No, it’s not the great lost Madonna single from 1987. It’s the first single from the new Japanese Breakfast album Jubilee.
Be Sweet is the first taste of a record on which Michelle Zauner has said she ‘never wanted to rest on any laurels’.
“I wanted to push it as far as it could go, inviting more people in and pushing myself as a composer, a producer, an arranger,” Zauner adds.
“After spending the last five years writing about grief, I wanted our follow up to be about joy,” she adds on the track.
“For me, a third record should feel bombastic and so I wanted to pull out all the stops for this one.”
“I wrote Be Sweet with Jack Tatum from Wild Nothing a few years ago. I’ve been holding onto it for so long and am so excited to finally put it out there.”
