Pale Waves share a further slice of forthcoming sophomore album Who Am I? today. 'You Don't Own Me' continues the Y2K revival with racing, pop-punk riffs and the catchiest of catchy vocal hooks. 

Politically-charged and packaged up in a pop song to bop to, 'You Don't Own Me' is a statement of self. "I'll be whoever I want to...you'd better get out of my way" frontwoman Heather Baron-Gracie sings, targeting judgemental folks who try to push their own standards onto others...

"This song is incredibly important to me and I wanted to represent my own experiences. I also wanted to say a fuck you to everyone that plays by these fake delusional rules that women and gender need to fit inside a specific box.” Baron-Gracie said.

The track follows previous releases 'Easy', 'She's My Religion' and 'Change'.
