The 1975 and Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Today I have the newest single by The 1975. I am super excited for this album because we get to hear a different side of The 1975. Their debut album was darker, both lyrically and musically. But this song is a really bright and poppy song. More so than normal for The 1975. This is an album that is going to be filled with more color and more excitement, rather than having those darker melodies and more melancholy sounds. From what I gather with this song and the first single they dropped for the album, there is a lot more light heartedness to the musicality of the songs, even if the lyrics aren't quite so. This song is a lot funkier and more upbeat than a lot of the music we have heard from The 1975. This is an exhilarating and somewhat provocative pop song, something that the pop scene in general desperately needs. Instead of sticking to topics about love, sex, alcohol, and staying strong, The 1975 goes with topics that we all really feel on a day to day basis. Matt Healy captures
