LOS ANGELES – American singer and songwriter Sabrina Carpenter explained the inspiration behind her new single ‘Manchild’.
Fans believe that Sabrina’s new single is aimed at her ex-boyfriend, Barry Keoghan, who is an Irish Actor.
After releasing the single, Sabrina shared the making details of the track on her Instagram. She wrote this track with Jack Antonoff and Amy Allen shortly after releasing her blockbuster sixth album, Short n’ Sweet.
She wrote, “I wrote manchild on a random tuesday with Amy and Jack, not too long after finishing Short n’ Sweet, and it ended up being the best random tuesday of my life.” She also added, “Not only was it so fun to write, but this song became to me something I can look back on that will score the mental montage to the very confusing and fun young adult years of life.”
She further described the new track as the “embodiment of a loving eye roll”. Sabrina further wrote, “It sounds like the song embodiment of a loving eye roll, and it feels like a never-ending road trip in the summer! Hence why I wanted to give it to you now – so you can stick your head out the car window and scream it all summer long!”
Sabrina ended her caption by expressing gratitude to her fans for their support. She added, “And thank you, men, for challenging me!!” (followed by a pig emoji and a white heart emoji). The singer also shared images from the music video for her song, along with a photo of herself embracing songwriters Jack and Amy.
Sabrina fans believe that the track is aimed at Barry Keoghan as the couple reportedly ended their relationship in December last year after dating each other for a year.
When Sabrina announced the song in her Instagram post, she wrote in the caption, “This one’s about you!”
