Can't Catch Me Now

Last updated

"Can't Catch Me Now" is 3 minutes and 25 seconds long. Nigro produced and mixed the song, and he engineered it with Dylan Waterhouse. Nigro played guitar, keyboards, bass, and Mellotron; Paul Cartwright conducted the string arrangement and played viola and violin; and Chappell Roan provided the background vocals. Randy Merrill mastered the song. [26]

"Can't Catch Me Now" is a folk rock and chamber-folk ballad [14] [27] [28] driven by acoustic guitar instrumentation. [29] The song opens with that instrument as the sole accompaniment to Rodrigo's voice and subsequently includes strings. [30] She harmonizes with herself on it, which Stereogum 's Chris DeVille described as "piercing". [27] "Can't Catch Me Now" employs a melody which gradually rises to a slow crescendo, [31] and the intensity escalates when Rodrigo belts the titular line over orchestral instrumentation: "You can't, you can't catch me now." [30] Her voice ascends while singing the line "Coming like a storm into your town." [28] [a] The song ramps up and reaches an intense climax, after which Rodrigo sings the final line with "an open, unresolved cadence", according to Consequence 's Carys Anderson and Jo Vito. [27] [30]

The lyrics of "Can't Catch Me Now" are written from Lucy Gray Baird's perspective, inspired by the plot of The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. [12] [33] They are about vengeance and the narrator's inescapable presence in the subject's life. [31] [34] [35] The first verse describes scenes like snowfall and mountains, as the narrator wonders that the subject probably expected them to become less furious over time. [36] In the chorus, they taunt the subject that, despite being everywhere, the latter would not be able to capture them: "But I'm in the trees, I'm in the breeze / My footsteps on the ground / You'll see my face in every place / But you can't catch me now." [34] [35] Rodrigo then sings "Coming like a storm into your town", [a] which Steffanee Wang of Nylon interpreted as a reference to Lucy Gray Baird. [28] During the song's conclusion, Rodrigo alludes to the film again: "Yeah, sometimes the fire you founded / Don't burn the way you'd expect / Yeah, you thought that this was the end." [30]

Critical reception

Music critics were positive about "Can't Catch Me Now" and believed its folk-influenced production suited Rodrigo. [9] [37] [38] Vanity Fair 's Rob Ledonne described the song as emotional and compelling, noting that it showcased her talent in folk music and marked "one more step towards Rodrigo's world domination". [9] Alex Hopper of American Songwriter believed it was alluring, shocking, and "one of her most interesting songs to date". [38] Though he thought "Can't Catch Me Now" represented a change in Rodrigo's sound, it also felt natural of her and Nigro. [38]

Critics believed "Can't Catch Me Now" resembled the ballads on her own albums, and Billboard 's Jason Lipshutz opined it formed an earnest addition to the soundtrack and her discography. [27] [39] Some reviewers, like Anderso, Vito, and The New Zealand Herald 's Alana Rae, praised Rodrigo's vocal performance. [30] [40] Liberty Dunworth of NME called her voice "haunting", [8] and Wang believed it "soars into the treetops". [28] Ledonne, Anderson, and Vito thought the melodies were luxurious, [9] [30] and others described the acoustic instrumentation as intense. [27] [29]

[43] It received nominations for Best Original Song at the 2023 North Carolina Film Critics Association [44] and the 2024 Gold Derby Film Awards, [45] as well as the 2024 Guild of Music Supervisors Award for Best Song Written and/or Recording Created for a Film [46] and Best Song Written for Visual Media at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.

[69] [34] The cinematic video intersperses clips of Rodrigo with scenes from The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. [35] [37] It begins with a camera tracking shot being guided inside an isolated cabin, where she performs the song on a guitar while perched on a bed. [7] [35] After strolling through the cabin, Rodrigo leaves it and runs through a field of grass in a white dress during the bridge. She also sings the chorus during this sequence: "You'll see my face in every place / But you can't catch me now." [34] [37] Scenes depicting Blyth and Zegler portraying their characters play out simultaneously. In the final scene, sunlight falls upon Rodrigo. [7] [37]
