Ava Max’s “Sweet but psycho” is spending a third week at the top of the UK Official Singles Chart. But who is Ava Max?
Ava is an American singer and songwriter. She began her musical career in 2017 featuring on Le Youth’s single “Clap your hands”.
Compared to Lady Gaga and Sia, the 25 year old artist dropped her debut solo single “My way” in April 2018. Second single was “Slippin” featuring Albanian rapper and singer Gash.
Before succeeding with current single “Sweet but psycho”, Max collaborated with acts like David Guetta, Vice and Jason Derulo.
Produced by Cirkut (Miley Cyrus, The Weeknd, Katy Perry), “Sweet but psycho” is a catchy pop track that stucks in your head.
“The track is about a girl who is misunderstood in a relationship” said the emerging star. “She thinks she’s going out of her mind and psycho. But in reality, she’s just a strong, independent female. In the end, the guy loves all of her sides – sweet, psycho (as he likes to call it)”.
The music video was directed by Bengali-American filmmaker Shomi Patwary, who has worked with Diplo, Ty Dolla Sign and A$AP Ferg.
We feel like we haven’t heard the last from Ava Max!
Lyrics:
Oh, she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Oh, she’s hot but a psycho
So left but she’s right though
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
She’ll make you curse, but she a blessing
She’ll rip your shirt within a second
You’ll be coming back, back for seconds
With your plate, you just can’t help it
No, no
You’ll play alo-o-ong, let her lead you o-o-on
You’ll be saying, “No, no”
Then saying, “Yes, yes, yes,” ’cause she messin’ with your head
Oh, she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Oh, she’s hot but a psycho
So left but she’s right though
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Grab a cop gun kinda crazy
She’s poison but tasty
Yeah, people say, “Run, don’t walk away”
‘Cause she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
See, someone said, “Don’t drink her potions
She’ll kiss your neck with no emotion
When she’s mean, you know you love it
She tastes so sweet, don’t sugarcoat it”
No, no
You’ll play alo-o-ong, let her lead you o-o-on
You’ll be saying, “No (No, no, no), no (No)”
Then saying, “Yes, yes, yes,” ’cause she messin’ with your head
Oh, she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Oh, she’s hot but a psycho
So left but she’s right though
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Grab a cop gun kinda crazy
She’s poison but tasty
Yeah, people say, “Run, don’t walk away”
‘Cause she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
You’re just like me, you’re out your mind
I know it’s strange, we’re both the crazy kind
You’re tellin’ me that I’m insane
Boy, don’t pretend that you don’t love the pain
Oh, she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Oh, she’s hot but a psycho
So left but she’s right though
At night she’s screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
Grab a cop gun kinda crazy
She’s poison but tasty
Yeah, people say “Run, don’t walk away”
‘Cause she’s sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she screamin’, “I’m-ma-ma-ma out my mind”
