Hilary Duff finally returned to the music business with the release of her long awaited comeback track, "Chasing the Sun," and its accompanying music video. "Chasing the Sun" is the first cut off of Duff's upcoming fifth studio album. Due out in the coming months, the record, has an "earthy, indie-pop vibe," will be the multihyphenate's first in seven years! Are you in serious need of a summer getaway? Well, cue up the 26-year-old's new video as Duff opts for some good, silly fun and spends her hours imagining herself in her beloved sun.
"I took a break from music for quite awhile, but it gave me the power to choose my next steps carefully and I'm really proud of the album I've made," Duff said of her comeback via a press release. "'Chasing The Sun' is a light and fun summer song that I hope helps people to feel a little more carefree." The upbeat, catchy tune, co-written by Colbie Caillat, has a beachy, summery lilt and tells you to go with the flow, live life to the fullest and all those other sun-soaked cliches. It shows a more mature side to the singer, without completely abandoning her roots.
Backed by a simple guitar strum, the breezy return to form recalls Metamorphosis-era HilDuff at her most earnest and summer-iest. As suggested in recent interviews, the reggae-infused, straight-outta-2003 song steers clear of the electronic/dance sound of 2007's "Dignity," instead diving into folkier-type territory. "I'm chasing the sun/ Won't miss out on the fun/ Gotta get it while our hearts are young," the former Lizzie McGuire actress repeatedly crooning across the cheerful pop track.
The sunny visuals for the single are equally bubbly. It shows Duff as a frustrated office worker who fantasizes about the outside world - a sunny getaway. her daydreaming takes her to a sandy beach where she frolics in a bikini while lying in the sand and getting a sun-screened rubdown from a hot male companion she spots in the pages of a magazine. Eventually, she begins to re-enact her daydreams in real life, causing havoc between the other office workers. After a freak accident almost leads to her throwing a hamster ball with the hamster in it, she ends up being fired and taking her stuff back home.
