LP’s new single “One Last Time” arrived last week with a stylish video shot at L.A.’s historic Paramour Estate and featuring Jaime King as the singer’s paramour.

The single is another of LP’s outsized pop anthems, this one lamenting the transience of relationships, and another tease for her forthcoming album (no details yet), which will include her 2020 hits “The One That You Love” and “How Low Can You Go.” “‘One Last Time’ is about the fleeting nature of relationships, romantic or otherwise, and how every moment is precious,” she says of the tune, in Athens, Greece and San José del Cabo, Mexico, with longtime collaborator Mike Del Rio, with an assist from LP’s live guitarist Alex Feder. “No matter how little or much we get of someone we find ourselves fantasizing about the past with them and the things we wished we’d said or done before our time together was through.”

The video was directed by Stephen “Norswrthy” Schofield, originally known for his work in the photo duo LOWFIELD for the likes of Halsey, Pharrell and Taylor Swift, among others. “When the opportunity presented to shoot this video I had to say yes — not only because it involved all of my close friends, but also the song struck such a visual and visceral chord within me,” Schofield says. “The overarching theme echoes a fragility of life sentiment, and that in the blink of an eye everything can be taken away. Personally, one of the hardest things to swallow regarding tragedy is that in the end, life goes on. The party continues. The only thing that changes is that you — we — are all called at some point to leave that ‘party,’ regardless of if we are ready to go or not.”
