"Worthy / Lift Me from the Ground" (stylized in lowercase) is a dual-single by the Dutch musician San Holo, released on August 2, 2018 as the first and second single from his debut album, Album1.

Background and release

[edit]

"Worthy" was one of the first songs that Holo wrote with Album1 in mind.[2] The lyrics of the song were inspired by a conversation he had with his ex-girlfriend.[3] The artist said that, after a long process, he had finally found a way to incorporate his guitar playing style into his electronic music. "Lift Me from the Ground" started out as a "little melody", also on guitar.[4] He stated that, at the time he wrote the melody, he knew it would be "the heart of the song".[5] Holo wrote its lyrics with The Nicholas.[6] Initially, Holo would sing the vocals, but he said he "didn't like it". He then decided to use Sofie Winterson's vocals.[7] Both songs were released as a double single on August 2, 2018.[4][8] He explained that he decided to release both songs together because "they are true companions".[9] "Lift Me from the Ground" featured in the Netflix film To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You (2020).[10][11]
