Here is my new single “This Is Not Forever”.
I wrote the song about six months ago, before all… this... happened. It’s about watching someone very close to you starting fall into a depression, and wanting to let them know that you’re there for them, in a very serious way.
Listening to it in these changed times, I feel it even more deeply than I did before. It seems like the right time to put it out.
The video, directed by Christiaan Van Vuuren, sees dancers trade the stage for their living rooms and backyards, both in isolation and connected motion. Each of the dancers were shot at home on their phone, under movement direction by choreographer Lucas Jervies.
I think it says something beautiful and profound about the ways we are finding each other, and staying connected, during an extraordinary period in our lives.
I hope you like “This Is Not Forever”….

Hope you’ve been going okay and coping - by whatever means necessary - during this very weird period in our lives. I’ve been writing and recording music since returning from Eurovision and I’m thrilled to let you know that THIS IS NOT FOREVER is my new single, coming out this Thursday 28 May. It’s the first taste of my new album which I’m so excited for you to hear, but more on that later. For now, you can pre-save THIS IS NOT FOREVER here: katemillerheidke.lnk.to/tinfIG

I recently put out a new song called ‘Ernie’ about my son. You may have seen me perform some of it on Australian Story, who made a beautiful little video for it (below).
Having a kid for the first time is an incredible rush of emotions. There’s elation, despair, gratitude, guilt, sorrow, hilarity and love. Ernie’s father and I wrote the song about that onslaught of often contradictory feelings. One minute you are on the verge of collapse, and the next you will be weeping tears of joy. It’s a very concentrated experience and it’s completely relentless. In the middle of it all is the child, this living, breathing miracle. You keep pinching yourself.
All the things they tell you about having a kid are true, but nothing can ever prepare you for it (which of course, they tell you too).
