Felix Jaehn has a habit of crafting catchy tropical house tracks, but on “Close Your Eyes,” the sentiment is much deeper than that of his big hits.
Written specifically for his fans, Jaehn uses “Close Your Eyes” as an opportunity to address mental health, and at the end of the song, he can be heard asking his fans, “How are you doing? I hope you’re well.” This track is the last of the year from Jaehn and the latest in a slew of releases to dissect and spread awareness on mental health issues. Jaehn, who co-wrote the track alongside Miss Li, is in the middle of a creative journey.
Recently, he’s dedicated himself to co-writing all of his music and having a more direct hand in all aspects of his creative identity. “Close Your Eyes” is a direct and satisfying result of that evolution, serving as words of encouragement to his supporters to stay positive, keep calm, and keep going.

The song, like all of Jaehn’s biggest tracks, is a certified earworm, with an infectious hook courtesy of Miss Li and an undulating bass courtesy of German duo Vize. The track inspires hope in its listeners and will undeniably be on repeat at New Year’s Eve parties.
