"Blink twice if she's holding you hostage.
Give me a sign and I'll be on it.
I'll get a car if you get your bags.
Run away and don't look back".
Despite the playful nature of the song, there is an underlying vulnerability that ÊMIA captures beautifully with her voice. The lyrics reveal the longing and uncertainty that come with having a crush on someone who may or may not be available. The chorus is particularly powerful, with ÊMIA singing:
"Blink twice if she's been holding you.
Blink twice if she's been holding you.
Hostage baby.
Let me help you break free"
One of the standout elements of the song is the production, which is both polished and intimate. The mix of spacy and electronic instruments creates a dreamy soundscape that perfectly complements ÊMIA's vocals. The song has a lo-fi feel to it, which gives it a warm and personal touch.
Overall, "blink twice if she's holding you hostage" is a unique and refreshing rendition of a classic love song.
