Joji always gets me in my feelings.

Joji just dropped “LOVE YOU LESS,” a new track from his upcoming album PISS IN THE WIND, and it continues his streak of painfully relatable, emotionally raw music. The song leans heavily into indie territory, built around soft textures and a subdued, melancholic tone that perfectly matches its subject matter.

Lyrically, “LOVE YOU LESS” explores the confusion and frustration of a deeply imbalanced relationship. Joji reflects on a dynamic where affection only seems to be returned when he pulls away. When he’s fully present, the love feels unreciprocated—but the moment he detaches, suddenly they want him back. That emotional push and pull creates a quiet tension that sits at the heart of the track.

The line “If I love you less, will you love me more?” hits especially hard, summing up the insecurity and longing that define this kind of connection. It speaks to a toxic, possibly one-sided relationship that many people experience at some point in their lives.

“LOVE YOU LESS” is achy, honest, and introspective—a soft but cutting reminder of how complicated love can be. Another intimate sonnet from Joji that lingers long after the song ends.
