The New Zealander’s alt-pop gem defines isolation for everyone
Benee may have written “Supalonely” about a toxic relationship, but it’s evolved into a perfect alt-pop quarantine anthem. The 20-year-old New Zealander, real name Stella Rose Bennett, dropped the track late last year; last month, it caught fire on TikTok, comforting those in lockdown with its lyrics about isolation.
“I know I fucked up, I’m just a loser/Shouldn’t be with ya, guess I’m a quitter,” she sings in the opening lines. “While you’re out there drinking, I’m just here thinking/’Bout where I should’ve been.” The highlight of the track is Benee’s throaty groan over the sound of glass clinking together, before diving straight into the irresistible chorus: “I been lonely/Mm, aah, yeah.
Benee is one of a few artists — like Doja Cat and Dua Lipa — who’ve been digging into Seventies-tinted music trends with lo-fi disco beats lately. Her kind pairs particularly well with the 1975’s “
