Ava Max Puts Her 'Blood, Sweat & Tears' Into Two New Songs

Don't freak out: Ava Max, one of the primary breakout artists of 2019, just dropped a double dose of new music. And like "Sweet yet Pyscho" and "So Am I" before them, these two new tracks are certified bops.


On "Freaking Me Out," the VMA nominee sets a "scary although cute scene, describing a new relationship that has her completely losing her senses. Right now I hear sounds in the hallway / Rocking chairs are moving on their own / I'm falling for you / So much so that it's freaking me out," she sings. It's a softer side of Ava, yet those trademark growly vocals will keep you on your toes.


The second new track, "Blood, Sweat & Tears," chronicles a messy relationship that may take a page from Romeo & Juliet. "I'mma give you all my blood, sweat, tears / And any time it hurts I'm gonna stay right here," Max assures her partner, her voice growing more urgent with each turn. "Throw my heart out on the pavement, cut it up and take it / I just wanna perish with you."


In a press release, Max mentioned of her new music, "'Freaking Me Out' and 'Blood, Sweat & Tears' are two songs I am so excited to finally have out in world. The opening is about realizing that you're in love with someone to a degree that feels almost in back of your control and the second is about giving all of yourself to someone you love and sticking by their side no matter what."


Max's new releases come on the heels of her first-ever VMA nomination for Best New Artist, alongside Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, Lizzo, H.E.R., And Rosalía. Get voting now!
