Musician and songwriter extraordinaire RØRY has unveiled an awesome new video for recent single Uncomplicated.

The track originally arrived late last year after RØRY went viral on TikTok, commenting on an Avril Lavigne post that: "It’s 2006, I haven’t dropped out of uni, my mum is still alive, I still talk to my brother, life is uncomplicated and all ahead of me." The reaction online served as inspiration for Uncomplicated, with the huge chorus of 'And now Avril's on the radio / Takes me back to 15 years ago / Just a small town kid with no regrets / ’Cause I ain't dropped out of uni yet' referencing that TikTok comment.

“The song idea started when I commented on Avril’s TikTok teaser for her new single Bite Me, and the comment got over 4,000 likes and loads of comments, so I figured I’d turn it into a song," explains RØRY. "The song then went viral and seemed to really connect with people. It’s about feeling old and lost, and missing the days you were an angsty teen because things were uncomplicated then, even though you didn’t know it.”

Here's a TikTok about it:
