All That Glitters

About the Artist

Karise Eden and Greg Gould are both powerhouse vocalists, songwriters and performers in their own right, but have come together on this heart-wrenching and grief-stricken new single ‘All That Glitters’. With ARIA-recognised success, award-winning viral videos and major television acclaim between them, Karise Eden and Greg Gould unite on a new collaboration that captures the powerful chemistry and emotional fire of their voices. Written by Karise Eden with Andrew Lowden, ‘All That Glitters’ is a deeply personal anthem shaped by hard lessons and lived experience. Through reflective lyrics, the song explores survival, resilience, and the difficult road toward forgiveness after life’s darker chapters. It’s a story about protecting yourself, the people you love and confronting the illusion that fame and success are worth the cost. Eden later sent the demo to Gould while they were on tour together late last year. Gould immediately connected to the track, recognising parts of his own story within the lyrics, being told that they are not enough, too much, or too different. The song evolved into a duet, combining their immense vocal prowess into a sparkling song of emotional redemption and allowing all the hard and painful feelings in. Drawing from personal experiences, the song reflects healing, forgiveness, and the process of breaking cycles while reclaiming creative independence after trauma, grief, and intense industry expectations. For Eden, the song confronts the aftermath of sudden fame following her historic win as the first-ever winner of The Voice Australia, and the strength she found in becoming a mother, learning to protect her child, her life, and the future she was determined to build beyond the expectations placed upon her at that time. For Gould, it revisits early experiences navigating the industry as a gay artist, reflecting on moments where his sexuality overshadowed his talent. Together, the song becomes a powerful statement about autonomy, resilience, and refusing to be defined by other people’s fears. “After albums, touring and building my independence, I went through a period where life caught up with me and writing felt out of reach. 'All That Glitters' became the song that brought me back," Eden shares. "When Greg came into the picture, the story opened up, bringing two perspectives together, two artists, two stories carrying different experiences, but finding common ground in resilience and honesty.” Produced by Stuart Stuart (The Veronicas, Sheppard), the slick production never overshadows the important lyrical content in the track, instead creating a smooth carriageway to carry the song, leaving room to really hear what is being said.
