Behind the Track: “Happy as Hell”
Why? Why?
Why am I so hard on myself?
I try
But all this trying just doesn’t help
With its dramatic backdrop and emotive vocals, “Happy as Hell” is an anthemic track that captures a universal sentiment that can happen at any point in our lives. When everything we do still doesn’t seem enough, even when we want to be better.
Madelline shares, “[Happy as Hell] is about feeling like you’re falling behind in life.” It uniquely fuses pop with theatrical undertones, creating a genre she calls “theatrical pop.” The song was created with the help of a talented pool of producers and songwriters, such as Arthur Besna, Jon Buscema, Jeoff Harris, Heather Jeanette, and fussy.
“Happy as Hell” is another lovely addition to Madelline’s growing discography, standing tall among fan-favorite songs. These hits include her bilingual double-single “dopamine,” which gained over 15 million streams since its 2023 release; and her dance pop track “i’m only here for the beat,” which claimed the top spot of Billboard’s Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart.
