"Single Soon" is a song by American singer Selena Gomez. It was released as a standalone single on August 25, 2023, through Interscope Records. The track was produced by Benny Blanco and Cashmere Cat.[1] Musically, it is a synth-driven[2] dance song.[3] The song peaked within the top twenty in Bulgaria, Canada, the Czech Republic, Ireland, Latvia, Norway, Paraguay, Poland, Slovakia and the US Billboard Hot 100.

Background

In February 2023, Gomez first spoke about her upcoming musical output, saying, that it is "about real things that I'm walking through" and described it as "really powerful, strong, very pop".[4] She further confirmed working on new music in May 2023.[5] On August 13, 2023, fans spotted posters with the question "Single Soon?" with a phone number attached to them.[6] When dialing the number, a voicemail greeting can be heard to "never worry about boyfriends at all".[7] The posters also pointed to a website called "illbesinglesoon.com" with the bottom of the page displaying links to Gomez's social media and newsletter.[8]

On August 17, after numerous fan speculations, Gomez eventually announced the single on her social media and revealed its cover art, which features her "posing in the backseat of a car with a glamorous fur jacket".[1][9] Limited edition 7-inch vinyls of the song were made available to preorder,[10] along with its pre-save on streaming platforms.[11] In an accompanying statement, she stated that "Single Soon" is just "a fun little song I wrote a while back" and that she is not "quite done with" her upcoming fourth studio album.[11]

On September 14, 2023, the song was removed from streaming platforms and digital stores temporarily, before returning to its uploaded state after a few hours.[12]
