Lyrically, “Who’s Sorry Now” represents the common experience where a person feels undervalued and decides to move on, only for their former partner to realize the depth of their mistake when it's too late.

With its upbeat tempo and powerful instrumentation, the track channels the spirit of classic rock while delivering a fresh, modern twist. “Sonically, I wanted the song to be reminiscent of the 70s, which was such an incredible era for music across so many genres,” says songwriter and producer, Russ Soper. “Having lots of big harmonies was important, combined with vintage keyboards that were also so prevalent at the time. I’ve always loved the vibe of an overdriven Wurli - it’s the epitome of the 70s sound. The music is based around that, along with a Clav and B3 for added measure! And Hanz absolutely nails that raspy rock ‘n roll vibe perfectly, like so many of the iconic vocalists of that time.”
