LA-based Alt-R&B artist Madeleine Rauch explores the emotional exhaustion of heartbreak in her deeply relatable new single “On My Mind.”
“On My Mind” is a raw and honest track that delves into the emotional toll of an on-and-off situationship. With its vulnerable vocals and muffled piano introduction, the song immediately draws listeners into the heartache and frustration that comes from navigating a relationship marked by inconsistent communication.
Drawing from personal experience, Rauch captures the weariness that heartbreak can bring. “I think the difference to other songs about this topic is that I really tried to focus on how extremely exhausting emotional turmoil and healing is, be it heartbreak, grief, or whatever you’re going through,” Rauch reflects.
Produced by Josh Jacobson (Laufey) and Jordan Sherman (One Republic), “On My Mind” evolves from a calm, reflective verse to a powerful, energetic chorus, featuring arpeggiated bass and layered vocal harmonies reminiscent of artists like H.E.R. and Nao. The track offers a relatable story for anyone who has struggled with the emotional aftermath of a breakup.
Following the success of her previous single “When You Look At Me,” which garnered over 2 million Spotify streams and praise from Medium, Madeleine has released the official music video for “On My Mind”.
