It’s been a minute since we last heard from Human Barbie – we loved (and still love!) the crushing melancholy of “Be Careful What You Wish For” back in 2019. They’re back again with a song called “Wait,” a beautiful and unique song with bedroom vibes and a downbeat tempo that is sure to get your emotions swirling. We particularly love the musical transition from the hopeful verse melodies to a borderline haunting chorus; it swims from gently swung guitar chords into an almost menacing feel. It’s crushing… And if you haven’t figured it out by now, our black hearts here at buffaBLOG are particularly vulnerable to heartbreakers like this one.
“Wait” is out now on Poor Man Records. You can find “Wait” on both Bandcamp (below) and Spotify.
