I don't think I have heard a song that better describes what it is like for a girl in this generation to fall for a boy then the song, “Losin Control,” by Russ. He explains how hard it is for a girl to let go of the things that have happened to her in her past so that she can move on to her future.
“She’s fallin’ in love now Losin’ control now Fightin’ the truth Tryin’ to hide But I think it’s alright girl Yeah, I think it’s alright girl”
When a girl begins to fall for a new boy, she becomes scared. We don’t want to believe that we like them; we don’t want them to know. It is hard for us to accept the fact that we like someone new. We don't know what to expect from this new relationship and it scares us.
"She's falling but she doesn't think he'll catch her Cause her last relationship was a disaster Accusations everyday she didn't know why All her calls would be ignored he's on his own time."
If you are a girl, and have ever been through a hard relationship then these lycris speak volumes to you. You begin to fall for a new guy but you aren’t expecting him to like you back because that is what you are used too. You are used to being ignored and assuming that things just weren’t going to work out because that’s how it always happens for you. But it shouldn't be like that. You deserve someone who wants to talk to you, and cares about how you are.
"Now she's all alone and starting over Now she's got baggage on her shoulder."
As girls, it is hard for us to move on. We get so caught up in what happened to us in the past that we begin to let it affect our future. We carry about the “baggage” from our past relationship and let it define new relationships with others.
"She fell for him and hasn't gotten' up since Every now and then she goes off though Beating on his chest like a bongo He understands she's coming from a hurt place."
Once a girl finally gets through the rough past, and actually falls for another guy, we fall fast and we fall hard. We can’t help, its how we were made. We are going to question you, and half of us may not believe you but it is the other half of us that will allow us to trust you.
Although this song has been out since 2015, it is just now getting the publicity that it needs. So here is to Russ for capturing the emotion along with the complicated past that many girls have been through in just four minutes.
