Ben Keatt. The 24-year-old multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter has now shared his long-awaited single, "Lifetime." The same track that caught fans in snapshotted pieces on TikTok arrives in complete form, swelling as a wave of emotion and heartfelt embrace.
"Lifetime" wasn't born from some slick studio session. It began with a chorus line, which Keatt took to the world via social media, allowing an audience into his songwriting process in its most fragile form. The reaction was both swift and stunning. His comments were filled with fans begging for a full release. And now, months later, their patience has paid off in the form of a track that not only lives up to expectations but exceeds them.
"Lifetime" is a love song, but not in the traditional sense. It's about all love, she says, not just romantic love, such as platonic love, fleeting love, and lasting love. But more than that, it's about the specific kind of love worthy of holding onto. Love that's shared, reciprocal, respectful, and right.
