Leanne & Naara are back with a new single, “Not Supposed to Fall in Love,” marking their first drop of the year.
Released on June 26, 2026, the track follows their November 2025 single, “Never Goes Away,” and sees the pair diving into a familiar and painfully relatable territory: catching feelings for someone you were never supposed to fall for.
Made up of Leanne Mamonong and Naara Acueza, the duo once again leans into heartfelt storytelling and easygoing indie pop production. Produced by Brian Lotho and distributed by Ditto Music Philippines, “Not Supposed to Fall in Love” pairs a breezy melody with sharp, self-aware lyricism that feels playful yet brutally honest.
Ahead of the release, Leanne & Naara teased the song via social media on June 17, 2026, sharing a short snippet alongside the message: “What if umamin ka na kahit walang kasiguraduhan, malay mo naman (What if you confess even if there’s no certainty, you never know).”
The rollout continued with concept photos, which sees Acueza photographed holding onto a tree, a nod to the line, “Had a feeling I was barking up the wrong tree,” while Mamonong appeared sprawled across a lounge chair with eyes closed, visually capturing the emotional resolve reflected in the track.
The duo also unveiled the lyrics piece by piece on social media, sharing lines such as “Sad to think I was ready to jump in / For once I had something to believe in,” and “Sorry if I misconstrued the situation / Guess I was just looking for some attention.”
Since debuting in 2016 with the single, “Again,” Leanne & Naara continue to deliver emotionally resonant songs for hopeless romantics, with “Not Supposed to Fall in Love” serving as the latest heartfelt anthem.
