In 2014, she released Catch on Soundcloud, which Katy Perry tweeted about, providing an instant audience. Prime and Bitch followed. EP CollXtion I was released in April 2015, with an accompanying residency at the Phi Centre in Montreal from April 30 to May 2. In 2015, she also co-wrote several tracks on Troye Sivan's Blue Neighborhood, and toured with him as an opening act.
Hughes has been praised for her voice, multimedia artistic endeavors, fan participation, and engaging live performances.
Susie Save Your Love
Allie X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She's way too drunk to drive
But oh, she's such a sight to see
Marshall is the problem
She's been trying to solve him
Someone needs to set her free
Oh no, she's waiting for no one
I'm a block away
Save your love
For someone like me
You don't have to be a part-time Susie
Save your love
And take mine from me (Susie)
You don't have to be a part-time
Save your love
Susie, save your love
Susie's riding shotgun
Saying that I'm no fun
Says she's not ready to sleep
Marshall makes her angry
So she's trying to make me
Drive her up and down his street
Oh no, she's waiting for no one
Hold on, hold on
We're a block away
Save your love
For someone like me
You don't have to be a part-time Susie
Save your love
And take mine from me (Susie)
You don't have to be a part-time
Save your love
Susie, save your love
Susie, save your love
Susie, save your love
Susie, save your love
(Save your love)
Save your love
(Save your love)
The lyrics to Allie X's song "Susie Save Your Love" tell the story of a woman named Susie who is struggling with a toxic relationship and turns to drinking as a coping mechanism. She asks for a ride because she's too drunk to drive, but in reality, she is trying to go and confront her partner named Marshall. Susie believes that Marshall is her problem and she is determined to solve him, but the singer of the song (presumably someone who has feelings for Susie) encourages her to save her love for someone who will love her properly and not someone who is a part-time lover. He recognizes that Susie is worth more than what she is settling for with Marshall.
Throughout the song, there is a tension between Susie's desires for Marshall and what she deserves in a healthy relationship. She wants to be loved by Marshall and is taking out her frustrations on the singer in the car with her. However, the singer recognizes that the love she deserves will not come from someone like Marshall and encourages her to save her love for someone who will love her completely.
Overall, the song is a powerful commentary on toxic relationships and how individuals settle for less than they deserve in love. It is a reminder to prioritize self-love and not to give in to the pressures of a toxic relationship.
