Jenna Roesler is here to remind us how our crush gets all our brain functions hitting the brakes everytime, with her latest single, “nervous,” released on February 16. From the first notes of the guitar melodies to the surge of frustration in the chorus, Roesler’s evocative vocals guide you safely through the emotional rollercoaster of unspoken feelings and apprehension.
The song opens with soothing guitar melodies that immediately set a nostalgic tone. As jittery percussion joins the mix, the song gains momentum, mirroring the fluttering nerves of its protagonist. Roesler’s vocals, high and soft in the verses, perfectly capture the delicacy and the apprehension in the moments between her and her crush.
In the chorus, the instrumentals swell, and Roesler’s vocals gain intensity as she sings of the struggle to articulate her feelings in the presence of her crush. The lyrics speak ever so eloquently about the tongue-tied and flustered feeling in the presence of someone we admire, adding a layer of relatability to the song’s youthful charm.
Written with Jake Arther and produced by Smith Curry, Roesler delivers a masterful performance that balances vulnerability with empowerment.
In a world inundated with polished pop anthems, “nervous” stands out for its organic charm and genuine sincerity. Feel the nuances of your connection with Roesler’s honesty and vulnerability in her latest single. Listen to “nervous” and find the power of music bridging your hearts and minds.
