Little Mix Drops Emotional New Single ‘Between Us’
On November 5, Little Mix released their pop ballad ‘Between Us,’ co-written by Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, and Jade Thirwall. The new track is a prelude to the group’s upcoming greatest-hits album, which will share the same title.
Working together with Janée Bennett and Uzoechi Emenike on their newest song, Little Mix, brings us a song about friendship and the unbreakable bond between the girls. The emotional lyrics send an empowering message, and it perfectly sets the tone for the musical trio’s 10th-anniversary celebration.

With lyrics like, “safe to say I’ll stay, I will always stick around,” and “if you’re knocked, I’m your rock,” the group emphasizes their unconditional love and support for each other on and off the stage. With the release of the song, Little Mix also dropped a lyric video depicting highlights of their time together, dating back from 2011 up to the present.
The uplifting lyrics fit the theme of the new album, paying tribute to their previous hits like ‘Sweet Melody’ and ‘Wings’ by name-dropping them throughout the song. Needless to say, this didn’t go unnoticed by fans.
