Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers & The Linda Lindas join forces on ‘Please Me’

Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers have joined forces with The Linda Lindas for new collaborative single ‘Please Me.’ It’s the latest from I Love You Too – a deluxe of the band’s debut LP that’s out this Friday, September 20, via their new partnership with Mom + Pop Music. It’s a song about faking it till you make it, and it is high energy – we’re talking wall-to-wall gang vocals, tearing guitar riffs, and it goes for like one and a half minutes.

“’Please Me’ is about faking it till you make it,” say the band. “The lyrics are so cocky and overconfident, almost like an inner monologue of affirmations that you’d tell yourself on the way to a party. It’s about embodying the cool girl mindset until everyone has a big fat crush on you.

“These are the things you’d tell yourself and end up feeling sexy and cool and like everyone in the world is obsessed with you, even if you’re actually just super delusional and maybe had one too many Cruisers.”

The Linda Lindas included Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers’ debut album I Love You in their favorite albums of 2023 for Brooklyn Vegan. Which was a lovely surprise to the band, they’re longtime fans. When it came time to record ‘Please Me,’ Teen Jesus knew there was a call they had to make: “We just had to collaborate with The Linda Lindas on this one, because the musical style of ‘Please Me’ is very inspired by them! Their song ‘Oh!’ has been one of our favourites for a long time so we knew they could help take ‘Please Me’ to another level.”
