I’ve always wanted to be something and my family and friends have supported it. My best friend’s mom even encouraged me. Lexi looks up to artists like Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez. “Taylor because she’s so wholesome and I can relate to her story and her music,” she says. “Selena, I’ve been watching her show on Disney since I was little. I love her music and songs as well.”

Oh, it's goin' down again

Gotta buy me a fresh outfit (fresh outfit)
Go to the barbershop and clean my face (clean my face)

The song "Friday" by Lexi St. George is a celebration of the end of the workweek and the freedom that comes with it. The first verse sets the scene of a person who has a hundred dollars burning in their pocket, a feeling of temptation that they know they should resist but can't help but indulge. The chorus then kicks in, expressing the singer's excitement that it's finally Friday and they're free again. They describe their plans for a wild weekend, with a "sugar baby" by their side and music in the air. The second verse conveys the after-effects of a fun weekend with the singer's head in a vice on Monday, wondering if they'll ever survive, but they know that come Friday, they'll be revving up their engine again.
The song taps into a relatable feeling of wanting to let loose after a long week of work. It's a reminder to take a break and have a good time, something that can be especially important during stressful times. The upbeat tempo and catchy chorus make it an anthem for those who long for the weekend to come. The lyrics highlight that there's more to life than just work and responsibilities, and that it's important to engage in some fun once in a while.

I'd watched it live on GMA, twice on here and love this song! I like Lexi's performance and she has a similar look of a young "Emma Watson" from the Harry Potter series! This girl will make more records and hopefully perform in a concert! Good job Lexi! =D

I LOVE THIS! I've known Lexi for the past six years and I can honestly say she is one of the most sincere people I know. She is extremely talented and I am so proud of her. She finally got the big break she's been waiting for! (:

It's not bad for kiddie-pop. I've been watching this story on GMA all week, and frankly, I'm impressed. I like the idea that talent can be cultivated in such a manner. I wish Lexi the best of luck. I hope she makes a second song, and shows all the haters this wasn't just a fluke.
