About This Track
'It Gets Dark' by Sigrid is a 2022 pop track from the album 'How To Let Go'. The lyrics cast the singer in a drifting, slightly unhinged register, reaching for escape and distance, with talk of feeling too high and wanting to go to space. There is a sense of looking out past the usual limits, leaving the familiar behind, and arriving at a new threshold where it gets dark, after going far away from home, and realising she knows something more.
"It Gets Dark" is a single by Sigrid, from the album How To Let Go, released 5th May 2022. The track is 3:24 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about Sigrid.

Sigrid’s 2022 special edition did more than append bonus tracks: its acoustic companion recast How To Let Go around the songwriting she made with long-time collaborator Askjell.

Gigs can be really bloody special places. It feels like such an obvious statement; the months of build-up, that excitement as it draws nearer, the moment you turn the corner and see your favourite’s name up in lights. Tonight is all about one thing, and that’s the show ahead. A feeling of real life
Once you pop...
With the release of her 'Don't Kill My Vibe' EP earlier this year, Sigrid introduced herself as a pop sensation. Performing on Reading Festival's Dance Stage the Scandinavian artist breathes fresh life into the hype. Sugar sweet vocals hypnotise the crowd, never more so than in the set's single stripped back number. The real power here, however, lies in the songs' addictive pop punch. This is music with weight, an energy and motion destined to command, and the gathered crowd are powerless to stop it - not that anyone here wants to. Feel good almost to an extreme, it's a performance made to marvel in. So that's exactly what the audience do. Giving themselves in to the music, the energy builds with every bouncing riff. Dancing around the stage with an effortless grace, basking in the moment entirely, there's every sense that this is what Sigrid was born to do.
How do you define a superstar? We've tried many different variations (I mean it's kinda our jobs y'know) but really, it's all about a feeling. A moment in time which you can point to and say "Yes - this is the real deal" and every other description can go to…
