This edition: audio, pdf, streaming. A Cappella, Pop. 15 pages. Andrew Montano #1078860. Published by Andrew Montano (A0.1503412). 7-part divisi Solo Soprano 1 (Descant) Soprano 2 Alto 1 Alto 2 Tenor Bass "He Said She Said" was the first song CHVRCHES composed for their fourth album after the COVID-19 pandemic. The meaning behind the track focuses on the pressures of being true to oneself and living up to expectations, especially in the ongoing age of social media. The verses describe a hypocrisy and controlling, manipulative struggle with the singer's physicality and mental state. The quotes tell her to act a certain way or mold into a specific shape, but also mention to not go too far in either category. Not having a clear direction and attempting to please others makes the singer feel like they're losing their mind. Lauren Mayberry, the lead vocalist, said "The barebones of the song were there in about an hour and the opening line of thesong was the first lyric that came out." The song released with a music video following Mayberry trapped inside a transparent revolving door with no way ofescaping. She's seen bashing against the glass attempting to break out with shots of her spinning around. Martin Doherty, the synthesist and producer of the band, said "The chords felt like they had this eternal tension in them—they never actually release, even though they get really big. It feels to me like a panic attack." The lyrics enhance this tense suffocation with Mayberry's build up in the pre chorus followed by her highest range in the chorus. She switches between a false voice/autotune into her natural voice after breaking free from the silence. Almost as if her falsified persona is begging for release but no one responds to her cry for help.
