Personally I couldn’t get into it due to the sole fact that I can’t stop thinking of gotyes song throughout. I didn’t even know it played on the radio until today, always assuming it was just a TikTok song

    She doesn’t differentiate it enough from the gotye song. I like when people do samples well, but it sounds like she’s doing Kareoke but swapping out the lyrics. I don’t necessity hate it but I don’t love it.

    It’s a catchy pop song, but I share a similar sentiment. I question if this song would be as popular if it had an original beat?

    The song is fine but I don’t really like the trend of song topic being so in your face. I prefer I dunno… Artistic lyricism? Poetry in lyrics? “Anxiety anxie-ty anxiety is getting me” doesn’t do it for me. It’s catchy though.

    With that said I hate the video and it seems like there’s a significant trend of bourgeois aesthetics in american music. It’s liberal upper middle class coded.
