A confessional pop gem that powerfully explores the complex nature of relationships.
British artist Harvey Brittain continues to showcase his emotionally rich songwriting and sonic evolution with “obsessed,” a standout track from his newly released pop album my heart keeps score. The rising singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer—who first made waves at age sixteen opening for British R&B icon Courtney Pine and appearing on The X Factor—has crafted a confessional anthem that captures the complexities of crossing the line from friends to lovers.
Now splitting his time between the UK and US, Brittain delivers a gorgeously layered soundscape on “obsessed,” combining tender piano melodies with distorted, mood-setting guitar to evoke the push-pull tension of a passionate but fragile relationship. His lyrics dig deep into the thrill and emotional chaos of sudden intimacy, with standout lines like: “Wearing nothing but your YSL perfume / You got me doing things I never do” and “They say you’ll leave me a wreck, but f** it, now I’m obsessed.”
Brittain’s emotive, melodic vocals serve as the perfect guide through this vulnerable journey, balancing honesty with a polished pop sensibility. It’s a track that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable—perfect for anyone who’s ever fallen too hard, too fast.
Turn the volume up and give “obsessed” a spin.
