Whitney Whitney’s newest single begins not in a studio, but in a dream. “Does The Narcissist Need A Kiss?” opens with delicate piano and echoes of a memory—transformed into a full-blown song by a 3 AM writing session.

“The subject was a girl I used to know… It’s very near and dear to me,” Whitney shares. The lyrics, born from a moment between sleep and wakefulness, carry that same ephemeral energy.

The song’s visualizer adds to its storybook atmosphere. Like a memory unfolding frame by frame, it supports the piano’s gentle momentum and Whitney’s unguarded voice. Her style feels informed by classic poets as much as it is by Fiona Apple or Regina Spektor.

Raised between Connecticut and Manhattan, Whitney Whitney has shaped her artistry around literature, theater, and emotional honesty. That foundation shows in every lyric she writes and every melody she sings.

Produced by Justin Lucas, “Does The Narcissist Need A Kiss?” is both minimalist and cinematic—a rare combination that underscores Whitney’s unique pop identity. More than just a single, it marks a moment of clarity, told through art.
