MORE Indie Invaders / POSTED BY: KINGSOFAR

Euphoric, neon-lit pop takes center stage on Get You High, the latest release from blondfire, and it feels tailor-made for repeat listens. Built on shimmering synths and an infectious, post-punk–tinged bass line, the track channels an unmistakable ’80s flair while keeping its footing firmly in modern Europop.

blondfire—aka Erica Driscoll—leans confidently into contrast here. The song is bright and euphoric on the surface, but there’s a subtle emotional pull underneath, giving it depth without dimming the fun. Her vocal delivery slides effortlessly between sweetness and strength, striking a balance that recalls classic pop cool while sounding entirely current.

The track’s glossy, romantic energy makes its inclusion in the official trailer for Emily in Paris feel almost inevitable. “Get You High” carries that same jet-set sparkle—stylish, carefree, and emotionally aware—making it as fitting for a late-night drive as it is for a dance floor moment with friends.

At its core, the song is about optimism with honesty. “This song is about wishing only good things for someone you love,” Driscoll explains, “but letting them know that you’ll be there for them through the bad stuff, too.” That sentiment gives the track heart, elevating it beyond pure escapism.

Sonically, “Get You High” sits comfortably alongside timeless pop influences like Heart of Glass and I Love It, blending retro cool with modern confidence. From a discovery standpoint, it fits seamlessly into Spotify playlists such as New Music Friday, Pop Rising, Dance Pop, Synthwave Pop, Retro Pop, Feel-Good Pop, and fashion-forward, upbeat editorial playlists tied to TV and film culture.

With “Get You High,” blondfire delivers exactly what great pop should: joy, polish, and just enough emotional nuance to keep you coming back.
