The Single Notez 🎶:

Great instrumental introduction; Incredibly brief, but ear-catching

Atmospheric sound,’ and colorful pop production; Valentin Buchwald and Arto Louis Eriksen do a fine job behind the boards (beat, synths, and pads are on-point)

The plight of love is real throughout; on the first verse, while Kids in Fashion lay out the issues, yet music takes on a more blissful and enigmatic

The second verse is a bit more defined and clearer; less nebulous

The second verse is more firmly planted in minor and of course, the “shitty” love experience

If there was any doubt KIF weren’t feeling love, they make it crystal clear on the centerpiece, the explicit but incredibly infectious and memorable chorus

Vocally, the falsetto by Alex is pretty sweet

“Fuck Love” runs just under three minutes – perfect, satisfying duration 

➖ Mommy, they drop the f-bomb!


Memorable lyric:

“Fuck love
Give me another
Shot to recover
Don’t wanna know ya...” 

🔏 In Closing:

Up-and-coming Danish pop collective Kids in Fashion have their middle fingers up to the sky on the infectious, explicit bop, “Fuck Love.”
