Review: "The Wrong Guys" - Lizzy Donzis

Lizzy Donzis’ “The Wrong Guys” is your classic story about dating all the wrong guys, just as the title says. Whether you’re the type to move too fast, or maybe your independence gives them the wrong idea, finding Mr. Right seems like it’ll never happen when you keep dating guys who just aren’t working with you. You get obsessed, he leaves you at the worst time, and then you’re left crying and wondering why your luck is so rotten. Endlessly relatable and super catchy, “The Wrong Guys” is perfect for all you folks who just can’t help but hop into relationships with men who always end up breaking your heart.

 If you’re looking for a song to shout out the car windows, you and your friends dancing along to the chorus, then I can’t recommend “The Wrong Guys” enough. It’s upbeat and energetic with that perfect tint of melancholy, and with a super catchy chorus that is definitely going to get stuck in your head for days to come. The soundscape is a combination of bright pop and somber indie, humming vocals complementing the entire track like a bow tied around a gift. It gave me the impression of smiling through the tears, heartbreak, and pain, just like what the song itself discusses. The lyrics are also amazing, highlighting the back-and-forth– and inevitability– that comes from dating all the wrong guys. It seems like no matter what the narrator does, they end up crying in the end, wishing that the relationship could have lasted. “The Wrong Guys” is an amazing breakup track, underscoring the aftermath of messy relationships that were doomed from the start.
