We’re stuck inside, and there’s no shortage of articles covering how quarantine is making people feel a way about love and intimacy, or creating a general longing for a sense of connection. Jessie Ware’s “Save a Kiss” is the electric bop that gets where we are right now. “High anticipation, it’s an emotional trap,” the song begins over a synth-pop beat, and your heart starts to race. “Save a kiss for me tonight, wait for me no compromise,” the chorus rings. By now, you’re twirling, texting the lyrics to your lover, or both. Either way, in the age of social distancing, we’re all hoping someone will “save a little bit of your lovin’” for us, even if we can’t say for how long. —Virginia Lowman
