Brooke Lee Revisits Her Younger Self in New Single “She Would’ve Loved This”

We knew Brooke Lee before the move to Nashville. Before the publishing deal. Before the spotlight. Back when her voice was echoing through North Carolina bars and her lyrics were already cutting deeper than most chart-toppers could dream.
In her latest single, “She Would’ve Loved This,” Brooke doesn’t just tell a story—she looks directly at the girl she used to be.
The track is a tribute to her younger self. The one dancing around the kitchen in ballgowns made from robes, wearing Mary Kay lipstick, and dreaming big in a coat too big for her shoulders. That image might sound sweet, but Brooke doesn’t write with rose-colored glasses—she writes with honesty. The kind that sticks with you.
The chorus hits like a memory that’s been waiting to surface:
“She would’ve loved this feeling of flying / Free as can be, thirteen, just watching as the planes go by…”
It’s not nostalgia—it’s reflection. Brooke Lee has lived a lot since those sidewalk chalk days. The second verse brings us into her now: falling in and out of love, finding confidence in loud rooms and peace in solitude. And she’s still dancing around that kitchen.
That’s the core of this song: the person she was, the woman she is, and the unshakable thread connecting the two.
Brooke has always been good at making a song feel lived-in, but “She Would’ve Loved This” hits different. It’s vulnerable without being soft. It’s emotional without trying too hard. And above all—it’s real.
