“Iknow it’s selfish to wish that you’re hurting / Just to prove that it was worth the / Pain and the joy that you put me through…” 🎙 Mad Tsai is the sugar honey iced tea – the whole damn meal to quote Lizzo.  The bisexual pop singer/songwriter has a knack for making satisfying bops. Love is often a theme in this bop, and single 🎵 “in my head” is no different.  What is different is that Tsai opts for balladry.

 

Mad Tsai, in my head [📷: Mad Tsai]“In my head” was written by Mad Tsai and 🎼 Jeremy Zuckerman.  Fittingly, it features amorous production (Tsai and 🎛 Drew Polovick).  Some of the ear candy includes dramatic strings and a wall of sound during the bridge. As far as those matters of the heart, Tsai has his heart broken. Ugh, how could anyone break this handsome man’s heart? Given the love pain, he sings authentically and expressively with a gorgeous tone. “Broke my heart, said our love was like movies / I’m not the one that you’re choosing / God, why do I always love alone?” he sings in the first verse. He’s been left and he laments his luck when it comes to love. “But in this life, I’m not complete / You found someone I can’t compete,” he sings, adding, “So, guess I’m stuck with loving you inside my head / ‘Cause in another world we’d be again.” This is incredibly relatable, which is one of the reasons why 🎵 “in my head”, as well as Mad Tsai as artist, is so lovable.  Keep the bops coming!
