Hayley Williams Hand Delivers New Song “My Limb” For Fan To Leak
Hayley Williams released quite a bit of music last year, including her sprawling solo debut Petals For Armor, EP tracks like “Find Me Here,” and a smattering of quarantine covers by artists including Radiohead, Björk, SZA, Phoebe Bridgers, Dua Lipa, Tegan And Sara, and Massive Attack. And although the buzz suggests Williams is diverting her attention back to Paramore for now, she isn’t done dropping solo music. In fact, she dropped some off at a fan’s house just last night.
On her Instagram story, Williams showed herself delivering a Sanctuary candle and a CD of a new song called “My Limb” to Carly Butler, a big fan of hers in their shared home base of Nashville. In what was dubbed a celebration of last night’s Wolf Moon, Williams dressed up her dog Alf in a cape and nervously left the disc at Butler’s home. An understandably enthused Butler shared a snippet of the song on her Twitter, and the whole thing is up on YouTube now. “Did hayley williams drive to your house and drop off a candle and a cd with her new song on it or are you having a normal night,” Butler tweeted, among other low-key freakouts. Fun stuff!
The “My Limb” YouTube uploads comes from a different Williams fan, who writes:
Kazi here (yes, the guy that made the flowersforvasesofficial account and launched WWIII within the Paramore community). Hayley Williams asked fans to leak her song because she doesn’t care about sales or promo. This song is called “My Limb” and it will probably be available on Spotify soon. This may be the lead single for an upcoming album.
