Jordy Alexander has released his latest single, “I Can’t Sleep In,” a haunting, stripped-back track that explores the restless anxiety of longing. The song, which clocks in at just under three minutes, paints an intimate portrait of sleepless nights shaped by doubt, desire, and reflection.
From the opening bars, Alexander sets a mood of solitude and vulnerability. Soft guitar lines and understated synths create a fragile soundscape that draws listeners in. The minimal arrangement mirrors the emotional weight at the heart of the song. His delicate vocals, at times cracking with feeling, drift over the gentle instrumentation. The line “I can’t sleep in when you’re on my mind” captures the song’s confessional tone, with Alexander sounding as if he’s sharing a private thought meant only for the night.
Lyrically, the song traces the endless loops of overthinking familiar to anyone who has wrestled with heartbreak or longing. The repetition within the lyrics echoes the cycle of sleeplessness that refuses to break. Subtle percussion adds momentum in the choruses, giving shape to the rising tension.
“I Can’t Sleep In” showcases Alexander’s strength as a songwriter capable of crafting raw, introspective pop. The production stays spare, allowing the emotion to lead. The track leaves a lingering sense of unanswered questions and quiet ache.
