BB Music Group B.V. released niemand minder dan Jantine Heij haar single I don't give a f***. The story behind the song from Jantine's pen: I wrote this song in Los Angeles with the amazing Michael McEachern, in his home studio, high on burning sage. Sage was very much needed as my bf broke up with me the day before. I didn’t feel the need to get too sentimental, but more so felt this FUCK IT I wanna LIVE kind of vibe. I mean, I was in LA, renting a super cool apartment with friends and making music with amazing people. The session with Michael really helped me to pull that switch - I had been down for too long, hadn’t been myself for too long. So yea, I don’t give a f*** was really everything I needed at that time.
Michael and I are both huge pop punk fans so we wanted to create a song that breathes that vibe, but in a minimal and vocal-based jacket. The song is about being in town getting hazy with friends. Actually it is mainly about trying super hard not to think about “him”, about having your mind at zero, doing whatever you feel and what feels right RIGHT NOW, and not worrying about consequences. And yea there’s a perfect way to achieve that: getting with a random hottie who you can give zero fucks with together.
