Paramore has finally released a new song after taking time off to relax and be with friends and family.  Hayley Williams explained the hiatus saying, “The lessons have been endless and they’ve been so different than any of the lessons I learned from living on the road, doing Paramore 24/7/365… “I know that I would not be ready to give myself back to the band and the music and the life that I love so much had we not voluntarily given it up for a season.”

Addressing the fans, Hayley said, “For all of that, on behalf of all of us, I want to say thank you for being so loving and supportive of us as humans first.  The music industry is not a human-first industry.  It’s not even a music-first industry.  Look, we don’t even live in a human-first society!!!!!!!!!  So choosing to walk away for a spell simply for our own sanity was not an ill-considered concept.”

Wise words for all of us existing in a non-human-first world.  Take time for your sanity!!
