William Black enters a bold new era with “Waiting On This Day Forever,” an emotionally charged collaboration featuring rising alt-pop vocalist Siberia and Swedish indie-pop powerhouse Freja The Dragon. Out May 9 via Lost In Dreams, the single marks the second release from William’s forthcoming album, offering a stirring glimpse into what promises to be his most personal and expansive work yet.
Built on a haunting piano motif and wrapped in icy synths, “Waiting On This Day Forever” gives space for Freja The Dragon’s chilling vocals to cut through with cinematic clarity. Her voice lands like a quiet confession before the track explodes into a stunning drop—one that fuses William Black’s signature melodic dubstep with rich, atmospheric depth. Every element is meticulously placed, from the thunderous basslines to the lingering reverbs, forging a soundscape that balances pain and hope in equal measure.
William Black calls it his most refreshing work yet:
“‘Waiting on This Day Forever’ is my favorite song I’ve ever made. It feels like a breath of fresh air—like I’m reconnecting with the sound that inspired me to start making music in the first place.”
Freja The Dragon, who co-wrote the song with David Björk, reflects on the collaboration:
“Happy to be a part of this. David and I wrote it together, and I think it turned out really well. It might not sound exactly like my usual music, but it was a lot of fun—a truly emotional gem!”
The release follows the success of William’s lead single “Save Me,” which quickly crossed 170K streams and received major radio support from Illenium, Prysm Radio, and Dance One. Known for his emotionally charged catalog and collaborations with names like SLANDER and Illenium, William is also hitting major stages in 2025 including Starbase, Beyond Wonderland Chicago, Dreamland, and Lost In Dreams Festival.
Freja The Dragon (aka Freja Drakenberg) brings a lush indie-pop aesthetic shaped by her work with Peter Bjorn and John and a solo career grounded in cinematic storytelling. Meanwhile, Siberia injects the track with a modern alt-pop sharpness, adding edge to the song’s emotional undercurrent.
“Waiting On This Day Forever” is a sonic evolution for William Black—an expansive, emotionally layered track that elevates his melodic bass vision into something cinematic, honest, and raw. With Siberia and Freja The Dragon beside him, it’s a striking signal of what’s to come.
