"Eyes Closed" is a song by American pop rock band Imagine Dragons, released as the lead single off the band's sixth studio album, Loom on April 3, 2024.[1] The song was released through Interscope and Kidinakorner the same day as the music video. It was written by Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, Ben McKee and producers Mattman & Robin.[2]
A remix of the song with Colombian singer J Balvin was released on May 3.[3]
The song is featured in the soundtrack of EA Sports’ NHL 25, marking the band’s third song in a soundtrack of the NHL video game series.
The song has been described as a mix of rap-rock, pop and alternative rock, with some dubstep.[1] In a statement, Reynolds said of the new track:
In March 2024, "Eyes Closed" was first teased following the latest release of "Children of the Sky (a Starfield song)" through various snippets, following secret codes and riddles to solve through their official website. Another snippet was released on March 27, alongside a team-based event that sorted fans into respective teams (Croyants, Reveurs, or Guerriers) based on their choices on a quick survey.[4]
The remix with J Balvin was released on May 3.[5]
The song appeared in the video package between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match at WrestleMania XL.
Directed by Andrew Donoho, the video follows Dan Reynolds, who appears to wake up from death—emerging from piles of sand—in a strange world, where he encounters ancient ruins. In his journey, he encounters four doors, but he cannot seem to escape from this place, until eventually a fifth door is unveiled that he must pass through. These strange-looking ruins turn out to be a dream from his subconscious spinning a near-death experience, from the aftermath of a car crash. The video ends with Reynolds leaving the scene and walking into the street.
