Carey made the announcement on New Year’s Eve, during her performance on New Year’s Eve with Carson Daly. The title of the track is currently unknown.

Carey has also revealed that her long-delayed album, The Art of Letting Go, will be released in the very near future.

“The album is coming this spring,” she told the audience at the event. “New single, Valentine’s Day.”

Originally slated to be released last July, the album was postponed because Carey still wanted to add some good songs.

“I’d rather not exclude meaningful songs. I want to give you this album as it’s meant to be heard,” she said in June.

The Art of Letting Go will include “Triumphant (Get ‘Em),” which was released back in 2012, lead single “#Beautiful” which features a guest appearance from Miguel, and title track “The Art of Letting Go” which premiered on Carey’s Facebook page in November.
