Chelsea Cutler’s latest release, “I Was In Heaven,” brings heartbreak into sharp focus, turning a painful period into something deeply personal. Released on December 6th as the fourth promotional single from her upcoming debut album “How To Be Human,” the song carries an intimate quality rooted in emotional honesty. Cutler kept the original demo vocals from when she wrote it, preserving the raw feeling of that moment instead of distancing the finished recording from its origins. That choice gives the track an especially close character.
The music video, directed by Martin Landgreve, adds another visual layer. Together, the music and video create a portrait of heartbreak that feels personal rather than distant. Keeping the original vocals makes the emotional experience feel immediate, allowing the listener to sense the honesty behind the writing. As the fourth preview of “How To Be Human,” “I Was In Heaven” also strengthens anticipation for Cutler’s debut album by showing an artist willing to stay close to complicated feelings. The song does not hide its pain; it lets that feeling shape the experience. That rawness becomes its greatest strength, making “I Was In Heaven” feel sincere, exposed, and emotionally immediate while giving the upcoming album another compelling piece.
