Unholy (feat. Sam Smith)

Kim Petras and Sam Smith's collaboration on 'Unholy' delves into the murky waters of infidelity and the hidden lives people lead behind closed doors. The song paints a vivid picture of a man engaging in illicit activities, unbeknownst to his unsuspecting partner. The lyrics 'Mummy don't know daddy's getting hot at the body shop, doing something unholy' suggest a clandestine affair, with 'body shop' serving as a metaphor for a place of physical indulgence and moral compromise.

The narrative unfolds through the perspective of an observer who is well aware of the man's deceitful actions. Lines like 'Dirty, dirty boy, you know everyone is talking on the scene' and 'I hear them whispering about the places that you've been' highlight the gossip and judgment surrounding the man's behavior. This creates a sense of tension and foreboding, as the truth is on the verge of being exposed. The repeated refrain emphasizes the secrecy and the potential fallout if the truth were to come to light.

The song also touches on themes of materialism and transactional relationships. The lyrics 'Give me love, give me Fendi, my Balenciaga daddy' and 'He get me Prada, get me Miu Miu like Rihanna' suggest a relationship built on material exchanges rather than genuine emotional connection. This further underscores the superficial and morally ambiguous nature of the man's actions. The song's catchy melody and provocative lyrics make it a compelling exploration of the darker aspects of human relationships and the consequences of living a double life.
