El joven actor Joshua Bassett presenta ‘Telling myself’, su nuevo single acompañado del correspondiente videoclip, publicado vía Warner. El tema está incluidos en su EP debut de título homónimo lanzado recientemente.
‘Telling myself‘ ha sido compuesta por Joshua Bassett, David Pramik & Caroline Pennell, contando en la producción con los dos primeros junto a Dallas Caton. El vídeo musical ha sido dirigido por Audrey Ellis Fox bajo la productora Samacan y la participación de la actriz Chandler Kinney.
Respecto al EP ha comentado : «Mi proyecto debut es una montaña rusa de historias y emociones. Fue escrito en un largo periodo de dos años, y cada canción representa un capítulo de mi vida diferente. Se trata de todo el desorden que puede haber en las relaciones amorosas, la ida y la vuelta de enamorarse a desenamorarte, y sobre como todas esas historias se vienen juntas en un mismo caos».
- Sorry
- Do It All Again
- Lie Lie Lie
- Only a Matter of Time
- Telling Myself
- Heaven Is You
Se incluyen los singles publicados en los últimos meses como han sido ‘Lie lie lie’ y ‘Only a matter of time’. En un principio, este trabajo tendría una colaboración con su novia, la ex-estrella de Disney Sabrina Carpenter, pero se decidió eliminar el dueto ‘We Both Know’ para no seguir avivando la polémica entre ellos dos y Olivia Rodrigo (su ex-novia) con gran negatividad en las redes sociales. En 2020 lanzó ‘Just For A Moment’ con Olivia Rodrigo además de los temas ‘Common Sense’ y ‘Anyone Else’, entre otras canciones que le han llevado a acumular casi 100 millones de streams totales.
El también actor Joshua Bassett es conocido por su papel protagonista como Ricky Bowen en “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series” de Disney+ y a Aidan en la serie “Atrapada en el medio” de Disney Channel. Hizo su debut en 2017 en la serie “Lethal Weapon” y se le ha visto en otros productos televisivos como “Game Shakers”, “Grey’s Anatomy” o “Dirty John”.
Letra ‘Telling myself’ de Joshua Bassett
[Verse 1]
Started out, started out so simple
We were runnin’ ‘round, runnin’ ‘round like children
How did we allow, we allow
This story to fall so south?
What were we, what were we both thinking?
We were so naïve, so naïve believin’
We were still happy, still happy
How could I ignore my doubts?
[Chorus]
I keep on telling myself we had something good
Did we stay together longer than we should?
Were we just playing pretend because we could?
Was it really that good?
I keep on telling myself it’s not what it was
Did we just want to believe that this was love?
Was it really worth the trouble that it caused?
Look where we ended up
[Post-Chorus]
I keep on telling myself (x3)
I keep on telling myself, oh
[Verse 2]
Don’t pretend, don’t pretend
You’re all a sudden innocent, innocent
My darlin’, how could you forget, you forget
The first half of the story now?
[Chorus]
I keep on telling myself we had something good
Did we stay together longer than we should?
Were we just playing pretend because we could?
Was it really that good?
I keep on telling myself
[Bridge]
And now that you’re gone, I see it all clearly
And don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t change a thing
[Chorus]
I keep on telling my—
I keep on telling myself we had something good
Did we stay together longer than we should?
Were we just playing pretend because we could?
Was it really that good?
I keep on telling myself it’s not what it was
Did we just want to believe that this was love?
Was it really worth the trouble that it caused?
Look where we ended up
[Post-Chorus]
I keep on telling myself (x4)
