British superstar Paloma Faith has released her second single “Bad Woman,” taken from her highly anticipated sixth studio album The Glorification of Sadness via RCA Records. This is the first new song from Paloma since the release of her fifth album Infinite Things in November 2020.
“Bad Woman” is an epic power anthem, following the previously released lead single “How You Leave A Man,” and carrying a message of female empowerment at its very core. The track follows the Brit Award winning singer on a gritty journey of independence.
On the album Paloma comments, “‘The Glorification of Sadness’ is more than an album about relationships. The celebration of finding your way back after leaving a long term relationship, being empowered even in your failures and taking responsibility for your own happiness. It is her most personal album to date, drawing on her own experiences with Paloma acting as the anchor to direct a deeply personal narrative and album.”
Speaking of the song, Paloma says: “This song, ‘Bad Woman,’ stands out as a personal favorite from the album. It delves into the myriad societal challenges women confront, illustrating the exhausting struggle to meet expectations. The pressure to conform or risk being labelled ‘incompetent’ or a ‘Bad Woman’ can be overwhelming. My hope is that women embrace their authenticity, feel comfortable in their own skin, and understand that imperfection is a part of being human. Let’s free ourselves from the societal pressures that label us and encourage each other to stay true to our authentic selves.”
