.SHY - “Floating”
“Floating” is a sultry new track, alternating flawlessly between a fast-paced beat and slow pauses. The song starts slow, drawing you in with gossamer vocals that escalate over time. The electronic beat provides a deeper backdrop to the higher register of .shy’s voice, which you’ll be quick to fall in love with. She shows off her range in the song, with a blend of electronic sound and R&B-Esque vocals that explore the push and pull of a relationship: “I used to wear your sweater in the car, but it’s lookin’ like I’m taking off.” The clever lyrics show off her confidence as a songwriter in addition to her clear mastery of vocals.
At just over two minutes, “Floating” doesn’t take long to immerse you in not just the vocals, but the pure emotion captured in the song. Just as the song straddles genres, the lyrics straddle pleasure and pain. The unsteady tempo mimics the relationship she sings about, carrying the listener through a rollercoaster of fast and slow, love and anger. It’s as if we’re inside the singer’s head, processing the aftermath of a toxic fling. .shy makes us not just passive listeners, but bystanders to the emotions in the song, ones that can’t help but resonate—just like her voice.
