“1:15” is a bright and sparkly hyperpop song about having a crush, but being hesitant to admit it. 8485 seems to take inspiration from “Lady A’s Need You Now”, most notably in the second verse.
[Verse 1]
I'm getting butterflies, like, what the hell?
When I'm still feeling right all by myself
You never notice and it's just as well
I need to focus on my health, need to focus on my health
But when I don't have anything to do
Sometimes I sit around and think of you
It's so embarrassing, but girl, it's true
What would you tell me if you knew? What would you tell me if you knew?
So, you think that you have nice hands?
I still know where I stand
Talk to me at night if you're ever bored
High school Ojou
Everybody knows you
Anywhere you go, you could be adored
And it hurts my pride when you make me smile
'Cause they fall all over you, like all the time
And when they chill, it's fine
Don't wanna make you mine
Or be another silly girl who's got you on her mind
[Bridge]
I'm just another silly girl who's got you on her mind
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I think of you a lot
But don't worry, 'cause it's not like I need you now
I'm not tryna be your man
I'd just like to hold your hand next time we hang out
And I wanna be your friend
I don't wanna let it get out and freak you out
I'm not tryna be your man
I'd just like to hold your hand next time we hang out
Yeah, I think of you a lot
But don't worry, 'cause it's not like I need you now
I'm not tryna be your man
I'd just like to hold your hand next time we hang out
[Outro]
And I don't do love
I just know someone who I can think about
1:15 was written by 8485.
1:15 was produced by FROMTHEHEART & VALENTINE & underscores & Lunamatic.
8485 has confirmed this song is about her fellow Hyperpop associate, blackwinterwells.
The last verse mimics the chorus structure of “Need You Now” by Lady Antebellum. In the song, the lead singer says “a quarter after one” (1:15), which could be the reason why the song is titled 1:15.
