This song was inspired by a girl who embodied the 1980s with her wardrobe, attitude, and look. After a short stint of love with her, I wanted to create a track that would honor our story as well as honor the feeling of loss that you have when things end unexpectedly. This upbeat track makes me want to dance and sing along. With a mention of modern day dating apps and the difficulty in finding someone new when you’re hung up on your last love story, this song is a contemporary twist on 1980s pop music. I produced this song alongside Jaron Crespi (YRON), a producer and music artist based in LA. Jaron and I met just a week after our break up, and he became as invested in the love story as I was at the time. After hearing the demo that I produced, Jaron took the idea and helped me create the sound environment that I wanted for the song to really come to life. Having written a plethora of songs in the past, this one is by far my favorite. It really encapsulates how I felt and still feel about the love story in a relatable way. I love that this song makes me want to dance and feel good. It has been the anthem of my summer, and although it tells a sad story, it leaves you feeling happy and heard.

Gillian Elyse – 9 weeks Lyrics
Since you left I’ve been spending all my time hesitating on a screen
And I know that I can find someone new
But I don’t wanna be
A girl’s
First date again don’t
Want her to tell her friends that
She found someone new
She has hope again ‘cause
She can’t have hope in me when I lost hope in you
You
And I’ll see her as a waste of time
Look back at the 9 weeks that you were mine
Wondering if I fucked it up too much to reach out again
And she’ll do nothing wrong to me
I’ll break her heart accidentally
She’ll leave and I’ll be
Right back in love with you
Baby, I was so scared of this
Because I’ve never been
Someone’s news to write home about and
You pushed me into this
And now you’re disappointed
I was never one to fall so fast
Oh, but I know for a fact
I jumped last
So where’d you go?
And I’ll see her as a waste of time
Look back at the 9 weeks that you were mine
Wondering if I fucked it up too much to reach out again
And she’ll do nothing wrong to me
I’ll break her heart accidentally
She’ll leave and I’ll be
Right back in love with you
I was scared of falling for you
‘Cause I knew that would mean I would lose you
And I’ll see her as a waste of time
Look back at the 9 weeks that you were mine
Wondering if I fucked it up too much to reach out again
And she’ll do nothing wrong to me
I’ll break her heart accidentally
She’ll leave and I’ll be
Right back in love with you
