"Kiss You Anyway" is a song by Australian singer Dami Im. The song was released on 3 January 2020[1] as the second single from her sixth studio album, My Reality (2021). Im said on social media, "'Kiss You Anyway' is a song where I used the most imagery in the lyrics and it is so special to me."[2]

The song did not enter the ARIA top 100, but debuted at number 12 on the Australian Independent chart.[3]

On 6 November 2020, a Korean language version was released.[4]

Reception

[edit]

Nick van Lith from ESCXtra said "The power is still there, but in a completely different way. Instead of big vocals and impressive high notes, it's now the mystery and instrumentation that does the trick for the 31-year old singer. Her latest single is called 'Kiss You Anyway' and is exactly what the new Dami Im wants to show us. It's a modern and exciting effort, which still showcases her powerful voice, but doesn't draw attention away from the lyrics."[5]

Kyriakos Tsinivits from AussieVission said "The song is a very emotional piece about loving someone no matter what."[6]
