Straight Girls reminds us just how good bedroom pop can sound with her new single “Best Friend.” The song beautifully captures the heady emotions of infatuation.
“’Best Friend’ is just about a crush I had on my friend’s best friend! It was never really a crush I shouldn’t have had or anything, it was just a funny situation to be in,” she recalled. “The song just kinda goes through how into this girl I was, and how long I was into her, and it’s also about it being reciprocated, and how we used to interact. It was just something that never fully happened, but it was known that I had a thing for her by basically everyone around either of us, never tried to hide it, even around her, and that’s what the song is about!”
With a new backing band set to help her bring her songs to life, Straight Girls is set for a big year in 2022. Definitely watch this space, because Straight Girls has the goods.
