In the video, Moore appears alone, performing the song through a series of gorgeous vignettes, including a pool and sepia-toned room.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, Moore revealed the inspiration for the song. \u201cI think everyone\u2019s had the experience of feeling lost and not quite understanding how you\u2019ve found yourself at a certain point in your life. And I think the key is not to judge yourself for that. I\u2019m a big believer in the idea that what you\u2019ve journeyed through is ultimately going to factor into the person you become, and how you\u2019ll greet whatever big challenge you face next.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Moore hasn\u2019t revealed further details on what will be her first album since 2009\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Amanda Leigh<\/em>. Since then, Moore\u2019s music has been mostly tied to soundtracks for her acting projects, including 2010\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Tangled<\/em> and her hit show&nbsp;<em>This Is Us<\/em>, for which she covered Linda Ronstad\u2019s \u201cWillin&#8217;\u201d in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea of diving back into music after so much time and personal change was really intimidating to me for a while,\u201d she said in a statement. \u201cBut then I finally realized: I\u2019m the only person who can make this move. It all has to start with me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>This Is Us<\/em> will return for its fourth season later this month. She will also appear in the action film&nbsp;<em>Midway<\/em> alongside Nick Jonas, Woody Harrelson and Dennis Quaid later this year.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/mandy-moore-new-song-when-i-wasnt-watchin-885060\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mandy Moore has returned to pop with her first new song in a decade, \u201cWhen I Wasn\u2019t Watchin\u2019.\u201d The single is the first off a forthcoming full-length album.
