Asher Angel's 'Alternate Ending' Marks a Bold New Direction

Asher Angel has finally delivered his long-teased single Alternate Ending, and it’s everything we’ve been wishing for. Along with the single, he released a music video, marking his return after a 4-year hiatus on his YouTube channel.

Alternate Ending is a track from his upcoming album that he’s been working on for a while now. He’s also shifting his style, venturing more into country music than before.

In the context of this song, the “alternate ending” represents the kind of resolution to a relationship that most people wish for but rarely get. After going through a tough breakup, he uses this song as his way of confronting reality.

Alternate Ending comes with a new music video, Asher’s first in four years, since he released his collaboration with CMC$ titled Nobody But You. The sound of Nobody But You is quite different from Alternate Ending, leaning more into electronic and modern sounds.

Last year, he released three singles — Love Drunk, Flip the Switch, and Lately. With the album now in the works, let’s hope we’ll get an update on it soon!
