    loveoleglove releases “This Is Our Secret”

    “This Is Our Secret” is the 20th release from loveoleglove and was released on September 4, 2026.

    The track begins with a conversation between two people. One asks the other to come along and trust them, without explaining what lies ahead. The song then follows the other person’s response as curiosity develops into trust and wonder.

    What they see, hear or experience is never identified. Instead, the song focuses on the act of sharing something deeply personal with someone close. The unnamed experience leaves room for the listener to interpret the moment in their own way.

    The closing lines — “Don’t tell anyone. This is our secret. Yours and mine.” — frame the song as a reflection on intimacy, trust and the way an individual experience can become shared between two people.

    “This is our secret” is available on streaming platforms.
