“Cloud 9” by Beach Bunny featuring Tegan and Sara appears on 3 radio countdowns from 3 stations between 2021 and 2026. It was first released in 2020 on the album Honeymoon. Its best result is #63 on the 91X Top 91 Songs of 2021. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #354 alternative song of 2021.
"Cloud 9" is the closer on Honeymoon, Beach Bunny's debut album, and the third single pulled from it. Lili Trifilio has said she set out to write an honest, unabashedly gushy love song, and the band built it to match: the verses stay sparse, guitars tucked low so Jon Alvarado's drums and Anthony Vaccaro's bass do the driving, then everyone comes crashing in for the chorus, and there's a bass solo with a Strokes streak running through it. Trifilio wrote it with guitarist Matt Henkels, Alvarado and Vaccaro, and Joe Reinhart produced, engineered and mixed.
In March 2021 it caught fire on TikTok, which pushed it onto the charts in the US, Canada, Ireland and the UK, and a remix with Canadian duo Tegan and Sara followed that April.
