“Ew,” the opening track to Nectar, sings of past relationships and how Joji wants to find someone in love who can stay with him forever, instead of constantly leaving and causing heartbreak. Fans have speculated¹ that it has something to do with “Yêu” (literally pronounced as ew) – meaning “Love” or “To love” in Vietnamese. Whether it is the case or not, it is interesting to note that this word both expresses potential disgust towards love and hints at the album’s name, implying that the Nectar has a bitter taste.
