“Eyes Closed” made its grand entrance during a week that also saw new releases from Khalid; Gorillaz feat. Trueno and Proof; Alemeda and Doechii; HAIM and Bon Iver and more.
Bringing together a pair of mega pop stars — a former member of One Direction plus one-fourth of BLACKPINK — “Eyes Closed” blends two recognizable voices in one emotional ballad. Fans of both both flooded in to vote in this week’s poll, and their support led the singers to a landslide victory.
“Time is standing still and I don’t wanna leave your lips/ Tracing my body with your fingertips,” JISOO begins on the track, to which Malik sings back, “I know what you’re feeling and I know you wanna say it/ I do too but we gotta be patient.”
“‘Cause someone like me/ And someone like you/ Really shouldn’t work, yeah, the history is proof/ Damned if I don’t/ Damned if I do,” they sing through a chorus about opening their hearts to new love. “Oh, we should fall in love with our eyes closed/ Better if we keep it where we don’t know/ The beds we’ve been in/ The names and the faces of who we were with.”
Among the new releases trailing behind “Eyes Closed” on the poll: Khalid’s After the Sun Goes Down, Gorillaz featuring Trueno and Proof’s “The Manifesto,” Alemeda and Doechii’s “Beat a B!tch Up,” HAIM and Bon Iver’s “Tie You Down” and A Boogie Wit da Hoodie’s “Part of Me.”
