The story behind
If there's one thing that stands out in Lie To Girls it's how Sabrina Carpenter turns frustration into a catchy rhythm. The song doesn't sound like a complaint, but rather a sharp blow: every verse is a reminder that lies in a relationship aren't one-sided. It's not just her lying, but also the one receiving those lies. The hook lies in that duality, in the way the melody sways between sweetness and sharpness, as if pop were the perfect disguise for a direct message.
They recorded it in August 2024, during an intense week of sessions at the studios. Jack Antonoff handled the production, while Serban Ghenea, along with Ruairi O’Flaherty, polished the sound in recording and mixing. The result is a track that, in just 3 minutes and 22 seconds, manages to condense that mix of vulnerability and strength running through the entire Short n' Sweet album. It's no coincidence that, upon its release, it shot straight to position 41 on the Billboard Hot 100, cementing Sabrina as one of her highest-charting songs on that list.
