Background

Talking about the song, Henderson said, "Writing 'Glorious' was a mind-cleansing moment for me. It represents the first time I truly began to start celebrating everything I used to live in fear of. Learning to accept and love yourself for who you are can be difficult in this day and age. ‘Glorious’ stands for everything we should feel about ourselves – empowered and proud." [3]
