Rising Filipino-Australian pop artist ALEXIS returns with her explosive new single “u sure like to make me feel crazy”, a synth-soaked breakup anthem that blends biting honesty with irresistible pop energy.
Explaining the message behind the track she says: “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,” ALEXIS shares on the release.
Written by Alexandra-Isabelle Barrientos (ALEXIS), Aidan Hogg, Alieysha Dulcie Nicholls, and Giulia Mclean, and produced by Aidan Hogg (GFlip, The Beaches), the track is a brutally honest yet irresistibly catchy anthem for anyone who’s ever questioned their own reality in a relationship.
The single arrives alongside striking visuals created by long-time collaborators Justin Cueno and Junaid Mohtaj, continuing ALEXIS’ signature blue motif. The photographs fuse surreal and chaotic imagery, think lawnmowers, freezing hose water, and a stomped-on cake, embodying both the humour and heartbreak of the track.
“u sure like to make me feel crazy” marks another bold step in ALEXIS’ growing catalogue, following the success of “Blue Jeans”, and “HATE IT HERE”, which received airplay on Triple J’s PRISM and Unearthed, and editorial support from Apple Music’s Pop Chill, New in Pop, and Relationship Goals playlists.
ALEXIS has previously collaborated with an impressive roster of Grammy-nominated and ARIA-recognised producers and writers, including Dan Gleyzer (BTS, Noah Cyrus), Aidan Hogg, Liam Quinn, Hugo Silvani (Palewaves), Hugo M Hardy (Nieve Ella), InKid (Zara Larsson), Albin Clern (Gryffen), and Tyler Murray.
Her work has been spotlighted by publications such as Earmilk, WHYTT Magazine, The Luna Collective, Fame Magazine, Sonic Sisters Magazine, Lock Magazine, and Urbanista Magazine, earning over 60,000 Spotify streams and placements on individually curated Spotify playlists with over 20,000+ likes.
With “u sure like to make me feel crazy”, ALEXIS cements herself as one of Australia’s most exciting new voices, pairing emotional rawness with euphoric pop energy.
