Erik Hassle, “Pathetic”

Out since February, this SOHN-produced song from Erik Hassle is exactly what I wish top 40 sounded like — the “I’m-so-e-mo-tion-al-ly needy, baby” part is one of the canniest little hooks of the year — and its new video, while relatively unremarkable, has gotten me singing this to myself all day all over again. (Previously, from Hassle, the absolutely killer Timberlake-ish “Talk About It.”)
