"Lucid" (stylised in all caps) is a song by Japanese-British singer-songwriter Rina Sawayama, released on 25 November 2020 as the sixth overall and first single from the deluxe edition of her debut studio album Sawayama. Sawayama first teased a collaboration with BloodPop on 2 October 2020, Tweeting out "BloodPop X Rina Sawayama Coming Soon" alongside a Polaroid picture with the words "Lucid Mix" written on it.[2]
Background and composition[]
The dance-pop song is about "living a different life through dreaming". It was written by Sawayama and Lauren Aquilina in 2018 on the floor of the singer's apartment from a beat sent to them by BloodPop.[3] The song has been described as "Gaga-esque" and garnered comparisons to her 2020 album Chromatica, also produced by BloodPop.[4][5]
