Lucas Nord's Tunes Get Pretty and Moody in "Don't Need Your Love"

Real emotions combine with real catchiness.

Lucas Nord is a singer out of Sweden who combines his steady, versatile voice with totally danceable beats. His newest single "Don't Need Your Love" defines what makes his lyrics so engaging, digging deep into real emotional weight and feeling. Nord's voice lends itself perfectly to the track, managing to be an engaging presence while not overshadowing the rest of the song's production. It offers a really smooth, immaculate beat complete with vocal samples that compliment Nord's own register. It's honest, but never at the sake of making a snoozer of a track.

Of the song, Lucas said the following:

"Don’t Need Your Love" is one of those tracks that just came about super quickly. Me and Hampus Lindvall (Icona Pop/ Zara Larsson) had our first session together and we pretty much had it written in like 15 minutes. Everything just happened super naturally and really fell into place. The track has the same theme as pretty much every track on my new album - you feel something but you’re not getting it back from the other person and you're fed up with it.

"Don't Need Your Love" comes out tomorrow, February 26 worldwide. You can buy the track then on iTunes and stream on Spotify.
