Even if they keep being treated coldly or get hurt by being cheated on, I could picture them saying, “I’ll get back at you,” yet ultimately doing nothing and remaining in love with the person.

They say they’ll take revenge, but in the end, I think they can’t get them out of their head precisely because they still love them.

A breezy jazz-pop tune woven by Matt Maltese from Reading, UK.

Centered on the theme of jealousy in romantic relationships, this work captivates with a balanced blend of humor and emotion.

Released in February 2025, it serves as the lead single from the forthcoming album “Hers,” due out in May.

The music video, directed by Prasanna Puwanarajah, visually interprets the song’s theme by depicting a quest to win a lover’s heart through a fencing match.

It’s a track that showcases Maltese’s distinctive perspective and refined musicality—qualities that propelled “As the World Caves In” to global success on TikTok in 2021—making it perfect for those moving forward with hope while carrying deep emotions.
