Gomez co-wrote the song with Julia Michaels, Michael Pollack, Tejada and Jordan K. Johnson and Stefan Johnson of The Monsters & Strangerz. It marks Gomez’s first release of 2024 and follows “Single Soon,” a carefree ode to independence produced by the Only Murders in the Building star’s now boyfriend, musician Benny Blanco.

Gomez first announced “Love On” last week, sharing the song’s chic cover art and release date on Instagram. “Wait till I turn my love on,” she captioned the post.
Later, the 31-year-old singer-actress unveiled a short teaser for the track’s music video, which also premiered Thursday. In the snippet, Gomez cuddled with a puppy as a group of couples made out nearby, leaving her out of the mix.
“Qu’est-ce que je vais te nommer? Je vais te nommer. L’amour … L’amour tendre,” a French voice-over said during the clip, a message that translates to: “What shall I name you? I’m gonna name you the love … the tender love.”
Both “Love On” and “Single Soon” — which debuted at No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100 — are expected to appear on Gomez’s upcoming fourth album, which the Rare Beauty founder has not yet announced. She has, however, confirmed that a new LP is in the works, telling Vanity Fair in February that her follow-up to 2020’s Rare will be “really powerful, strong, very pop.”
She added, “The theme generally is freedom — freedom from relationships, freedom from the darkness.”
