debut single - wish you were hotter
❤️🔥 COMING IN HOT ❤️🔥
Sam Davs (Ottawa, ON) is heating things up with the release of her country/rock debut single "Wish You Were Hotter."
This sassy tune comes after being told by a guy that if she was "just a little bit hotter" he would have dated her. What a dick.
Igniting a fire inside, she wanted to take back the word and give it a new meaning. Telling her story about how he would have been hotter if he were a better person on the inside--the song is an empowering-eff- -you-kick-ass girl anthem that you can scream at the top of your lungs or send to your ex that you really don't like.
