[1] Hamilton released "Edge of Us" on 31 May 2024, marking her first solo release in fourteen years. [2] [3] Speaking about the song, Hamilton said it "marks a thrilling homage to the torturous feelings that haunt you when it comes to the end of a relationship. It delves into the depths of all emotions and feelings, yet ultimately celebrates the courage to say "enough" and walk away from what no longer aligns with you. This song resonates as a powerful anthem of resilience, inspiring people to embrace their inner strength and make bold, transformative choices."

"Edge of Us" was described as a "dancefloor ready number that delves into the themes of love, loss and personal growth."
