Courtney Barnett has released “Write A List Of Things To Look Forward To”, the latest single from her forthcoming album, Things Take Time, Take Time. The third, full-length studio offering from the Australian singer-songwriter is out on November 12th via Mom+Pop Music/Marathon Artists.

“Write A List Of Things To Look Forward To” further advances the new artistic image Barnett has presented throughout the Things Take Time, Take Time singles. The previews thus far have shown a new, happier side to the songwriter that stands as a contrast to some of the angstier, more dour leanings of previous works. The new single serves as an ode to friendship and friends alike, as the Christina Xing-directed video highlights the simple joys of a letter from a friend as Barnett both sends and receives small tokens of appreciation.

The song’s title comes from the name of a technique one of Barnett’s friends suggested to get her out of a depressive state.

“I found a deeper communication with people in my life – deeper conversations”, Barnett said of the technique’s application to her life. “And a new level of gratitude for friendships that had been there for so long that I had maybe taken for granted”.
