About this song
"Better" is ZAYN's first and only release of 2020 and the lead single from his third studio album, Nobody Is Listening. It is his first major release since his second studio album, Icarus Falls, came out in December 2018. The chorus interpolates Kasey Cisyk's 1997 song "You Light Up My Life." The song surfaced through a song repertoire two days before its release on September 23, 2020, and ZAYN confirmed it hours later with video teases and a link to the music video.
What it's about
The song hints at ZAYN's lover, model Gigi Hadid, and touches on giving second chances and finding a way back to love.
