Mitski Shares “Two Slow Dancers” Single
‘Be The Cowboy’ is out on August 17.
Before Mitski releases her latest album, Be The Cowboy, next week, she drops her new song “Two Slow Dancers,” the album’s outro. The song is a projection of two old lovers reunited and reflecting in the adolescent setting of a school gymnasium.
“They used to have something together that is no longer there and they’re trying to relive it in a dance, knowing that they’ll have to go home and go back to their lives,” Mitski explains.
Be The Cowboy is the follow-up to 2016’s Puberty 2. Since announcing the album, she has shared videos for “Geyser” and lead radio single, “Nobody.”
