Meet Micaela Young — a singer-songwriter from Tulsa, Oklahoma, who doesn’t just make music; she tells stories that immediately pull you into her world.
Young’s latest single, “11:59,” is lyrically profound, tasteful, and deeply moving — an uplifting and relatable track that showcases her raw honesty.
“I used to kind of want to die, but now I want to live forever,” she sings to open the song — a gut-punch of a line delivered over atmospheric acoustic guitar. It’s enchanting, reflective, and achingly truthful.
“How lucky am I? To see another 11:59. How lucky am I to see another day turn into night?”
If the lyrics don’t grab you, the thoughtful guitar provides a warm backbone that perfectly supports them. It’s hard not to fall in love with Young’s delivery, but ultimately, it’s the lyrics that steal the show from the very first note.
