Produced by Veronica and mixed by Jorge Elbrecht—known for his work with Sky Ferreira and Caroline Polachek—“Just Because a Crush” is an enigmatic alternative-pop track that sets the stage for her forthcoming project. The song features glitchy electronics against a backdrop of yearning vocal harmonies, capturing a delicate encounter between two fragile minds. Veronica’s expansive vocals and dynamic production style transition seamlessly between pared-back moments and powerful crescendos. Her sincere, life-affirming lyrics, infectious hooks, and visceral production elements make “Just Because a Crush” an atmospheric, genre-transcending exploration of post-COVID anxiety.
