Listen: Tom Odell - Butterflies feat. AURORA

British singer-songwriter teams up with Norwegian artist for new single of ethereal & emotional stripped back pop.

Featuring two incredibly tender and elegant contemporary voices, Tom Odell’s new single Butterflies alongside fellow singer-songwriter AURORA is a slice of emotional aural bliss, picking up where Odell’s 2022 album Best Day of My Life left off.

A stripped back affair that showcases the pairs abilities as songwriters and vocalists, Butterflies opens with some gorgeous laughter before the wistful piano melody takes over and the pair find themselves in divine duet, their voices in heavenly harmonies as the simple piano builds in complexity and tension.

Talking about the track, Tom said: "I have been a fan of Aurora and her music for many years and it was a dream come true to make this song together. It’s a song about spending the day with somebody you really like and at the end of the day having to say goodbye to them, not knowing if you will ever see them again, but being happy for the experience regardless."

Take two minutes and have a moment with Butterflies.
