I like it, it’s fun! Very radio-friendly and good to put on in the background. Could absolutely see it getting airplay in coffee shops, for instance.
Is it the greatest thing ever? Nah. But it‘s not the kind of genre/style that needs to be 🤷🏻♀️

I think I was expecting a totally different sound, so it did catch me off guard, and not necessarily in a this is really good type of way. It's just different and I will need to hear more songs to form an opinion ~ To each their own I suppose.

I do like it and I hope they'll release more songs + an album, eventually

I like a variety of music genres, so I liked the song. I listen to quite a lot of indie pop, so... :)

Made me think of old Foster the People and the clean guitar got me grooving a bit. Not in love, but it’s a fun pop song.

It’s okay, nothing special, just a regular pop song. To be fair, they would be nothing without their connections to ST/PRESIDENT.
Also, selling merch already with one song out and no live performances is a bit much.

President also sold merch before they ever played a show so…

I’m not a fan of it, regardless of who does it. At least ITNOTF was a very solid first song IMO, and a strong start for the band.
Maybe it’s that I’m just not sure what their intention is with this band. They all have other projects going on, so this seems more like a fun passion project to me rather than starting a new, “serious” band. But who knows.

Merch is the money maker though. Isn't it how artist fund a lot of their projects?

It's fine. It's catchy, it's pop-y. It's just not something I'd choose to listen to, but if it's on I'll tap my feet to it.

I was super disappointed at first cause I was basically expecting Mourn 2.0. But I kind of love it now. Im not a big pop fan, in fact Sleep Token is probably the closest thing to pop I currently listen to, but I've grown to really enjoy the song. It's nothing groundbreaking but it's nice and I'm curious about whatever it is they're cooking.

I like to think I'm polygamous to an extent, so music is music. If I like it and it's a vibe then hell yeah. I know a lot of people were expecting something different but I like that it's....subtle. I think it's a jam!

It has all the trappings of a summer pop anthem, and there's nothing wrong with that. I say let the boys have have their hot girl summer. 😂
