MØ releases surprise EP and new single ‘When I Was Young’ (Report)

Danish singer MØ has released a surprise EP, ‘When I Was Young’.

Earlier this evening, MØ, real name Karen Marie Ørsted, debuted her new single of the same name on Beats 1.

The new track has been teased on social media over the past few days with cover art featuring Ørsted holding a red rose against a dreamy millennial pink and cream backdrop.

Now she has followed up the release with a full EP of six tracks.

In a press release, MØ said, “Making the EP has been such a nice flashback experience because I forgot about the little things; how you put the songs together, the lyrics, the song titles and the artwork,” she explains. “Just being in the bubble of that energy is so fucking awesome. It’s so amazing to be able to create a universe.”

Her track with Major Lazer and DJ Snake, ‘Lean On, has been viewed 2.2 billion times on YouTube.
