With her latest single “Anxious To Love You,” METTE continues to prove she’s one of pop’s most visually and emotionally compelling rising artists.
The track pairs shimmering synth-pop textures with a quietly powerful vocal, capturing the uneasy thrill of falling in love while fearing the vulnerability that comes with it. It’s intimate but cinematic, a balance METTE has made her signature. The accompanying video, directed by Andre Muir, leans into that tension.
Shot in a gritty alleyway, the visual uses stark black-and-white imagery and expressive choreography to mirror the song’s emotional push-and-pull. As the video unfolds, the monochrome gradually shifts into colour, symbolising the release that comes with embracing those feelings.
That physical storytelling isn’t accidental. Before stepping into the spotlight as a solo artist, METTE built her reputation as a dancer and performer, and that background still shapes her music. Every release feels designed to be experienced visually as well as sonically.
With a debut album on the horizon and a growing catalogue of striking visuals, “Anxious To Love You” feels like another confident step forward. If this single is any indication, METTE is an artist whose world is only just beginning to unfold.
