But what’s going on with Sixpence None the Richer’s “Kiss Me” sound? Obviously, we don’t discover it on a beautiful morning in September 2024. The sound is an essential classic, popularized through cult adolescent fiction (like She is too good and its reboot) or our karaoke evenings where water was not the only drink on the table. But now, in the same space-time, Sabrina Carpenter offers a choice cover during one of her concerts on her “Short n’ Sweet Tour”, then LISA from BLACKPINK sample the bop on his brand new solo track, “Moonlit Floor,” which will be released on October 3.
During the Global Citizen festival in New York, she sang it in preview and immediately, the chorus covering the hit by Sixpence None the Richer tickled our ears. And not only that. Sniff sniiiiif, do you smell that? It smells like a banger, designed for trends and streaming platforms. We were also talking about Sabrina Carpenter and it’s no coincidence: the song is totally Carpenter codedto our greatest pleasure, which offers a hit very different from the most recently released, namely “New Woman” featuring ROSALÍA or “Rockstar” – which accurately and skillfully sampled Tame Impala.
Finally, the lyrics are intriguing. “Green-eyed French boy got me trippin’, How your skin is always soft, How your kisses always hit”. We do not need to have a certification in the language of Shakespeare to understand the tendentious allusions, which are ultimately not even allusions but very direct words about the visibly very sweet kisses of a certain “French with green eyes”. So, a way to confirm her alleged romance with Frédéric Arnault (LVMH) which has been fueling rumors for months and months? Only the future (and perhaps other sounds, which we hope are also sweet) will tell us.
