"Gimme Love" was the third single from Nectar, the second album by Japanese-Australian singer-songwriter Joji, and 88rising sent it out on April 16, 2020. It's really two songs welded together at the seam. The first half, which Joji produced himself, is sticky, instant pop with a vocal that haunts rather than croons; then the floor gives way, and Bēkon and The Donuts take over the production for a somber, orchestral second act.
That hard left turn is the whole trick. A sugar rush of a single dissolves into something darker and heavier, and the song is better for refusing to settle on one mood.
