Alexandra’s latest single “I’m Not Good At This Anymore” released on March 25th, is a testament to her rising talent. Alexandra is a singer/songwriter based in Dallas, Texas, she started her solo career in 2020 with “Bad Stuff” as her Debut. Despite only having three singles to her name before “I’m Not Good At This Anymore” Alexandra has already gained significant recognition. Her previous single “Bonnie & Clyde” made it onto BMI’s Texas Top Ten playlist.
“I’m Not Good At This Anymore” is a relatable and emotionally charged ballad that explores “post-first date come down – where the excitement of getting to know someone is watered down by the realization that your childlike wonder surrounding love has evaporated,” said Alexandra.
The song opens with palm-muted acoustic strums that build to the first chorus where a crunchy electric guitar is teased. The second verse introduces a heart-pounding drum line, which keeps progressing until it reaches an indie rock beat in the chorus. Layered with resonating lead guitars, acoustic guitar strums, and ambient synth the chorus has a full and beautiful soundscape that gives a euphoric experience to the listener. Alexandra’s warm and expressive vocals elevate the track, allowing her to deliver catchy and memorable vocal lines that weave together seamlessly with her storytelling ability.
“I’m Not Good At This Anymore” is a well-crafted and moving song that showcases Alexandra’s musical prowess. Her songwriting is thoughtful and poignant, while her vocal delivery is both heartfelt and powerful.
