Today, the Toronto collective Broken Social Scene dropped the track called Hey Amanda.
The song serves as the second single from the band’s upcoming sixth album, Remember The Humans, out May 8, 2026 via Arts & Crafts.
“Hey Amanda” feels like a classic throwback to the band’s signature sound, with multiple members sharing vocal duties and blending together in that familiar Broken Social Scene fashion.
At the same time, the track carries a more mature and melancholic tone, reflecting the band’s evolution while still holding onto the sweeping, communal energy that longtime fans will instantly recognize.
About the track by Broken Social Scene:
“Hey Amanda,” is an anthemic expression of youthful rebellion through melodic refrains, memorable lyricism, and the brash, beautiful punctuation of the sprawling group’s many voices.
The track exemplifies the evolution of Broken Social Scene: a band deepening rather than reinventing, exploring the emotional implications of forms they have spent 25 years shaping.
The band shared, “this is a song about being yourself, and how people will always question that.”
