In a music landscape that often favors polished perfection over raw honesty, ALEXIS is carving a niche for herself as a fearless storyteller.
Her latest single, “u sure like to make me feel crazy”, continues the momentum built by her earlier releases, “Blue Jeans” and “HATE IT HERE”. With its infectious synth-driven instrumentation and confessional lyrics, the track is a study in balancing euphoric pop energy with emotional vulnerability—a hallmark of ALEXIS’ growing sound.
The songwriting on the track, a collaboration between ALEXIS, Aidan Hogg, Alieysha Dulcie Nicholls, and Giulia Mclean, feels sharp, immediate, and deeply relatable. Lines that explore the disorientation and self-doubt of a fraught relationship hit with precision, reflecting the realities of emotional complexity that many listeners experience but rarely hear articulated so clearly. It’s a lyricism that transforms personal reflection into a shared, almost communal experience.
Production-wise, Aidan Hogg ensures that the song is both sonically rich and emotionally resonant. The synths glimmer with a kind of restless energy, the percussion drives the track forward, and subtle electronic accents keep the song feeling fresh and contemporary. Hogg’s experience with acts like GFlip and The Beaches is evident in the way the track balances pop accessibility with a nuanced emotional depth.
Liam Quinn’s mixing and mastering polish every element to perfection. Vocals are intimate and immediate, emphasizing ALEXIS’ candid delivery, while the instrumental layers are perfectly balanced to provide texture without overshadowing the song’s emotional core. The result is a track that feels both professionally crafted and intensely personal, allowing listeners to sink into the experience fully.
What sets “u sure like to make me feel crazy” apart is its combination of honesty and catchiness. The chorus is instantly memorable, yet the song’s true strength lies in its emotional resonance. ALEXIS captures the tension between vulnerability and empowerment in a way that is both cathartic and exhilarating, solidifying her position as a distinct voice in contemporary pop.
ALEXIS says on the release, “I wrote this song about a previous relationship I had where I was constantly second-guessing myself and I felt like I was losing my mind. It’s a brutally honest reflection on what it means to lose yourself into someone else’s chaos and the clarity that comes when you finally step out of it”.
As ALEXIS continues to release music, her trajectory is clear: she is an artist unafraid to explore the messy, complicated truths of human relationships while crafting songs that feel joyful, relatable, and unforgettable. “u sure like to make me feel crazy” isn’t just another single—it’s a statement. With it, ALEXIS cements her reputation as one of pop’s most exciting new talents, and it’s a journey that promises even more bold, emotionally intelligent music to come.
