And though there is an acknowledgement that this isn’t the best way to be spending time, the band is clear that they don’t want to be told what to do nor do they want your advice.Īnd though the song is a general message about growing older and dealing with new responsibilities- a quintessential pop punk staple- it hits extra hard in a time when no one’s future is certain- especially in the music world. Shark Bait first caught our attention back in December with their cover of “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” and now are once more on our new release radar with their new single “Better Late Than Never.”Ī pop punk song that has an extra bit of punch to it, “Better Late Than Never” is about feeling stuck in a repetitive cycle that never seems to be moving forward, while also not wanting to change anything from how it is.ĭescribed as a song about “living for the weekend,” the track makes several references to the Back To The Future series with verses like “don’t call me Marty McFly because we’re nothing alike, while he’s saving the future I’m fucking up mine,” – honing in on the idea that the future is uncertain. We’re better off standing by each other!” “ rebels against the trope of women fighting over men. “At it’s core, it’s a bi-sexual and feminist anthem,” Alma Grace shares. Inspired by her own favorite story about Kahlo, in which the Kahlo’s husband cheats on her with another woman, only for Kahlo herself to go also sleep with the same woman- “Girl Fight” is an ode to female relationships and friendships, as well as a reminder to not let the actions of others keep you down.Ī catchy pop song that features cheeky lyrics such as “this ain’t your mama’s girl fight,” and “we’re better off with each other,” the track plays up the idea that there isn’t a need to fight over men because women can be there for each other in a way that men can’t be- either romantically or platonically.
So much so that she has named her upcoming EP after Kahlo, and this week the songstress gave fans their first glimpse into the EP with her new single “Girl Fight.” As a Mexican-American, Alma Grace has always felt a strong connection with artist and activist Frida Kahlo.
