Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Cheryl Waters, host of the Midday Show on KEXP, is "Flip It" by Bleached, a 2022 self-released single.
Los Angeles-based sibling duo Bleached return with a pop-punk pep talk, inspired by television dialogue and self care.
“I heard this quote on Euphoria," Jennifer Clavin said in a press release, "‘Every day you get out of bed is an act of courage.' I really related that to the lyrics. During the time of writing this song, I felt like I had to find my inner warrior to make it through another day in LA.”
Her sister Jessie adds, "“I was thinking of the way I speak to myself and I never realized how hard I could be on myself. I'm becoming way more aware of my inner voice. When I’m going through a day and I'm just feeling extra challenged, I now think about flipping it.”
