"Out Loud" on YouTube |
"Out Loud" is the debut single of American Internet personality and singer Gabbie Hanna, independently released for digital download on September 6, 2017, as her debut single. It was written by Hanna and Bruce Wiegner, with production solely handled by the latter. The lyrics of the track, a ballad, have been described as emotive. They discuss themes of loss, loneliness and heartbreak. They were inspired by the poems featured in Hanna's 2017 book Adultolescence.
Upon its release, "Out Loud" was met with mixed reviews from music critics, who argued over the track's quality. An accompanying music video was uploaded to Hanna's YouTube channel on October 18, 2017. The visual features her reminiscing memories of her love interest before attending his funeral in a "major plot twist". Commercially, the track attained moderate success on record charts, reaching number 47 on the Scottish Singles Chart and number 30 on Billboard's Digital Songs chart, among others in 2017. For promotion, the singer performed "Out Loud" live at the 2017 and 2018 VidCon events in Australia.
