Whether summer means a few months of a wide-open schedule and not knowing what day it is, or just another few months out of the year where you tap your foot under your desk until the weekend, Alex Blue has you covered with the perfect summer tune. With a fitting title, “So Good” is the perfect encapsulation of the inevitable summer blues and the sunshine that wishes them away.
Sharing a little backstory on the track, Alex says, “This song is about getting a call from the worst possible person to hear from on your birthday. It makes a day that should have been celebratory a bit of a nightmare. This dancey song daydream is about what the party might have been like if that call never came.” Just because the weather is nice and the sunlight sticks around a little longer these days doesn’t mean everyday worries and struggles don’t know where to find us. Blue pinpoints that feeling so well in this song. Not only do I find comfort in someone else admitting to feeling not so great on what should be a good day, but Blue has made me want to get up and dance about it. Take a drive around your neighborhood, roll down your windows, blast some “So Good,” and thank me later.
In a visual accompaniment to the song, Alex can be seen enjoying a classic rock pop under the summer sun, taking in the colors, sounds, and scenery that are guaranteed to invigorate your summer daydreaming.
Written by Alex Blue and produced by herself & Giulio Cercato, “So Good” joins “Coffee in the Morning,” another recent single off of Alex’s current EP project.
