The song’s upbeat energy is mirrored in the accompanying visuals, creating a synergy that captivates from start to finish.
About the track by Lightheaded:
“Not to get to VH1 Behind The Music but… ‘Bright Happy Girls’ was written on the fly, in Cynthia’s basement at a practice four years ago.
Sara was there, which was the first time we ever wrote with her.
Stephen was just playing a really simple progression with that sorta stabbing stacatto rhythm, and Sara just started to play this wonderful swelling and bursting guitar line over it.
I remember having these images floating around in my head during this period “sprinting then shapeshifting” and “bright happy girls”… I guess I worry that song doesn’t really make too much sense!
To me, it’s sort of about the feeling of running around with Cynthia, Sara, and Jo while the world turns.”
