Listen to this when
If you're tired of saying you're fine when you're not, this one's for you. 🌊
The song names a very specific exhaustion: feeling that the people around you only want to hear good news, so you hide how you really feel.
"Good News" is a song by Mac Miller, co-written and co-produced with Jon Brion, released in January 2020 as the lead single from Circles, the album Miller was working on at the time of his death in 2018 and intended as a companion to Swimming. Brion completed the track by building instrumentation around Miller's sparse demo.
