Managing to blend endearing teenage charm with a wisdom beyond her years, the track opens with the relatable statement we all secretly contemplate, “do you ever get that feeling where nothing seems to be going your way?”, as the warm pop number bubbles with raw, heartfelt song writing that reminds us that things are never as bad as they seem.
Annissa comments on the first spark of inspiration for the track, adding: “I had always wanted to write a song which perfectly matched the feeling when nothing in life seems to be going your way since it’s such a universal experience which every single person has felt at least once in their lifetime, so when I stumbled over the title “ice cream mess” I thought it was such a vivid description of how at times life can feel as though you are a melted ice cream, once a perfectly shaped scoop til you and your sprinkles go melting all over the ground.”
Having been classically trained at the piano since the age of four and influenced by classical legends like Mozart and Chopin to pop punk contemporaries, this 15-year-old talent with her nuanced sound, lined equally with fun-filled adventures and philosophical reflections, is absolutely a teen pop sensation in the making.
