Background and composition

[edit]

On 7 September 2023, Larsson announced the song through her social media.[2] The singer revealed that the track is about relationships in your life that would make you "put everything on them".[3] Leaving open the fact whether it talks about a "platonic relationship", the love to a family member or a lover, it revolves around someone that brings "pure joy".[4] Upon release, Larsson dedicated the song to her sister Hanna.[5] "On My Love" was described as an "Ibiza-ready anthem tinged with Swedish melancholy".[6] The song was described as a "dance-pop anthem".[7]

It is composed in a key of B-flat minor and has a tempo of 123 beats per minute.

Music video

[edit]

An accompanying music video, directed by duo Mutant and co-directed by Larsson herself, was released on 15 September and constitutes an "ode" to the close relationship Larsson shares with her sister.[5] The video starts out with a young Larsson introducing her sister who then appears wearing a cycling helmet. The visuals later move to the present day and feature the sisters riding motorbikes and going for a swim with friends.[8]
