“Made Your Bed” is the debut single by Puerto-Rican American professional dancer turned singer-songwriter Anastacia Jarvez who is most known as one of the professional dancers on the American dance show Dancing With The Stars who is now branching out into the music industry world, she is also well-known as the younger sister of fellow Puerto-Rican American singer-songwriter Malik Jarvez. “Made Your Bed” is the dancers first offering in the world of music and was written by the 25 year-old herself and was produced by Marcus Palin alongside Anastacia herself. The track has a total runtime of three minutes and twenty seconds and is taken from “Livin’ Dangerously” which as of right now it is unclear if it is a full length debut album or an EP.
“Made Your Bed” is a pop and dance-pop song. Lyrically the song discusses how a man has fed you lies and you fell for them once but will never fall for them again, so now his made his bed and his going to lay in it. The track is feisty and infectious and is an all round girl power anthem due to the nature of the lyrical content.
Critical reception to the track has been mostly postive with many critics taking note of Anastacia’s vocal delivery. Adam Brickmoore of NME wrote in his review. “Dang this track came at us out of nowhere we are used to seeing this blonde bombshell on the dance floors of dancing with the stars but damn the girl can sang! That note towards the end is just flawless.” Alice DeMartin wrote in her review. “Famous siblings are always going to get compared but thankfully this track doesn’t have a Spanish version in sight so that immediately separates her from her older brother, this track is bouncy, danceable and has a great message lyrically, I can imagine the music video to this track just fully showing off Ana’s dance background and I am already here for it based on the track itself which is a solid debut.”. Gemma Hemswell wrote in her review. “Blonde check, killer body check, pretty face check, killer voice check, can dance her ass off check, Anastacia literally has all the traits and tools to be the next big thing, plus her brother is an absolute hunk beauty clearly runs in the family and so does vocal talent because this girl can definitely sing, I was half expecting an auto-tuned to the max track as she’s a well known dancer but gosh the girl can also sing color me jealous but also impressed by this debut…I predict big things…let’s just hope she doesn’t fall into the only famous because of her brother category because yes her brother is a famous singer but she was a famous dancer sling before he was a household name.”
Anastacia wrote:“Hey guys Ana here so you know I can dance, but did you know I can also sing too sure my brother is a big deal now but I had a love of music long before he became relevant, so here is something I have been working on a long time, I was super nervous about putting this out there stepping away from my dancer comfort blanket but I finally got the courage to do it, so here it is my debut “Made Your Bed” one for the girls, because let’s face it all guys feed us a bunch of lies just to cover their asses, so my bad bitches this one is for you, this is “Made Your Bed”, enjoy!
MADE YOUR BEDYou sold me dreams said they’d come true
Honey I was blinded by the clue
Tied up in your well-worn lies
Now I'm soaring while you apologize
You made your bed now lay in it tight
All your stories turned off the light
I’m not the girl I once was then
Never falling for that again
Your charm was silver but coated in rust
Turns out all your love was just dust
Thought you could play me over and over
But boy I’m done I’m closing that folder
You made your bed now lay in it tight
All your stories turned off the light
I’m not the girl I once was then
Never falling for that again
All your whispers just broke like glass
Fed me future while you sold the past
Held me hostage in your sweet facade
Now you’ll pray to a love that’s gone
You made your bed now lay in it tight
All your stories turned off the light
I’m not the girl I once was then
Never falling for that again
All your whispers just broke like glass
Fed me future while you sold the past
Held me hostage in your sweet facade
Now you’ll pray to a love that’s gone
You made your bed now lay in it tight
All your stories turned off the light
I’m not the girl I once was then
Never falling for that again
