Butterflies in My Tummy, the Texas-based alt-pop duo, is bringing an irresistible energy to the scene with their latest single, “SODA.” Known for their boy band aesthetic paired with a fresh twist on hyper-pop, Butterflies in My Tummy taps into the electric vibes of youth, that wild mix of carefree and questioning, in a way that’s hard to ignore. “SODA” comes in as a high-energy anthem for anyone who feels the tug-of-war between the free-spirited pull of staying young and society’s constant reminders to “grow up.”
From the opening beat, “SODA” hits with an infectious sound—fizzing with layered synths, punchy lyrics, and an upbeat rhythm that makes it almost impossible to stay still. It’s a track that begs to be played loud, capturing the heady rush of youth with all its contradictions. The duo leans into the hyper-pop sound, allowing the production to be bright and dynamic, creating a sonic landscape that feels like a rollercoaster ride through neon lights and teenage rebellion.
The lyrics paint a picture of those moments we’ve all felt: the pressure to take on responsibilities, to mature faster than we’d like, but also the resistance to let go of a part of ourselves that craves fun, spontaneity, and that exhilarating feeling of being young. The way Butterflies in My Tummy approaches this theme is both playful and relatable. They aren’t simply saying that we should hold on to our youth at all costs; rather, they explore the nuances of how it feels to navigate the path between innocence and adulthood. It’s a reminder that maybe we don’t have to have it all figured out just yet.
“SODA” doesn’t shy away from embracing the youthful spirit that Butterflies in My Tummy has become known for. They capture what it’s like to feel caught in a moment, but with a hint of nostalgia for the days when “growing up” wasn’t a constant background noise. The duo has managed to create something that resonates not only as a high-energy track but as a relatable piece of storytelling for anyone who’s felt like life moves a little too fast.
