Depicting heartbreak following a brief yet intense relationship, “Hey Siri” is a resonating new single from Neon Massacre. The North Walian project is the moniker of singer/songwriter Chloe Ferguson, who melds poetic lyrical introspection with a catching folk/pop fusion. The result proves stirring, capturing a victim of heartbreak pouring their heart out to “her confidante, Siri,” and embarking on a quest for closure.
Dreamy piano and serene vocal introspection pair enjoyably, reflecting on the past while acknowledging present heartbreak. “He took me for a ride…” the vocals begin, then admitting: “I’m wondering how and when I’m gonna lose this feeling.” The heart-on-sleeve retrospective allure consumes consistently throughout. The “buried both my feet in the sand,” refrain is also memorable, gearing into more distortion-friendly guitar tones amidst the melodic piano prancing. An effervescent final section takes hold as well, featuring a brightened vocal enthusiasm and glistening piano trickling. “Hey Siri” is a memorable standout from Neon Massacre.
