Review: "KISS & TELL" - Mackenzie Maughan


Mackenzie Maughan KISS & TELL Cover Art


KISS & TELL is an electrifyingly catchy track that just about all of us can relate to. Maughan calls out to all of the insufferable exes of the world that make the process of moving on seem a lot harder than it has to be. Singing from her own experience, Maughan’s lyrics are vulnerable and sincere, capturing the achiness of a recently broken heart. She perfectly describes the dilemma of wishing your ex the best while they try to flaunt their new relationships and make you jealous, singing, “You’re not even with me but you still hurt me.” In a perfect world, we wouldn’t have to worry about our former partners kissing and telling, but Maughan sings of the bitter reality many of us face. With impressive vocals and genuine lyrics, Maughan's music encapsulates our emotions, giving listeners an outlet to channel their feelings of frustration, heartache, and sorrow.





KISS & TELL takes us on a wild journey, simulating the emotional roller coaster we ride post-breakup. The song starts fairly calm, with Maughan's somber voice reflecting on the pain of watching someone you love move on. As the chorus approaches, the instrumental grows alongside our anticipation and adrenaline, preparing us for a fiery punk-rock melody. The backing drums accompany the electric guitar and transform the song into an angsty pop anthem that makes you want to turn the volume up to the max! Even though breakups sting, we have Maughan's memorably energetic track to get stuck in our heads and help us forget those petty exes.
