The follow-up to the infectious IDK You Yet, which has garnered nearly 100 million global streams since its release in May, Caught In The Middle continues a string of wistful yet sharp offerings from Alexander 23.

Building up from a bare guitar line-driven opening to a full-bodied pop tune, Caught In The Middle mirrors the emotional inner turmoil that one experiences after a breakup. A study on the complex moment of uncertainty that sits somewhere between ‘lovers’ and ‘strangers’, the track soars high with bright instrumentation and velvety vocal harmonies, soaked in sunshine pop sensibilities. With a touch of introspective lyricism added to the mix, the sentimental tone of the track is sure to find you swooning over the swelling melodies.

Speaking on the new single, Alexander shares:

‘Caught in the Middle’ is about the uncomfortable familiarity I have with someone I was once in a relationship with. It’s strange to know someone’s deepest, darkest secrets, but not be up to date on their daily setbacks and triumphs—to truly be in between ‘lovers’ and ‘strangers.’
