Rising talent sad alex teams up with mike. to release ‘one that got away’, an emotional tune about the feelings of regret and “what if?” that comes with past relationships.
‘one that got away’, the new collaborative track by sad alex and mike., features a music video shot in a single take. The evocative visual follows a man and woman moving past their emotions by drinking and hanging out with friends before coming face to face with each other and their feelings.
sad alex explains,
“Sometimes things donβt work out with a person because they werenβt right for you. And that hurts, but in a way, it’s easier because you have your answer. But when you feel like you just didnβt say how you feltβ¦ or didnβt fully appreciate the time you had togetherβ¦ or only had dumb drunk hookups and didnβt give a chance for some real feels to growβ¦ that pill can be tougher to swallow. I think everyone has a one that got away, and I definitely have at least one. If any of them hear this, hey, hi, letβs try it again.β
The single follows the singer-songwriter’s viral hit ‘ibtc’, which has garnered over a ton of remixes via TikTok with over 20 million views.
2020 has been sad alex’s biggest year, signing with Red Bull Records and gaining over 15 millions streams with her complex and relatable music.
She enjoys a growing fanbase in Asia, her tracks charting in the Top 10 in Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, and Indonesia. Her previous single ‘until’ peaked at #19 on Hard Rock FM’s Top 41 chart in Indonesia.
