Kayla Silverman doesn’t just sing about heartbreak, she dresses it up in glitter, eyeliner, and a full dose of theatrical flair. The New York-based glam-pop princess has a knack for romanticizing the messiness of love, and her latest single, “Stuck Between”, proves that no one captures the absurdity of late-night texting and post-breakup mania quite like her.


The song dives into that all-too-relatable space where you’re hoping he doesn’t text back, but also praying he does. It’s playful, self-aware, and a little unhinged, exactly the kind of honesty you want in your twenties when love feels like a roulette wheel. With only two weeks on streaming platforms, “Stuck Between” has already racked up over 10,000 streams, cementing itself as one of those songs you put on repeat when you need to laugh at your own questionable decisions.


Silverman, who was trained as an opera singer before embracing her self-proclaimed “glam-pop” identity, draws inspiration from Kate Bush, Queen, and Chappell Roan. Her music mixes the drama of operatic vocals with the shimmering energy of disco and 80s pop, like stepping into a renaissance painting but with a disco ball spinning overhead.


But if the song itself wasn’t entertaining enough, the music video takes things to another level. Directed by Eli Eisenstein, the satirical short film shows Silverman in full campy chaos mode, chasing the paperboy, seducing a missionary, and even murdering the pizza delivery driver. It’s over-the-top, hilarious, and perfectly in line with her absurdist visual style. Silverman has always leaned into her comedic side in her videos, and here, she fully embraces the role of the “crazy ex-girlfriend” with unapologetic gusto.


Beyond the humor, “Stuck Between” carries a deeper resonance. The track is about more than just texting an ex; it’s about being pulled between past and future, between people you once loved and the person you’re still becoming. The lyrics remind us that memories and mistakes often shape how we move forward, even when we know we should let go. Kayla’s soaring vocals and lush melodies keep you dancing through the drama, even as you’re nodding along to the truth of it all.



With each release, Kayla Silverman proves that glam-pop isn’t just about sparkles and nostalgia, it’s about telling stories that make us feel human in all our contradictions. “Stuck Between” is a perfect snapshot of those messy in-betweens, turning heartbreak into something you can sing, dance, and laugh your way through.
