Wasted Energy - Abz Winter (Rock Pop) In her latest record, Abz Winter is done wasting her energy on a frustrating relationship that can’t seem to find it’s peaceful center, or at least stay there for long enough to be worth it. In short, “Wasted Energy” is a perfect pop bop infused with rock sensibility and feels perfectly at home on today’s Top 40. It’s incredibly catchy, anthemic and rousing, with a great build throughout, reminding us at times of a Charlie XCX cut. We particularly enjoyed the strength of Abz’s vocals—strong and mature with some serious power behind them. They also showcase versatile, ranging from up close and personal to a big belt. This is a sing along in the shower type of jam.

Best Lyric: “We’d argue all the time, and then we’d never speak at all.”
