Having a crush can be the sweetest yet most sour experience. One second it’s lovey dovey thoughts while getting ready to casually run into them and the next it’s finding out they might not be as interested in you, as you are them. Kicking off the summer of temporary romance, Annick Blaize released her new single “Blurry Lines.” It’s a synth indie-pop track with a constant beat, groovy textures and Annick’s smooth vocals. Even though crushes don’t always last past a season, this song will be on your playlist all year round. If you’re into someone and can’t tell where you fit into their life, you’ll relate all too well. The vibes are as intoxicating as the sun so roll down the car windows and turn the speaker up to blast!
Annick wrote “Blurry Lines” to encapsulate the haze of a new crush. All the dizzy yet electric feelings when someone you like sees you for you and not just some passerby. Annick said “It’s about the blurred lines, the unspoken tension, the boundaries that feel like they’re shifting beneath your feet. It’s messy, a little reckless, and completely honest.” She also opened up to say the person she was falling for had a girlfriend and that right there is the cut that stings. How can someone seem so interested in you yet have their heart tied to someone already? A question I’m sure a lot of us are asking yet still haven’t figured it out. Boys are fickle in the ways they get into every crevice of our brains and play games that leave us confused and lusting. “You’ve drawn blurry lines, like one too many times.” Annick really pinpointed her emotions in this track and where the lines between infatuation and love blur, “Blurry Lines” will pull you in before you realize how addicting the song is.
