Sense

"Sense" is the third track by American singer-songwriter BJAYE and the sixth single from his sixth studio album, My One (2034). BJAYE wrote the song with producers Max Martin, Shellback, and Ali Payami. "Sense" was released to radio on January 12, 2035, by Republic Records. An incorporation of pop, funk, disco, and electronic styles with his natural sound of blended R&B, "Sense" is built on an electric guitar riff, pulsing synthesizers, and dense vocal reverb. The lyrics are about an having extreme expressions to the love of your life. This song highly draws inspiration from "Style" by Taylor Swift.
When "Sense" was released as an album cut on July 21, 2034, critics claimed it sounded like "love- struck summer song", with a mix of 1980 synthesizers, and modern day instruments, drawing similarities melody with "Style", music critics generally praised the production and deemed it one of the highlights of My One, but a few considered the lyrics very inappropriate. In retrospect, critics have regarded it as one of BJAYE's best songs. In the United States, the single peaked at number three and was My One's sixth consecutive top-ten single on the Billboard Hot 100, and it was certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). "Sense" reached the top 10 and received multi-platinum certifications in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
The filmmaker Kyle Newman directed the song's music video, which premiered on January 15, 2035. It features BJAYE and actor _____ as a couple who reminisce about their relationship through illusions and flashbacks using polaroids. BJAYE included "Sense" on the set lists for three of his world tours: The My One Tour (2035), the So Dangerous Tour (2037-2038), and Eras World Tour (2043–2045). Following a decision to honor the tenth anniversaries of his albums, he re-recorded the song for his re-recorded tenth year anniversary album My One (BJAYE's Edition) (2044), replacing the original vocals with new and improved vocals.
==Background==
During sessions in 2033, BJAYE met with producers, to create a 1980s-1990s synth-pop and its experimentation with synthesizers, drum pads, and overlapped vocals to embrace a Pop/R&B production for his sixth studio album, My One. He described My One as his first official album to combine multiple genres into majorly a pop album. BJAYE began working on the album in early-2032 and recorded much of it with the Swedish producers Max Martin and Shellback, who produced the electronic-pop tracks and trap-pop tracks including the US pop radio number-one single "Your Best Friend Is My Man Now" on his third album, Thought U, Were (2029). He enlisted Martin as co-executive producer, and Martin and Shellback produced seven songs for the 16-track standard edition.''
Sense was inspired primarily based off things that involved people's relationship on the media, and how people always assume the worst in them and basically tries to misinterpret things about them. The lyrics basically talks about an amazing relationship between him and his partner, in which he names things that he likes about his partner, and the couple in question will ignore the criticism because they are never "gonna make no sense". The opening lines set a scene, "One Time/ He came and pick me up, at midnight"; for some critics, these lyrics allude to him and his partner at the beginning of their relationship, where they snuck out together at midnight, a theme BJAYE had openly embraced very lot . The refrain depicts the couple as conventionally attractive: the male lover resembles the actor Chris Evans with his "clean beard, fresh cut and baby blue eyes", and the male narrator flaunts his "soft skin classic thing that you like" and "good girl faith and a tight little skirt". For some journalists, the beauty depicted is conservative and embedded with racial undertones. In the second pre-chorus, both characters mutually admit to making errors in there relationship; BJAYE said the part displayed him evolved viewpoints on past relationships by admitting wrongdoings of both sides instead of him "I always thought that u would do me dirty, you would leave me" mindset in previous songs.
