Pavy – If She Wasn’t Engaged [Single]

Pavy’s single “If She Wasn’t Engaged,” cooked up by the Swim Team crew, really gets into the tangled web of desire and daydreams but in a way that’s more flirty and brash than heartaching and lovelorn. 

The chorus sets the stage with a simple, yet potent, declaration: “If you wasn’t engaged, it’d be a problem/ First date’s out in Cabo, that’s for starters.” This cut taps into the tempting what-ifs of a romance that can’t be. He conjures up scenes of first dates on sun-kissed beaches and meeting the family – a blend of lavish fantasy and heartfelt intentions. The hook, repeated like a mantra, keeps the listener anchored in the ballsy-but-sincere tone of the track. 

Verse one rolls in with a laid-back vibe: “Slid through the crib playing ‘Pole in My Basement’ / Off top I’m loving what your music taste is,” showing that the feelings appear to be more than one-sided. While Pavy’s line, “I’m with a woman every night, so I know when it’s different,” shines a bit of light on his experience and the spark he feels in regards to this one particular relationship. The imagery of jets and sets, combined with her “angel eyes,” creates a sharply etched scene for both Pav and the audience to sink into.

In verse two, Pavy steps into the realm of possibilities: “If it ever goes south, you know who to call.” This line is less of a lifeline and more of a promise. He goes on to daydream about even more first-class moments spent together, like “floor seats at the Laker game,” and dreams of forever, even though he knows it’s just that—a dream. The divide between his grand gestures and the cold splash of reality grounds the song in a relatable truth.

Pavy’s “If She Wasn’t Engaged” wraps up with dreams and reality checks intertwined. His mic finesse and playful yet deep storytelling sketch a picture of a love that’s elusive from an artist whose stock is rising.
