someone who stood by him through his darkest moments and losing himself. This is not the first time he has explored themes of love in his music—during his Dancing in the Dark era, Seavey wrote similar songs about falling in love and feeling like he was losing himself in the process.
This song is a reminder that people are there for you when you cannot figure out who you are or your way back to a safe place on your own.
You can listen to “Eden” on all streaming platforms now.
