Lily Mae Harrington leans into her “psychedelic Alanis Morrissette side” on “Salty.” The spirited, punk-y pop song relates a tale of an ex who conveniently has a new lover so soon after the breakup that he’s showing off on his Instagram account including photos with his family. She’s wearing Harrington’s shirt that he stole too. The lame indignities are a dozen and more with this guy. But Harrington gets graphic about how they met and how he’s up to the same moves with his new girlfriend that he did with Harrington because of course he is. Typical. Harrington’s line “And I’m mad that you’re happy” is delivered with such cathartic zeal even in the end when she near whispers it just owns the anger and outrage while letting it go at least a little. Many of us have been there and Harrington gives a righteous fury and infectious melody to those heated emotions.
