Ginesse "The Inbetween" review

The Inbetween is the third single by singer Ginesse that was released on May 24, 2019, through CatBeach Music.

Lyrically, The InBetween is alternative pop song that talks about a period between being friends with someone before it becomes something more.

Ginesse makes that known in the second verse singing,

We’ve been hanging out
Feels like you’re right on my couch
I don’t wanna f**k it up
Rather move nowhere than lose it all

Before moving to the pre-chorus with,

Rip out the tape
Pause and replay, replay me
(Pause and replay, replay me)

Then on the chorus, the singer finds herself wanting to take her relationship with her friend to the next level with the lyrics,

Traffic inside my head
I want you in my bed
But if we don’t make it there
I don’t really care

When I can feel you near
The weight of it disappears
So if we don’t make it there
I don’t really care

I love The InBetween by Ginesse and is probably, in my opinion, one of her best songs to date. It's sweet, but at the same time, though, very upbeat as well. Along with the single, she also released the music video on the same day.

Marguerite Derricks choreographed the whole dance for the video and then Ginesse and company decided to shoot the video in one long shot. Now that, my friends, is absolutely amazing.

Make sure that you listen/stream The InBetween on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Music:

Taylor Swift You Need to Calm Down review

You Need to Calm Down is a song by singer Taylor Swift that was released on June 14, 2019, through Republic Records. It also serves as the second single from Swift's upcoming seventh studio album titled Lover.

The song finds Swift addressing various detractors who post hurtful comments online while also talking about things like self-love and being true to one's identity, which is the same theme that she used on her previous single ME!

Taylor opens up the first verse singing,

You are somebody that I don't know
But you're taking shots at me like it's Patrón
And I'm just like, "Damn
It's 7 a.m."

Say it in the street, that's a knock-out
But you say it in a tweet, that's a cop-out
And I'm just like, "Hey
Are you okay?"

Then on the pre-chorus, Swift made a reference to her 2017 feud with Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian singing,

And I ain't trying to mess with your self-expression
But I've learned the lesson
That stressing and obsessing
'Bout somebody else is no fun
And snakes and stones never broke my bones

Before telling off all of the haters on the chorus with,

You need to calm down

You're being too loud

And I'm just like oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh)

You need to just stop
Like, can you just not step on my gown?
You need to calm down

On the second verse of You Need To Calm Down, Taylor continues to show her support for the LGBTQ+ community with the lyrics,

Why are you mad
When you could be GLAAD?
(You could be GLAAD)

Sunshine on the street at the parade
But you would rather be in the dark ages
Making that sign
Must've taken all night

You Need To Calm Down is the uplifting LGBTQ+ anthem that you need in your lives right now. I really love the message behind the song. In my opinion, this is the best song that Taylor has released from the Lover era.
