Jenny Palacios Returns with New Song “Took”
Toronto-based indie pop singer-songwriter Jenny Palacios returned with a new song “Took” on February 28, 2025.
The song is her first music in two years since the 2023 song “Natalie's Advice”.
The track is a reflection of her realization that constantly seeking validation online was taking a toll on her sense of self. The song delves into the suffocating feeling of being influenced by people she’s never met, and the unrealistic standards of appearance and behaviour dictated by social media.
She co-wrote the song with producer Adam Cichocki. The accompanying music video was produced and edited by Jenny Palacios.
Jenny Palacios said of the song, “This was the moment I realized I might have a bad relationship with the internet. All these people I don’t know, all these things I have to buy to feel worthy, how I’m meant to act, how to move, how to look, think or talk as an artist online. I mean, I’ve been in bands from a young age, posting online all throughout and only at this point of reflection did I clue into like—being close to all of this, trying to get noticed might be costing me who I am. It’s suffocating.”- Photo by Jordy Clarke
