Rex Orange County - Sunflower

Review by Anthony Drago

Sunflower by Rex Orange County: A Bloomin’ Good Listen Let’s cut to the chase—Rex Orange County’s Sunflower isn’t your run-of-the-mill pop album. Released back in 2017, this little gem blends bits of funk, soul, and alternative vibes into a sound that feels like wearing your favorite hoodie: cozy but still kinda cool. And yeah, it’s self-released under his own label because who needs gatekeepers when you’re making music this good? Now, let’s talk tracks. The title track “Sunflower” hits you with all the warmth of a summer day without being cheesy about it. It’s got this laid-back groove that sneaks up on you, kinda like realizing you’ve been humming it for hours without even noticing. There’s something about those mellow horns (yes, horns!) and Rex’s buttery vocals that just clicks. You know how some songs feel like they were made for Instagram stories? This one feels like it was made for real life. Then there’s “Loving Is Easy,” which is basically the musical equivalent of eating pancakes in bed—a sweet, syrupy treat that somehow doesn’t make you feel gross afterward. With its bouncy bassline and playful lyrics, it sticks in your brain like gum on a hot sidewalk. Honestly, I think my cat started bobbing her head to it after the third listen. That’s how infectious it is. What makes Sunflower stand out isn’t just its genre mashup or Rex’s voice—it’s the vibe. It’s not trying too hard to impress anyone, and that’s what makes it so damn likable. Listening to it feels like hanging out with an old friend who says awkward stuff but always means well. So here’s the kicker: if plants could sing, I’m pretty sure they’d sound like Rex Orange County. Weird thought, right? But hey, maybe next time you water your houseplants, throw this album on—you might just help them grow faster. Or at least give ‘em something nice to vibe to while they photosynthesize.

Uh, get down is a sexual term.
When a sex addict is told "quick take him down." He's interpreting it as quick, pull your pants down and insert your penis into the patients butthole and f**k him hard until you creamcorn him.
Cream as in cream pie.
Corn as in Cornhole.

I want to know
Where I can go
When you're not around
And I'm feeling down
So won't you stay for a moment
So I can say
I, I need you so
'Cause right now you know that nothing here's new
And I'm obsessed with you
Then I fell to the ground
And you smiled at me and said
I don't wanna see you cry
You don't have to feel this emptiness
She said I love you till the day that I die
Well maybe she's right
'Cause I don't wanna feel like I'm not me
And to be honest I don't even know why
I let myself get down in the first place
Tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflower still grows at night
Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
Make it down down, do-do-down
Diggy dig down, du du du du
Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
You know you need to get yourself to sleep and dream
A dream of you and I
There's no need to keep an open eye
I promise I'm the one for you
Just let me hold you in these arms tonight
I'm lucky to be me and you can see it in my face
Back when I fucked my shit up too many times
Why would I let myself get down in the first place
Tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflower still grows at night
Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
Make it down down, do-do-down
Diggy dig down, du du du
Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
And so she sat me down and told me that I didn't have to cry
Said I didn't need to get down and feel empty inside
And told me that she'll love me for as long as she's alive
And well, maybe she's right, 'cause I hate it when I feel like I'm not me
See, I honestly, don't even know why
I, I honestly don't even know why
Tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflower still grows at night
Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
Make it down down, do-do-down
Diggy dig down, du du du
Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
