All the best pop songs find the balance between euphoria and heartbreak - Robyn's Dancing On My Own, Rihanna's We Found Love, La Roux's Bulletproof and now E^ST's Life Goes On.

The anthemic, bounding pop song is all about one door closing and another one opening, delivered with E^ST's pure, rousing vocals.

"The song is about realising and accepting that most of the relationships in our lives are temporary, yet at the same time not quite being able to let go of someone from the past," E^ST told us about the song, adding that the subject matter came to her as an epiphany.

"I found myself in Oxford with my friend Jim, and he started playing around with some chords, and I immediately knew what I needed to write about."

It's her first solo offering for the year and follows on from 2016's Get Money EP.
