"Clarity" is a song by Australian singer-songwriter Vance Joy, released on 8 April 2022[1] through Liberation Music as the third single from Joy's third studio album, In Our Own Sweet Time.
According to a press release, Joy wrote it over Zoom with Joel Little shortly after a Halloween party.[2]
At the 2022 ARIA Music Awards, the song was nominated for Best Pop Release and Song of the Year.[3]
At the APRA Music Awards of 2023, the song was shortlisted for Song of the Year.[4]
Ellie Robinson from NME said "The new track adds a world of depth to the folky indie-pop slant of Joy's earlier material, supplementing his cool and cruisy acoustic strumming with deep bass grooves, crisp and low-key, yet duly impactful drums and a soaring horn section."[2]
