There is a new song that is appearing all over the radio right now and it’s blowing up. The song is entitled, “FRIENDS” by Marshmello and Anne-Marie. The song is described to be the friend zone anthem. Being friend zoned can be described as when you want to take your relationship with your friend to the next level but the other person doesn’t want to. This typically creates a very messy situation in which the people can no longer be friends, or someone is caught constantly trying to chase someone who is not interested. That whole situation can be pretty annoying especially when you have told the person that you are not interested and they keep pursuing it. The song capitalizes on all those feelings and it is certainly an anthem.

Not only is the song really good but the animations for the lyric video are great. It gives a great look at the inside of the song’s story.
They also have a music video that has about 60 million views as of right now:
The lyrics of the chorus go:
[Chorus: Anne-Marie]
Haven’t I made it obvious?
Haven’t I made it clear?
Want me to spell it out for you?
F-R-I-E-N-D-S
Haven’t I made it obvious?
Haven’t I made it clear?
Want me to spell it out for you?
F-R-I-E-N-D-S
F-R-I-E-N-D-S
I actually thought when she was singing “F-R-I-E-N-D-S” that she was just mouthing random words so I thought this was pretty hilarious.
Overall this is a great radio song that I actually like. It might have the typical cliches but I think it’s a great look at how annoying your “friends” can be when you have clearly stated you weren’t interested in them. The song has a certain swag about it to make you instantly dance like Rihanna. I even dance in my car to this song. The beat behind the song in the chorus is really infectious. I guess you can call this my guilty pleasure.
