 Guys, this is
very exciting for me
because I just got the
test copy of my vinyl.
I have an album
coming out tomorrow.
This is the music
I've been waiting
to release for the better
part of the last three years.
I have waited so long to
let you hear this record
and share my heart with you.
I've put a lot of blood,
sweat, and tears into it,
and I can't believe
that it's finally here.
[DIAL TONE]
MALLORY: Hello.
 Hey, Mal, how's it going?
MALLORY: Good.
How are you?
 Oh, good.
Chip and I are just like,
will we sleep ever again?
[LAUGHING]
Normally on release weeks, we
would be traveling all around.
And because of COVID, we
can't do that necessarily.
Look, we have royalty
with us this morning.
We were talking
about the release
if "Heart Theory" and some
exciting things we could do.
So we thought it would be cool
to do a 24-hour live stream.
We'll be live for
24 hours showcasing
timezones around the world.
And I cannot wait.
So we wanted to just
touch base because I'm
going to be live for 24
hours, so I'm not really
going to be able to look at my
phone, or look at Instagram,
or post--
re-post anything.
MALLORY: Right.
Just take over that I'm going
to post for you tomorrow.
And I need eight stories.
 Can we do those
throughout the thing?
Like--
 Yes.
 You know?
 Great idea.
 I'm going to add that
to our run of show.
 Great.
MALLORY: All right.
Perfect.
 I still don't know really
if I've slept enough.
I've been doing so much
amazing press for the album
that I've probably gotten four
or five hours sleep a night.
I'm so tired.
And I need to pull, like,
a 36 hour day because don't
have time to have a nap.
So it's going to be
interesting, guys.
The day that we finish
writing "Hits me,"
I was just obsessed
with the groove.
It just sounded like, that's
the start of the record.
(SINGING) I'm happy
'till it hits me.
We're nothing but history.
And it's too late to
go back there again.
We're better off as friends.
And I can stay distracted
like nothing ever happened.
But that's until it pulls me
under wondering if you miss me.
I'm happy 'till it--
I wrote a record around
the seven stages of grief--
around this process
of me transforming
through this time in my life.
And "Hits Me" is the
first step of the process.
It is like shock.
And so we wrote the song
just from a place of honesty.
I am so good at putting on
a smile and being happy.
But oftentimes, when
I'm going through stuff,
that can just be a cover up of
a lot of things that is really
like going on in here and here.
You can click on the
record, and it loads.
Oh, my gosh.
Guys, the time has come.
"Heart Theory" is available.
This album has been my heart
for the past three years.
And I'm so excited
to share it with you.
It is now yours just
as much as it's mine.
