Behind The Song

Alaska wrote “Good For You” during a period of major change in her life, when many things felt uncertain and in transition.

The song took shape after she read a book about a couple who chose to part ways so they could grow individually during their college years.

She felt deeply connected to the story and viewed their decision as a beautiful form of emotional maturity.

In her view, genuine love sometimes shows itself through the courage to let go.

Although the song centers on a romantic relationship, it also mirrors Alaska’s personal journey as a teenager stepping into adulthood.

She wrote the track near the end of her high school years, a time when friendships naturally shifted—some grew closer, while others slowly drifted apart.

Through this experience, she began to see life in a different way.

She realized that life often pushes people to move forward, even when it means leaving behind things that once felt essential.

In those difficult moments, growth quietly begins.

Creative Process from Alaska Sirait

Alaska wrote “Good For You” independently using only the Voice Memos and Notes apps on her phone.

Heston Prasetyo produced the song, while Johanes Abi handled the mastering process.

Musically, the track unfolds with a gentle and honest tone.

It mirrors Alaska’s introspective state of mind, allowing her emotions to feel raw and sincere.

Through its simplicity, the song reveals a deep emotional weight that resonates quietly but powerfully.

Through this release, Alaska hopes listeners can find comfort as they face goodbyes and life changes of their own.

She hopes the song can become a quiet companion for anyone who is learning to let go.

In its softness, it offers comfort during moments of change and uncertainty.

At the same time, it gently reminds listeners that separation is not always an ending.

Sometimes, it is the first step toward becoming a better version of oneself.
