“ | 'My My My!' is a song of liberation, freedom, and love. Throw all inhibition to the wind, be present in your body, love wholeheartedly, move the way you've always wanted to, and dance the way you feel — hopefully even to this song. | ” |
— Troye Sivan[1]

"My My My!" is the second track from Troye Sivan's sophomore studio album, Bloom. It was released as the lead single on January 10, 2018 through EMI Australia and Capitol Records.

"Do you know what Joe & The Juice is? It’s a sandwich and juice spot in Europe, but I saw one in New York the other day. I was there, and I went to the bathroom, and I was peeing. The speaker was kind of bad, but I could hear the low end of this song and it just had this really really cool groove that made me want to strut. I was like, “That could be fun for the studio today.” Because I didn’t know what we were going to write about. So I Shazamed the song, don’t remember what it is. I could probably look at my Shazam history, but I found out what the song was and took it into the studio and we used the BPM of that song and a similar kick pattern and It immediately started to feel really good.
I think a big part of writing this album for me was trying to figure out what an upbeat me song sounds like, because I didn’t really know where that was going to sit. I was writing with my best friend, Leland. We were going through phrases. I wanted the song to be like an exclamation of love and joy. He said, “Oh my.” Or something like that and then we were like “Oh my my my.” When he said it, I just loved the way that it sounded and I loved the way that it felt when it was coming out of my mouth. Then immediately the melody came to us and the chorus kind of wrote itself first."
Sivan's boyfriend at the time, Jacob Bixenman, inspired the optimistic attitude of "My My My!". The song was first teased on January 4, 2018, and a countdown for the release appeared in Times Square soon after. Four days later, he teased the title of the song on Twitter[2] along with a picture of hot air balloon that he had taken on the same day he recorded the track in June 2017.[3]
Lyrics[]
Shine on, diamond
Don't make me wait another day
'Cause passion is passion
You know it just as well as me
Now, let's stop running from love
Running from love
Let's stop, my baby
Let's stop running from us
Running from us
Let's stop, my baby
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Spark up, buzz cut
I got my tongue between your teeth
Go slow, no, no, go fast
You like it just as much as me
Now, let's stop running from love
Running from love
Let's stop, my baby
Let's stop running from us
Running from us
Let's stop, my baby
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Oh my, my, my!
My, my, my!
Should be the last night ever
Should be the last night we're apart
Got my name on this treasure
On this treasure
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Oh my, my, my!
I die every night with you
Oh my, my, my!
Living for your every move
Oh my, my, my!
