"Spiritus" is a song performed and written by Australian singer–songwriter Lisa Mitchell.

The song was released on 27 March 2012[1] as the lead single from her third extended play, Spiritus.

In an interview with Tom and Alex on Triple J on 27 March 2012, Mitchell said; "Spiritus means breath in Latin and I've been doing a lot of yoga lately and a lot of breathing; that's the main thing you concentrate on.

[6] Anna Gilfillan from Ripe Music wrote: ""Spiritus" has a more mainstream radio feel to it than her previous songs, yet Mitchell still manages to inject her kooky personality into the music" adding "With the combination of the piano and drums creating an extremely catchy sound, it will have you dancing around your living room.

"[7] In a review of the associated EP, Stephen Benko-Nehme from LipMag said: "Spiritus" has as "..utterly irresistible piano riff, is so summery and joyful; upon hearing the song it’s almost impossible not to close one's eyes and simply smile.
