Cameron Sage From is a 17 year-old, emerging Toronto-based pop artist. Her second single “Superficial” is a remarkably catchy bop that will likely remind some listeners of the likes of Avril Lavigne, Taylor Swift and going back a bit, 80s pop — yeah, seriously, y’all. Anchored around a sleek arrangement of glistening synth oscillations, angular bursts of guitars, atmospheric synths, the hook-driven anthem proves to be an impressive vehicle for a young artist, who displays a self-assuredness beyond her relative youth.
At its core, the song features a narrator, that has caught on to the fact that a flame is a scrub, and that their interest in that flame has been extremely superficial. But rather than be self-flagellating, the narrator seems to laugh at her own foolishness and seemingly promises to do be better.
