Nashville, TN (September 5, 2025) – Country powerhouse Jacquie Roar returns with her most vulnerable release yet, the emotional ballad “Other Side.” Written from a place of deep personal renewal, the song tells the story of escaping the control of a narcissist and finding the strength to embrace love and happiness again.
The track, co-written by Jacquie Roar, Jesse Slack, Jordan Gray, Steve Fee, and Jason Mater, delivers a raw and empowering message for anyone who has endured the pain of abuse. With poignant lyrics like “I crawled my way out a prison cell / The home I made became my hell,” “Other Side” serves as both a battle cry and a beacon of hope.
“About eight or nine years ago, I was with someone who almost ruined my life,” Jacquie shares. “It was a long path of recovery, and now I want to tell my story to help others. This song is for anyone who has been in, or is currently in, the grip of a narcissist, or anyone facing the pain of an extremely toxic partner. Here’s your sign to leave. Male or female, you are worthy of love, and you are worthy of happiness. I found mine on the ‘Other Side.’”
According to the National Domestic Violence Hotline, intimate partner violence affects more than 12 million people every year. “I want this song to save lives and change the world,” Jacquie emphasizes.
With stirring vocals and soul-baring emotion, “Other Side” finds Jacquie channeling the depth of Adele while carrying the grit and honesty fans of Jelly Roll, Ella Langley, and Avery Anna will instantly connect with.
Jacquie’s journey proves that survival is only the beginning, that thriving is possible, and that “Other Side” is her anthem for anyone ready to claim it.
