New Music Friday: Zara Larsson Drops Irresistible New Banger “Crush”

Happy New Music Friday! August 15, 2025 is here, and pop sensation Zara Larsson is back with her latest single, Crush, released via Sommer House/Epic.

Bubbly yet confessional, Crush fuses Zara’s sparkling vocals with Zhone and Margo XS’s polished, contemporary pop production. The track captures that fluttery, heart-in-your-throat feeling of a secret crush — all late-night texting, butterflies, and the thrill of something that’s exciting yet off-limits.

Lyrically, it’s a playful exploration of longing, temptation, and the grey areas of “what could be,” all wrapped in a bright, addictive pop package. It’s the kind of song you want on repeat during daytime daydreams, while scrolling through your phone, or on those quiet evenings when you’re reminiscing about unspoken feelings.

Whether you’re chasing the rush of a first crush or just love a smart, catchy pop tune, Crush is perfect for your “feel-good pop” playlist.
