On my Spotify Wrapped, this song landed at #61, but when I posted a different Caroline Polachek song back in January, this was almost the pick. Since then, this has been the more listened-to song.
Released in 2020, the song was not initially a hit song, but did get TikTok famous in 2022 and hit the alternative charts then. Co-written by Polachek, producer Dan Nigro and singer/songwriter Teddy Geiger (from Rochester, NY!), the song was really kind of an extension of her Chairlift days (that was her former band).
Also, the song AND video are both very cool.
Anyone who doubts that Caroline Polachek can sing (and we admit we had doubts - her Jimmy Kimmel performance was too perfect) need not doubt any further - because this stripped-down version is absolutely beautiful.
We do prefer her performance when she interacts with a live crowd - who react to her and know every word.
