Songfacts®:

  • A club-ready banger with house EDM beats, catchy hooks, and a blend of spoken word and rap, "Crazy" was released as the lead single from Le Sserafim's EP of the same name on August 30, 2024.
  • The song is all about embracing your quirks, letting loose, and having a blast.

    "It's about moments when you discover something that you can go crazy about," Le Sserafim member Kazhua told Apple Music. "When I first saw the title I was like, 'Wow, that's pretty intense!' [laughs] During production, as we concentrated more and more on the songs, it occurred to me that 'Crazy' is a word that perfectly suits the music. The melody on this track has a great hook that gets you humming along to it, anytime and anywhere. It's perfect for when you need a burst of excitement or a boost in self-esteem."
  • The song was written and produced by Score, Megatone, Iluvjulia, and Big Hit Music founder "Hitman" Bang. Additional writers include Leven Kali, JBach, Jake Torrey, Supreme Boi, Anthony Watts, and Amanda "Kiddo A.I." Ibanez. Le Sserafim's own Huh Yun-jin and Sakura also added their touch to the lyrics, making it a true group effort!
  • Directed by Yunah Sheep, the video is all about embracing your inner weirdo and living life to the fullest with bucket loads of whimsical, fun moments (think satellite dish headgear and underwater choreography). The visual features dancers from the House of Juicy Couture, giving a nod to drag culture - a major inspiration for the song's unique vibe.
  • Le Sserafim teamed up with PinkPantheress for a remix that dropped on September 4, 2024. PinkPantheress contributes two fresh verses, taking the party vibe up a notch and encouraging everyone to dive into the nightlife. "I had a lot of fun jumping on this track with a beat that I hope everyone can get loose to," she shared.

    The new version of "Crazy" marks PinkPantheress' first big K-pop project after repeatedly expressing her deep love for the genre. "There was one year where I remember I would go to bed upset each day that I know I couldn't be a K-pop star," she revealed to i-D in a video interview. "At the time, I thought you had to be Korean to be a K-pop star. I used to cry myself to sleep, even though I can't perform like that. I can't dance at all. Like, I just love watching it."
  • Le Sserafim dropped a series of other remixes, including one with American ballroom performer Dashaun Wesley and a David Guetta-produced version.
