Bipp

## Audio

"**Bipp**" (stylized as "**BIPP**") is a song performed by SOPHIE. It serves as the first track from SOPHIE's debut compilation album, PRODUCT.

## **Background**

This 2013 single from London electronic artist SOPHIE brought her to the forefront of experimental pop and garnered massive critical reception. Featuring bubbly instrumentation and chirpy vocals, “**BIPP**” is often considered one of the best tracks of 2013.

"**BIPP**" is furthermore the only track of SOPHIE’s to receive an official remix. Following the release of her 2015 album PRODUCT, the Scottish record label Numbers approached her about pursuing a remix album, to which SOPHIE is quoted as responding “NO remixes… unless it’s Autechre.”

"**BIPP**" finally received its official remix from Autechre on January 14th, 2021, two weeks before SOPHIE’s untimely death.

An NPR article covering SOPHIE’s life and legacy reflects on the impact that "**BIPP**" had on her career and on the trajectory of music in the 21st century:

> "SOPHIE’s career took off almost immediately after the release of “**BIPP**,” which matched hi-res stutter-step production with pitched-up vocals in what would become a blueprint for adventurous pop music over the next seven years."

## **Lyrics**

**[Intro]**

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

If you let me

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

If you let me

**[Verse 1]**

However you're feeling

I can make you feel better

Whatever you're thinking

I can make it all clearer

Don't pretend you know that you feel it

Try so hard, but you can't conceal it

Whatever you feel inside

I can make you feel better

If that's what you want boy

Then you know where to find me

So

**[Chorus]**

I can make you feel better oh, if you let me

I can make you feel better ooh, if you want to

I can make you feel better oh, and you know you will

If that's what you want boy

Then you know where to find me

**[Verse 2]**

You've gotta be crazy

Thinking you could resist this

You know, yeah you know

You can't help yourself

I bet you can't take it

Yeah I'd like to just see you try

You should try, if you don't you might never know

How it tastes of love mmm

Sweet like whipped cream

Soft and smooth

Like you felt in your dreams

So whatever your heart desires

What you need

If that's what you want boy

Then you know where to find me

So

**[Chorus]**

I can make you feel better oh, if you let me

I can make you feel better ooh, if you want to

I can make you feel better oh, and you know you will

If that's what you want boy

Then you know where to find me

**[Bridge]**

(I can make you feel, I can make you feel)

Like you want to

(I can make you feel, I can make you feel)

You know you want to

(I can make you feel, I can make you feel)

Like you want to

**[Chorus]**

I can make you feel better, if you let me

I can make you feel better, if you want to

I can make you feel better, if you let me

I can make you feel, I can make you feel

If you let me

I can make you feel better oh, like you want to

I can make you feel better ooh, you know you want to

I can make you feel better oh, and you know you will

If that's what you want boy

Then you know where to find me

So

## **Trivia**

* In “**BIPP**,” like other songs on *Product,* SOPHIE uses intentionally vague lyrics to craft a catchy pop song that can be taken a variety of different ways. With these lines, the singer sounds coy, almost like she *could* be singing about sexual desire, specifically oral sex. Alternately, these lines could also refer to any manner of *products*, such as the fizzy mixture referenced in “**VYZEE**” or the titular beverage in “**LEMONADE**.” In typical SOPHIE fashion, she leaves the interpretation of these lines up to the listener.
