Burn The Jukebox Tackles Intrusive Thoughts In Relatable Single “Not Me Being Crazy”

Renowned teen outfit Burn the Jukebox gears up to reveal their brutally honest and highly relatable track "Not Me Being Crazy" on all streaming platforms. A powerful and thought-provoking anthem, "Not Me Being Crazy" dives deep into the profound impact of intrusive thoughts, particularly on those battling conditions like OCD.

The band's bass player and lead vocalist on this track, Virginia, has had a personal journey with OCD, and this release marks the first time the band is publicly acknowledging it. The track draws parallels to the relentless loop of negative self-talk that can be amplified in toxic relationships marked by gaslighting. What sets it apart is the intriguing contrast between its heavy subject matter and an upbeat tempo, a compelling hook, and a bolder, edgier musical direction for Burn the Jukebox.
