Cate is in her banger era, and she wants everyone to know it. Following the glittery stylings of “Girlfriend” the UK based Canadian singer-songwriter is back with another sassy, honest and infectious tune for you to add to all of your playlists.
“U Want Me” is a confident moment that hears her reflecting on the grieving process of a breakup. Acknowledging that she takes time to get over someone and likes to make sure she’s in a good place before completely moving on, she looks at her exes who have instead immediately jumped to someone else. Figuratively forgetting she exists, they always crawl back just when she’s ready to move on, so this is her sashay away moment as she walks past them and says no. “No, but I bet you’ll want me. When you’re out there feeling sorry, feeling lonely. When you’re out there trying so hard to replace me. I know you’ll come crawling back down on your knees” she sings.
Lyrically and sonically reminiscent of Julia Michaels’ “Wrapped Around”, this song channels a confident energy that is full of sass and purity. It’s all about finding your inner power and being able to say “I am someone you’re going to miss”. It’s an energy we all need to find within ourselves during those moments. With a big disco-pop inspired production, she serves you Dua Lipa “Future Nostalgia” realness, as well as some classic Kylie Minogue campness. Strings intertwined with nostalgic synths and beats, you will be immediately transported to the dance floor where you’ll be waiting for your ex to appear so you can walk past them and not bat an eyelid.
