Maddie Ettrich’s “OH MY GOD I THINK I’M DYING” Is the Chaos Anthem Your Feelings Have Been Waiting For

If you’ve ever felt like your emotions were staging a full-blown musical in your chest — welcome. Maddie Ettrich just released the soundtrack. Her new single, “OH MY GOD I THINK I’M DYING,” is the indie-pop daydream that crashes, swells, whispers, and screams exactly what it feels like to love, lose, and completely lose your mind in the process.

Let’s be honest — that title alone deserves its own mood board. And true to form, the song is just as wild and wonderful as it sounds.

Starting with a soft, dreamy shimmer of guitar and Maddie’s sweetly raspy vocals, “OH MY GOD I THINK I’M DYING” lures you in with a kind of delicate vulnerability. It feels like she’s confessing something she hasn’t even told her best friend yet. There’s a shoegaze haze, a fragile mood, and then—just when you’re floating—BOOM. The emotion kicks in, the energy explodes, and suddenly you’re right there with her, screaming into your steering wheel like a soundtrack moment from your favorite coming-of-age movie.

What makes this track so addicting isn’t just the title or the vibes — it’s how real it feels. Maddie uses that epic phrase, “oh my god I think I’m dying,” twice — once like she’s melting from the heat of a moment, completely wrapped up in love, and the second time like she’s breaking apart under the weight of that same love gone sideways. It’s dizzying. It’s devastating. And it’s so relatable.

The structure of the song? Anything but predictable. It shifts gears like your brain at 2 a.m. — from tender reflection to emotional overload. But every turn feels intentional, every word honest. It’s chaotic, sure, but never messy. It’s just how being fragile in love actually feels.

This track also marks a major moment in Maddie Ettrich’s evolution — welcome to her Bunny Grunge era. Think raw lyricism, layered electric guitars, and a voice that balances sweetness with unfiltered angst. Raised in Virginia, now repping Ontario, Canada, Maddie brings a mix of DIY spirit, punk emotion, and alt-pop finesse that lands somewhere between your favorite bedroom-pop artist and the frontwoman of the next great grunge revival.

“OH MY GOD I THINK I’M DYING” isn’t a love song. It’s not a breakup song. It’s a what-is-even-happening-to-me song. And that’s exactly what makes it perfect.

So go ahead — cry to it, dance to it, scream the chorus in your bathroom mirror. Whatever you do, just feel it. Maddie already did the hard part by putting those feelings into words.

Listen to “OH MY GOD I THINK I’M DYING” now. Warning: emotional whiplash incoming — but in the best way possible.
