Danish pop sensation Theresa Rex is back, and she’s pouring her heart out in her latest single, Ugly Cry, out now. Known for her quirky, yet deeply genuine style, Rex once again captures the messy, raw emotions we all sometimes feel, packaging them into a scandipop gem that’s as catchy as it is relatable.

In Ugly Cry, Theresa taps into the universal experience of hitting that emotional tipping point — where one too many drinks turns into a full-blown, tear-streaked confession session on the bathroom floor. As she puts it, “Sometimes all you need to do is cry until the whole damn place is stuck under water.” And we’ve all been there, haven’t we?

The track is driven by a simple, yet infectious acoustic guitar melody, with a few carefully chosen elements that make it pop. The production, guided by the talented Jacob Buchardt, is minimal yet impactful, letting Theresa’s powerful voice take center stage.

Even if you don’t recognize her name immediately, you’ve almost certainly heard her voice. With over a billion streams, Rex is the unforgettable voice behind Martin Jensen’s global hit Solo Dance and Jonas Blue’s What I Like About You. As a songwriter, she’s penned tracks for international artists like Cheat Codes and AFROJACK, with whom she recently topped the US Dance Charts.

With Ugly Cry, Theresa Rex continues to prove that she’s not just a voice but an artist who connects deeply with her audience, offering them the perfect soundtrack for those all-too-relatable messy moments.
