Joey Nebulous "Talking to Boys Online"

DEAR LIFE RECORDS | 2024

by Steven Logan

The best Joey Nebulous songs walk the line between playful irony and almost painful sincerity. “Talking to Boys Online” is the perfect case study - starting as a song about a crush (comfortable thematic territory for Joey and the gang) but blossoming into true infatuation, something a little deeper and moodier. The interpolation of a Charli XCX all-timer is just the cherry on top of the spumoni.

“Talking to Boys Onliine” is a personal favorite from Joey Nebulous’s second album Joey Spumoni Creamy Dreamy Party All the Time, out last year on Dear Life Records.
