Tove Lo, I'm Your Girl Right? [📷: Pretty Swede Records]Swedish pop singer-songwriter Tove Lo drops an entertaining pop banger with “I’m your girl right?” the lead single from her sixth LP, ESTRUS

“I’m your girl, right? / Love me hard, it’s not my first time.”
Noted, Tove Lo (Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson).  The Swedish pop singer-songwriter previews her sixth studio album, ESTRUS (arrives September 18, 2026), compellingly with the lead single, “I’m your girl right?”. She wrote “I’m your girl right?” with producer A Strut.

“I’m your girl right?” begins with Tove Lo singing the titular lyrics abruptly; she wastes no time. Eventually, the lyrics reappear in the song’s crowning achievement, the chorus.  The chorus is quite memorable and tuneful.

“I’m your girl, right?

Love me hard, it’s not my first time

I’m your girl, right?

Heart still aches, you wanna hurt mine

Tell me what I wanna hear now

Don’t make me doubt

I’m your girl, right?

Love me hard, it’s not my first time.”

Beyond the chorus, the verses and pre-chorus shine.  Tove Lo delivers playful, well-rounded vocals from the opening to the closing tip. “Come brake me in, all horses win for you,” she sings in the second verse, and concludes, “We fuck all night on Ritalin-lin-lin-lin.” Wow!  She gets fuel for the fire thanks to the sleek musical accompaniment.  The driving, rhythmic groove takes the cake. Beyond the lit beat, the dance-pop cues stand out – the house piano, synths, and such. No, “I’m your girl right?” isn’t the second coming of pop music, but once again, Tove Lo drops an enjoyable bop that has some edge.
