Good Neighbours sharpen their direction, delivering a punchier edge track, Mary Jane. The production leans into quick bursts of rhythm and a hook that doesn’t settle. The chemistry between Oli Fox and Scott Verrill is tighter, with vocals sitting confidently over a more aggressive instrumental palette. It’s the kind of track that prioritizes feeling over perfection as adeliberate expansion of their sound. That decision pays off adding to its replay value. Speaking on the record, the duo frame it as part of a larger emotional thread:
'Mary Jane' feels like a step towards a new sound for us. We wrote it in about an hour while we were finishing up “Superstar”, and it almost feels like the second part of the narrative. It’s about that feeling of being completely infatuated with someone, when you’re so drawn to them but have no idea how to approach them. It’s intoxicating.
There’s a clear shift in how the duo handle emotion here, moving away from the clarity of Superstar into something more unsettled and instinct-driven. That contrast works in their favor, giving the record a sense of movement rather than repetition. The video centers on an awkward attempt at connection from Harv Pearson, who builds the concept around discomfort rather than confidence. Beyond the single, the duo continue to scale their presence with a packed run of festival appearances, including Summersonic and Parklive, positioning this release within a broader global push.
