Discussing the track Barbara explains: "Diamond Light is a song about memory and how it can change through your perception of time. Someone once said that life is like riding on a train backwards, you're moving forward but you can only see where you've been. I have these memories from when I was a little girl and the older I get the more I start to see them in different ways. I equate Diamond Light to those shimmering moments that stick out in your brain and continue to move through time with different facets and faces, sort of like a diamond."
Going on to discuss the video Barbara comments: "The video idea came after meeting up with my friend/director Kevin Jacobsen when I told him what the song was about and some memories I had when I was a little girl and how differently I see them now. He came up with this touching storyline that I found sad but also really beautiful. It was shot on March 15, 2020, the day our world changed and coincidentally on my birthday (also the Ides of March for those who are counting, there's some serious juju on this day.) I will never forget that day just because it was like something out of a movie while simultaneously trying to create one. We had people cancelling left and right because of the news but everyone that did show up was dedicated to making it happen. I cherish this video for so many reasons but mostly because it is a keepsake for the world before. Creating art has never been easy but I'm so grateful we got to make it that day when everything was turning on its head, even just to dance a little."
