The track is already starting to do quite well on US Pop Radio. This Zedd collaboration has worked quite well for Steinfeld, who now has another strong and radio friendly single on her hands. “I didn’t know that I was starving ’till I tasted you” The track quite nicely describes the feelings of a young love story. What happens when those cheesy but effective lyrics, Hailee’s solid vocals and the production come together is a really laid-back, dreamy and summery love anthem. Most memorable line, although really cheesy but extremely fitting: “Don’t need no butterflies when you give me the whole damn zoo” But given the fact that this is a Zedd track and the breakdown is probably a bit of a signature stamp, I think we can look over that slight critique. Even though the breakdown doesn’t change the pace of the song, as it also carries that laid-back sound, it seems slightly out of place and quite frankly a bit unnecessary. From the verses, consisting only of a guitar riff, the usual snaps and Hailee’s vocals, the chorus changes pace with a significantly bigger production, which then transitions into an EDM breakdown. The influences of different genres, going from EDM all the way to a slight “folky” vibe, blend in extremely well, which is certainly the work of a good production team behind the track. The guitar driven intro gives the song a very laid-back vibe, and although it picks up in tempo later this vibe is present throughout the track and quite frankly gives the song its identity. Interestingly, “Starving” does not sound like your usual Zedd produced track. The EP is being re-released with the addition of new single “Starving” as a bonus track. Next to the lead single, “Haiz” included “You’re Such A”, “Hell No’s And Headphones” and the second single “Rock Bottom”.
